Lots of equestrian events in the Coachella Valley
Coachella Valley Fitness & Sports..
We are an active, physically fit group of desert dwellers for the most part. I think it’s because of our “indoor/outdoor” living we are lucky enough to experience fitness most of the year. There are seasonal outings of course, like the HITS horseshow, and International Polo Games, but it’s really just the variety of daily “things to do” for your wellness that brings people of all ages to our beautiful Coachella Valley.

Coachella Music Festival grounds are larger and even grander!
Locals and the Music Festival!! As with all relationships,there is a yin and a yang to the three weekends of the Coachella Music Festivals. The first two bring in current superstars, future hopefuls, and recent New Musical discoveries in the Coachella Music Festival. The only difference this season was the SIZE of the Festival..the city approved a newly enhanced limit of 125,000 people. The grounds themselves were larger too. All this was FANTASTIC! But…increased traffic, increased litter, long waits, detours to stay away from the busy streets..some inconveniences for us locals.

PGA West is a popular destination for our Music Festival attendees
Coachella Music Festival Lease Properties: One of the positives of having the HUGE success of the Coachella Music Festivals, is the increased demand for Leases. Not all Music Festival requested Lease properties are “Luxury”. Meaning simply that not everyone has rich tastes. There are many, many demands for people visiting that are quite happy with a small condo at Indian Palms Country Club, and many people actually prefer a regular place at PGA West. So..”Luxury” can mean a different type of Music Festival experience to each visitor to our beautiful Coachella Valley. If you’re thinking of purchasing an investment property, let me set up a tour for you! 760-285-3578.

Music Festivals bring fans & $ to Indio, CA.

Tickets for the 2016 Coachella Music and Arts Festival sold out in less than an hour.
