We do have high-speed internet (wifi) throughout the house. Two TVs (one in the main living space, one in the master) both have Apple TVs capable of streaming Netflix, Amazon Video, Sling, etc. The main TV has Hulu Live loaded so you can always find something to watch and HBO is included!

ADDITIONAL INFO Please note that the main living space is on the top level; guests will need to climb a flight of stairs to access the kitchen, living room, master suite, and deck. The views from the second floor are amazing! Like many mountain homes, our house does not have air conditioning. On hot summer afternoons the second floor can get warm; however, by running the ceiling fans and opening the windows in the evening, the house will be cool by bedtime. Our home is family friendly with baby gate, bed guard on bunk, pack and play, kids toys, stuffed toys, children's books, and toddler plates and utensils. All we ask in return if you bring your family is that you respect our home as if it were your own. We want our house to be as welcoming and inviting to our guests as it is to our family. Ground level: three bedrooms, one bathroom, laundry room, double garage. Second level: master bedroom/bathroom, powder room, kitchen, living room, deck. GUEST ACCESS You'll have access to the entire home (minus the small owner's closet). WHAT TO DO IN SALIDA?
