This was the perfect place for my husband & I to stay. Quiet, clean & comfortable. There was a little heatwave during our visit so being able to tuck in with a/c was great. Robyn is generous and kind in her communication.

My husband and I really enjoyed our stay at the Fort Russell Carriage House. We were in town for a family reunion and the Carriage House proved to be the perfect “base camp”. It was cozy and quiet, and just a really relaxing place to be. Highly recommend.

Visiting Family

Convenient location. Close to family and downtown. A bit drafty in the winter. Limited food prep area - micro, hot water pot, mini frig. Carpet and paint needs repair and updating.

A hidden spot in Moscow!

We came to visit our daughter at WSU and needed a place that was close, but not right in town. Came across this carriage house, and it was a great bet! Nice neighborhood and nice people all around, Robyn and Craig especially.The space is quaint and really well done. We enjoyed learning about the history of the property in the book which lines up with the character of the property. Hope to stay again in the future.

Such a gorgeous space - the neighborhood and downtown Moscow did not disappoint. Such good food and great vibes! The carriage house was just what we needed. Only minor issue was there wasn't a lot of coffee to use, mostly decaf and tea.

Carriage House: I can’t quit you!

This was my second stay in what has to be the best accommodation spot on the Palouse. Skip the sterile and boring hotel room and do yourself a favor when traveling to Moscow, BOOK the Carriage House!

The Carriage House is a quiet, cozy, and comfortable stay for one or two. The accommodations are simple and basic - just right for our little getaway. The hosts communicated clearly and had everything ready for our arrival. If you need to steal away for a weekend or a few days of R&R, this is a great choice.

About the host

Hosted by Robyn Miller

Host profile image
We have lived in Moscow, Idaho for nearly 20 years but recently moved into our dream house on Howard St. Craig is a Biology Professor at the University of Idaho and I work for The Nature Conservancy. We are a very busy family with 3 active young children so you probably won't see too much of us. We are available by phone if anything arises that needs immediate attention. We will respect your space and do our best to provide you a restful stay. However, our children love to play in the yard on the weekends and early evenings. We also have laying hens, a young dog, and loving cat on the property.
