You enter through the dining/living room and into a hallway where the door and stairs ( slightly steeper than more modern homes) to your private quarters are. Due to recent guest complaint we have removed the amenities listing our downstairs kitchen, living room and dining room. We will do our best to ensure they are clean and tidy but life happens and this is our full time home so we can't always guarantee that our space will look like a Home and Gardens magazine cover. If you can tolerate our less than perfect living spaces, then you are welcome to request to use them. The same applies to our laundry, backyard and patio. We try to keep them neat but life happens so we aren't officially listing them but they are there if you can enjoy them. During your stay Our cell numbers are on the chalk board in your space. Feel free to call or text. We tell people to think of our downstairs like a hotel lobby. You are welcome to come and go as you please. We are totally used to having guests at the school. You won't bother us at all. Other things to note Salt Creek runs along-side the trail at times giving the walk or ride on the trail a tranquil experience. We do have WiFi (cable internet) with high speed access so feel free to stream movies from your favorite service. The WiFi password should arrive with your checkin info, but it is also on the chalkboard in your loft.
