Everything is new inside the 1958 Airstream Land Yacht. The private bathroom is a few steps off the front patio with a shower, toilet, sink & heater.
Internet service and wifi calling at bungalow.
The new "TUFF & NEEDLE" Queen bed is very comfortable. There's a gas barbecue on the patio and gas heater, cook top stove, mid-sized fridge inside & separate freezer on patio, coffee maker, french press, toaster, micro-wave, Air Fryer, Crock Pot, dishes and cooking utensils. It has a new quiet split unit AC & heater.
TV for streaming (make sure you bring your passwords for streaming) there's also a Blue Ray DVD player and a large selection of movies.
The washer/dryer is two galvanized tubs and an old fashion hand ringer (see photo's) and a clothesline for drying, just like grandma use to do!
If you are staying 5 days or longer I'm happy to do a load for you at the house.
There's a covered patio connected to the front of the Airstream, with a table and chairs and the outside heater for the cooler nights. Dine inside the Airstream or out. It's fully furnished with bedding and towels and all the amenities one needs. There's your private deck built into the red rocks with 2 lounging chairs, (Great spot if you wanted massages.)
There's also 2 chairs up in the red rocks above the bungalow with wonderful views.
There's also a BOCCE COURT, DART BOARD, OBSTACLE MINIATURE GOLF & CROQUET. It's a shared play area with the "CANYON HIDEOUTCABIN.
The Airstream and bathroom are tucked into the red rocks under one of the oldest Juniper trees recorded. It has a very private backyard area with 2 hammocks, picnic table, benches and umbrella in a very natural setting. This is a hiker's paradise with miles of hiking trails into the "Canyon of the Ancients National Monument" right out your bungalow door. There is a tipi we own in the main canyon on a beautiful overlook. If available you are welcome to use the tipi. You would need sleeping bags and pads if you wanted to venture out for a night under the stars. It's about a 25 minute hike from the bungalow.
There's mountain biking at Sand Canyon or Phil's World nearby. SORRY, NO KIDS UNDER 18 OR PETS.

Guest access
There are many canyons and side canyons and a year-round creek with a variety of trees, wild flowers, cacti, birds, animals and trails you have access to. There is a horse trail on the property and a wonderful dry wash to hike that will take you into many side canyons. During the monsoons, there are wonderful waterfalls cascading off the cliffs and spectacular lightning storms that roll through in the summer. If you like climbing, the red rocks have many areas to discover and alcoves with thousand plus year old ruins. I am also a site monitor for 8 ruins in the backcountry that is accessed from our property. This is an area that is protected from public access but your stay here will give you that access.
I have an agreement with the others involved here in the community that in order for me to host Airbnb I CAN"T HAVE KIDS OR PETS. The community is a protected Wildlife Preserve which adjoins “Canyon of the Ancients National Monument.” All of us living here don’t have pets for that reason. We also keep the cabin/bungalow allergy & dander free for our guests and the person that cleans who is highly allergic to dander.
If you need help in finding another place close by that takes pets I would be happy to check a few places.
