We will generally leave our guests to be but live in the area so we are available should issues arise.
This home is located in the Elephant Rocks Golf Community. Elephant Rocks Golf Course is a popular 18-hole golf course located just south of Williams. It's known for its scenic views, challenging holes, and the unique red rock formations that resemble elephant heads, hence the name "Elephant Rocks." The course offers a picturesque setting in the midst of northern Arizona's natural beauty.
The house is about 5 minutes from downtown Williams and is an easy drive to grocery stores and restaurants.
Walk up the stairs from the entrance and you will find our cute little studio located in the trees with lots of natural light. We've got a small kitchenette for warming up food, but would recommend visiting some of the close by restaurants for larger meals.
We recommend a car for the Williams area.
This studio is located about the garage of the main home. It has it's own private entrance and has no shares space (with the exception of the driveway) with guests in the main house. Because it is above the garage there are about 15 stairs getting up to the room. If you don't do well with stairs we would recommend avoiding.
People love to visit Northern Arizona for its cooler temperatures in the summer and playing in the snow in the winter. We feel lucky to live here and like getting to share this with you, but snow in the winter can cause some logistical obstacles. As hosts, we will do our very best to keep pathways and driveways clear for guests, but it's not uncommon for Flagstaff to receive a foot or two of snow in a short period of time and this makes snow removal a challenge. Snow does create some obstacles for hosts and guests alike, so we want to be sure guests can know what to expect from us during the snowier times of year and what we in return ask of our guests.
1) Guests can expect that prior to their arrival the driveway and paths to the home have been plowed at some point during the day of their arrival. However, if the driveway is plowed in the morning and more snow falls between morning time and check in you may arrive to the day's accumulation of snow on the drive. Guests can either drive over the snow or clear the snow with shovels provided. We only are able to do snow removal once a day. We do our very best to time our snow removal at the end of storms, but it doesn't always work out that way.
2) THE BERMS! Any and every Flagstaff or Williams resident dreads the berm removal. What is the berm? The berm is a pile of snow at the end of your driveway caused by the snowplows pushing the snow from the streets to the side. There is nothing worse than shoveling your entire driveway only to have the plow come by and make a big berm you now have to clear before you can leave. We ALL dread the berm. As hosts we have NO WAY of knowing when the plows will come by. Because of this, it is possible that guests will arrive to a plowed driveway with a Berm at the end. If this happens guests will need to either drive over the berm (vehicle dependent) or use the provided shovels to make enough of an entry for your car to get through. Our snow removal crew will be around within the next 24 hours to take care of the rest. We are not a hotel with full time snow removal, so should you arrive during a snowstorm please know we are doing our best.
3) Finally, something we love about Flagstaff is the sun after the snow, BUT this does mean the snow melts during the day and the wet turns into ice at night. We have a bucket with ice melt our guests are welcome to use on icy areas. Please only use it if there is ice as the salt is not good for the cement and trees. Also use sparingly as a little salt goes a long way.
