Lighted Tennis Courts and Weekly Tennis Clinics
Improve your game with the help of a tennis pro, or just have fun and get to know people. Palm Springs/Palm Desert has attracted a number of world class tennis tournaments such as the ATP Challenger/Newsweek Champions Cup, State Farm Evert Cup Tournament, Snackwell's Mission Hills Senior Tennis Tournament and the State Farm/WTA Challenger Series. 

Pools and Spas
Our Sparkling pools and spas will bring you back to life after a game of tennis or golf. Visit with friends pool side or lie back and relax in a spa. Do these things at dusk, watching mountain shadows change from pink to dusty blue to violet.
