THINGS TO DO IN THE COACHELLA VALLEY

 

Looking for something to do outside of golf?  Consider these:

 

 

The Living Desert - Palm Desert  (10 mins from hotel)

Zoo by day, holiday wonderland by night (Thanksgiving to Christmas.)  The animals are away with lights, holiday decor, and food/drink options.

 

Indian Canyons - Palm Springs  (30 - 40 mins)

A desert favorite to hike and sightsee.  Easy walking trails with amazing views of the valley and waterfalls.  There is a small fee to enter the tribal land but well worth it.

 

Aerial Tramway - Palm Springs (45 mins)

Take the rotating tram from the valley floor to the top of the snow covered mountains.  

Stay for lunch at the top-side restaurant.

 

The Nest - Indian Wells

For some nightlife and dancing (after 10pm) without the night club vibe.

 

Agua Caliente Casino - Rancho Mirage  (15 mins)

The newest and largest Vegas-style casino the area.  

 

El Paseo - Palm Desert (5 - 10 mins)

Palm Desert's "downtown" and shopping district.

Art galleries, retailers, and restaurants dot the street on both sides.

 

Become a Lobby Lizard - Marriott Desert Springs (10 mins)

Spend an evening relaxing and people watching in the grandiose lobby of the Marriott Desert Springs. 

Order dessert, coffee, and drinks to your coffee table as you watch the boats pull in and out through the enormous glass walls.
