The Hennessy House

The Hennessy House is Rob Pike's Second Home.

The Hennessy House living room has a number of marvelous amenities. First, you will notice that the fireplace is built into the bay wall with the deep window seats. The fireplace is gas-fired and can be operated by flicking two switches on the right of the enclosure. Easy on the eyes and the back!

The entertainment and sound system is also here, featuring a powerful AM/FM stereo receiver, a CD/DVD Player that can handle MP3's. All is integrated with the television,

You get 5 free DVD's of recent great hits to play,without having to hit the rental shop.

On either side of the fireplace are deep window seats with two futons which can be used for sleeping if the bedrooms get a bit crowded. There are also two futon couches in the living room and sports bar areas which can be converted into full size beds. The sheets and extra quilts and pillows for these futons are located in storage chest located against the wall in the sports bar.

The new Couch in front of the fireplace is particulary comfortable (and convertible too)

Oh, and check this out...

The Sports Area

The pool table is a full size slate base beauty, with restored barnwood sides and a natural wood finish (like much of the house.)

Oh and that door way on the right wall leads outside to

The Outdoor Hot Tub

The Kitchen

The Kitchen is fully equipped with a coffee maker, toaster, microwave, dishwasher, oven, stove and refrigerator. There are several sets of dishes and cooking pots and pans.

Downstairs Bath

On the far wall of the kitchen to the right there is a passageway to the first floor bathroom with a washer, dryer, toilet, sink, tub and shower. This services guests, and the folks who end up staying in the Living room.

Dining Room

Through the opening from the kitchen, you will arrive in a well-equipped dining room. The sideboard has china in it, and a pile of vacation brochures and suggestions on top.

We've had some darn good parties here, and as you can see one room flows right into the next. So even if the party "always ends up in the Kitchen," there is a natural flow of friends and family into the rest of the house.

Second Floor

Going up the staircase, there’s a small landing which splits so you can travel either to the left or to the right. To the right are two bedrooms (beds with futon mattresses).

This one has an attached bath with a shower, sink and toilet, and a vanity sink in the bedroom (Master 1).

The other bedroom has a vanity sink in the room and a closet for storage. If you turn to the left at the landing, there is a half bath directly ahead with a toilet and sink; and a bunk bedroom to the right.

The Third bedroom on the second floor is the Bunk Room. It has two sets of bunks.

To the left is a passageway, going towards the third floor, which contains the newest facility of the Hennessey House.

The Hot Tub Room has been replaced

It's now the XBox Room

That's right, toss those little noisemakers in this hermitically sealed room, with a brand new XBox, and the new Halo 2, Madden NFL 2005, and Tony Hawks Skateboard adventures..

Third Floor

If you continue up to the right out of the hot tub, you will ascend a renovated old staircase to two more bedrooms. At the top of the staircase, there is a master bedroom on your left with an in-room vanity. A toilet and a shower are in a small private side room (Master 2).

To the right is another master bedroom, featuring a full sized bed, a futon couch (which converts into a full sized bed) and a bathroom with a whirlpool bath, a vanity and a toilet (Master 3).

Oh, and by the way....

The Owner’s Office

There’s a completely separate part of the Hennessy House which was on the right as you entered the kitchen.

While you are staying here, the owner's Pike's Peaks, Your Mountain Home office is physically and acoustically isolated from the main building, and has a separate entrance. This area is unavailable to you, except for the Xmas week rental (he's in Florida) and is used by the owner as his office.
