About this property

Historic Downtown Cottage

**Astoria is currently undergoing a construction boom all over town so there may be some construction noise during the day.

Live like a local in this quaint, 1930's restored two bedroom house located in historic downtown Astoria. Just steps from the original settlement in the historic district, our cottage is within a few blocks of the Columbia River Maritime Museum, the Heritage Museum, the Ft. George brewery, the Bow Picker and the riverwalk. This cottage features off street parking (a rare find in downtown), laundry and a full kitchen. Park your car and walk to everything.
We are available to respond to guests needs through the app and have also posted phone numbers at the property.
This 1930's cottage is located in Astoria's historic district where a variety of beautifully restored Victorian, Mediterranean, Tudor and Craftsman homes and buildings can be seen.
We offer a secure keyless code entry that will be unique to every booking. We live very close and are available if the need arises. We provide a house manual with suggestions for activities, restaurants and house rules.

Although we accept pets, we charge an additional fee of $20/pet/night (max 2 pets allowed) to accommodate for the additional cleaning required.

Please note that there are 8 stairs to the front door.

In The Heart of Everything

My small family had a blast staying in Astoria in this cottage. Easy walk to most everything we were interested in and a very short drive to the nearby grocery store.

Had a wonderful stay in the cottage! Check in instructions were clear and proactive. The cottage felt homey and welcoming, and I really appreciated all the extra touches like toiletries/hair dresser in the bathroom, cooking spices and cleaning supplies in the kitchen, and laundry detergent and clear instructions for using the washer. It was also a great location, walkable to the main blocks of downtown Astoria, and having offstreet parking was a nice to have convenience. Would definitely enjoy coming back for a longer stay.

Great Cottage!

We were so pleased with this cottage. It’s in a great location to walk to almost everything in town. The cottage is nicely decorated and fully equipped with everything you would need. What a treat it was to come back from town to 4 deer chilling in the front lawn. I highly recommend this place on your next visit.

Fantastic location and home!

We came for a one night stay, and this house and location was excellent. Everything was just as described, we were able to walk a few blocks to dinner downtown, and walked around the neighborhood in the evening. Communication with the host was great, and we’ll stay here again in the future if we can!

Stay in VRBO

The place was very comfortable and spacious. The kitchen had everything (except a steamer basket) that anyone could want. The beds were comfortable as well. So, I was very happy with the place and the parking was right by the front door!

Great little in town location for couple with dogs

Nice stay, perfect for us. Only consideration might be for individuals that cannot do stairs, for us the house was perfect. Was great to,have a space so walkable with great parking that did not share walls with anyone that allowed our two large dogs. Rare find.

Perfect Location in Astoria

This cute and cozy light filled cottage was just perfect for a quick overnight stay. Super clean, comfortable beds and the charm of Astoria too. Great neighborhood to walk and view the old homes- so fun. We walked to Fort George for dinner after a day of exploring the many antique shops. Very responsive and accommodating owner as well. Love Astoria!!

Perfect get away for the weekend! We enjoyed all of adorable and historic Astoria within steps just outside our door. Bakeries to breweries, the film museum and all along the Columbia River. Truly a wonderful escape and so comfortable to enjoy such a perfectly layed out home with charm and comfort.

Great location for walking to most things in Astoria. Anything we couldn’t walk to, the trolley could take us! Great spot, would absolutely stay there again. Can’t beat the views of the river and had multiple visits from deer in the yard!

Great location

The cottage was a perfect size for 4. We enjoyed it a lot. We didn't spend a ton of time at the cottage but the beds (even the roll away cot) were very comfortable. It was clean, light & bright, and the location is really great. Hoping to be back soon :)

Charming house with character.

This property was perfect for me and my family. Very clean with lots of character. The only downside was the lack of a view. I would stay again if given the opportunity.

Close to beach and cute town

The property was perfect. We had our own "private" yard for our dog Lilly to play fetch in. Loved that the cottage was off the street and quiet. We had plenty of fun in a few short days. Would have stayed longer if we could.
