Desert Wildlife & Safety Tips:
The desert landscape is teeming with wildlife and natural beauty, offering a unique connection to nature, but it’s important to be mindful of the creatures and plants that call this area home. Guests may encounter a variety of wildlife during their stay, and while direct encounters with dangerous animals like coyotes, snakes, scorpions, bobcats, mountain lions and other desert dwellers are rare, it is important to be aware of your surroundings and to keep a safe distance from these creatures when spotted. Additionally, the desert is dotted with sharp cacti and other spiky plants. For your safety, always supervise children, ESAs, and service animals while outdoors. ESAs/service animals should remain on a leash at all times and be watched closely while outdoors, as they can wander into potentially unsafe situations with wildlife or plants. By booking this property, guests acknowledge the potential for wildlife encounters and assume responsibility for their safety and the safety of their group. By respecting the local environment and staying aware, you can fully enjoy the magic of the desert.
Mounted iPad:
The house utilizes an iPad with which you can easily control the surround-sound music with preset playlists. If that's not your style - no worries! We have several Bluetooth speakers for you to use! If you have any trouble during your stay, please just shoot us a message.
Electric Vehicle Charger:
There is no fee to charge your electric vehicle! Charger is a Standard Level 2 Charge Port @ 240v 40amps. For Tesla, you will need to bring the SAE J1772 Charging Adapter that came with your Tesla.
Pest Service:
To keep the desert critters at bay, our pest technician will spray the exterior of the home every month. We try to schedule this while guests are not in the house.
Trash Service:
A trash bin is located to the right of the main house. Trash pickup is every other Monday.
