About this property

The Cottage-Near Downtown Historic Courthouse Square

  • The Cottage is located in the historic residential area just 2 and a half short blocks from The Historic Downtown Courthouse Square. There is a tremendous array of activities at The Square and you are literally only a short 3 to 5 minute walk from The Square and the famous Whiskey Row.
    Our premier property for rent near The Historic Downtown Square is The Cottage, which has over 1,550 square feet of living space with hardwood floors and travertine tile throughout. The Cottage has two bedrooms, 1.5 baths, large family room, separate dining room, fully stocked kitchen, dining area with window seat and laundry room. The furniture is well appointed, and provides a romantic,cozy, cottage feel as if you were in Carmel or Monterey. In addition, we are dog friendly, so bring the pooch.

    The master bedroom has a king sized bed with a large walk-in closet and nicely appointed sitting/reading area. The master has its own television. The second bedroom has a queen sized bed. The Cottage can easily accommodate 5 to 6 people.

    The living room has a large Samsung 46 inch flat screen HDTV, HD cable hookup, Blu-Ray DVD that streams Netflix. In addition The Cottage has a high speed WiFi connection. The dining room can accommodate 6 or more for your bountiful Thanksgiving, Christmas or Easter dinner!!

    The kitchen is fully stocked to the satisfaction of even the most discriminating Chef! The gas stove is nestled within a old brick hood, and guests can watch you prepare meals while seating in the kitchen nook or cozy window seat.

    The best is left for last...the intimate secluded patio. One of our recent guests, refers to this patio as The Plaza (see our reviews). Escape through the back door to Paradise, and listen to the birds chirping and relax in the cool shaded patio. Read a book or just meditate.
    So if you want to enjoy your stay in Prescott at virtually your home away from home, please come and stay at The Cottage.

    Check out our other exceptional properties all within walking distance of downtown! The Terrace (VRBO # 423532) and The Townhouse (VRBO 1012557), which are our properties next door to The Cottage.

Always a great place to stay

This is the third year we rented from Larry and our stay has always been a great escape from the summer heat of southern Arizona. His assistant, Pauline does excellent work and we hired her mid-stay to clean the Cottage. Great location, pet-friendly, and close to downtown Prescott.

Beautiful place

Went to visit Prescott for a couple of days we rented this place. It was amazing. It has everything you ever wanted in a house. I think it was one of the best VRBO’s I rented. I will definitely go back here. You will not find a better place in Prescott.

historic house in historic Prescott

We enjoyed staying in an historic house that was updated. Very comfortable. We especially enjoyed the outside patio under the trees at all times of the day. Walking to the square was wonderful.

A Perfect Prescott AZ Hideaway!

Complete with all amenities...this lovely, bright, and airy 2 bedroom cottage was a perfect retreat during our recent visit to Prescott, Arizona. Larry Schmidt, the owner, was most gracious and accommodating. My husband and I highly recommend this property to anyone seeking the comforts of a charming home, in a quiet neighborhood, with close proximity to the old town of Prescott. If our travels bring us back to Prescott, we would stay here again in a heartbeat! Thank you, Larry for helping to make our Prescott visit a comfortable and happy one! Nancy and Ken

Great Place to Stay!

The Cottage is just as nice as the pictures show. The home is spotless, the beds are comfortable, the patio is expansive (we spent a lot of time there), and the kitchen is well appointed. Larry was great to work with and his suggestions of Bin 239 and Rosa's Pizzeria were great, and we especially enjoyed the evening specials at Rosa's (it is so close, we walked there). My wife and I truly appreciated that Larry allowed us to bring along our little miniature schnauzer--she loved the patio too! Goldwater, Lynx and Watson lakes are an easy drive so we visited each and especially enjoyed hiking the trail around Lynx and picnicking at Goldwater Lake. We would recommend this home to others and would definitely stay at The Cottage again.

A Great Place To Stay

Recently, while house hunting in Prescott, we wanted to stay close to the downtown area. The Cottage was the perfect choice - charming, comfortable, and it provided everything we needed to enjoy a week in Prescott. The outdoor patio was a great place to sit and relax after days of looking at homes! The evenings were cool (April) so watching movies and the gas fireplace made us feel right at home. Reservations were a breeze and we spoke personally with Larry Schmidt, the owner. His representative met us at The Cottage and showed us where everything was located and answered all of our questions. A very positive experience and we offer our unqualified recommendation – a great place to stay when in Prescott.

Clean & Charming

Larry, This is such a charming home . The home is tastefully decorated with a unique charm. So clean and spacious with so much pantry & drawer space. I so appreciated the lighting system all around the house . Loved the side patio off the living room. Very private and secure for your pets. I can attest that my dog Marley enjoyed this house too. Enjoyed all the many walks around the historic neighborhood and the town square is just a few minutes walk. Goldwater and Lynx Lakes are just an easy 5 minute drive. Great place to hike and fish. Would return again and for a longer stay. We didn't want to leave. Thanks, Sandy

Excellent location and beautiful property - dog friendly

We decided to do a last minute getaway to Prescott to enjoy the holiday celebrations - which are fantastic! This property has the ideal location that is close to center of town but still gives you a great historic neighborhood feel. The home has plenty of room and provides all the comfort of home. We took our pup so the patio was extremely convenient. Larry was a pleasure to work with. Definitely our go-to for all future trips to Prescott!

Perfect in every way.

I cannot praise this house enough. It is spacious, sparkling clean, and beautifully appointed. The location is a five minute walk to the charming downtown and excellent restaurants. But the best thing about the house was the wonderful patio. Our extended family, in town for the ERAU graduation, came over for a barbecue, and the beautiful landscaping and ample outdoor seating made the afternoon and evening a delight. Everyone commented on how lovely the house was. An award plaque for best historical restoration was well deserved. If you are coming to Prescott, this is the place to stay!
