RETRO-PALM SPRINGS Tennis Club!

I love these old photos of historic places in Palm Springs.  There seems to be a campy and endearing nostalgia for those sun-soaked days in our not-so-distant past.  I will post these photos when I come across them and see if I can include the place as it is today!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The famous oval pool at the Tennis Club on Baristo Road in Palm Springs, March 1947. The pool is still used today.

The Tennis Club is now a vacation rental destination and has the award-winning Spencer's Restaurant onsite.

That is amazing. I think it looks even better today. I love those bright blue pools - so Palm Springs.

Kathy,

Love those pictures, I remember the last time we were in Palm Springs, we were at a restaurant (has a small hotel connected to it), and the fabrics were amazing--  the background was black with printed birds of paradise and big green leaves on it.  Very retro and reminiscent of the Beverly Hills hotel.

Very cool indeed.  Thanks for sharing and enjoy the beautiful weather.  Our weather is getting ready for fall.

Ron & Alexandra,  I bet you were at Melvyn's at the Ingleside Inn.  I have old ties there from years ago-- but that's another story!  Thanks for taking the time to comment!  Kathy
