Welcome to the Bedlam Bed and Breakfast in and Sky Harbor International Airport in. The notorious Superstition Wilderness and majestic Four Peaks are easily seen from our patio, while the tall pines of. Arizona's Rim Country is a short drive north. The name Bedlam was chosen when I opened our BB back in the 80's, intending to warn our guests about our four young girls and the pandemonium they caused. The girls are grown and off on their own but the name remains. Nestled high on a hillside acre, our 5,000 square foot southwest territorial home adjoins miles of virgin desert with a horizon full of spectacular views of many mountain ranges. These include the Mazatzals to the north, the 7000 foot high Four Peaks to the east, and the Superstition Mountains to the south as well as close up views of the Sonoran desert with all the abundant wildlife. Hello, I'm your hostess Pam Carlson. My husband Tom and our Jack Russel terriers Lucky and Prudence welcome you to Bedlam Bed and Breakfast. Our home has been a long time dream and labor of love. I have designed and built custom homes in Fountain Hills for the past 18 years and we love our life here in Arizona. Tom grew up on the west side of St. Paul, Minnesota. I grew up on a farm just outside the town of Newport, twenty minutes south of the Twin Cities. We came to Arizona in 1986 where the weather was best for Tom's health. Lucky The Wonder Dog. Our dog Lucky is the actual owner of the Bedlam BB, or so he thinks. He jealously guards the back yard, chasing away the quail or other birds that take a drink from the pool or Koi pond. Oh yes, we also have a hot tub which can be heated upon request. Our other dog Prudence is more cautious. She peeks over the lookout bench trying to spot rabbits or javelina trolling by at dusk, while the sun dances off the peaks and mountains spreading rays of gold, pink and purple. The scene from our patio is a delight for the eyes. Design by 3 Star Media

At the top of the outside staircase you will find the Sunrise room on your left with the wood door. You will definitely wake up on the sunny side in the Sunrise room! Both windows face east. One frames the Four Peaks Mountains. The other window captures the Superstition mountains including Red Rock, the Goldfields and Needle Rock. All these are the home of the Apache Thunder god and of the Legendary Lost Dutchman gold mine. The bright yellow walls create a warm, sunny feeling. A King size homemade Four Poster Log bed adds to the sunny, comfortable decor. We saw a bed just like this in Payson for $2,800. Wow! So we built one ourselves out of Alligator Juniper, pine and worm wood. It took 10 days and 3 chiropractic treatments to finish. With the help of three football players from Fountain Hills High we carried it upstairs where it shall ever remain. Above the Log bed hangs the tanned hide of an elk harvested by daughter, Tiffany, when she was twelve years old. On the south wall we have six framed antique prints of Blackfeet Indians. These are part of a mint condition collection owned by our family. This lantern is a family heirloom. Tom's Grandfather, Nils John Moline (of the founding family of Moline, Illinois), used it to signal the trains of the Luce Line Railroad. There was no track switcher on the line so Nils had to go out every night and signal the trains. You'll feel right at home with a refrigerator and coffeepot, complete private bath, television and telephone, the room is non-smoking with a high-speed wireless internet connection. You'll enjoy the views from the porch swing just outside your door.

Simply put. The mark of any great bed and breakfast is: Would you love to call this place home! We have always loved antiques, collectables and heirlooms, so we wanted a home that was casual and warm, with a lived-in antique shop flare. Among the heirlooms you will find lamps made from an Electrolux vacuum, an old boot and a even a coffeepot. Everywhere you look you'll discover knickknacks with an interesting story to tell. In the living room there is a bubbling plant-skirted fountain with a trumpet horn for a spout. The wood that was used for our doors and cabinets was purchased from a building salvage yard in Phoenix. Hours upon hours of pulling nails, sanding, cutting and finishing brought out a delightful, warm feeling to each room in our home. Our dining room set is an antique and has been in Tom's family since the early 1950's. Many a fish fry have graced this table as it sat in a tiny cabin on Lake Minnetonka in Minnesota. If only the table could talk. A fun part of staying at Bedlam is joining us for a family style breakfast. Breakfast is usually served at 8 a.m. in our dining room.

Diese Miniatur Wildschweine erweitern ihr Gebiet nordwaerts von Mexiko. Strassenbeleuchtung, die den naechtlichen Sternenhimmel beeintraechtigen gibt es in unserer Nachbarschaft nicht, sodass Mond und Sterne in voller Schoenheit strahlen. Mehrere Baeume am Berg ueber unserem Haus, eine Seltenheit in dieser Gegend, dienen als Gastgeber fuer die grossen gehoernten Eulen bei Nacht sowie fuer verschiedene Sorten von Adlern und Raben bei Tag. Wunderschoen behaeuptete Gambel-Wachteln ziehen taeglich an unseren Futterstellen vorbei. Arizona beherbergt ebeufalls die groesste Anzahl von Kolibriarten in Nord-Amerika.
