About this property
The Haven - Whitman College Neighborhood. Walk to Main St. Hot tub/Families/Pets
The Haven is a 100+ year-old home on Pearson Street, in a beautiful historic neighborhood several blocks from Whitman College and Main Street in Walla Walla.
The Haven is a licensed vacation rental in the City of Walla Walla and abides by all regulations.
The Haven was set up in 2006 specifically as a nightly rental. It is a distinctive comfortable place for family and friends - coveted by those that drink fine wine, handcrafted beer, and specialty cocktails. Families love The Haven because there are ample places for play and privacy. Additionally, the neighborhood is charming and close to several parks.
The kitchen is the heart of this home and was remodeled creating an open floor plan. Relax and enjoy the patio with Jacuzzi hot tub - perfect for sunning and lounging in your private backyard.
This well-maintained and updated (3 plus bedroom/ 2.5 bathroom) home has distinct architectural features including Victorian fish-scale shingle siding, spacious front veranda, and second story sleeping porch (sunroom).
It is designed to provide the ideal Walla Walla experience for families and friends - wine clubs, girlfriend getaways, bachelorette weekends, bookclubs, reunions, cycling groups, golf weekends.
Don't miss your weekend morning walk to Pioneer Park or Main Street for the Farmer's Market. For a quiet evening at The Haven, utilize our Sonos system with 50-inch TV. Log into your favorite channels and music or use your personal device to fill The Haven with music. A vintage piano is also available for your enjoyment. Local and regional publications, as well as recommendations for dining, shopping, and touring is provided. Be sure to check out the assortment of books and our collection of family-favorite board games.
Enjoy our various entertaining spaces which can accommodate gatherings such as cocktail parties, wine tastings, barbeques, and family feasts. Utilize our distinctive serviceware and place settings and sit down for an elegant dinner.
Have a casual meal on the front veranda or in the backyard. Help yourself to what is in the pantry and fresh ingredients from our seasonal culinary herb garden and use the gas bbq. Lounge about the Jacuzzi Hot Tub and soak up the sun by day and head back into the spa for special star gazing at night.
At the end of the day, sleep comfortably on our pillow-top beds with quality linens - King, Queen, Full, and two twins. There is also a memory foam queen sleeper sofa in the den.
The Haven is an ideal opportunity for wine enthusiasts wanting to learn more about the Walla Walla appellation! Customized tours, tastings, and unique events available for Haven guests. Check out our tour company CuratedWW for details.
Proximity to Whitman College makes The Haven ideal for inviting your student's roommates and fellow Whitties over for a home-cooked meal.
