FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Are pets allowed?

Yes, pets are allowed at select homes only. Each property's pet policy is clearly listed on our website. The following pet rules apply at all pet-friendly homes:

  • No cats or other animals are allowed.
  • A maximum of two (2) dogs may be permitted with advance written approval from Casago SoCal at the time of reservation. If approved, the guest must sign a Pet Addendum and pay a non-refundable pet fee.
  • No puppies or dogs under one year of age are allowed without prior approval.
  • Per our insurance policy, potentially dangerous breeds are not permitted. These include, but are not limited to, Dalmatians, Boxers, Presa Canarios, Chow Chows, Doberman Pinschers, Malamutes, Huskies, Rottweilers, German Shepherds, Pit Bulls, Pit Bull mixes, and any dog deemed dangerous based on prior behavior.

  • All pets must be fit to travel and current on standard vaccinations.
  • Guests are fully responsible for any damage or odors caused by pets. The pet fee covers reasonable monitoring and standard cleaning only. Additional cleaning, repairs, or odor remediation will be charged to the credit card on file.
  • Excessive barking or noise that results in neighborhood complaints or law enforcement response will require the dog to be kenneled for the remainder of the stay.
  • If a pet does not match the size, age, breed, or description provided at booking, the stay will be terminated and all fees forfeited.

If you have questions about a specific home's pet policy, please ask your reservations agent at booking.

Can I extend my reservation?

Absolutely. If the dates are available, we'd love to have you stay longer — either before or after your scheduled visit. Call our reservations team at (866) 365-2221 to check availability and rates.

Can we host a party or event?

No. Parties, large gatherings, and events are not permitted at any Casago SoCal property.

All guests must comply with local noise ordinances and the rules of the city in which the property is located. For example, the City of Palm Springs Good Neighbor Brochure is displayed at every Palm Springs home and outlines the local ordinances in detail. For questions, contact reservations at (866) 365-2221.

Yes. Every Casago SoCal home includes high-speed internet and Wi-Fi.

Do all homes have central air conditioning and heating?

What should I pack for the Coachella Valley?

The Coachella Valley enjoys mild winters with daytime temperatures averaging around 70°F and warm-to-hot summers that can climb well into the 100s. If you're visiting between November and March, pack layers — sweaters and a light waterproof jacket are smart for cooler evenings.

A small umbrella or shade hat is helpful any time of year for outdoor activities.

Why choose a Casago SoCal home over a hotel?

Honestly, we think the better question is the other way around: why would anyone trade the space, privacy, and freedom of a private home for a single hotel room?

A vacation rental is often the more affordable choice for families and groups, and the experience is on a different level entirely. Every Casago SoCal home is fully furnished and decorated to a high standard, equipped with linens, bath and pool towels, full kitchen setup, televisions, and a private pool. Many homes include additional features like spas, fire pits, pool tables, ping pong, bocce ball, cornhole, and putting greens.

Top reasons our guests choose Casago SoCal:

  • More space and privacy at a lower per-square-foot cost than a comparable resort.
  • Splitting the home with friends or family beats hotel per-night pricing.
  • Everyone stays under one roof — no scattered floors, no separate buildings.
  • Real living and dining rooms beat ten people piled on a hotel bed.
  • A private backyard, pool, and BBQ — yours alone for the entire stay.
  • A fully equipped kitchen for cooking and entertaining at home.
  • A full-size fridge and freezer for groceries, snacks, and cold drinks.
  • In-home washer and dryer means lighter packing and fewer laundry runs.
  • 24/7 local support if anything comes up during your stay.
  • Better locations than most hotels — in the heart of the neighborhoods you actually want to be in.

If you've never spent a vacation in a private rental home, you're in for a treat. Casago SoCal represents thoughtfully selected properties across Southern California — from the Coachella Valley and High Desert to Idyllwild and Temecula — at price points to suit nearly every budget.
