Beautiful House

We loved staying in this house. It was spotless and comfortable. Four couples stayed two nights and everyone had a great time. It is on a busy corner with a stoplight which was the only disappointment - I was expecting a quiet downtown street, but regardless the house itself was very cool and well maintained. We had a great time.

Amazing restored historic home

This property was awesome, room for all of us and restored beautifully. Bike or walk downtown to fun restaurants or wine tasting. Would definitely book again as there was a room for all 11 of us and the kids had a blast.

Visiting our daughter while she was playing at Whitman for a volleyball tournament. Coincidence that my siblings from across country were here.

Wonderful historic home!

This was a clean, well maintained historic home that had plenty of space for our family, friends and our dog. The home is on an intersection but the owners have taken care to address any noise issues with white noise machines and a lovely enclosed back yard. The home has gorgeous tile and details that evoke its unique historic character. It was a fun and easy walk to town.

Just what we needed

A group of adult friends wanted to enjoy some kid free time with good food and great wine. The McCool house was charming and conveniently located to downtown. We walked there every morning for coffee and walked to and from dinner every evening. Would definitely stay here again for a short walla walla get away!

Family Wedding

We really enjoyed our stay here. Was a comfortable house to hang out together in or have separate areas when needed. Close to downtown coffee shops and restaurants. Everything was great except the downstairs king size bed mattress was very soft and difficult for two people to sleep in. Other than that we had a very enjoyable stay.

We especially liked how the hosts seemed to have gone above and beyond to make sure that the guests have an enjoyable stay, almost like a hotel. Highly recommend this place.
