RV Park Evacuated as Fire Destroys 9 Trailers, 12 Vehicles
DESERT HOT SPRINGS (CNS) – About 100 people were evacuated from the Country Squire RV Park in Desert Hot Springs Tuesday as firefighters battled a blaze that engulfed nine trailers and 12 vehicles.
Crews responded shortly before 1 p.m. to the 66400 block of Dillon Road, a representative of the Riverside County Fire Department told City News Service.
According to the fire department, nine trailers and 12 vehicles were destroyed by the flames, but there were no immediate reports of any injuries.
Due to the presence of a 500-gallon propane tank, the entire trailer park was evacuated as a precaution, fire officials said. Around 100 people were evacuated by 1:12 p.m.
A Sunline Transit bus was requested by the Desert Hot Springs Police Department to act as a mobile cooling center, according to fire officials. The Desert Hot Springs Library, 14380 Palm Drive, was also established as an evacuation and cooling center.
Crews from the Cathedral City, Hemet, Palm Springs and Soboba fire departments responded to the scene to help in the firefight.
Palm Springs fire officials reported the blaze as a third alarm fire at 2:11 p.m. and said “very high winds and outside temperature of 112 degrees is hampering fire suppression.”
Resources were expected to remain on scene for six hours and fire officials urged people to stay out of the area.
The cause of the fire was not immediately known.

The holidays should be a time for joy, but they can also bring stress, loneliness and added pressure. 🎄 How do you protect your mental and physical health during the busy holiday season? Dr. Joseph Aquilina, Chief Medical Officer at DAP Health, shares practical advice on setting boundaries, managing holiday stress, navigating difficult family dynamics, eating and drinking mindfully, and making time for the people and activities that bring you joy. His biggest reminders? It’s OK to say no, give yourself permission to feel your feelings, and don’t be afraid to ask for help when you need it. And as we head into 2027, it’s also a great time to check in on your health screenings and make sure your vaccines are up to date. If you or someone you know is experiencing a mental health crisis, call or text 988 for support. #DAPHealth #HolidayHealth #MentalHealthMatters #HolidayStress #DrJosephAquilina CoachellaValley PalmSprings NBCPalmSprings
