Xbox will play DVD/Blu-rays as well as a guest gaming account. There are a few DVDs on site you can watch too. House location- It is located about a mile from interstate highway so you can hear road noise out front. You cannot see the interstate as it is not located on the highway. I notice noise less out back and I do not notice inside. It is also located in Doolittle, which is about 5 miles from Rolla, one exit west of Rolla. Please look at listing map to see approximate location. House style- This house is a practical house, not a posh house. It works well for me and has also for most guests. There are storage shelves as is pictured in the listing in the main area. I am realizing people have very different views on this, some people love the eclectic nature of Raven House so much that they actually "rave" about it. Please review the images provided to make sure this listing suits you. Please only book Raven House if you feel you can appreciate and enjoy your stay. I welcome guests and find being part of their lives in this way meaningful. Cleanliness- I clean this house with my mother 5 to 8 hours after each stay to make sure it is nice for you. Even when it LOOKS clean we clean it then sanitize it. Because of this time involved we do charge a cleaning fee and ask you to leave it in the condition of arrival. Extra guests- Linens, bedding, and towels for the 7th to 10th people will only be present when booked for the larger group size in advance booking. Reminder these extra 2-4 people can be hosted on an air mattress/s you set up and couch & folding chair in the living room space. Please consider if this sleeping arrangement is desirable for your group. Reminder there is only 1 bathroom. Advertised price on listing is for 1 to 4 registered guests, each added guest is + $10 per day. All guests must be on the booking. Water fun- If going to a water activity such as boating, lake, swimming please bring towels along or use only the colorful towels in the laundry area. Be sure not to lose them! Hunters- If hunting/fishing no dressing of animals can be done on site at guest house inside or outside. Please make arrangements to process catch/harvest offsite. Following stay home, appliances, and grounds need to be in same condition as arrival. Personal coolers need to be used to store meat. Trash-We cannot accept extra trash/discarded materials beyond typical household trash and recycling from your stay. I must pack all trash to my home trash service in my car to another city so no excessive or messy trash can be left. Please bag trash before placing in trash cans. Ratings- Reviews are important to me. You can see the location on the map and the photos of the listing. These are actual photos. This is Raven House Hobby House and Guest House. This is my personal second home I share with others when I am not using it. It is designed for me and my family, but when I decided to offer to other guests too I also designed it for you. I thought about things a traveler would want and need, a comfy bed with Zinus Green Tea Memory Foam 12 inch mattress, clean fresh linens, lamps at bedside tables, soft bright white towels, spa style waffle robes, hair dryers in each room, room darkening curtains, extra plush blankets, soft rug beside the bed, sound machines and fans in each room, earplugs, toiletries, a couple extra toothbrushes, a generous amount of coffee grounds, tea, bottled water and various snacks, a picnic table outside on the covered porch to sit and watch the wildlife. This listing is appreciated by most and that makes me feel really happy to share it. I really try to make this a great stay. If you know it is not right for you because of price, location, or style please choose something that You will love. I do love my home and my guests! Thanks, Cynthia
