Wood is provided for the first night of stay. The fold-out couch provides an additional sleeping area. There is a large, 47' wall-mounted t.v. and bluray player.

The Family room on the main level is equipped with a couch and chairs, and a small dining table that expands to fit up to eight people comfortable.
The kitchen is situated between the family room and the covered patio to allow access for inside or outside dining. It is fully equipped with both ceramic plates and a full set of melamine dishes and serving sets for both indoor and outdoor gatherings. Our daughter insisted that any vacation rental should have a waffle maker, so, a waffle maker is included. We live close by and are happy to provide additional cooking/serving supplies as available.
The backyard is our favorite part of this house. The previous owners had their own landscaping business, specializing in sustainable garden design and they made their own garden extra special. There is a cob pizza oven with granite detailing, a small pond, beautiful flowers in abundance throughout spring and summer, flagstone walkways and mature trees. The large covered patio provides a wonderful setting for meals and for relaxing in hanging chairs. The patio dining table seats eight comfortably. Pizza oven is considered an open flame and may be off-limits seasonally depending on fire danger. During fire season, the Coconino County website stays updated with local restrictions. There is a propane BBQ grill in the patio area as well, that can be used year-round.
The front yard has a small covered patio where you can relax or watch your housemates play basketball on the driveway. There is also a large blue spruce providing additional covered seating.
Foxglenn Park is within walking distance, providing easy access to outdoor recreation and seasonal festivals (Kite festival, Celtic Festival, etc.) There are soccer fields, softball, a skate park, and playground as well as access to the Flagstaff trail system and a running loop. Several mountain bikes and child trailer are available to guests upon request.
Also within biking distance is the Flagstaff Aquaplex which has a large indoor pool with a children's play area, two large water slides and a small lazy river. The facility also has a full gym and weight room, rock wall, and childcare available. Aquaplex daily rates are very reasonable.
There are two golf courses nearby- Continental Country Club and Aspen Hills. In the winter we can direct you to some great 'secret' sledding spots in our neighborhood.
