The Bedlam Name
The name Bedlam was chosen when I opened our B&B 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.
Meet The Carlsons
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 B&B, 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.
