The third room, known as the Reading Room, offers a convertible sofa (43”x70”) with memory foam mattress and pillow top for additional sleeping options. The 2-piece family room sofa can be configured into a sleeping day bed (6’x4’), as well. Vrbo confirmed that the convertible sofa can be included when factoring the guest/sleep number but the day bed could not. Therefore, the listing states the guest/sleep number as 5, however, there is the possibility to sleep more if they are children…or really small adults ;) Beds are of high quality construction with premium mattresses and hotel quality bedding. The master bathroom features a double sink vessel on a floating vanity, two backlit dimmable mirrors with anti-fogging feature, bidet and walk-in shower with sliding glass barnyard doors. Shower fixtures include a handheld shower head and an overhead rainfall head. A Bluetooth speaker/overhead LED light is also located in the ceiling above the shower floor if playing music in the shower is to your liking.

Silverware and dinnerware set for eight, as well as pantry staples, spices and condiments are provided. A full inventory of all kitchen accessories can be found at the end of this details page. Adjacent to the kitchen is the family room which has a Samsung 61” HD LED TV with Cox premium cable including HBO and Showtime, Netflix and Amazon Prime. The backyard features a non-heated diving swimming pool, gas fire pit filled with blue glass, 7 person half-moon patio furniture set which encompasses the fire pit, 4 person patio dining table with sun umbrella, propane BBQ and hanging party lights which illuminate most of the yard. Under the back patio is a STIGA Advantage Professional table tennis table. A tennis robot automatic ping pong ball machine is also available if guests want to hit against a ball machine. A table tennis ball catch net attaches to the table for ball collection during table tennis robot use. 4 paddles available. For those interested in world culture, history and literature, the Reading Room is all engrossing. A nearly complete collection of every issue of National Geographic Magazine is bound in books and guests are invited and encouraged to immerse themselves in the words and photographs within the pages. There is also an index for the collection which allows specific subjects and keywords to be matched to specific articles and issues. It is kindly requested that the collection be treated with care and respect; some of the issues are over 100 years old. The Reading Room also houses a large collection of books covering a wide range of interesting content; both fiction and non-fiction, the classic to the obscure.

Stayed 6 nights in Apr 2023 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Kevin C. 10 Mar 2025 Liked: Check-in, communication, location Disliked: Cleanliness, listing accuracy #### So disappointing. I can't believe this place was rated 10/10 "Exceptional" when we booked it because we've never been more disappointed with a rental. It will make us question ratings going forward.The bed, pillows, shower mats, sofa blankets, doors, and floors were dirty and the dust in the "library" was terrible. Cups and glasses in the cupboard had residue. We rented this place for a month and wanted to leave an hour after checking in. Spent the first day doing laundry and cleaning. I let Patrick know how disappointed we were and he said he had already ordered a new duvet cover but putting it on would be "complicated". We used the new cover but not the duvet because it was gross.I should have known when I asked him before check-in who we could use for a cleaner when we're there and he said he just does it himself. The closest we got to the pool was to throw some chlorine in. An old house is going to need some TLC and we expected that. But simply being clean is a low bar that this place doesn't clear. Honestly. Yuck. ##### Kevin C. Stayed 28 nights in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Colin P., Calgary, Canada 15 Mar 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Work / Family Trip to Scottsdale My family really enjoyed our stay. The home has a unique retro vibe and we really enjoyed perusing through the collection of records and listening in the music room. We enjoyed a nice fire one evening. The house is fully equipped with pretty much everything you might need. Patrick was very responsive and willing to help make our stay great. ##### Colin P. Stayed 8 nights in Mar 2024
