Landscape Of The Month

This month’s LANDSCAPE OF THE MONTH was submitted by Julie Brinkerhoff of Lifescapes, Inc. of Newport Beach for their work at The Lakes Country Club in Palm Desert, California.

The majestic Santa Rosa Mountains provide a dramatic backdrop for the private country club resort community situated on a 314-acre site and home to 908 families. Recreational amenities include an 18-hole golf course designed by Ted Robinson within a California ranch style theme. The tennis club includes 15 championship courts, manufactured by Ferandell Tennis Courts, and, as does the golf course, has its own clubhouse.








The approximately 25 acres of meandering streams, lakes and waterfalls offer an appealing contrast to the resort’s desert location. There are 47 swimming pools located near the resort residences.

The developer for the project was the Sunrise Company of Palm Desert. The architect was Robert Altevers & Associates of Costa Mesa.

A $25 donation in the name of Julie Brinkerhoff has been made to the CLASS Fund by Nightscaping. Congratulations!
