Guest Access:
No stairs! :) You have the entire house, and our extra lot for outside games. Very quick & easy access off Highway 40. Rather quiet area of town, especially inside the home because of the Brick Construction.
The Neighborhood:
Easy to find, we are on the corner! Just look for the double gate entrance to the ranch.
o Walking distance or a very short drive to Historic Downtown Williams.
o Easy access to I-40.
o Low traffic noise, especially inside the home.
Getting Around:
Lots of walking options and many parking spots for Historic Downtown Williams, and so many other businesses/conveniences very close by.
**Onsite RV parking**
Other Things to Note:
*Care*:
This is our Home-Away-From-Home, so we hope you'll cherish it as much as we do. We try to keep it Clean & Allergy-free, with non-harsh chemicals.
-The butcher block counter tops are beautifully stained with Food-Grade Tung Oil, as are the two big butcher block cutting boards.
-The closet doors are old, so be gentle when opening and closing.
-For the washer, please use only 1 pod, or suds will leak out onto the floor.
*Safety*:
-ALL outlets are upgraded to "Tamper-Proof" outlets. Electrical panel was upgraded as well.
-This is a historical ranch site: We've done our best to clean, fix, and update to make everything safe. Please be aware there may still be some old ranch material left on the property.
-The Gazebo with the picnic table is not very tall, so if you're around 5'10" or taller, just watch your head when you are under there. (we have plans to lift it in the future)
-In winter, while we try to shovel the snow, be aware the ground around the home and sidewalks may be icy.
-Play on the 'little train' in the extra lot at your own risk. Our kids play on it because we think it looks safe, yet we don't know if sharp edges are present.
*Hide-And-Seek* :)
Can you find "Sebastian", our little porcelain resident sheep, in the home??? (see pic)
If you find him, feel free to take a picture with him, and write about it in the Little Sheep Log Book on the side table in the living room!
*Time to Eat!*
Ring the triangle on the side porch when it's time to eat!
*TV's*
Big living room TV can angle off the wall a bit, so you can watch straight on whether you're on the couch or in the kitchen.
*Shower*
PLEASE squeegee the shower walls and glass door after showering because water deposits will build up.
*Snow
The snow shovels are in by the 2 sheds, if needed.
*About Us*
We are a silly family who enjoys meeting great people from different places. We love sports, singing, art, and adventure. In business, we go to great lengths to benefit others' lives, so that all of us can thrive together.
We've learned many lessons in life, and hope to empower others by sharing our experiences in natural healing & personal growth (Tony Robbins). We chose this Home-Away-From-Home in Williams, AZ because it's close to the Grand Canyon, great location near downtown, huge lot size for our kids to play, and the real history of this old ranch. Such a fun town!: so much history, nature attractions, good food, and family events.
Our huge renovation took a while, but now it's clean and comfy for others to enjoy too. We hope you love it as much as we do. :)
Interaction with Guests:
Please feel free to contact us for any questions or concerns that you may have.
We will be on standby 24 hours a day in case of emergency.
