Nestled in the sun-drenched Coachella Valley with the San Jacinto Mountains as backdrop, Paradise Tiny Home Community brings resort-style atmosphere to small-space desert living. Fifteen minutes north of Palm Springs, this gated oasis pairs private landscaped tiny home rows with country-club-grade amenities—pool, mineral hot tubs, pickleball, and a modern clubhouse—for snowbirds, active adults, and remote professionals.

Planning land you own in Riverside County?

Paradise is a gated THOW/park-model land-lease resort—not the same as owning a Riverside County parcel with a permitted backyard ADU. Route into pathway tools if you are comparing both models.

Pads & tenancy snapshot

Level gravel and concrete landing pads with 50 amp utility access, off-street parking for up to two vehicles, and space for shade awnings or desert xeriscaped patios. Turnkey luxury park models plus customer-owned DMV-registered certified THOW lines on land-lease rows.

Phase 1 fully operational and occupied. Active booking inquiries for Phase 2 placements supporting turnkey inventory and pre-vetted BYO certified THOW positions. Long-term site lease rules restrict unvetted STR (Airbnb/VRBO) on primary residential rows.
