House was so very clean and fit our needs perfectly. Close to all shopping and events. Host came by and introduced himself and even got us a couple of folding chairs to use at a downtown music event. The bedding, pots & pans, towels were all top notch.We would stay there again.

Wonderful place to stay and wonderful hosts

Wallace and Ona' Place both get more enchanting each time we visit. Although our main focus on this trip was the area's world-class biking, on this trip we also spent some time kayaking the North Fork, strolling the lovely neighborhoods, and enjoying some wonderful restaurants. Everything was perfect.

Delightful cottage in perfect location

Ona’s miner’s cottage is a perfect home in a perfect location walking distance to everything. The cottage had everything we needed and is very livable. The owners Elmer and Corki live close by and were wonderful. I recommend this home highly for anyone bike riding the Trail of the Coeur d’Alenes.

We had a great stay at Ona's House! Perfect size, great location, and easy communication with the hosts. We enjoyed the town of Wallace and surrounding areas, and rode the Route of the Hiawatha.

Great Home and Adorable Town

The home is delightful, well-appointed, charming and old fashioned but upgraded where you most appreciate it (in the bathroom and kitchen). It doesn't look very big from the street, but is actually quite large. Very comfortable.

Perfect getaway!

We absolutely enjoyed staying here. Checking in was simple, the home was immaculate and very cozy. We love the charm and history of this historic house and the town of Wallace. We will definitely be back. We also met the owner while walking down the sidewalk. That in itself was a blessing! Thank you again.
