The O'Donnell House

The O'Donnell House is a historic Mediterranean Revival estate perched on a mountainside terrace in downtown Palm Springs, California, adjacent to The Willows Historic Palm Springs Inn. Originally built in 1925 as the winter home of oilman Thomas O'Donnell and his wife, the 4,100-square-foot property sits on four acres overlooking the desert valley and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2011. The estate accommodates events of up to 125 guests across its grounds, which feature original tile floors, redwood ceilings, antique furnishings, landscaped gardens, and dramatic desert views. Its distinctive rock work and historic architecture lend an authentic, character-rich backdrop for weddings and receptions, private parties, fundraising galas, and corporate retreats and conferences. For overnight accommodations, the adjacent Willows Historic Palm Springs Inn offers 17 luxury guest rooms, providing a seamless on-site lodging option for event guests.
