In the full private bathroom, you’ll find towels and toiletries to meet your needs. Please note that you must use the trashcan provided to dispose of all toilet paper and toiletry items to avoid clogging the system.
•OUTSIDE•
The casita is situated on 10 acres of open land, inviting you to explore and immerse yourself in nature. As you wander around, keep an eye out for fascinating rocks and fossils.
There is a fire pit and anti-gravity chairs that fully recline to provide the ultimate night sky viewing. There is also a disc golf basket with discs to practice your throws while you grill.
Remember to bring your own wood, charcoal, and lighter fluid!
•OFF GRID•
This is an off grid home that is powered by the sun. That being said it does have limitations; please do not expect to charge your electric car. In the event of excessive cloudy weather we do have an alternative method to charge the batteries.
•WATER CONSERVATION•
This is the Chihuahuan Desert, water is scarce and of utmost importance. We collect all of our water during monsoon season. You have to conserve water if you stay here. It's as easy as turning the faucet off while you brush your teeth and taking quick showers.
•FIRE SAFETY•
Fire extinguishers are located under the kitchen sink and on the center post outside. If you have a camp fire please be mindful of fire safety. Do not have a fire if winds are high. The desert is a dry place and fires can spread very easily and very quickly. NEVER leave a fire unattended and be sure to EXTINGUISH all flames when you are finished.
