Water Parks in the Inland Empire 2011

Knott's Soak City Palm Springs - Slide - Tidalwave

If there are two things that set a summer in the Inland Empire apart from LA, OC and SD, it is the heat and lack of a nearby ocean to jump in to! However, Riverside and San Bernardino counties are home to (or close to) some of the best water parks and slides that will cool you off in no time with the 2011 water park season ahead of us!

Ace Hotel Palm Springs

Ace Hotel Palm Springs - Hipsters

The Ace Hotel in Palm Springs has transformed an outdated Howard Johnsons Inn in the heart of the Desert into an au courant, hipster hotel with an ever changing repertoire of events that draw the 18-40 adventurous set from Los Angeles, as well as crowds of Palm Springs locals.

Salton Sea State Park

Salton Sea State Recreation Area - Dead Tilapia on the Seashore 2

The Salton Sea is essentially a man-made, engineering eco-disaster. It was originally a salt basin, which then flooded about 100 years ago. The Salton Sea grew into a hugely popular tourist attraction for the Hollywood jet setting crowd of the 1920s, though today, the Salton Sea is mostly deserted.
