The Lodge at Rancho Mirage

Perpetually ranking as a Mobil Four Star and AAA Four Diamond Award winning resort, the Lodge has recently been designated as the top resort in the Palm Springs Area by the Zagat Survey. 

Perched 650 feet above the Coachella Valley, the Lodge shares its spacious plateau with native Bighorn Sheep, for whom the land provides a natural preserve. 

In fact, guests often discover these marvelous creatures strolling along the croquet lawn. 

Nevertheless, a short drive down a winding road leads to all the riches of culture and civilization, including the finest shops, restaurants, golf courses and other forms of entertainment and recreation that Palm Springs, Palm Desert, Indian Wells and Rancho Mirage can provide.

Of course, once you arrive, you may never want to leave the Lodge.  French doors and private terraces and balconies on all the resort’s 240 accommodations feature magnificent, panoramic views of mountains and valley. 

Interiors are highlighted by irresistible marble baths, Frette bathrobes, towels and bed linens. 

The Gerald R. Ford Presidential Suite, named after one of the valley’s favorite residents, commands unsurpassed views, spacious living room and formal dining room with baby grand piano, and master bath with Jacuzzi tub.

The world class Avanyu Spa offers more than 30 spa treatments, including the premiere outdoor cabana massage, which fuses the latest wisdom in spa therapy with the serene splendor of the landscape.

And while grownups indulge themselves at the spa, or pursue interests elsewhere at the resort, counselors at Camp Little Bighorn entertain the kids with delectable on-site activities and excursions.

Guests who visit the Fitness Center will enjoy an invigorating workout, yoga, Pilates, or tai chi classes. Water aerobics in the pool, cradled by mountains and overlooking the valley provides a dreamy workout. While racquet fans can participate in clinics and compete on eight spotless and well-lit courts at the Tennis Center; and golfers claim preferred tee times at nearby Mission Hills Country Club.

And lest we forget, the classic sound of wooden mallets against wooden balls wafts from the Croquet Lawn. This sweeping expanse of green, enhanced by lush foliage and year round blossoms, also provides a majestic environment for special events, from weddings to birthday parties and cool, seductive soirees under the stars.

Offering all the possibilities of indoor/outdoor entertaining, many function rooms (among them the 8,400-square-foot ballroom) open on to lavish patios overlooking mountainside, pool and city lights below.

Visitors may take breakfast on the Croquet Lawn, lunch at the Tennis Center, and cocktails poolside or in the Lobby Lounge - a handsome and spacious retreat, featuring deep mahogany woodwork and access to a moonlit terrace with glowing fire pits and a breathtaking valley view.

The Café specializes in light California cuisine, highlighted on Sunday morning with a renowned champagne and caviar brunch. The Lodge also features the valley’s only cliff-side restaurant, The Mirada, offering a more casual setting for savoring local flavors under the infinite beauty of desert sky.
