A hidden spot in Moscow!

We came to visit our daughter at WSU and needed a place that was close, but not right in town. Came across this carriage house, and it was a great bet! Nice neighborhood and nice people all around, Robyn and Craig especially.The space is quaint and really well done. We enjoyed learning about the history of the property in the book which lines up with the character of the property. Hope to stay again in the future.

The Carriage House is a quiet, cozy, and comfortable stay for one or two. The accommodations are simple and basic - just right for our little getaway. The hosts communicated clearly and had everything ready for our arrival. If you need to steal away for a weekend or a few days of R&R, this is a great choice.

Fantastic little guest house close to downtown

We had a phenomenal time staying at the Carriage House over WSUs move in weekend for our daughter. A great selection of reading books, a very fun and energetic Australian Shepherd and some awesome old trees in the yard. We will be staying here again in the future.

The hosts are so helpful and responsive but not intrusive. The carriage house is cozy and walkable to downtown without having to be in busy hotels. My daughter requests we stay here when we come to Moscow.
