You gotta be kidding!
Each to his own. I'll agree that the entrance is landscaped beautifully. In my opinion, that's the crux of it!
Tired and worn out after a long drive, we entered a narrow entrance parking in front of the registration area which is not marked.
We were greeted by two poorly English speaking women that handed us a map,told us to find a site and come back to register. Never mind that our fiver and tow vehicle is 62 feet long. We had difficulty manovering the narrow streets. We looked at 10 sites. Although they were deep enough to accomodate the fiver, there wasn't any place to park our HDT semi. We left and went down the road to Calienta RV Resort who gave us a better weekly rate. Perhaps the park is good for RV folks with smaller rigs.
Quirky Little Park in the Desert
This is a cute and quirky little park. It's in a bit of an "odd-ball" location being not quite next to Palm Springs or Joshua Tree, but ~30 mins from each. This is definitely a desert park with dirt pads and cactus landscaping, but they do a nice job of it. Also, half the park is permanent mobile homes. The absolute best part -> 4 hot mineral pools which you can use for free on-site, and a really nice pool area. That's probably the one reason we'd come back here. We went for 2-3 lovely mineral dips each day and then explored the surrounding area by car during the day. Weekly and monthly rates are worth looking at compared to the daily rate. Overall, we liked it.

sam's family spa resort
This park is in Desert Hot Springs, about 7 miles north of Palm Springs. It's definately a desert environment (not like Palm Springs, with an absurd display of grass), but Sam's does a really great job with their mineral spring baths and swimming pool area. The central area is beautifully landscaped with palm trees, grassy picnic areas, and a pond stocked with fish and lots of birds. Sites are very spacious, but only a few have much privacy. Decent proximity to Palm Springs, and Joshua Tree National Park.
