There is a small dining table by the kitchen. The main bedroom features a queen bed, ceiling fan, and large windows with mountain views. There is also a queen bed in the sleeping loft. We recommend the loft for kids. Adults are welcome to use it, but the sloping ceiling can make access a little awkward, especially persons with limited mobility.
