Anne's cottage is wonderful. Clean, bright, close to everything. If you are not comfortable in a studio this may not be your place, but for us it was perfect. The view off the deck is incredible. Quiet neighborhood, felt very safe! Thankyou Darla for a perfect place to stay.

Ashland vacation

We stayed for the month of October and had a wonderful time. Diane and David thought of everything in furnishing the cottage. We didn't need a thing except our own food. The location was excellent for us, easy walks to town, coffee shops, pubs, and dog park.

A perfect place for a stay in Ashland

The cottage was clean and comfortable and -- despite my concern about its size -- entirely satisfactory. There was great storage space and the murphy bed (very easy to use) gave a large, comfortable place to sleep without giving up much space during the day. The owners were prompt and helpful for problems (no big ones) including those from my own mechanical/techno ineptitude. If you like deer, they were regular visitors to the neighborhood, and the human next-door neighbors became friends. The location can't be beat for the price and amenities: 12 minute walk to the Shakespeare Festival; 8 minute lazy bike ride to the Growers' Market (not to be missed). I'd rent it again in an instant if I hadn't fallen so in love with Ashland I bought my own place (which, like Annie's cottage, gives me a view of the mountains from my deck: Heaven indeed).

Owner response:Thanks, Mary, glad we could be a part of your Ashland experience!

I stayed in Annie's Cottage for the month of May while attending UBI - couldn't have picked a better place. Diane and David are fantastic folks that I really enjoyed getting to know (make sure to visit their Organic Nation distillery while there!). They have created a perfect place to call home while you're away from home -- I can't wait to find a way to come back. David's woodworking detail throughout the cottage is amazing (cabinetry and murphy bed) and gives the cottage a special feel. The place is very well equipped and super comfortable. Great deck and backyard - perfect if you have a dog. The views from the deck are beautiful especially while enjoying a morning coffee or evening grilling.

I stayed at wonderful Annie's for a month in September and October. The light that fills the space is exquisite, starting with beautiful sunrises. The attention to details in the cottage itself is great--there was never anything that I needed that wasn't provided. The deck is private and quiet. Diane and David go out of their way to help out-of-towners connect into the community--both in terms of information and events that offer the opportunity to meet new people. Annie's will be my first choice to stay in Ashland on any repeat visits!

I can't tell you how much my girlfriend and I enjoyed Annie's! We stayed here for two weeks vacation, while I attended the United Bicycle Institute, and we were so happy to be staying in such a charming house. Annie's is the comfortable bungalow that is walking distance to the Oregon Shakespeare Festival, the Ashland Food Co-op and all the lovely restaurants and attractions that Ashland has to offer. The Murphy bed was more comfy than our own bed and with such a large deck, it is hard not to spend all your time outdoors admiring the nibbling deer. Diane and David are such wonderful people and showed us all the hospitality of family. We are honored to call them friends!

Owner response:Adan & Laura, yes, we are honored as well to count you as our friends! Hope to see you next year! DP

Outstanding value for this beautifully appointed, fully equiped cottage. My wife and I (and 2 Yorkies) stayed here for a month. Plenty of storage space, terrific deck, air conditioned etc. We wouldn't hesitate to return.

It was like staying in a modern European studio apartment with thoughtful and wise architectural features to provide a restful oasis. Enjoyed the deck with a great view. Annies place is closer to the hub than many we found on the net that advertised "within walking distance" to Shakespeare.

This charming cozy cottage was a dream come true for us. Since we needed a place with all the immenities in place, this was so perfectly suited for our needs. It was also well situated to downtown Ashland so we were able to walk everywhere. If we ever have the opportunity to work in Ashland again, we'll choose "Annie's". It was delightful in every way. The serene views and privacy from the back deck were special and an added bonus.

I have stayed at Annie's Place twice now, once for two months and once for two weeks and have enjoyed it tremendously. Diane and Dave are terrific and Annie's place is so cute with gorgeous views from the deck. I had my coffee every morning on the deck and it was a great way to start the day. It's completely furnished with everything you need for a stay, close to downtown, and, again, the views are superb.

Owner response:Susan,Met your lovely daughter at the Farmer'sMkt! Hope to see you again next year, reserve early so we can accommodate your timeframe! dcp

Little Annie was such a cozy place to begin my adventures in Ashland. My two spaniels loved roaming around the large backyard... it was perfect. Thanks so much again for the warm welcome, and sharing your home.

Owner response:Once again, we have had the privilege of wonderful people and their doggies infusing their good energy into our little Annie St. rental.

Annie's quiet and peacefulness was just what I needed after teaching each day. Your warm hospitality is greatly reflected in Annie (508 Ann St.) and I'm sure we're meant to be friends!I would certainly tell all my friends about Annie...in fact I am writing a report on my trip to Ashland and Annie plays such an important role. I'll send you a copy when I'm done. With deep appreciation for your perfect peace of paradise.
