Everything was great! Close to the downtown area which we walked to a few times. Plenty of off street parking. Quiet area. Kitchen was well stocked for our use. Was very clean and comfortable. Nice private outdoor area too. Would be nice to have a place to set things on in the bedrooms besides a luggage rack and a box of Kleenex. Highly recommend staying here!!

Cozy home for Bach party

My friends and I came here for a fun bachelorette party weekend getaway. There was 9 of us and we all had to share beds except one person, but the beds were all bigger sized and very comfortable. 4 parking spots but there is limited availability on side of road! Kitchen was massive and fit all 9 of us around the island! Sadly it rained when we were there, but the backyard was beautiful! Everything was very clean and well taken care of. We did blow a fuse while blow drying all of our hairs haha, but the host Zach answered the phone right away and talked me through it. Very nice Hosts. Great location, everything walking distance and/or just a 2 min drive to downtown! Would definitely come back here!

Stillwater Getaway

There were four adults in our group and we enjoyed our stay at this comfortable, conveniently located property. Great indoor/outdoor spaces. The location was perfect for walking to explore the historic downtown and to access the Lift bridge hiking trail. Zach was very quick to respond to my questions and also provided great recommendations for dining options and local attractions. Would definitely stay here again!

Lovely girls weekend

We stayed at this property April 26-28th. We were four women celebrating a birthday. The four bedrooms worked well for us. Comfy beds. Floating shelves as nightstands with extension cords for easy access to charge phones. I think only one room had a closet and mirror. Not a big deal for us though. Bathrooms were spacious. And well lit. Home was beautifully decorated and smelled new. We enjoyed the kitchen and living area. Electric fireplace was used. Coffee and filters supplied. Coffee shop across street had great scones! We wished the weather would have cooperated…there was a fire pit in backyard and a grill. We had thought about walking downtown…however coming back involved a hill and three of us were dealing with leg ailments 😏. Overall - we loved Stillwater and this hidden gem was delightful!
