The House

The house is in north Apple Valley along the rocky ridge above the Mojave River just north of the Upper Narrows. It overlooks the Victor Valley with views of Mount Baldy and the back sides of Big Bear Lake and Lake Arrowhead. The house is a single-story ranch style home with 4 Bedrooms, 2.5 Baths and is just under 3,000 square feet. After construction was completed in 1999, we moved in. It has a pool and spa. The house is in a quiet gated community. We branch off a dead-end street and are located on a cul-de-sac so there is very little vehicle traffic.

For rent you get a fully furnished private room, dedicated bathroom, and shared access to much of the house. This includes extensive furnishings and appliances. We provide all bed, bath, and kitchen linens though you are expected to wash your own. Please refer to the floor plan to see the layout and bedroom numbers.

The rental includes your room (Bedroom 4) with all its amenities detailed below, the Guest Bathroom (Bath 2) dedicated to your use, and full access to the following shared areas inside the house: a well-equipped Kitchen, Breakfast Nook with coffee/tea bar, Laundry Room, Family Room with exercise equipment, Living Room, Hallway, Entry, and the Half Bathroom. You can access the Den (Bedroom 2) as needed only to access the network printer. The previous formal Dining area was converted to office space and is not available for your use. Not open for your use is the Master Bedroom with its closet and bathroom, the Massage Room (Bedroom 3 with its closet), and the garage. The Den and shared areas except bathrooms are covered by security cameras.

The house has central air conditioning and central heating. We normally set the thermostat to cool to 74-76 degrees Fahrenheit in the summer. Your room also has an individual room heater. The fireplace in the family room is nice in the winter. We use central heating if the outside temperature is around 30 degrees Fahrenheit.
