Wake up to glorious sunshine in this mid-century villa and get ready to explore. Whip up a quick coffee and some snacks for the hike, then step out to explore the nearby Bear Creek Trail. When you arrive home to this laid-back villa, you can kick your feet up in the living room or plunge into the pool to cool down. There’s a fitted barbecue outside to refuel with some tasty grilled meals and a well-equipped kitchen inside to make all those extra side dishes. As night falls, mix a cocktail at the bar cart and settle down to stream a movie or light the fire bowl in the yard for an atmospheric evening. After a rainfall shower that is the envy of any hiker, snuggle into one of the king or queen-sized beds and rest easy for the night. For a change of scenery, take the I-10 towards Palm Springs to discover some old-school Hollywood glamour mixed with some new-age wellness – it's around twenty-five miles away.
