This cozy space, nestled behind our main house, welcomes you with a private entrance and a convenient kitchenette. Plus, enjoy access to a beautiful deck, and fire pit area exclusively for guests. You'll love the peaceful atmosphere and the mid-century style with live plants, lots of natural light, and captivating art—all while savoring views of our majestic Redwood tree.

As you step inside, you'll find yourself in a spacious living room where a Smart TV with streaming services like Netflix and Amazon provides entertainment, while high-speed internet ensures you stay connected. The room is filled with natural light and live plants, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. It also showcases charming mid-century decor, adding to the fun and stylish ambiance (By the way, all the art in our cottage is either painted by David or from our personal collection. If you spot a piece of art you like, don't hesitate to ask about it!)

Adjacent to the living room, you'll discover a convenient kitchenette with essentials to meet your basic cooking needs. Here, you can prepare a quick snack or brew a fresh cup of local coffee, which we provide as a welcoming treat. The kitchenette is equipped with a mini fridge, microwave, hot plate, French press coffee maker, and all the basics.

The bathroom is equipped with a shower, hair dryer and essential toiletries. Next to the bathroom is the bedroom - many guests write us about how much they love our queen bed! Get ready for a peaceful night's sleep in this super-cozy bed complete with extra pillows and blankets.

And as you step outside, you'll find a wonderful private deck, just for you. This outdoor area includes a fully fenced shared backyard where you can relax and enjoy the beautiful Redwood tree and the peaceful surroundings.

Lovely stay at The Redwood

My wife and I had a comfortable and relaxing three nights at Lisa's charming property. While the apartment is cozy, nothing feels remotely cramped as the space is planned and utilized really smartly. The bed was incredibly comfortable and we really appreciated the french coffee beans and French Press. Communication with Lisa was friendly and lightning-quick. I'd heartily recommend this rental to a couple looking for a Willamette Valley getaway.
