Nice and Comfortable Historic Cottage

My family and I stayed here for a few days before traveling out of state. We enjoyed our time in the cottage and the host was very accommodating! Would stay here again if we are ever in the area.

Great Getaway Location

We had a great stay at this location. The house was clean, and comfortable, and it felt like a home away from home. The bedrooms were cozy & having the play room & extra bed in the same room was awesome for our son, and helped him feel comfortable in an unfamiliar location. We appreciated the condiments available also. We would definitely come back!

very handy location

Very quaint house, but clean and appreciated the retro vibe. Seemed a bit high priced, but we don't usually stay in BnBs so maybe I just am not the person to judge. Pleasant management and very accommodating. Overall, we had a great time in the little house.

Best little cottage!

I meant to leave a review last year! I came here for peace and quiet as my husband had just died. It was the most peaceful and charming spot for me. The backyard garden was an oasis! I came home in better spirits for sure. It was clean and well stocked and the host was excellent!

Cute place to enjoy family time.

Host was awesome to deal with. Comfy place with well equipped kitchen. Enjoyed coffee on the patio surrounded by lovely flowers. Nice place for a dog to stay with the fenced backyard. Sugar ants were an issue in the kitchen and had to toss food out including container of dog food outside. Bring extra fans for the upstairs loft as it was warm but had a fun play area.

Perfect Spot for Your Vancouver Visit!

This little house is the perfect home base for your Washington/Oregon trip! The place had everything you need for comfort and relaxation. The kitchen was well appointed with everything needed to cook. The backyard patio was a definite bonus! The upstairs bedroom is perfect for kids, or if you are traveling with a small family. There is a first floor queen bedroom for parents or grandparents. The house is located near shopping and restaurants. The owners were very helpful and quick to respond with any questions we had. I would absolutely recommend!!!!

Stay in Vancouver WA

There were 3 adults, we were in the area for a family wedding. The location (proximity to airport and where we needed to travel) was great. The neighborhood was an older residential area. Not far from downtown Vancouver which is a nice town. Close to grocery stores, places to eat. The interior of the house was as posted. It's an older home with charm, especially if you like older homes. The hosts were very responsive. The check in process was easy and we got an earlier check in time. Check out was also a breeze, they did not require any specific clean up. If you don't want to stay in downtown Portland, consider Vancouver WA.
