Spa City

The first homesteader in the area that is now Desert Hot Springs was a man by the name of Cabot Yerxa. Yerxa discovered hot water on what he named Miracle Hill and built an adobe by hand here over a span of more than 20 years. You too can enjoy the hot springs like Yerxa without all that time-consuming adobe making (just be sure to visit Cabot's Pueblo Museum for a tour.) Desert Hot Springs, founded in 1941 by L.W. Coffee and named for the area’s hot springs, has grown into a bustling community and center for tourism. Unlike the tourists visiting for the area’s spas, you can enjoy the splendor that is Desert Hot Springs year-round. Rent one of DHS’s great apartments and you’ll know the satisfaction that the city’s more than 25,000 people feel every day. The fact that Desert Hot Springs’ population was 16,582 as of the 2000 census shows that people are clamoring to live here. Why not rent an apartment in Spa City, visit a spa, and find out what all the fuss is about? Get here while the water’s hot.

Friendly Community

You’re sure to meet some laid-back, friendly people in Hot Springs – soothing spring waters will do that to you. There’s no better way to make friends with your new neighbors than to attend a community event. Who says you need snow and freezing cold temperatures to celebrate the holidays? Be sure to attend the annual holiday parade, the longest running parade in Coachella Valley. For more community fun, check out the annual Festival of the Waters. Enjoy food, entertainment, art and crafts, and more while getting to know your new neighbors. Speaking of arts and crafts, be sure to attend the Chamber of Commerce Arts and Crafts Fair. The Chamber of Commerce hosts numerous events throughout the year including a chili cook-off, bingo, desert hoedown, various dinners, and much more. The Community Center, Public Library, and Senior Center are also great places to meet Desert Hot Springs residents and have some fun. Whether you’re in the mood for relaxing in hot springs or eating hot chili, Hot Springs has what you’re looking for. Doing both at the same time, however, is not suggested.

Hot Springs and Hot Food

Relaxing in a spa all day, you’re going to get hungry. If you’re looking to pamper your stomach, Desert Hot Springs has numerous restaurants to choose from no matter what type of food you enjoy. Visit South of the Border for some truly authentic Mexican cuisine. Don’t forget to finish your meal with a slice of fried cheesecake. More in the mood for Italian? Visit Miracle Springs Resort & Spa and stop by The Capri Restaurant for a plate of chicken marsala. Head over to Kam Lun Chinese Restaurant and try the Mongolian beef. These are just a few of the great restaurants to choose from should you rent one of Desert Hot Spring’s fantastic apartments. Come for the hot springs, stay for the hot tamales.
