Wireless internet service (150/15) is available and the house television comes equipped with a Netflix subscription accessed via the Roku service. Prime Video and Pandora access is available, so you can link into your personal subscription. Weather, PBS and PBS Kids are on the selection menu too.

If dining-in is your interest, this house is vacation-ready with the kitchen containing a side-by-side double oven and 8 propane burners for cooking supported by an oversize refrigerator.  A propane BBQ for your outdoor grill chief is also available.  There are some basic pots, pans, plates, cups, and utensils for your use. A dishwasher helps with clean-up and a clothes washer/dryer is available as well.

For sleeping arrangements, there are three bedrooms. The master bedroom is on the ground floor with a large dedicated bathroom containing an oversized bath and separate shower. The bathroom is equipped with toilet and bidet. Each of the three beds are a Cal-King Tuft & Needle mattress and each bedroom offers views of pastures or mesas. Pillows and linens are provided. There are also bed-side plugs and USB-ports for nightly recharge of your devices.  Bathrooms contain towels and basic toiletries (shampoo, conditioner, soap, and body lotion).


To meet "work-from-whereever" needs, a study/work/play room is available where someone can work or the kids can play with a chalkboard (for fun).  One unique thing about this house is an expansive deck accessible via the kitchen and the back door. The deck overlooks the pastures of the ranch and the adjacent Arizona game and Fish property.  While you might have a jam-packed adventure planned, there is nothing to stop you from just getting away from it all and enjoying some down time on our property with friends and family.
