Comfy bed for better sleep

The room-darkening blinds and extra bedding are loved by guests.
Enjoy expansive desert and mountain views, wildlife, and quiet privacy in my beautiful custom retreat. Gourmet dine-in kitchen, two-person jetted tub, cozy wood stove, and hiking trails right outside the door will make you want to stay forever! Beautiful space to rejuvenate.

The space
This is a fully custom 1100sqft home handcrafted by the owner and her father with custom tiles throughout, vaulted ceilings, private patio, and charm for days. Located on 17 + acres and surrounded by public land, the location is very private and quiet.
