One of these bedrooms also has a work space for that one person who has those last minute or impromptu assignments on vacation. There is a full kitchen, dining area with a table that seats six, living room with flat screen tv, record player, and books. There is a propane bbq grill for those grill masters and outdoor seating. The garage fits one car and the driveway and on-site parking fits an additional four to five vehicles.

House rules

Thank you for choosing our home. Relax, enjoy, meditate, workout, or do nothing at all. This house is owned by a certified Reiki Master Teacher and a Sous Chef who both want you to experience the peaceful energy of the home. If you would like remote Reiki or meditation sessions on your visit, contact me directly. In the meantime, there are a few items around the house that may be used to clear and cleanse within.

Here are some helpful home tips:

1. The fire place is wood burning and not available for use. Repeat, DO NOT use the fireplace. The house has central heating and air. The main control is located in the bedroom hallway. Simply choose setting, heat or air, then press the arrows up or down on the far right to control the temperature. Please do not set a timer. Each time you leave the house, turn off the heat/air.

2. The patio door must have the latch in the middle position when closed in order for it to close and lock properly. Simply push the latch until the lock is in the middle. Close the door and the lock should catch, closing the door completely. Once it is closed, push down the latch and it’s locked. Upon booking confirmation, I can send pic if needed.

3. There are cleaning supplies under every sink, if needed. Also extra supplies are in the garage on the shelf near the door.

4. Please do not touch any of the tools in the garage. We are not liable for self inflicted injury based on personal negligence. This is a healing house, let’s keep it injury free.

5. There are two ceiling fan remote controls. One for the living room ceiling fan/light and a second for the master bedroom ceiling fan/light. You won’t need the remote for the living room. You can use the living room light switch. For the bedroom, you will need to use the remote which is located on the glass stand. Please place remotes back in their designated place at the end of your stay.

6. Do not touch/use the swamp cooler control located on the wall near the kitchen and dining area. Only use the central air/heat control in the middle of the hallway near the bedrooms.

7. There is a house manual on the kitchen table with local ordinances, menus, guides, etc.

8. No smoking at all inside the house and garage. If you smoke, do so on the back patio or outside in the front of the house. I’m highly sensitive to smoke and slightly allergic. Thank you for understanding.

9. If you use a cast iron pan, please do not place in the dishwasher. Hand wash with light soap and dry immediately or it will rust. Also, please do not place anything in the garbage disposal. Use the trash can inside or outside the household. Guest are responsible for any damages. Note that some cast iron pans have not been seasoned and some pots/pans may be new.

10. The bbq grill may be used, but if you don’t know how to use it, please don’t try. There is a George Foreman grill in the kitchen that is a good second choice. If you choose to use the grill, be sure to clean it properly afterwards.

11. The side area of the house near the propane tank is off limits. This is a safety precaution.

12. There is a path on the right side of the house near the wash/ditch that leads to the top of the mountain and around it. There is also a small trail near the mountain. Feel free to go for a hike, but watch out for desert creatures and bristly bushes.

13. The house has a security alarm and cameras. The alarm will be off during your stay, but the outside cameras will remain operational. For your privacy, no cameras will be observed while you are at the Reiki House or after. There are no cameras inside the house.

14. You may bring two dogs only. Any more than two animals must be approved by owners in advance. If you bring your animals/pets, none are allowed on the furniture. There is a crate with bedding for your pet to rest inside or bring bedding for your animal. The blankets and sheets in the house are for humans only. There are towels in the garage for your pet. There are also bowls for food and water and a few toys.

15. There are coyotes and bobcats in the desert, so remain with your pet at all times outside. There is an enclosed backyard and a side enclosure, but please don’t leave your pet alone.

16. Upon booking request, you acknowledge that you will be staying in the desert where there are wild animals. By requesting a reservation, you release the owners from any liability, legal and otherwise, to you, any invited guests, known or unknown, and any pets, for any injury or loss due to natural causes resulting from desert life or negligence on your part.

The space

The entire place has a peaceful vibe and positive energy. Each of the three bedrooms has its own unique feel to it. The living room has plenty of seating for watching tv, reading, meditating, or just taking a nap. The kitchen is fully stocked and you are welcome to use any additional items in the cabinets.

There is also a washer and dryer in the garage along with a few games and an artificial green with a few golf clubs to practice your putting. The backyard itself is spacious with a beautiful view of nature. Relax on the patio with a nice liquid of choice while taking in the skyline.

The entire property is .53 acres of land. It truly is a great place to de-stress and catch your breath. Be aware that you’re in the desert with desert wildlife. The yard is enclosed, but if you bring a pet, I recommend keeping a close eye or remaining outside with your fur baby.

Owner

I am the creator of KA Reiki, a Holy Fire III Karuna Reiki Master Teacher, a writer, and Founder of IMREIKINOW, an energy healing company in Los Angeles. My Reiki handbook, “Reiki Vibrations with 33 Meditations & Affirmations” is available online for those who want to know more about Reiki and energy healing. My goal is to help people learn how to be their true self with Reiki. My life partner is a talented Sous Chef, a skater, and a voracious reader of Cormac. We love our desert oasis. It is a healing house for us and our doggie, William Wallace. We want to share this peaceful home with everyone. This is a great space for those persons who want to relax and to reconnect with their inner self and nature. It is also great for doggies who need a huge enclosed back yard to stretch their legs. Our Wallace is a terrier mix, but he manages to cover all corners of the yard while I chase him. It’s a fun place and we enjoy hanging out here. Our home is also a peaceful getaway where healing sessions, Reiki certifications, and meditation sessions take place, so the good energy is at high levels. We are all about having a happy and peaceful life and always enjoy meeting people who feel the same. We live in a quiet neighborhood surrounded by nature and wildlife so it is also a great space for my fellow dog owners, creatives, traveling nurses, families, outdoorsmen, business people, weekend vacationers, life travelers, etc. We simply adore this home and community. We hope you also feel the same way during your stay.
