Comfy bed, clean everything, coffee, tea, mini fridge, microwave. Fun history of Moscow book0. Hosts were friendly and unobtrusive, checkin and checkout were a snap.
This was the perfect place for my husband & I to stay. Quiet, clean & comfortable. There was a little heatwave during our visit so being able to tuck in with a/c was great. Robyn is generous and kind in her communication.
My husband and I really enjoyed our stay at the Fort Russell Carriage House. We were in town for a family reunion and the Carriage House proved to be the perfect “base camp”. It was cozy and quiet, and just a really relaxing place to be. Highly recommend.

THANK YOU !!!
Perfect place to stay if you just need a place to crash and shower as you come and go throughout Moscow/Pullman. Clean and comfortable. Hosts were friendly and communicative.
This is the second time we have stayed at the Carriage House. It’s very comfortable, in a great location and the owners communicate very well.

Visiting Family
Convenient location. Close to family and downtown. A bit drafty in the winter. Limited food prep area - micro, hot water pot, mini frig. Carpet and paint needs repair and updating.
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.
Everything about the Carriage House is easy and relaxing. The owner's are thoughtful and communicate well. They offercthe perfect blend of comfort and privacy. Always a pleasure
Such a gorgeous space - the neighborhood and downtown Moscow did not disappoint. Such good food and great vibes!
The carriage house was just what we needed. Only minor issue was there wasn't a lot of coffee to use, mostly decaf and tea.
I really enjoyed my stay. I travel for work and just need a place to sleep and privacy. I eat meals out so no need for a full kitchen, There is a small fridge, Micro and Coffee for snacks. Its a great location and the communication was outstanding. I would definitely stay again.
This cottage is tucked in a lovely little historic neighborhood which was a nice surprise! We enjoyed the peace and quiet, watching the silly backyard chickens from the window, the quick hop over to U of I campus and great restaurants in town. Thanks again!
The Carriage House is a gem in this Gem State town. Nestled in a large backyard with chickens and mature trees, this cottage provided tranquility and a convenient base to work and tend to family business. Robyn and Craig have intentionally curated an experience not quite like other VRBO offerings.
I seldom write reviews, but I had to take a moment to say what an excellent experience this was. This rental is a cozy little gem! There is a refrigerator and microwave, with a small selection of plates, glasses and utensils. But you are only a few blocks from Main Street if you want to walk down for meals. The bed is super comfortable, so beware of oversleeping! Best of all was the great communication and support from the hosts. They really make you feel at home.
