WELCOME TO BORREGO MODERN

Located just two hours from San Diego, and three hours from Los Angeles, Borrego Springs is a Southern California resort community largely developed during the 1950’s and surrounded by the Anza Borrego State Park, the largest state park in the United States. Borrego Springs, like it’s better known sister to the north of Palm Springs, has been a retreat for artists, actors and architects. 

Unlike Palm Springs however, Borrego remains less crowded, more natural, less developed and offers life at a slower more leisured pace. This site, and its information is a work in progress and will continue to evolve. I hope you will contribute your thoughts, ideas and knowledge of Borrego’s past. It’s a legacy that deserves to be preserved, one that will provide great enjoyment for the future.

Special thanks to the talented photographers who have allowed me to use their images, and a special thank you to Judy Parker, whose imagery never fails to inspire, as well as the home and property owners who have been willing to share these beautiful spaces.
