About this property

Syvila’s Cottage | Private Garden Near Downtown

  • Step back in time at Syvila’s Cottage, a charming 1940s bungalow that has remained in the same family and been thoughtfully updated for today. Original character pairs with an updated kitchen and bath, two queen bedrooms, and comfortable spaces for up to four guests.

    The real surprise is outside. The nearly half-acre, fully fenced backyard feels like a private garden retreat, with mature trees, colorful landscaping, and covered outdoor dining—perfect for morning coffee, an afternoon in the shade, or dinner after a day of wine tasting.

    Tucked into a quiet residential neighborhood just a quick four-minute drive from downtown Walla Walla, Syvila’s is an easy, welcoming home base for exploring the valley.

    Syvila’s Cottage is a strictly no-pet property. Thank you for respecting the homeowner’s pet policy.

    Exterior Security Cameras: For guest and property security, there is a Ring doorbell camera at the front entrance facing the front door and walkway, and an exterior security camera overlooking the backyard. There are no cameras inside the home.

First visit to Walla Walla

Great easy stay for our family. Nice simple house had everything we needed - nice coffee and wine! Although we were out and about all day - the yard and kitchen are great. The neighborhood is quiet, and guests should be respectful of the neighbors.

Quaint Cottage

Perfect for two couples or a family of 3 or 4! Back yard and patio area are comfortable and inviting. House has original wood floors that squeak loudly in spots, but the comfort and top quality amenities made up for it!! Would definitely stay again!

Nice cottage. An updated interior with a small kitchen but great appliances. Small bathroom but nicely tiled shower. Cottage can easily accommodate 1, a couple, 2 friends but would be a little cramped for 2 couples. Might be okay for a couple with 1 or 2 children. BIG back yard with a nice garden area. Quiet neighborhood. Host was very easy to contact and responded quickly.

Cozy Cottage

We loved this little house! It was so cute, very clean, and exactly what we were needing for annual wine tasting trip to Walla Walla. The yard was gorgeous! We loved sitting on the back patio in the mornings, enjoying our coffee and visiting with old friends. There was some late night activity (which turned out to be teenagers messing around the neighborhood). Our neighbor was very friendly and assured us that this was a very safe and family friendly neighborhood. We would definitely stay here again!

Lovely home for quick weekend

We spent a weekend here and the highlight of the house is the back yard. Stunning place to lounge and enjoy a glass of wine (purchased at a nearby winery of course). The house was well appointed and had everything we needed. The only downside to the property was having just one bathroom. An additional half bath would make all the difference with four adults. Would also love light blocking curtains, it’s quite bright in the morning. Otherwise, amazing!
