About this house rental
Stay in this private, historic, mid-century modern case study steel home by architect Donald Wexler. Only 7 of these homes exist. Vacation like a celebrity, experience the Hollywood side of Palm Springs in the former residence of Spencer Tracy (bought by Katharine Hepburn in the 60s) with the racquet club only a stone's throw away. Sinatra is said to have cooked in the kitchen. Play guitar, splash in the pool, dine under the olive trees, stargaze by the fire pit. Minutes to everything.
Beautiful landmarked 1963 Wexler case study mid-century modern home. GORGEOUS. PRIVATE. Preserved original design and style. Washer/Dryer. Pool. Cable TV/Wifi/NETFLIX. 7 minutes to downtown.
BBQ / eat poolside. Enjoy the amazing mountain view. SUN DRENCHED. Original Palm Springs experience.
Furnished with love. From the comfy Eames chair to the Platner coffee table. Bright and cheery. 2 bedrooms look out on pool. Float the afternoon away!
This is an original "Case-Study" home for modernism buffs.
This landmarked Wexler home, built in 1963 and I believe these are the only case study homes in Palm Springs. For anyone who appreciates genuine mid-century modern aesthetic, this is a rare gem.
Comfy Queen beds. Pool heated at $60/day.
Close to the Palm Springs Areal Tramway, you must see.
(Recent review) Hi Doug - I wanted you to know how much we LOVED our stay in your exquisite home. The architecture was stunning and the interiors beautifully designed. I had toured the Wexler homes during Wexler Weekend a few years ago and I had admired them but it is a complete treat to be able to live in a perfectly designed environment for a few days rather than just racing through on a house tour. Having an opportunity to slow down and allow my eye to take in all of the clever details of Don Wexler's design, to enjoy the interiors and of course take in the grandeur of the magnificent mountains was great for the soul. Thank you for sharing your home. It was a true pleasure and I am already checking the calendar to see when we can book our next stay. xo Beverlee
REVIEW from Brian:
Fantastic place, historical architecture and faultless service, hope one day the have the opportunity to stay at Doug's house again. If you have any interest in mid-century architecture and style this is the place to stay!
Relaxing. Chill. And wonderful. Lots to do in Palm Springs. Hiking, Biking, Tennis, Golf and many many other wonderful places to go. Don't miss Joshua Tree National Park. Don't miss the mountains and the Aerial Tramway. Thank you!

Great family stay! Was extremely windy (like gale force winds :/ ) during our stay so we didn’t get to totally enjoy the pool, but the house was really cool and totally suited our needs It’s a Mid-Century gem, so if you like that sort of thing, you’ll love it!

We liked the house especially the yard, it may actually be bigger than the inside. House is tastefully decorated and uncluttered. I have neck and back issues but found beds very comfortable to sleep in. The pool was excellent. The owner and property manager were very responsive. The only downside was the strong wind which I think is common in that part of town and in Palm Springs area but I think we had it stronger than in some areas. But it is nature and nothing can be done about.

After 13 months of the walls closing in due to COVID, walking through the front door was like a great exhale. The house is peaceful and light and airy. The design aesthetic delivers a mid-century modern sensibility without pretentiousness. The owner and property manager were communicative and conscientious. Would we return? In a heartbeat.

Absolutely beautiful property -- perfect for a family vacation. We paid for the pool to be heated all week, which was a must in March. There was noise from the nearby roadway a block over, but for the most part a very quiet and peaceful neighborhood. For architecture it was perfect, being one of the 5 or 6 "model" homes of Wexler along that stretch. But there is great "mid century modern" homes throughout the neighborhood, so great for walks. The decor is fun and simple, the security system really cool, and the space would be great for a few families. It was more than a walk to downtown for us, but only a few minutes to drive. Check in was super easy, and instructions were super clear. Ease of in and out was great. All the bedrooms with large sliding glass doors out to a great yard.
