For the first time ever, two iconic homes in Palm Springs - one once owned by Lucille Ball and husband Desi Arnaz; the other once owned by Elvis Presley and wife Pricilla Presley — are now open to visitors for tours and/or overnight visits. The Lucy House, 1194 Via Miraliste in Palm Springs, is one of the original desert homes of Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz, owned by the couple from 1946 through 1955. Pricing: Summer Weekdays: $450; Summer Weekends: $550. Visit www.TheLucyHouse.com for more information. The Elvis Presley Palm Springs Estate, located at 845 West Chino Canyon Road, is one of only five homes that Elvis Presley bought in his lifetime. Built in 1946, the home was purchased by Elvis and Priscilla on April 2, 1970 (visitors will see the original deed). The home includes a recording studio; Elvis’s private bedroom; a lively bar area; Elvis’s original outdoor hot tub and indoor sauna and steam room; and a private entrance Elvis used to come and go unnoticed by others. Visitors may tour the residence for a special summer rate of just $15 per person. For more info, visit www.elvispalmsprings.com
