Lucy I'm Home - Retro Chic Mid-Mod Home!

P.S. City ID #2944 | Primary renter must be at least 25 years of age to rent (Proof of age required)

This retro chic vacation home is located in Tahquitz River Estates, a short walk to trendy South Palm Springs. The property owners love Palm Springs and 1950s architecture and design, and their 1951 easy hipster pad blends vintage styling with modern touches to create a cool, comfortable and private Palm Springs escape. There is a gated carport, but no garage parking at this home. Free Universal E/V Charger (Bring Your Own Cord). Beds: Q,Q,Q/Q

The home’s architectural pedigree includes iconic concrete floors, stacked stone features and post and beam ceilings. The original floor to ceiling windows have been replaced with fabulous moving walls of glass by Fleetwood – blurring the lines between indoor and outdoor living. Modern kitchen and baths, high-speed internet service, and four smart flat-screen televisions.

OUTDOOR LIVING SPACES
This home has a happy, comfortable vacation vibe. The backyard, with spectacular mountain views, is central to the experience: completely walled for privacy and well laid out for sundrenched days and long evenings under the stars. There is a heated in-ground pool with an integrated waterfall spa from which to enjoy the views. You’ll also find alfresco dining for eight, a more intimate dining space for two or three, and an outdoor living room with a fire pit for cool desert evenings. A bed of palm trees and desert flora center the space, and an outdoor shower by an olive tree adds to the charm. Cool architectural elements help make this space the quintessential hang-out spot --- mid-century block work, a burbling fountain and neat lighting. You’re going to love it. Charge your car at no cost using the EV charging port that is located in the carport. The charger is a NEMA 6-50R, rated at 50 amps on a 240v 50 amp GFCI breaker. Must bring own adapter and cord in order to use.

** The pool will be heated upon request with an additional service fee. Please let us know if you'd like to heat the pool so we can ensure it is heated before your arrival. If you home has a spa or hot tub, heating the spa is included with your rental at no extra cost **

** Please Note: 1. This fee is not included in the quoted price on some booking platforms. 2. Pool heating may be added in minimum of 3 day blocks per request **

INDOOR LIVING SPACES
Modern, well-equipped kitchen with stainless steel appliances. Open-concept living/dining room with stacked-stone fireplace, a flat-screen TV, and a cool mix of retro and new furniture that captures the swank Palm Springs vibe. Movable glass walls along the back of the house open to stunning mountain views and a very private backyard paradise. Spin some cool jazz on the record player and shake up some martinis; the home’s homage to Lucille Ball can be found down the hallway to the bedrooms.

** The term "Pets Allowed” or “Pets Accepted" at an ACME House Company vacation rental means that we welcome dogs only. No other pets are allowed. **

SLEEPING QUARTERS
All three bedrooms feature flat screen televisions, hotel-quality mattresses and bedding, and ample closet space. Bedroom 1 has a queen-sized bed, a sitting area, a desk, and direct pool access. It shares a large bath with a generous walk-in shower with roomy Bedroom 2, which has a queen-sized bed and a desk. Bedroom 3 has two queen-sized beds, as well as a private patio for morning coffee or a pleasant work call, and has direct access to a hallway bath with tub and shower. Each bedroom has a style of its own, all fitting into the ‘50s vibe.

THE LOCATION
This property is centrally located in the Tahquitz River Estates neighborhood, which sits between bustling Downtown and the nightclubs, bars, and restaurants of the South Palm Springs Business District. Burger joints, sandwich shops, and grocery stores are all nearby. Tahquitz Creek Trail offers great running and dog-walking just around the corner. Also nearby is Prescott Preserve, a large natural park with easy walking and biking paths.

The vibe of this home is very California… very Palm Springs. The owners have created a comfortable, relaxing getaway space that honors the mid-century pedigree of the home but meets the needs of how we live today.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and a balcony or patio, and there's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Guests can expect to find a TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a private pool, a washing machine, and a private yard.

'Lucy was very Welcoming'!

We were dazzled by the decor in the Lucy House. We had had a very long day a late check-in (1 or 2 am ) and the house managers had turned all the lights on to welcome us.That was a great touch! The Pool & Spa were fabulous. The grill/Bar-B-Q worked great and was clean. There was fresh tasty coffee in the kitchen for us to make with all the dishes ,glasses and cooking accessories one could ever need. The house has to be seen to be appreciated. Great landscaping and lighting. The only reason I didn't give the house 5 stars across the board is that it sits on the corner of a very busy,noisy street.

Not exactly relaxing

The noise factor unbeknownst to us was a huge factor in our disappointment during our stay. The location being on a busy corner of a street felt as if cars, trucks and ambulance drivers were right along the bedroom. In addition we had a huge cockroach in our room another day the spa wasn't working and when we checked in there was no coffee which is fine if we knew in advance we could of prepared for that. It has been our experience in most if not all of our VRBO homes we stayed in there's always been coffee. Again not a big deal but you asked for a detailed review thus it is what it is.

This was my first time using Vrbo and I had heard horror stories about different properties so I didn’t know what to expect. I will tell you that the pictures of this property do not do it justice, the house is lovely, the decor stunning, the pool sparkling and, the management company stellar.. I look forward to booking this house again! Thank you for a wonderful reprieve from life.

Fantastic back yard

House was spotless, beds were comfortable and the back yard was incredible. Beautiful view, firepit, pool and hot tub. And multiple gathering spots. Really charming. The floor plan is odd and the nicer bedroom is not consider the master because it doesn't attach to a bathroom. We worked it out but it's odd. Also, one side of the house is located on a Main Street so you hear traffic noice day and night. Not as peaceful in the backyard and a problem for light sleepers. Kitchen was small and not well stocked for cooking. Still, overall a very enjoyable experience.

Something for Everyone

Our group included ages 8 thru 75, including 4 daytime guests. The home is furnished with interesting decor and large bedrooms. The kitchen is well equipped and has large refrigerator. The blender does need to be replaced though. The outdoor area is large with many seating areas and room to spread out. A very nice neighborhood with a market and restaurants nearby. We had a very enjoyable 5 day stay.

Perfection

My husband and I stayed at this house for his 40th birthday. The house is exactly as advertised, if not better. You can tell that the owners put in a lot of effort to make this house a special place to stay. One minor suggestion would be to put darker curtains in the bedrooms. Otherwise - perfection. We will be coming back!

Incredible outdoor space

This property is awesome, we loved our time here. The outdoor space is incredible. We felt like we had a hotel to ourselves. Only possible improvements is that the Internet doesn’t work in the living room, because the house is near an intersection you hear street noise at night, and the air conditioning is loud! But everything else is perfect and we will for sure be back for another stay. Thank you PS!!!

Wish it was my home and not Lucy’s

The Lucy I’m Home house was a fabulous house and a great place to stay for a weeks vacation, albeit some aspects of the design were a little dated and confused in style. The AC was not as effective as we had expected with reliance on ceiling fans in the bedrooms, which also had small beds for the size of rooms. The large outside space was fantastic with various seating areas for drinking, dinning as well as cooking topped off by a big pool and spa area. The ACME team were great in hosting us too. Definitely stay there again.
