About this house rental

Welcome to Shady Acres!

+ This home has high-speed Wi-Fi internet.
+ Bring the whole family - this house is dog-friendly (max 20 lb, please).
+ Efficient heating system and 2 "Evaporative Cooling Systems" - An evaporative cooler lowers the air temperature by passing outdoor air over water-soaked pads and then pulling the cooled evaporated air into the home. Evaporative cooling systems can be used effectively in the dry desert air of Mesa County. Operating instructions are included in the home, but it does require a window or two to be cracked open to allow for circulation. This cooling effect will achieve similar home temperatures as other forms of cooling; however, the air may feel more humid and be louder (due to the fan) than refrigerated air units.
