The O'Donnell House is nestled against the mountainside above downtown Palm Springs. To get up to the venue, you'll take a short golf cart ride up a narrow road. Once there, you'll see the amazing and expansive views of the city below.

We hope you'll be as blown away by the view as we were when we first visited the site!

The O'Donnell House was originally called Ojo del Desierto and was built in 1925 as a winter home in the "California Spanish" style for Thomas and Winnifred O'Donnell.

It was recognized by the City of Palm Springs as a historical site in 1986 and 2000. In 2011, it was added to the National Register of Historic Places.
