But I think Club 541 has killed that since they charge much less and are packed, even in off-season. Edited on 08/22/24

"Walk" areas behind the buildings are open for play. As of last weekend, February 20, the "compound" tent area in the back corner is open. Alas, indoor play area sheds are still closed but there's hope. Edited on 02/25/21

A lot of older guys, but you have to remember where you are: a gay retirement community. That being said it is so much better than a bookstore or movie theater because of the different play areas and the nude pool. I have definitely had my share of fun here. Edited on 06/02/20
Riley8 Reviewer Usergroup: Member Joined: Nov 08, 2018 Total Listings: 0 Total Reviews: 1 Report	Posted Nov 08 2018: I've stayed here a few times and done day passes as well. Generally, it's grossly overpriced — gouging the community is probably more appropriate. And now with the advent of the drag bar just outside the "hotel," they really think they're the shit, when in reality, they're just full of shit — literally. The rooms smell awful. I complained after my last stay and they offered me a free weekend in a newly upgraded room. When I tried to book it, they simply never responded. The play ground is new; the old one was so gross I couldn't stand the smell or even go in it. The crowd is generally plentiful and mixed — lots of hot studs into servicing the grossest fat old men ever, go figure. My key problem with CCBC is the amount of unsafe sex, so much fucking going on without rubbers, sucking cocks that have just cum up someone's ass. Cummunion is celebrated monthly; it's like a giant sero-conversion party 24/7/365! It's probably singlehandedly responsible for the soaring syphilis rates coming out of Palm Springs. It's ground zero in STD/HIV. Which is sad, 'cuz it's really got potential. They like to think they're 4 star, but they're barely an outdoor bathhouse for chrissake. But the filth, odor, and disease have just become prohibitive. Oh, and the gouging. Seriously CCBC, drop your fucking prices! Edited on 11/08/18

But I arrived around midnight on a night pass for a Cummunion party last month. Whew. The action was plentiful and generally hot. A lot more young guys than I expected. Guys wandering around naked or in thongs, and a few in leather harness and jock — umm, me. Guys enjoying play, guys enjoying being watched while they play, and of course guys enjoying watching other guys play. So what's not to like? When a buff young bottom wanted to back onto my boner I explained that I didn't have a condom. He said, "I'll go get one!" and adeptly wrapped me in it. He backed his warm tight ass onto my dick and I fucked him doggie while the guy standing next to me whispered in my ear and played with my balls. Start of a long evening. Not sure if it's always that good on a Saturday night, but it was better than I expected and I'm sure I'll give it another try when I'm out in PS again. Edited on 11/05/18
Aaron Report	Posted Jan 25 2016: I just wanted to add that the website listed for this place is way outdated. Here is the current one: www.ccbcresorthotel.com Thanks for the correction! I usually try to check and correct this kind of thing when a new review comes in for a place, as you see with the last review. I'll update it and check their web site for other information. When I lived in Southern California in the 1990s I went to CCBC many times for various club events and I enjoyed it. Unfortunately, CFS gets few reviews for CCBC these days and I'm much too far away now to keep on top of it, so to speak, myself. ~ Editor Edited on 02/01/16

Even if the guest rooms aren't pleasant, you can still get a day pass to hang out on the property. If you have a day pass, just be out before the 12 hours is up (not out by 4 am like other resorts). You can also camp out in a tent on the property. Thank you very much for the update. I have revised the listing to use the new address and their new website. ~ Editor Edited on 05/12/14
Report	0 of 1 people found this review helpful Posted Apr 14 2014: Here's an update. The place is still a major filthy contaminated scum place. The rooms are overpriced and the help, well I think they took a class in personal nastiness. If they don't like their job and the people they deal with, get the f*** out of there. Appears the best place in town to score drugs and it was clear virtually everyone on passes and guests were loaded on something. The average age is still 60+ and not pretty. If that's your thing, go for it. It's amazing that they stay open. Edited on 04/18/14
Report	Posted Apr 01 2012: I have to agree. CCBC is overpriced and EXTREMELY over-rated. Edited on 04/03/12
brian Report	Posted Jan 14 2012: There's nothing really "boy" about this place. Instead, you find really aggressive, twacked-n-drunk older pervs. Edited on 01/16/12
Report	Posted Dec 01 2011: Stayed here the other night and had my car broken into. I heard there have been dozens of cars being broken into. This could be a great place if they would get rid of the tweekers. Edited on 12/05/11
Report	Posted Aug 23 2011: Stayed here and was quite repulsed. You can buy any drug you desire from all the local tweekers who visit. The room smelled like a can of Crisco from the 80's and old poppers. I even found used needles discarded along the back walkways. Average age is 60, which is cool, but this is a 60 that is drunk and, well, yuck. Edited on 08/24/11
Kenny Report	Posted Jul 22 2011: I discovered this place a few years ago while on vacation. At first I would not go in, but on my next year I grew the nerve to explore. Even though I didn't touch anyone, I was amazed and shocked, but loved it. I loved watching the guys in the sling, the dungeon, the walk was great. I knew when I walked beyond the doors, I was definitely not in Alabama any longer! Edited on 07/24/11

player2nyc Super Reviewer Usergroup: Member Joined: Dec 24, 2004 Total Listings: 0 Total Reviews: 21 Report	Posted Apr 19 2011: I've stayed here on several occasions, but was never really happy with the rooms, showers, and overall cleanliness of the place. The only thing going for the place is the layout and the play areas. True, lots of tweakers, but also some hot straight boys looking to get off. Edited on 04/24/11
Howie Greenberg Report	Posted Mar 01 2011: I have been visiting CCBC for years. There is more action here than hotels because they have day passes which brings in the horny locals as well as guests from other hotels. Many playrooms and areas that are fun, a steamroom, sauna, 2 spas, the famous walk, waterfall, jail, and military compound. Rooms are comfortable and clean. Lots of special events on weekends, too. Edited on 03/05/11
ps local Report	Posted Jan 21 2011: One thing apart from what the other reviews state sums up CCBC for me: It is owned by an old, straight, Jewish man. Nothing against being Jewish (or old or straight for that matter) but with all of the other resorts owned by gay men, it just seems silly to give a straight guy your money. Edited on 01/28/11
Bob Report	Posted Nov 25 2010: Yes, CCBC is a real dump and, yes, there is only one hot shower, and they are very cheap about soap. You can see behavior from safe vanilla to reckless abandon. I once walked up on a man with a mechanical dick fucking another (bareback) in the spa tub one day. A crowd had gathered. A few were whispering and not liking it, and the water was already getting dirty, but no one asked them to stop. So have a nice swim, and check out the meth kiddies on the weekend nights, too. To be fair, lots of good guys go there, and it is jammed if it's not cold out. Edited on 11/28/10
Jock Report	Posted Jul 17 2010: I do not know where these people have been, but I have stayed at CCBC for the last 4 years and the rooms are clean and staff have always been very helpful and friendly. The crowd is mixed, like all of Palm Springs it tends toward older -- but hotties always show up. Fun socializing and not bad sex either. Edited on 07/23/10
Reviewer Report	Posted Jul 13 2010: I have been coming here for 15 years and it is still a dump. The steamroom needs to be condemned. It's not been repaired for years and stinks to high hell. Also, both front desk people I dealt with yesterday were horrible. It is a large resort and it has potential if someone came in and spent a little money. A decent pool, newer hot tub, but the rooms are still crap with thrift store furniture. There is sex going on, so if that's what you're looking for, you will find it. The average age is probably mid 60's with a lot of locals there on daily or monthly passes. Edited on 07/16/10
Report	Posted Jun 12 2010: I have been to many gay places in my life and this has to be the worst. We checked in for a 5 day weekend and checked out the very next day because of the filth. Carpeting was the type you stick or slide on. Yes, the help are mean and nasty in every way. Yes, the average age group is 70. Plus the loud speakers blare all day and half the night with obnoxious loud music that is not even as good as a bathhouse. Edited on 06/16/10
Report	Posted Dec 12 2009: CCBC would be much nicer if the management treated their guests better. If you are in on a day pass it can sometimes mean only one hot shower for fifty to one hundred guys, and the soap is cheap foam. They are really cheap for the money they charge.
Report	Posted Sep 28 2009: This has to be the worst place on earth. The constant flow, around the clock, of drugged out yucks is bad. The rooms are filthy and the staff is old and mean.
Report	Posted Jun 22 2009: My partner and I stayed here mid week in May and we felt like chicken meat - and we are 39 and 40! I have stayed here before, about four years ago, and it had a much younger crowd, now most of the guys are 50 and older. I found the staff to be rather rude and they seemed to be bitter about being 60 and having to work in the reception of a rather tired old resort. The rooms are clean but very basic. The themed 'play' areas are filthy, old vinyl covered mattresses and sticky carpet, and with the desert heat the smell was interesting. Wednesday night was very busy as it is half price entry for all the locals. CCBC is not classy and I am sure there are better gay places in the desert to stay.
Report	Posted Apr 23 2009: Yuck. I went on a day-pass two days before White Party thinking there would be some good action there. There was nobody under fifty years old and two guys were actually using walkers to get around. If you're looking for dirty and sleazy, this is the place for you. I was sitting in the 'Jockuzzi' and noticed a turd floating by. Seriously. Poop in the spa. I guess someone ran out of their Depends. Clientele seems mostly older, out-of-shape locals on day passes. There's definitely a market for that in Palm Springs.
Report	Posted Jan 24 2009: Definitely a great place to get off. However, it can be slow sometimes. Expect more action when the parking lot is close to full. Event Saturdays are best. Go to the Dungeon during the contest. There will be many guys there who are more interested in sex than the contest. Please note that their day-pass prices have gone up lately. I believe you can still get a single-entry for $20 but once you leave you cannot enter on the same pass. The standard pass is $25, which allows multiple re-entries and expires twelve hours from time of issue. Also, they have special prices on Wednesday that I can't take advantage of because I work. I've heard that Wednesdays can be busy, but it's often older guys who don't have to work.
Report	Posted Jan 16 2009: It is really good when they have their Nude Contests (usually held on three-day holiday weekends). $20 day pass gets you in and you can come back that night for more fun. I usually go for the contests and help fluff the contestants.
Report	Posted Oct 29 2008: The grounds are nice, the rooms decent, plenty of indoor and outdoor play space. The only problem? No hot guys. I went on a Friday night and it was filled with extremely old guys, sixty-five years old and up, some barely able to walk. Extremely disappointing and I will not be back.
Report	Posted Dec 22 2007: I returned after several years and was very disappointed. It is now rundown and the prices have gone way up, charging extra for a towel and locker. Prices have driven away the young guys.
Report	Posted Oct 12 2007: Hot, hot, hot! Guys from their twenties to the eighties. A lot of hot sex in the rooms and along the trails.
Report	Posted Aug 19 2007: Recently visited and had a great time, lots of naked action everywhere. I sucked cock throughout the complex, got fucked in the barber's chair and fucked three guys in the sling. I got sucked and sucked cock in the video room. Fun place, just strip and walk around and forget your inhibitions.
Report	Posted Aug 13 2007: The resort has been sanitized. The video room has been reconfigured to limit its use to watching videos. Danny's Dungeon is now a social room with chattering queens discussing their favorite restaurants and shopping. It was apparent some people were taken by surprise because the change is recent and drastic. One guy said to his friend 'it's midnight...I guess this is as good as it gets', which was pretty bad. Nothing was happening, or going to happen.
Report	Posted Jul 20 2007: I went on Wednesday, half price. Most guys over fifty-five year old and there for the free food and sun. A couple guys were hot but stayed to themselves. It was well worth the money for a day pass. I hear it's hotter after 5 pm.
Report	Posted May 11 2007: This is where the old folks go. If you are over sixty-five years old and seeking men the same age this is the place.
Report	Posted Jan 05 2007: Absolutely a great place to hang for a while for all sorts of dick. Don't miss Wednesdays for special low price entry...great.
Report	Posted Dec 30 2006: Very disappointing. I stayed for five days and the weekdays were totally dead. The weekend brought a few flabby and out of shape trolls to the cruisy areas but nobody worth playing with. And be sure to ask about the hidden 'fees' before you spend the night here!
Report	Posted Dec 10 2006: This place is a cocksuckers heaven. The cocksucking orgies are hot! The steamroom, the sauna, and the orgy rooms are calling!
Report	Posted Nov 13 2006: CCBC is disgusting! I got stuck staying here a week because of there 'once you check in we don't refund for any reason' policy. The men were old. They must offer an AARP discount. Rooms disgusting and filled with bugs. As a travel agent I came home and told all of my clients to stay somewhere else as I refuse to have anyone stay here.
Report	Posted Sep 16 2006: During the last year this resort has taken a turn for the worse. It used to be relaxing. Now it's run like a prison. The staff follow guests around and it's a damn good thing the hothead security guard doesn't have a pistol on him. The place is now filled mostly with older queens who think that for their grounds pass they can grope anything they see. They are a sterile group these days. The only time the place gets a pulse is during special events. Average age here is seventy-five. I'm serious.
Report	Posted Apr 30 2006: The Resort has an interesting 60's look and the rooms are basic and clean. The greenery in 'the walk' has thinned out somewhat and water features appear rancid at times. There are a lot of old regulars...they are aggressive. There is a lot of girl talk going on in the cruisy spots spoiling the mood. I was there in early April (the fourth time in a year) and for the number of guys on the property the action was minimal. Many were fully dressed with their hands in their pockets and appeared to be killing time and watching what little action was taking place. Kissing and groping in the dark, fully dressed, is apparently 'in' again as guys took over the compound area just to make out. Not sure why people would pay for a guest pass just to grope. If you have no standards and a few hours chances are you could find something, but most sexpigs would be disappointed.
Report	Posted Jan 26 2006: I was there for a week and ended up watching a lot of TV. Thank God they had cable. I wish I would have believed these reviews before dropping a grand! I would say to maybe try a day-pass, but I know I won't be back. Room was clean and nice, but the hot customers were few and far between.
Report	Posted Nov 11 2005: I was there in May and last September and found this place very hot. There is all kinds of action going on in the rooms, bushes, and the compound area. The guys are hot and friendly and I never had a problem with the friendly staff. This is a must for any sex pig going to the desert. I love this place.
Report	Posted Nov 03 2005: I usually go on Wednesdays. Mostly guys older than myself who like to suck dick. I average over five blowjobs a day and usually cum about three times. Great place if you just wanted to kick back and get great head from hungry older dudes.
Report	Posted Oct 13 2005: The worst! The management and staff were rude for the entire week we were there. Rude to the customers and also nasty to the staff. Further, if you like really, really old men this is the place for you. Not unusual to see naked guys in their seventies, eighties, and yes, nineties. If you are going to stay there, whatever you do, don't look at the bedding. Filthy!
Report	Posted Aug 25 2005: Went there on a Wednesday. I had not been there in over a year and it was still the same old regulars. They are old, fat and pushy. The resort is looking a lot better, too bad I cannot say the same for the guys who show up there.
Report	Posted Oct 20 2004: I used to have a hot time about eighty percent of the time I went to this place on a twelve hour pass. I went last Sunday and it was trgaic to put it mildly. Perhaps another day will be better.
Report	Posted Oct 14 2004: I went on a Saturday night and was very disappointed. On the positive side, the staff was friendly and it was busy. The downside is that the place was quite dirty, the grounds were run-down and tired looking, the bathrooms were nasty, and the clientele was primarily large bears. I was only in Palm Springs for one night and wish I had gone elsewhere.
Report	Posted Mar 09 2003: I have been there weekends in a row and after Noon, and this place is jumping with sex. There are more older then younger men, but these guys are here for play and not to tease. They just added Danny's Dungeon and it is a great group room.
Report	Posted Jan 12 2003: This place is rank! Even for the day they charge to go there. The men are very old, usually drunk and as a whole this place sucks. Don't even!
Report	Posted Oct 27 2002: If you're looking for boys, then this is not the place for you. But if you're looking for men, well, that's different. Rooms appeared well kept and the outdoor area well groomed. The action was hot and plentiful. They have twelve hour lockers to get full access to the complex. Check out ‘The Walk'!
Report	Posted Aug 23 2002: I went on the supposed ‘beach weekend' in mid-August. The layout was indeed beautiful and that path around the resort is pretty. The idea of a ‘private beach' was cute but the steamroom was next to an incredibly smelly toilet area (which you have to pass through to get to the steamroom) and the dry sauna didn't seem like so much of a sauna when I was here. The pool water also was a bit saltier than any pool I've ever been in (I don't even want to imagine what that means). But the absolute worst part, which for me defeated the whole purpose of even going, was that every five minutes or so somebody from management came around with a flashlight to make sure nobody was having sex outside of the rooms (this was only between about 8 and 10 pm on a Saturday). Geez! For all the money and hassle, I doubt I'll be going back.
Report	Posted Aug 23 2002: Why drive so far to be bored in a trashcan that pretends to be five-star resort? I've only stayed here when all else is booked, and still hated it! Go to Warm Sands, cruise and shack up with one of the many cool guys there. Plus, it's beautiful!
Report	Posted Sep 29 2001: CCBC is a good place to go and relax while working on your tan. I found the action to be limited to old guys who have not heard of viagra yet. The staff is indifferent. The video rooms (two) are terrible and hot with both showing the same video, and the last few times it has been mostly leather videos. It seems to be going nowhere and could use new ownership.
Report	Posted Sep 06 2001: I agree with the earlier comments about the standard of accommodation at CCBC. I had arranged three nights at the resort over Easter but checked out after just one. Although some of the rooms overlooking the pool area have been remodeled, I was unable to secure one of these in spite of my request over a month in advance. I was posted to a room at the start/end of the 'nature walk' which was, frankly, filthy. The bathroom was especially dirty with cracked porcelain, no sink plug and a shower head that was blocked. Insects including spiders webs in the window sills added to the misery at this dirty resort.
