private homes and estates in the desert. Individually owned, each (MCR)
property reflects the tastes of its owners.
Each is equipped with basic housekeeping items and complies with MCR's
Minimum Furnishings Requirements (see Furnishings & Equipment).
Every effort has been made to assure that our descriptions of each
property are accurate, however, MCR cannot be held responsible for
possible errors in printing, changes made by owners in furnishings
or equipment, or matters that are beyond our control.
Our properties are well maintained and clean, however, just like your

to correct any problems you might experience in a timely manner, however,
refunds cannot be made due to mechanical failure of equipment.

Early Check-In
During the prime rental season, it is impossible in most cases to
grant early check-in requests. Because of the large number of properties
and the distance between them, our housekeeping staff needs every minute
of the 10:00am to 2:00pm window to ensure the cleanliness of your vacation
property.

entry. It's a large job and everyone does their best to get you into
a clean and inviting home. We will make every effort to insure that
your property is ready for occupancy between 2:00pm and 5:00pm.
