Article reprinted from The Desert Sun

If you're looking for a home or condo in guard-gated community around a famous golf course at a lower per square-foot price than in most parts of the desert, drive east of Palm Desert to Bermuda Dunes Country Club.  Within the walls of the country club is nearly a square mile of about 1,200 homes in a mix of architectural styles, all built between 1960 and now, some of them in separate gated enclaves of their own.

 

Residents here like the fact that this is not "a cookie-cutter community" and boast that the 29-hole golf course has been the home of the Bob Hope Classic since the tournament's debut in 1960.  And it's a great place for children," says a local realtor.  For the complete article...CLICK HERE!
