We sleep and seat 4 comfortably, six is possible with the queen hide-a-bed though it makes sitting a tight squeeze.

We would stay here again. Was a wonderful place to stay. We would recommend that they do a walk through and look for pest before people stay. Sent pictures to host.

Thank you for the nice review and so pleased you enjoyed your stay. Sorry about your little visitor you had. We try very hard to keep them out in nature but they like the comfort of the bungalow as much as our guests do!
The tiny house was well equipped, decorated nicely, quiet surroundings, and great location. The only suggested improvement would be to upgrade the bed and mattress in the main bedroom. It was noisy and very springy. We look forward to coming back again.

Such a cute outside area. And a very nice inside! It’s so clean and it’s clear the owners really care about their customers. The place comes equipped with everything I’d ever need! I might book a longer stay here someday just because it’s so cozy.
Very comfortable. Location was within walking distance to eatery. Beds were very comfortable. Whole place was well equipped. We had a great place to call home!

Thank you for such a nice review. I always love to hear that our place was all you expected and needed for your stay. .
We came to visit family and just needed a place to sleep but the house was a hit. We ended up hosting a family movie night in the loft - the kids loved it. The hosts provided popcorn to complete our movie night. It is a "tiny house" but it easily slept 2 adults and 2 teens and we never felt crowded. We enjoyed our stay.

Nice Tiny house, quiet and has everything you need. Super for 4 people or kids, they would love the loft. Area around could be cleaned up a bit. But it’s country. Enjoyed it!
Great for a family- private spaces plus a gathering space!
Our family of 5 recently stayed in this tiny home in Prairie City. It was more comfortable for our family, cheaper, and gave us a cozy but ample living room/kitchen area to gather. Our 6’3” son had to crouch in the upstairs loft but it was worth it to have private spaces and a kitchen. Very clean also (I especially loved that the owners clean all the bedding, not just the sheets, between guests). It’s located right behind a laundromat but all was super quiet after 9:30pm or so.

So glad you had a good stay and we’re able to be cozy with big crew. Thank you staying with us.
My family had never stayed in a tiny house, so this was a first. When we first went on to the house, we immediately loved it! It was so tastefully furnished. Loved the interior design. Everything was so neat and clean. We never wanted for anything. Our only regret was that we didn't have time to stay longer. We hope to come back at some point and stay longer.

Thanks Mary! So glad you and the family had a comfortable stay. We do home you return soon.
I was surprised to see Prarie City so vibrant. I liked the cabin but didn’t like having to strip the bed and run the dishwasher at the end. I paid enough money to have the host take care of it.

So glad you enjoyed our city. We ask that those simple things be done when you leave to help keep our cleaning fees low.
Ideally situated, walking distance from pretty much everything. Spotlessly clean. Well equipped.
Couple of wishes: shampoo and conditioner in bathroom (consider similar dispenser to shower gel) plus shelf in bathroom for toiletries. Also some sort of blind on entrance door.
Other than that: a great little find. Very responsive host.

The door lock was a challenge. But the AC was appreciated, and it had everything we needed. On Sunday everything was closed, not enough help, or not enough business? Kinda funny. We hiked at Strawberry Mtn, beautiful! Thank you, your little house worked our for our weekend.

So glad you had a beautiful hike. Yes small town America still closes on Sundays.
Sorry you found the lock a challenge. Any help making the instructions more clear would be welcomed.
Thank you for staying with us.
This place is larger than a tiny house with comfy chairs in the living room-kitchen. The upstairs is short thus one must crawl to get around but then it's small. The outside deck is great for enjoying the mountain views!
