The Space:

Welcome to Dave’s Place, a beautifully appointed, private casita designed as a high-end desert sanctuary. Stepping through the front door, you are greeted by an open-concept great room that seamlessly combines a living room, a dining space, and a fully equipped chef's kitchen. This bright, welcoming main room features a smart TV and a premium convertible sofa, making it the perfect hub for relaxing and dining. Down the hall lies a charming, dedicated coffee nook—ideally placed for brewing your morning cup just steps outside the private master bedroom, which features a luxurious king-size bed.



Thoughtful amenities ensure a seamless, self-contained stay. The full bathroom is conveniently located off the main living spaces rather than ensuite, making it easily accessible for everyone. A dedicated laundry closet is also tucked away for your convenience. While large windows frame stunning desert views from almost every room, the front porch extends your living space outdoors, offering an ideal spot to fire up the BBQ grill, relax in the seating area, and take in the sweeping, desert horizon.



Guest Access:

Guests have private access to the casita and their own dedicated parking area as well the desert grounds that surround the property.
