Larry Ellison plans to turn Porcupine Creek estate into a private, exclusive resort

Billionaire Larry Ellison, one of the world’s wealthiest individuals who owns the Indian Wells Tennis Garden and the BNP Pariabas Open, appears to be expanding his business empire in the desert.

Ellison is planning to transform his exclusive Porcupine Creek home and golf course in Rancho Mirage into an elite hideaway for the rich.

Porcupine Creek Retreat is a proposed resort with up to 50 units that promises a “six-star, exclusive guest experience,” according to its website.

“When approved, these plans will place Rancho Mirage among the ranks of the world’s most desirable health and wellness destinations,” according to a statement sent to The Desert Sun on behalf of the ownership.

Ellison bought the compound — which he used as a vacation home and has functioned as the “home quarters” during the BNP Paribas tennis tournament — for a reported $43 million in 2011, after it was originally listed for $75 million. – Source
