S A “MECCA” FOR RVERS, Southern California is one of the ultimate destinations for snowbird and tourist RVers from across Canada, the US and Europe.
On a winter swing through California in early 2011, our Newmar Ventana rolled into Emerald Desert RV Resort in Palm Desert, California, in search of a six-week RV adventure. What we discovered was classic desert living, complete with sunny weather, palm trees, gardens, flowers galore and breath-taking beauty. Suddenly the drive from the East coast was worth every day on the road to get there. While Southern California offers many affordable
RVing opportunities during the winter months, the Emerald Desert RV Resort, located in the Coachella Valley, provides numerous attractions, including easy access to San Diego and Los Angeles. Te first advantage is the inexhaustible beauty and
elegance of the area, including LaQuinta, Palm Desert, Palm Springs, and Rancho Mirage. For miles along the boulevards and avenues are arrays of stately palm trees, flourishing shrubs, gardens and beautiful flowers against a background of Mt. San Jacinto and the Desert Shadow Mountains. Te quality of the RVing experience is the second
advantage. As the winter home to thousands of guests, RVers come together in celebration of sunshine and warm desert weather. Here is a place to spend most days outside of the RV in heart-healthy activities including walking, hiking, biking, exercising, playing golf, swimming and visiting the multitude of sites and event venues in the Palm Springs area. Te third advantage is learning about new ways to
improve our RV experience. Tis includes RV seminars and workshops with focus on maintenance, repairs and service. Unless you attend a big RV rally, you may never learn important things about battery care, fluid changing, tires and brakes, except through direct experience. As discerning RVers, we expect facilities to have
“curb appeal”; maintain high standards including clean and well-maintained facilities, as well as dependable WI- FI power/water/sewer/cable access. Emerald Desert RV Resort makes a point to “measure up” to and exceed this standard. On arrival we received the Emerald Desert RV Resort
Activities Calendar with activities for just about every day of every month! We were genuinely impressed with the content of the events – it was just as though we were staying at a 5-Star Resort on the Riviera, or a cruise ship. Southern California provides a variety of climates;
from the warm, lower desert area of the Coachella Valley to the cool, higher elevations on Mount San Jacinto. So
