Three Maples Cottage-2BR 2BA in Waitsburg, Walla Walla Wine Country

Three Maples is located on a quiet street – just three blocks from downtown Waitsburg, a historic, pedestrian-friendly town in beautiful wheat farming country. The cozy, welcoming cottage is perfect for two couples, families of four, or simply to indulge you and that special person in a luxurious private nest for two. Completely refurbished, this century-old cottage has two private queen bedroom/bathroom suites, each with a clothing wall, and pillow-top, extra-deep mattresses. One bathroom has an extra-large (rodeo!) shower, the other a beautifully restored and luxurious 1929-vintage clawfoot bathtub with hand shower. Enjoy a fully-equipped kitchen with new appliances, a laundry room, wi-fi and 1/3-acre, fenced and landscaped garden. The cottage features an all-new heat pump system for ultra-quiet heat and cooling. Visitors to wine country will find it especially convenient to return to a quiet, comfy home after a day of tasting, where you may refresh and relax, and then walk to dine at a great southern food restaurant, Bar-b-que, brew pub, family cafe or simply cook up a meal in your own kitchen or grill, with supplies from the nearby farmers' market and fromagerie. Guests receive a complementary bottle of wine – good wine! – for each night of their stay. Summer days in here in the valley are sunny and quite warm. Summer evenings in Waitsburg are glorious, warm and dry. The night sky is filled with stars and there are very few insects. Spring and fall are quite beautiful, with daytime temperatures climbing into the 70s and 80s, and cooler evenings (bring layers!). The cottage is convenient to Walla Walla, yet a world apart, with no traffic (and no traffic lights!). Waitsburg is pedestrian-friendly and authentic. This is small town America at its best – like a trip back in time. Custom wine tasting events and guidance on local wineries and restaurants are available from the owners, who live across the street and are intimately connected with the region's food and wine purveyors. Outdoor recreational activities abound. Bird watching can be done from the comfort of your patio – Waitsburg is on a major migration path for dozens of species. From April through November there are wine events, rodeos, vintage car shows, theatre and music festivals and many other outdoor activities happening throughout the region. The area is a haven for bicycle riding, hiking, photography, painting, antiquing, rafting, skiing, fly fishing, golf and just about any outdoor activity you can name. Waitsburg loves its honored camel, IZZY. Now in a pasture on the West side of town, we'll supply directions and a bag of carrots to take when you go visit Izzie - a kids' favorite and a real sweetheart. You will never meet a gentler camel. Bottom line – we love this place; we live here year-round, and we are absolutely certain you won't want to leave once you've stayed here.
