Welcome to our renovated farmhouse on the Little Spokane River, with nature views out every window and 200’ of river access to enjoy. Come for peace, quiet, and a slower pace surrounded by wildlife and the historic charm of the home originally built in 1902. Visit area attractions such as Mt Spokane or Greenbluff. The setting is rural but just 5 minutes from major grocery stores, movies, parks, an aquatic facility and access to walking and hiking trails right out the front door. Our hot tub is clean, warm and ready for you!
This property tends to be a great fit for guests who appreciate a quiet, nature-focused stay and are comfortable in a self-guided, owner-managed home rather than a full-service environment.
The farmhouse and approximately 1.5 acres of land are dedicated spaces for guests to enjoy exclusively, including a large grassy yard and gazebo with river views in the midst of park-like mature landscaping. Additionally, guests have access to 200 feet of river frontage via a short trail from the cottage. The river frontage is a semi-private area of the property that may occasionally be shared with the homeowners in the main house next door. The main house is separated from the guest cottage by about an acre of land and lots of foliage, making it totally private most of spring, summer and fall. We have built a privacy fence for winter.
We hope you’ll enjoy the peaceful natural beauty of the riverfront during your stay. Please note that although this is on private property, the land within 200 feet of the river is designated as a protected wildlife zone. That means there are maintenance limitations so please expect a more natural setting.
The property includes river access for guests to enjoy but river conditions can vary seasonally and may include changing water depth, current, temperature, and riverbed conditions. Guests use the river and surrounding area entirely at their own risk. We do not provide watercraft or safety equipment. Please supervise children closely at all times near the water.
Owners live nearby but we leave guests totally alone for a peaceful stay to themselves.
