About this property
Country serenity 15 min from OSU campus
This darling, clean 700 square foot cottage house sits on 7 acres and is just 15 minutes from OSU campus and 3.5 miles from Lake McMurtry East. Get away from the hustle and bustle and come let us share our slice of heaven with you! Taxes are less out here too - you don't have to pay the 4% city or 7% accommodation taxes when you book with us since we're outside city limits.
The stars are bright on a clear night and you never know when deer will come through. If you're a bird watcher there are plenty of beautiful birds to enjoy. Early in the morning rabbits tend to run about. We installed a fire pit area in Sept 2023 and Johnny built four redwood chairs for the area which is great for star gazing too.
One bedroom, one bath, kitchenette, refrigerator, microwave, stove. Queen bed with SertaRest gel memory foam mattress topper. Queen hide a bed. Linens provided. Basic cookware, utensils and dish ware. Central h/a.
Stillwater is where the Land Run began and we have been having fun decorating the cottage with this in mind. In August 2023 we started putting little price tags on some of the treasures we've used for decorations. If you want to purchase an item remove the price tag and leave it with cash or a check and take the item with you. This helps encourage our "picking". We know you'll enjoy our place as much as we do.

We stayed here for one night for a quick Father's Day weekend and Lake McMurtry activities. Location is perfect for access to both the lake and nearby Stillwater. Very peaceful, aside from the protective but friendly dogs!
This is not the first time we have stayed at this location. We really enjoy the hospitality and simplicity of the property. Next time we are in Stillwater we will book again.
The property left a fantastic impression—spacious, welcoming, impeccably clean, and wonderfully private. Every need was thoughtfully met, making the experience truly outstanding.
It was a great spot, that was just enough away from the busyness of the city, but perfect to run to for groceries, etc.
Thank you Dawnette for your kindness & your wonderful oatmeal cookies, and it sure was so nice of you having the cottage ready a day early (since we had a last minute change of plans)!
Charming. Well-stocked with lots of thoughtful touches. Very kind hosts. Clean and cozy!

Peace and Quiet
I wound up staying 13 nights and sincerely appreciated the quiet of a country setting. The host was exceptional and very responsive to my needs and requests.
Out of town where it’s so peaceful and quiet! A cute little cottage filled with antiques, it’s just the right size for us and our teenage son. We enjoyed seeing the goats and chickens, and the dogs were friendly but not a nuisance. The host was very easy to communicate with, especially after we realized we left a bag!
