Our Green Efforts
Going Green
...our ongoing effort to leave a more sustainable planet in the future...
Southern California is at the forefront of renewable energy, yet drought and extreme temperatures challenge Coachella Valley's utilities. Since acquiring our home in Rancho Mirage, we've committed to sustainability. Our research focuses on creating an conscious experience, knowing that even a small vacation rental business can contribute. Scroll to see our enhancements.
Solar Panels & EV Charging
With 26 panels installed in 2020, we are capturing all the extra hours of sunshine and turning it into energy, every day. You may not be able to see the solar panels, but rest assured they are up on the roof. Looking to rent a car for your trip? Consider renting an EV and keep yourself charged up with the ChargePoint charger, located in the garage, for all those day trips around the desert.
NEW HVAC System w/ smart Thermostat
Our new HVAC system features a multi-speed fan for efficient cooling, even on extreme 115+ degree days. The smart thermostat automatically adjusts the temperature if a door or window is open for over 30 minutes, restoring the desired temperature closed.
Artificial Turf
Did you know that grass is the single largest irrigated agricultural "crop" in the United States? After hearing this in August 2022, we joined the City of Rancho Mirage, CA and their initiative to work towards eliminating all real grass turf in exchange for desert landscape options. We opted to go with a pet friendly artificial turf. So far, Rancho Mirage has eliminated over 1 million sq. ft of real grass around the city.
Trash collection including composting
The City of Rancho Mirage, CA is now participating in the composting of food wastes. This new service has been added to the incredible recycling program already in place. More information will be provided prior to your arrival with us.
