Our three-day stay in Spokane was perfect. The quiet neighborhood was a true highlight, providing a peaceful escape after busy days of exploring. Its proximity to all the main attractions, including Riverfront Park and downtown, made getting around incredibly easy. The house was VERY clean and Nathan thought of every detail! We highly recommend it for anyone seeking a relaxing and accessible visit to Spokane.

Long comfortable stay in Spokane

We had a great stay in Spokane when we were here for almost 2 weeks. The cute little house was clean and comfortable with all the comforts of home. The kitchen had all the tools we needed. Any communication with the hosts was prompt and helpful. The location is great— 15 mins or less from anywhere we needed to go.

We absolutely enjoyed our one night stay in this beautiful cozy cottage in this very quiet Spokane neighbourhood. Check-in was really easy and upon our arrival was a lovely welcome card and a nice basket full of treats. This pristine home is well stocked with everything you would need for your stay with deluxe bedding and very comfortable bed. This cozy cottage is very clean and in immaculate condition. It is well equipped with an A/C , fans, extra bedding, towels and other extras, if needed. We also enjoyed the large TV in both the bedroom and living room and deluxe coffee maker. A very nice binder is also provided by the hosts with all details, instructions and information on places to eat and places to visit in Spokane. We loved this beautifully decorated home, excellent communication with the hosts and look forward to our next stay at Nathan & Michelle’s place.

We loved staying at Downriver Cottage. Super updated and very pleasant even with 90-100+ temps. Nice, big shower, comfortable bed and couch. Host, Nathan, was very helpful and solved a small problem very quickly. We will stay here again and again when we return to Spokane.

A wonderful stay at the Cozy Cottage

My wife and I stayed in Nathan's Cozy Cottage for a wonderful 4-night stay. It was simply perfect for us, as it was near our "kids" house in North Spokane. So very comfortable. Wonderful accommodations. The Cottage is one of the most comfortable, well stocked and cozy places we have ever stayed. Nathan and his wife did such a great job in stocking their Cottage. He was a great host and communicator. This will become our place to stay when traveling to Spokane. Thanks Nathan. We so appreciated your hospitality.

Cute little cottage in what seems like a quiet neighborhood

The cottage was exactly as described in the listing. We were so thankful to have a nice place to come back to after a few long days of baseball. The kitchen had all of the amenities needed and a nice coffee pot! Huge perk! The bed wasn’t the most comfortable bed- it was kind of hard, but I’m also very partial to my own bed. We will definitely be looking to book this place again next time we’re in town!

Rugby weekend getaway

Myself, my girlfriend andy teenage daughter came to Spokane for the Fool's Fest at Dwight Merkel sports complex and this house was the closest one available. Best decision to rent ever!!! So clean and just amazing. They had recently remodeled and everything they had done was just perfect. The house was stocked well and they had thought of everything. From the little details to the kitchen that had everything I needed to make a meal the night after a long day of hanging at the fields. The neighborhood was quiet and quaint. We sat outside and felt like we weren't on the city at all. We will most certainly be renting this again!

Cozy and quaint cottage

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Downriver Cottage. It was a fantastic value. Very private, comfortable, and cute. Would be perfect for couples, but worked great for us and our kids. It was very clean and the guidebook was helpful. We liked being able to park off the street. The house is so small (in a good way!) that the yard/lot feels huge. It'll be really beautiful when Nathan can put in a grassy yard, but we found it very charming as it was. Everything worked great, from internet, to shower, to stove. I thought the bed was very comfortable. We would personally prefer the bedding to be laundered with frange free detergent, but we understand that not everyone may feel that way. Would happily stay there again. If it were just my wife and I, we'd be tempted to buy or build a place like it. We could've paid about the same amount of money to get a hotel room with a separate room, but instead had a much nicer and more relaxing experience. Really can't understate how clean and well kept the house is. Nathan has done a great job with it. He was also a very good communicator. We didn't have any questions because everything was covered. Thank you, Nathan!

The house was cozy, clean, comfortable and perfect! The hosts were gracious with amenities and I especially was grateful for a safe neighborhood and private driveway that was long so our vehicle was off the street by a decent distance.

We have stayed at the Downriver Cottage several times. It never disappoints us. Nathan and Michelle have created a space that is perfect for a couple or small family. Everything you might need is there. The easiest day to describe it, is it like COMING HOME. We arrived a few days before Christmas, greeted by a precious Christmas tree.
