Roadrunner Retreat - Your Private Poolside Retreat Awaits
Step into a beautifully preserved time capsule of mid‑century charm at this 1961 Meiselman Palm Springs vacation rental, a three‑bedroom, two‑bathroom retreat that blends vintage allure with modern comfort. Nestled along the picturesque Tahquitz Creek Golf Course in South Palm Springs, the home offers sweeping mountain views, iconic architectural details, and a serene setting perfect for guests seeking a stylish and memorable desert escape.
Inside, floor‑to‑ceiling windows flood the home with natural light, illuminating the original tile work, warm textures, and thoughtful design elements that celebrate the home's mid‑century roots. The primary suite sits privately on one side of the house, offering a king‑size bed, a cozy seating area, and an en‑suite bathroom featuring preserved vintage tile and a step‑in shower. On the opposite side, two guest bedrooms - one with a queen bed and the other with two twins - share a pristine hallway bathroom with its own original charm and a shower‑tub combination.
The retro kitchen is a nostalgic delight, complete with a classic pass‑through window and charming pink tile countertops that evoke the whimsy of the era. A double‑sided gas fireplace anchors the living and dining areas, creating a warm, inviting ambiance for evening cocktails, relaxed meals, or cozy nights in with family and friends.
Outside, the private backyard is pure Palm Springs magic. A sparkling pool and above‑ground hot tub invite long afternoons of lounging, while the western mountain views and golf course vistas to the east create a stunning backdrop from sunrise to sunset. Whether you're dining alfresco, savoring a refreshing drink, or simply soaking in the beauty of your surroundings, the outdoor space offers a peaceful, sun‑drenched sanctuary.
With its meticulously preserved details, modern comforts, and unbeatable location, this mid‑century oasis offers a truly unforgettable Palm Springs vacation experience - one where vintage character and contemporary ease come together in perfect harmony.

We truly enjoyed our stay at this lovely house right on the 5th tee of Tahquitz Creek Golf Course. Especially enjoyed all the outdoor seating areas. Great location. Perfect for 3 couples.
The Roadrunner Retreat lived up to all of our expectations! The interior design was very modernist/mid-century, colorful, fun and chic. True to the listing. The setting was gorgeous, heated pool, palm trees , surrounded by mountains.Our only complaint was that we couldn’t stay longer!
More plastic glassware for around the pool. K-pods for the Keurig coffee maker. Mop for cleaning. Brush for bbq.These are minor issues, loved the house
We stayed here in the beginning of February for a few days and loved it. There were 6 of us and we found the three rooms and two bathrooms to be plenty of space for us. The decor and aesthetic was perfect for this girls trip. The backdrop of the mountains and palm trees was stunning. The place has everything you need - kitchen supplies, a bar cart, bath towels, pool towels, linens, washer/dryer, etc.They even sent us some treats and had a bunch of snacks for us.Communication was excellent. We never had to wait long for an answer and all our questions were answered prior to and during our stay. We had an issue with the hot tub temperature and they sent someone right away to take a look and fix it. The place was sooo lovely. We had no complaints. I would point out though that the gold course is literally in the backyard, so the golfers passing by will see you in the pool area and even inside the place if you don't have the shades down.Overall highly recommend this place to stay. Super cute and very close to the airport, down town Palm Springs and other attractions.Thanks for an amazing stay!
