Other Details to Note
We have thoughtfully renovated the house but it's still a little quirky (some light switches are in strange places!) We love that it has character and we hope you fall for its charm too. If you find anything not working or missing please let us know personally straight away rather than leaving it in a review. Your comfort - as well as our 5 star ratings! - are important to us. Some roads are unpaved but accessible; higher clearance is helpful but not necessary. Pets: Up to two dogs allowed ($95 fee). No cats. Quiet hours: 10 PM – 8 AM Parties and events are not allowed. The home uses a septic system, please flush toilet paper only. Children should be supervised outdoors. Wood stove is decorative only. Wildlife: You may spot rabbits, roadrunners, lizards, coyotes, and other desert creatures. The desert is peaceful but alive with nature. Keep doors closed and food sealed, and enjoy the quiet beauty of this high-desert landscape.
