Our private and exclusive ranch can accommodate small groups to 1000 guests. All sites have spectacular views of the Coachella Valley from the Salton Sea to the Tram climbing Mt. San Jacinto, have excellent bus access, and behind each camp are miles of trails for exploration by jeep, hike or bike.

Evening events range from a simple Desert Discovery BBQ, Wild West Hoe Down or Native American Heritage Evenings to outrageous theme parties. Wonderful food and beverage and entertainment complete the experience of a lifetime!
CAHUILLA INDIAN VILLAGE
 Our replica of an ancient Indian Village provides a magnificent backdrop of mountains uplifted by Earth movements along the San Andreas Fault. Made by the same techniques used by the Cahuilla Indians 2000 years ago, the village is complemented by sparkling pools, a running stream bubbling from the fault line, and views of a natural palm oasis and city lights. This village is perfect for small groups, and can also accommodate groups of up to 400 guests. The lower level offers a covered eating area for up to 100 guests and a small stage, and an open area that will accommodate 200 additional guests for dinner, games or more entertainment. The upper level offers an Indian Village, stream and ponds.
OLD MINING CAMP
 Desert Adventures' Old Mining Camp of the late 1800's, includes a covered eating area for 200 hundred guests, bar, large Dance Floor and Stage, Campfires with group seating, Walk-In Mine, Antique Wagons, Old Equipment, and a Cowboy Town with Assessors' Office, Hotel, Walk-Up Saloon, Bank, Livery Stable, and Lock-Up Jail. This camp is perfect for small groups, and can also accommodate groups of up to 800 guests.
STARLIGHT CANYON
 This is an incredible "Ballroom in Nature". Your walls are rugged rock formations created by the San Andreas Fault, creating a ROUND ROOM that can accommodate small groups up to 300 guests. The stars are your ceiling, and Desert Adventures does the rest with colored ambient lighting on the rock walls. A perfect location for Jazz, Blues or Classical dining under the stars, or maybe even nature's discothèque.
ELDORADO POLO CLUB
Eldorado Polo Club has always been an event center, whether we are hosting the United States National Polo Open, his Royal Highness, Prince Charles, or an important corporate group like YOURS! An endless number of major national and international corporations, from the Walt Disney Corporation to IBM, have already discovered the attractions of desert polo.
Eldorado Polo Club is the Capital for Polo in the Western United States and one of the oldest, premier event and entertainment sites in California. Eldorado Polo Club was featured in the films “Pretty Woman” and “The Thomas Crown Affair”. Located at the East end of the picturesque Coachella Valley, just minutes from the Palm Springs Desert Resorts, Eldorado Polo Club offers more than 200 acres of lush, green polo fields surrounded by palm trees and snowcapped mountains with unmatched 360 degree scenic vistas. Facilities include our Spanish style clubhouse, pavilion party tents, with clear siding for year round comfort.
POLO AND GOLF CART POLO PARTIES
The Eldorado Polo Club is the right choice to experience the thrill of world-class Polo, and enjoy the competitive and thrilling game of golf cart polo. The setting is intimate and beautiful. A typical corporate evening event will feature an exhibition polo match, with field side tables and seats to get you a close-up view of the action! An announcer gives an introduction to polo and narrates every play. At half-time guests will participate in the infamous “Pretty Woman” Divot Stomp, and will have the opportunity to meet the Polo Players and their horses for photos and conversation. You will enjoy a sumptuous catered meal, live music and open bar. After Dinner, guests are invited back out to the polo field to enjoy golf cart polo. An Eldorado innovation, golf cart polo employs polo players as golf cart drivers, who will teach strategy as guests ride in the passenger seats carrying a specially designed mallet as strikers so guests can play the game themselves. Participation can be arranged for first ball throw-in, as well as trophy presentations. If appropriate, teams can even be named for corporations and businesses. Lawn Games, Tethered Hot Air Balloon Rides, and hitting cage complete the evening.
THEME PARTIES AND ELEGANT DINING
Been There - Done That? NOT LIKE THIS! Eldorado Polo Club is the perfect setting for any theme party you can imagine, like a Hot Tropics Party with a Mexican, Caribbean or Hawaiian flair, Toga Party to celebrate the 25th anniversary of “Animal House”, or anything we can dream up! Formal Dining with Blues, Jazz or Classical Music on the Green offers endless opportunities for elegant affairs. Add an authentic Cuban Cigar roller and hand rolled cigars, casino games, magicians, fortune tellers, comics, elegant horse drawn carriage rides for your guests to enjoy.
CHALLENGE-U EXPERIENTIAL TEAMBUILDING
HIGH AND LOW ROPES COURSE
During the day, Challenge U, based in San Diego, offers Teambuilding Programs with the combination of a low and high ropes course, enabling participants to grow at the team and individual levels, exploring risk, leadership, and communication. The challenge course program provides an effective vehicle to work on your team objectives in an environment away from the work place. The experiences are structured to require the learner to take initiative, make decisions and be accountable for the results. Following each activity a reflective or debrief process is facilitated to draw out the individual and team learning. In each subsequent activity the group will have the opportunity to practice the skills that were effective in the previous events. The facilitators will be introducing “tools” as necessary to support the learning of skills. We conclude the entire program with a celebration and acknowledgement of the groups' participation and achievements.
