Property details

Step back in time with this beautiful 1900s home. Recently renovated to include all the modern amenities, this basement unit has its own private entrance, a beautiful full kitchen, and updated bathroom. With two comfy king sized beds and a cozy living room, this unit has everything you need! Located across from an elementary school and part of the Historic Monteith District Tour, this home is a beautiful testament of quality construction and elegance brought back to life. Please note this is a basement unit. The upstairs is also an short term rental unit so (as much work as we've done to soundproof it) from time to time you may hear sounds from above. To ensure the comfort of all our guests we do ask everyone to respect the quiet hours of 10pm - 7am. Note: Correct pricing is based on correct guest count. With an ADA friendly unit on property, the driveway is available on a first come-first serve basis with priority going to to any ADA needs. If you'd like exclusive use ask us how to reserve it for your stay! Pet Policy: We are glad to host your pets too (as in dogs 🐶). Anything beyond that — lizards, ferrets, emotional support peacocks — needs a little pre-approval, just so we’re all on the same page. Regardless of how well trained the pet is, we have found pets do crazy things at unfamiliar locations. I really do not want to charge for cleaning carpets or floor rugs. It’s a pain, so please READ carefully! Thank you! We ask for compliance in a few house rules: 🛋️ No pets on the furniture — no matter how much they side-eye ya. 🚪 No pets in the bedrooms. We just replaced carpets and are trying to keep things fresh and fur-free. 🛏️ Bring their own bedding if possible to prevent marking or nervous accidents. Trust us, they do happen! If you don’t have any, let me know — I’ve got extra pet blankets you can use. 🚿 No pet baths in the tub. That spa day is for humans only. 🚧 Please keep them on wood flooring, use the baby gates provided or close bedroom doors to ensure compliance. 🚫 No unkenneled solo pet parties — please don’t leave your pet unattended unless properly crated. 🐶 Need pet care while you're out? We’ve got a Rover sitter on standby — just say the word. 💩 Please scoop the poop. It’s basic trail etiquette and good humaning. There is a $40 per week per pet fee for dogs (capped at $120 per month), Any other pets will be considered on a case by case basis- please inquire. If you already paid it through your reservation, great! If not, please reach out and we can discuss the various channels depending on how you booked that we can use. Enhance your stay today! Add an early check-in ($25), grab a late check-out ($25), bring a second pet ($40 IF APPLICABLE), reserve the entire driveway ($10/night IF APPLICABLE), and/or grab a pack-n-play for ($10/night).

The house was clean and spacious for two ladies. The water pressure was phenomenal, and the beds/linens were very comfortable. Great location and a perfect middle ground for driving to McDowell, Silver Falls, and many other beautiful hikes. I was not aware that the rental was an upper/under unit with neighbors above. The neighbors were courteous, but because it is an older home, it was still fairly noisy when people came in for the night or were waking up. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay!

This is the third time staying at this location. Once again it did not disappoint. It’s very comfortable, clean and accessible to everything we had scheduled during our stay. One of the strengths is the communication. We received frequent texts checking in on us. Any texts were made were immediately replied to, which hasn’t always been my experience in vacation homes. Very much appreciated.
