Take a weekend to relax in the hot mineral baths of the local
deserts. While Palm Springs offers all the upscale spas &
glitz you could dream about, Desert Hot Springs is a much better
deal. Ride the tram up to Mt. San Jacinto & enjoy the breathtaking
views atop the 8000 foot station. Eat lunch in the restaurant
& take a nature walk. Winter season may also see some snow
& horse rides are available in warmer months. Visit the famous
high desert area & enjoy some bizarre, but cool scenery at
Joshua Tree National Monument.
Desert Hot Springs, next door to Palm Springs, has the quaint resort of Lido Palms. This small
hotel offers only a few rooms that share a spacious courtyard with
various pool sizes & a BBQ area.
