The main floor southern bedroom with feather artwork and a queen bed has a firmer mattress. The main floor eastern bedroom in the back of the house with the fishing artwork has a queen bed with a softer plush mattress. The loft bedroom upstairs is open and bright. It has a king bed with a high-end hybrid WINK softer mattress. Please note: The sun rises early, and it does get bright in the early morning from the skylight and the expansive front windows. The great room noises also tend to rise up to the loft, so it is not as quiet as the other bedrooms. I prefer this room but I do wear an eye mask so I can sleep in the morning. There are disposable eye masks for your use if desired. There is also a folding privacy screen that can be used if desired. Guest access This is an entire 3 bedroom, 2 bath home in a private, beautiful, rural area. Other things to note Newly installed split units offer air conditioning! Not always needed at this elevation, but it is a welcomed luxury when the temperature rises.
