Riverside County has progressed to the Orange level so we can now open the pools. We will be removing the signs and can now have more than one household in the pool area.

Please continue to observe the social distance guidelines and wear a mask if you feel more comfortable.

The Fitness Center is now open for restricted use. In order to comply with county regulations, only one household at at time can use the Fitness Center. We have arranged to use the TownSq application for booking one hour time slots. TownSq can be accessed on the web or through a phone or tablet app. If you don't already have an account, please contact Desert Resort Management. 


We have included step by step instructions for making a booking below. You can make reservations up to two days in advance. Please do not make more than one booking per day.

Please also review the rules and terms of use below, and follow the rules and safety guidelines for everybody's safety.

Supplies are provided for cleaning the equipment before and after each use.

Thank you for your patience and understanding during this challenging time.

Linda Kluy,
Board President

Board of Directors

The Pickleball Committee has voted to change the mask and guest policy as follows:

Beginning immediately, masks will no longer be required for play.  They will, however, continue to be mandatory in the waiting area next to the courts. As before, people are asked to play only with others with whom they feel comfortable and safe.    

Guests may now play on our courts. Reservations for groups, including off-site guests, may be made after 6:00 PM on the night before the reservation is requested. Therefore residents should be certain to make their court reservations before 6:00 the night before they want to play. Remember that courts can now be booked five days in advance.
