Victoria Falls Real Estate

Victoria Falls

One of Rancho Mirage's most popular gated communities, with low HOA fees and a former home of Bill Marx, son of Harpo Marx. Homes from $700K to $1.4M+.

Victoria Falls is among the most consistently popular gated communities in Rancho Mirage, located at the corner of Bob Hope Drive and Gerald Ford Drive. Developed by respected builder Peter Solomon between 1997 and 2004, the community comprises approximately 334 to 337 single and two-story homes on generously sized lots, many offering unobstructed views of the San Jacinto Mountains in every direction.

The community's English-inspired street names and overall design aesthetic give Victoria Falls a distinctive character within Rancho Mirage, and its location places residents just a golf cart ride from Mission Hills Country Club, directly across the street from the new Cotino development, and within easy reach of Gelson's Gourmet Market.

Victoria Falls has a notable history of its own: one of its homes was formerly owned by Bill Marx, the singer, songwriter, and composer son of Harpo Marx, adding a small but genuine piece of entertainment history to this already well-regarded neighborhood.
