This was a perfect house for my kids and grandkids. the outdoor space and view is lovely---we ate our meals out there mostly. Conveniently located near Desert Hot Springs and stores, etc. yet it feels secluded. It's a fun-funky house at a great price. We'll probably stay again.

The host and amenities were great, but it was the house itself that was so wonderful. We saw so many birds (hummingbirds, finches, doves, a really cool roadrunner) and bunnies and even a couple of coyotes hanging out on couch in the morning looking out the window. The house is halfway between high desert hiking (Morongo, Pioneertown, Joshua tree, 29 Palms…)and Palm Springs (the art museum was super, Indian Wells, Whitewater canyon) and Palm Desert offers numerous mineral hot springs offering day passes. And then there is the house, which is sort of magical all by itself. Lovely. Thank you.

The house is beautiful… However there is mold. In the very front utility closet. And the owner is in denial. You can smell it in the air vents. And when I have addressed it with the owner she says I am lying. I have pictures and I have submitted them. Mold causes respiratory infections, sure as pneumonia and other dangerous health conditions. Trying to come to a resolution.
Mold, she said it’s a stain. There’s a shower directly behind this closet.

Amazing & Unique desert house

What a special place! We loved the architecture, collectibles, cactus garden, and peacefulness. We made a big Thanksgiving feast here, and it was a perfect setting and the (round) kitchen, though cosy, had everything necessary included great oven and induction cooktop. Then we enjoyed a few quieter days and it was an equally wonderful place to unwind. The views of the sunrises, sunsets, and lively garden are amazing. A few practical notes: The sleeping areas include 2 private bedrooms, a huge "camping" room with several beds and more mattresses, and another listed bedroom with 2 twins that is actually the passageway into the bunk room. There is no dishwasher. One suggestion - add a fire pit on the beautiful front terrace! Thanks much for sharing your amazing home!

A Lovely Quiet Stay

This is our second girls trip to the round house and we simply love it here. There is lots of space, so you can either nap in your room while watching the critters outside or you can do puzzles in the main room gazing through the panoramic window. Super relaxing. (Also if you have time, hit a hot springs spa and the Cabot Pueblo Museum.)

Fun place that's a little kooky

Rolling up to this place, I was worried I was lost. It's pretty far north of Palm Springs proper (25 minutes), it's on a dirt road in a quasi-suburban neighborhood, and the house is set pretty far back from the road. But once we found it and got inside, the kids were pumped. While somewhat dated, the home has lots of space and interesting/weird details that make it fun. The furniture is mod and eclectic, as is the decor (and these are good things). Some of the spaces are cramped - and it was hard to figure out how to use the cook top - but the A/C and fans worked great and the beds were comfortable. Everyone loved the wildlife that's right out the door - the pheasants were a big hit. The adults loved the nice outdoor space and the kids loved the huge bedroom with beds for everyone. And the home design is surprisingly interesting - I kept noticing little details even after a couple of days. If I had to complain, we got tired of bumping into things in the smaller bathroom, and we found some bugs inside. But nothing we couldn't handle, and travel is an adventure. Suffice to say, if you're looking for a big and fun/kooky place not too far from Palm Springs, you found it.

Relaxing Retreat

My family loved our stay! The glass house was so unique and spacious- plenty of room for the kids to relax in their own space with our down time. The views were amazing and we loved walking up every morning to look for the wildlife in the yard. The hosts were friendly and accommodating. This was the perfect location for our travel plans!

Pros / Cons

Nice house , cool design and pleasant outdoor space . Nice place to relax and good vibes . BUT we were NOT the only ones enjoying the house … we would find ROACHES in the restroom , dead and alive ( mostly live ones , 4-6 a day) , at least you had company whilst showering or doing your business!!! One of the shower drains also did not drain , leaving an ankle deep flood in the shower with long female hair coming out of the drain later ( we were 7 guys with short hair ) . The host was almost non existent, with no ability to contact them whether it be text or phone . It’s a very nice house but a lot of other stuff unfortunately overshadowed the good parts .

Fun and relaxing!

This house has it all! Equipped with everything you’ll ever need, great views, and an all around Fun house! A great bonus part of the experience was just exploring the inside of the house. Many quirky features due to the design, but that made it all the more enjoyable. Jane is an excellent host and very communicative. She lets you enjoy your visit, but is available if you have any questions. Instructions were very clear. Neighborhood was very quiet and no one bothered us.

The beautiful unique home is very well equiped wiith everything you need. The location is very convenient since it’s close to Palm Prings as well as Joshua Tree National Park.

Loved coffee in the morning and wine in the evening enjoying spectacular mountain view and house’s desert landscape! Filled with hummingbirds, road runners, doves, rabbits and the occasional coyote (very shy). Very cool vibe in this authentic mid century modern round house with glass from floor to ceiling in living area and mid century furniture and light fixtures. Great value could use a restoration to really make it shine.

Delight in Beautiful Cactus Garden and Glass House Architecture

What a unique house to stay in. It was extraordinary to be in the round glass house and see the beautiful cactus gardens surrounding the house. The front yard was magnificent with comfortable chairs and the beautiful wooden table and chairs. The woodwork and aesthetic choices throughout the house were magnificent. The kitchen was extremely well stocked and some of the best labeling I have ever seen. We loved being there and would love to come again. Only one suggestion, we arrived late at night and it would be helpful to know that there is a big Saguaro cactus right out front that you can see real well at night. Great house. Lovely experience.

The round house in Desert Hot Springs

We had a small family gathering here after attending our son’s recent wedding in Palm Springs. This home and property was perfect for us and well located between Palm Springs and Joshua Tree National Park. We felt like we were staying in a friend’s home and loved the design, tidyness and views. There are too many details to describe, but we agree with all the other positive reviews. It is a well built home with a very strong 60s vibe. The kitchen is well equipped and all drawers and cupboards were labelled. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here.

Wonderful Place to Stay, Especially for Group/Family

We truly enjoyed our stay at the Round House. The main feature is its approximate 42' of continuous floor-to-ceiling windows that spans the living room and overlooks the nice, desert landscaped yard. There was just the two of us, so really didn't take advantage of the home's numerous rooms. By the way, since the house is round, some of the rooms are pie-shaped as was the master BR. It would be a great place for a family, or two couples, or more. The house appears to have been built in the 50's or 60's, and was probably quite the place in its time. Although a bit weather-worn outside, it is very comfortable and has all the amenities you need, including a nice garage that fits one vehicle comfortably. The house is in Desert Springs which is about a half-hour away from Palm Springs, Palm Desert, etc. But that is probably why we got it for the price we did. However, it is that much closer to Joshua Nat'l Park. Please note: the instructions for entering the house are a bit confusing. As far as we could tell, there is NOT an active alarm system one needs to disarm upon entering. Simply a lock box with the keys you need to come and go.

Desert hide-away and architectural throwback

The Glass House is built around a circular kitchen, which was well stocked and legibly labelled. The panoramic views from the open living area featured desert specimens and local wildlife. The house was comfortable enough for a few days stay. The temperatures the week of our visit peaked at 117 F, so we were glad the air conditioning kept the house comfortable without issue.
