Pine Canyon retreat

Come relax at our private country home with many wonderful amenities. The 3 bedroom 2.5 bath home sits at the edge of a private cul-de-sac with only one neighbor. Enjoy the country stars at night from your own private hot tub while the kids play in our full sized arcade! Relax with your morning coffee on the covered front deck or soak in the view from the expansive second story master bedroom of the valley made famous by John Steinbeck! Pet friendly (see listing for more details).

The space
Entry: As you exit the drive way you will walk down a path past a little garden to an expansive covered deck with ample seating to enjoy the warm summer nights. Here you will also see the keyless entry into the main house. The downstairs is a loop working around the staircase which leads up to the bedrooms.

Game Room: To the left of the main entrance is our game/living room. Featuring a full sized couch and bench to sit and chat. We have two full sized arcade games, Star Wars and a modified cabinet with 500 classic arcade titles.Here you will also find board games, puzzles, cards and other activities. My Dad was a teacher and he loved kids so in honor of his memory there is a treasure chest with all sorts of toys and we would be honored for your little ones to take something home to remember the trip!

Family Room: To the right of the main entrance is our family room. It has a full size lazy boy couch that folds out into a bed, an electronic leather chair, a 50 inch Smart TV. Here we have a Dyson Fan, one of our high quality fans and heaters available to you throughout the house.

The kitchen itself has a classic antique gas stove, a microwave, full sized refrigerator, a brand new dishwasher, a double sink, an Amazon echo show (for music/news/cooking ideas etc…Alexa how do I fix the chicken I burnt?) lol Next to the fridge is our coffee and tea bar where we stock a variety of gourmet coffee and tea selections for your enjoyment.

Dining Room: Adjacent to the kitchen is the dining room. The table here seats 6 comfortably but we have an additional fold out table that can be set up in the game room to seat up to more 10 people. There is a door at the back of the dining room that leads to the back yard.
