Quaint Downtown Cottage

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



Enjoy the  fantastic proximity to downtown while staying at our quiet and comfortable Quaint Downtown Cottage. Just steps from the original settlement in the historic district, our cottage is within a few blocks of multiple museums, restaurants, the Ft. George and other breweries, the Bow Picker and the riverwalk. This cottage features off street parking (a rare find in downtown), laundry and kitchen. Park your car,  and walk to everything.



Our one bedroom cottage can sleep 2 persons in the bedroom (queen bed), 2 more on the fantastic Murphy bed (queen) in the living room and another person on the pull out bed (twin) within the ottoman. All beds have quality, well supported memory foam mattresses. We have a full kitchen (fully stocked) and bathroom. Situated in the historic district our cottage was rebuilt in 1980 but is surround by beautiful historic architecture while maintaining a large green space.



Usage of the sidewalk and stairs to Exchange Street is allowed while maintaining quiet respect for  the long-term tenants in the adjacent/close apartment building.  The large lawn beacons, but because of a 7ft drop to Exchange Street we require guests and their pets to stay within the boundary of the fence.



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.



Live like a local while staying in our Quaint Downtown Cottage and enjoy being located in Astoria's historic district where a variety of beautifully restored Victorian, Mediterranean, Tudor and Craftsman homes and buildings can be seen.



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

Cozy house, ideal location

My son, dog and I had a great stay for the weekend. The home had everything we needed. Fantastic location—we easily walked everywhere. On our first day, I accidentally locked us out of the house and had to contact owner who came by within 10 min to get us back in. We loved our stay and would stay here again!

Nice Spot in Astoria

Great location and a great view. Within easy walking distance of downtown and waterfront Astoria, though you do have to climb a bit to get back to the house. Quiet at night, good off street parking. I'd prefer a king sized bed but you can't have everything. I would definitely stay here again.

So comfortable!

This property is perfectly located for easy walking to the museum, shopping, and restaurants. Very nicely appointed kitchen, extremely comfortable bed, great bath towels, delicious coffee, and a kind, responsive host. This was our first trip to Astoria and we were surprised by the quaint quirkiness of the city. We dined at Silver Salmon on Commercial Street and give it rave reviews as well. The Column is worth the effort and $5 parking fee. We will happily stay on this property, if we find ourselves back in Astoria! Thank you!

Charming spot for an Astoria visit

The house is in a wonderful location to walk to anywhere in town, and has great river views. I was very impressed with how clean and organized it he space was. Lots of thoughtful details in the living room of furniture pieces with multiple uses. Communication with the hosts was also prompt. Love having a little green space around the property as well.

Disappointed…

The good stuff - we were able to check in early, the w/d worked, the view out the front window was good and the location was central to things. The not good - cost. And the place is tired and worn. My college dorm room was cleaner and nicer. There is not a coffee maker as the listing states, just an electric kettle and the “drip cup” which the owner said was their “coffee system”. There is a distinct musty/stale odor in the house and when hoping to air out by opening windows, found the only window with a screen was not able to be opened. You have to be standing in front of the window to get the great view. There is only one end table in LR and only 1 bedside table in BR yet there is room for both. If you are on the “not side”, your phone, glasses and water are on the floor. The sheets are thin and worn and the towels equally worn. The only fan found was very dirty. The cloth seats to the table were dirty and needed cleaning. There was dog hair on the only place to sit in the LR. The kitchen is poorly stocked and unsure I would want to cook or eat in the place. It was missing very simple conveniences and niceties with would cost the owner very little and made all the difference. We were so disappointed, especially based on prior posted reviews and the $$$$ price. For what this place cost, it should have and easily could have been comfortable. In hindsight, the Hampton Inn would have been better and about 1/2 the cost.

Sweet little cottage in a great spoy

Lovely little one-bedroom/one-bath with a murphy bed in the living room. Great, well equipped kitchen, which we didn't need to use much of. Would have liked to see a Keurig/Pod type coffee maker, or at least directions/measurements for the drip-coffee (never used that kind and made it waaaay too strong, lol). Toilet seat needs updating as it's loose/wiggly. Lovely water pressure in the shower! Great spot to set off on foot and walk the city and you can see the river from the front window. Comfy couch, comfy bed, lots of pillows and blankets. We did find it very chilly and ran the heat our whole stay. It can be a little tricky getting in and out from parking to the entrance if you have mobility issues, as you step over railroad ties or navigate slippery walkway (it's the coast, it's expected!). Anyway, we would absolutely stay here again and would recommend it.

Best Girls Trip

We had the best weekend get away at this amazing cozy cottage! The location can’t be beat, it’s out the front door and directly into the cute downtown area. The beds were very comfortable, and the interior was clean and so cozy. Communication with the host was fast and they were very quick to answer any questions asked. I would definitely stay here again, the experience was a favorite for us!
