The wedding was great and as a wedding planner, I enjoyed working with this team. From the start, they care for the client with respect and class. Especially loved working with Scott. He has the best personality and is so fun! We did have a staff change which somewhat caused a communication issue, but they quickly bounced back and made sure everything was correct and updated. As a wedding planner, I would certainly do another wedding here! The staff, food and facility are top notch!

Rented this house for our daughter’s 15-person micro-wedding in May. It was the perfect venue with endless picture-perfect options for photos, meals, and activities. It’s like having your own private resort. The pool area is amazing. In addition, the house was clean, well appointed, and rooms are well laid-out for everyone to not feel like they were on top of each other. There are quite a few steps both inside and out so if you have anyone with mobility issues it could be challenging. The TRAVLR staff was very responsive and helpful with all of our questions. We had a number of pretty specific inquiries about types of dishes and glasses, etc. (for the wedding dinner) and they were always prompt and thorough in their replies. They even tracked down and shipped some bathing suits that were left behind. We appreciated their attention to detail. Casa Tierra exceeded all expectations - I just wish we had stayed longer!

We worked with Knife House in 2023 2024 for an annual event for one of our agency's clients where we were tasked with curating a hospitality house space & hosting VIP dinners within the space. We received SOO many compliments on the space itself and it was such a hit! The Knife House team is great to work with as (especially in our 2nd year working with them) they totally understand the needs/complications of event hosting and the various tasks needed. They were up extremely communicative collaborative throughout our time planning the event and instrumental in it's success. When/if there was an issue with the venue prior to the event, they did all they could to rectify the situation on our behalf, including getting the cement power-washed so it would look it's best reinstalling lights that were not intended to be removed. Both of these elements were handled swiftly and professionally, and without question. Kim was a pleasure to work with and really collaborated with us, answering all of our questions and being available throughout the full planning event timeline to support however she could. This is a beautiful venue and would definitely recommend it for any upscale, modern setting you'll be looking for in the Palm Springs area!
