Comfortable, clean and great location.

We really enjoyed our stay at this house. It is a great location and extremely quiet area near our grandchildren's school. Being disabled to a lung disease, it was perfect being a one level and great open living area. Fenced yard for our 1 dog as well. Strongly recommend.

Quiet location in Phillipsburg

Great location and great hosts. Home was perfect for our family visiting while my husband was working locally. Philipsburg is a lovely town. Great fishing, hikes, etc. Host reached out before check in to ensure all was ok. Would definitely stay again when I’m in the area.

Fantastic Philipsburg Home Away From Home!

My wife and I stayed the Douglas Creek Cottage for a week last month and couldn't have been happier. The owner was great to deal with and the property was ideal, even though we couldn't bring our dog with us! Walking distance to downtown, great yard, clean, tastefully decorated and even a well stocked pantry! We couldn't have asked for more! When we return to Philipsburg we'll be staying here again for sure!

Was here for our mom’s memorial

This house was perfect for what we needed, the rooms and kitchen were in great shape and had most anything you would need to cook and entertain with. Location is ok but the route is hard to find at first. This place is an unexpected gem in Philipsburg.

Comfy and clean!!

Comfy beds and very clean upon check-in. Rob, the owner, checked on us to be sure we had everything thing we needed. 2 minute drive to the store and shops in town. We loved the view from the house and even had a couple up close visits from the local deer. Highly recommend this cute house! Thanks for everything! We may be back later this year!

We loved our stay, and would stay there again with no hesitation. It was cozy and as advertised.

Three adults and three children spent a great weekend at the Douglas Creek Cottage. It was easy to find and get to, a short walk to Pburg's main drag, and fit our needs well. It was warm on winter nights, and well stocked, especially the linens. The decor had some cool old cowboy things and classic mountain touches. The only reason it is a 4 and not 5 star accommodation is that a the hardwood floor is a bit splintery and a few furnishings are in need of repair. These things would certainly not prevent me from staying there again, just a touch below a 5 star level, of which there a few around. I'd go 4.5 if I could.

Best in 40 years

I've best staying in guest houses annually for 40 years. This cottage is one of the best in all that time. Mostly, I've been with friends on fishing trips, but also vacations with family. Douglas Cottage honestly had a well supplied kitchen, it's unlike many that said they did only to find a sad collection of yard sale worn out mismatched pans, a couple dull knives and a coffee pot. The cottage has 3 GOOD beds in 3 nice bedrooms. A nice bath with shower, good water pressure. And an amazing supply of hot water. The location is quiet, close to the interesting town of historic Phillipsburg. For us, it was an excellent base for fishing upper Rock Creek and Flint Creek.

Cozy and comfy

The little cottage was perfect for two couples, as we traveled to Pburg for a weekend event. Plenty of additional parking for our rigs, and the house is well laid out, comfortable, and well appointed with the comforts that help people feel at home. The kitchen is very user friendly, well stocked with basics, the bathroom, the same. Beds are comfortable and clean. I think our only negative was that I like to sleep with the windows open, but the bugs were thick, and the screens were not keeping them out, but there are fans for each room and we enjoyed keeping the front door open for a breeze well into the late evening. The neighborhood is quiet, and it's only about a 15 minute walk to downtown, so when parking was a premium for the events, we were easily able to walk to everything and Pburg is such a wonderful town, people offer rides in their side-by-sides, all the time. The fenced in yard is a plus, as we were able to bring our dog, and it's well maintained. The back patio is a great spot for entertaining, and even pulling out a board game or cards. Communication with the owners was easy and prompt, and we truly enjoyed our stay.

The cottage is well maintained to bad the really nice patio overlooks a trailer and a backyard yard of ducks and a turkey no view not the great view as advertised. It should be noted that the property is next door to the high school football field.

Fishing base camp

This was our second year at the Cottage which we use as a base camp for our fishing expeditions. Everything was clean, cozy and functional. The location is great for access to the various fishing opportunities in the area. It's also close to town, which is handy.I have a pet peeve about most lodges, Vrbo's and country cabins in that there are almost no hooks, racks or hangers available to hang up your stuff. As fisherman, we have lots of stuff. The Douglas Creek Cottage has lots of towel racks and hooks in the bathroom, hooks in the bedrooms and hooks in the mud room. Bravo!

About the host

Hosted by Rob and Diane Chandler

Host profile image
We first visited Philipsburg over 21 years ago and knew then that we had to share the experience with others. We now live in Seattle but having both grown up in small towns we fell in love with the charm and friendliness of Philipsburg. We are always amazed by the community of people, their love for their town and their hospitality.
We love what the Flint Creek Valley offers from Sapphire Mining to enjoying a craft beer at the Philipsburg Brewery. Taking a short drive out to Rock Creek for a day of World Class fly fishing is one of our favorite activities.

Why they chose this property

Whether we head to the Discovery Ski Area in the winter or spend hours fishing Rock Creek, Georgetown lake or small streams, boating, swimming and exploring in the summer we love it all, including the candy store! There is so much to see and do in the area within walking distance. P-Burg is a great home base for farther travel as well. We are just three hours to Yellowstone to the south and two and a half hours north to Glacier Park with lots of Ghost Towns in between.

What makes this property unique

Our home sits on a fenced corner lot and is walking distance to downtown shops. Enjoy the back patio for breakfast lunch and dinner. A great setting to enjoy a morning cup of coffee or an evening dinner. You can hear Douglas Creek in the distance as it trickles by the Cottage. The house has an open floor plan and great for family gatherings.
