THIS IS A TINY HOME. PLEASE READ ALL OF OUR DESCRIPTIONS TO DETERMINE IF OUR UNIQUE ACCOMMODATIONS WILL SUIT YOUR NEEDS!
We want our guests to feel at home! Upon your arrival you will find a home-baked treat along with our locally roasted coffee with a French Press to enjoy for your next morning's breakfast. If you enjoy the pastries, then you are welcome to order from our "menu" selection of many other goodies for additional delicious and quick morning breakfasts (all home-made by your host Shelly)!
Our 236' square "Tiny House in the Big Mountains" is almost all Eco-Friendly! Starting with our Solar Panels for all of its energy needs, to its "earth friendly" needs that includes all of the cleaning supplies that we use down to the shampoo that we provide. We are also very blessed to have all natural well water!
We offer an EV Charger FREE of charge for our guests. It is 40 AMPS and works for all models. It's exterior location is at the end of yor private parking space for convenient overngith charging. It is NOT available for charging between
4 PM - 8 PM, which are our "peak hours".
Our kitchen is fully equipped with all the equipment and appliances to create your favorite meals. Please keep in mind that our kitchen has a SMALL oven and SMALL dishwasher. We also have basic condiments, spices, teas and Keurig pods. BBQ tools are also available for grilling on our outdoor propane grill!
Not only will you notice that our tiny home is extremely clean by visual standards, but it's sanitary through all the layers of bedding as well. I want our guests to know that we WASH EVERYTHING; not just the bed linens but also the Duvet Cover each and EVERY time we have new guests!
Our water heater is "instant", which means that the water temperature heats quickly, but it can also fluctuate somewhat in temperature.
We do ask that you don't linger in the shower due to our well water supply.
Our curtains are all "privacy curtains". The only exception is the "entry door curtains" and they are black-out curtains.
You must plan on driving at least an AWD vehicle to our place during fall, winter & spring. Our roads are maintained, but your drive is uphill and can be slick if we've had snow.
We allow no more than 4 guests for a booking; this includes infants as being the 4th guest. Being that our home is "tiny", it may not be suitable for very small children OR for 4 larger adults. Please keep this in mind, but this decision is left up to the booking guest.
We charge $15 extra per night for each additional guest after two guests, except for under the age of two years old.
We have two sleeping lofts, and one sofa sleeper. You will not be able to stand up in either loft.
The "master- loft" sleeps 2 comfortably on a queen floor mattress; access is by stairs.
The "mini-loft" is much smaller, narrower, and would be comfortable for a youth; access is by ladder only. Its dimensions are approx. 7' X 29". NO toddlers are allowed! Bedding is provided upon request.
The "sofa sleeper" is the approx. size of a regular mattress. Two smaller adults would be able to fit CLOSELY if "stretching space" isn't a preference for you; it would be more suitable for 2 youths or just one adult. Bedding is provided upon request.
We have also provided a "White Sound Noise" machine for those who are light sleepers!
A $50 extra cleaning fee may be charged for failing to respect hot tub rules, including: using glass in or near the hot tub, wearing heavy lotions or hair products into hot tub, and spilling food, drink, or bodily fluids into hot tub. Any of the above actions offset the chemical balance of the hot tub and make it unsanitary for future guests. Thank you for understanding (and showering before enjoying the hot tub).
We ask that you don't have any interaction with our dogs. They do not roam free, but you will possibly hear them bark during the day from our deck area. They are our "home security system"!
Cell phone service is a little patchy here in the mountains. Verizon users get the best reception here. We do have WiFi availability for streaming services, but again because we live in the mountains, it can be intermittent at times.
Our Tiny Home is located on Chipita Park Road, sharing the same one acre property that we, the owners live on. Although we share the same land, our Tiny Home is privately yours during your stay and includes a privacy fence that surrounds the hot tub & courtyard; and yet we are close by in case of emergencies. We do live in a neighborhood, which mostly consists of retirees, snow birds, dogs and families. Our mountain views in this beautiful neighborhood will astound you from every window!
We live in the house directly above the tiny home. We honor your privacy so we won't plan to meet you upon your arrival, UNLESS you would like to meet us and we would be happy to come down to say "Hi"! Occasionally we will need to come down to care for the spa, courtyard or to water the flowers, but we will contact you first before to make sure that it's a good time for us to do those things.
Check in is 4:00 PM and Check out is 11:00 AM. THERE IS A $50 LATE FEE per hour for late check out, unless scheduled in advance.
