Summerville, Oregon
If your looking for a relaxing get away retreat, we have a 400 square foot studio apartment with a very comfortable Murphy bed. A complete equipped kitchen, huge walk-in shower, and private deck. Beautiful wooded surroundings, with lots of great hiking and biking in the summer, and cross country skiing and snowshoeing in the winter. A writers paradise.
20 miles out of LaGrande, Oregon. Close to great fishing and rafting on the Grande Ronde river, and the Wallowa river in eastern Oregon.
Also have horseback riding available nearby.
There is no WiFi and no television, but we have lots of DVDs and VHS for your enjoyment.
Adults only please, no children.
If you book in the winter you really need a 4 wheel drive or all wheel drive vehicle. We get lots of snow. We also have snow shoes available.
Make sure you stock up on groceries or goodies before you head out to the studio. We’re 20 miles out of town.
A stones throw down the road is Growiser, a wildflower preserve. Lots of trails and beautiful flowers from April through July.
We are also about 60 miles from Joseph and Wallowa Lake. A beautiful scenic drive to get there. 7 miles away in Elgin is the Excursion Train which takes you into the Minim Wilderness.
Location and quiet, great property. Looking forward to staying there again.
Very secluded and quiet. Very cozy feeling.
We enjoyed the relaxing time at the property. The studio is excellently furnished and very quaint. We enjoyed our hosts and their warm welcome. Take time to sit out in the yard and watch the deer at sunset.
I loved the quiet wooded setting. The homey antique furnishings were delightful. The fully equipped kitchen was a big plus.
Everything described was perfect. The host were fantastic. The scenery amazing and the grounds were beautiful! We loved our stay.
Beautiful area and the hosts are extremely nice and helpful even welcomed us with a homemade zucchini bread which was delicious.
This apartment is above a double car garage. It is very quiet out in the country here and secluded. It's over 5 miles back into town down a gravel road so be sure to bring your own groceries or eat before arriving. We were greeted immediately by the owner who showed us to the apartment and even carried one of our bags up the staircase. He was very friendly and chatted with us, even recommending a place to eat over in Joseph, Oregon, where we were going. The apartment was lovely and had everything one would need to cook a meal. It was very hot when we were there so they had a portable A/C unit on, which we really appreciated. The deck outside has chairs to relax on and enjoy the view of the hillside and woods. It was a very cozy stay here. If you want a quiet place to just relax and unwind, this place is for you! Just be aware that you'll be needing to visit the car wash in Island City on your way out after driving the 5 miles in and back out on the gravel road.
Clean, cozy, quiet, secluded, relaxing. Hosts were friendly and helpful. The property is a little hard to get to, but it is so worth it!
I liked everything. If you are disabled physically, there may be some challenges with the gravel and forested areas. Want to get away from people and life? This is perfect.
A delightful loft. Clean, comfortable and uniquely decorated. Nestled in a quiet forest. Just a few minutes away from the wedding we attended. Our stay was just too short to enjoy it more. Would certainly like to bring husband sometime to enjoy it. Many thanks.
This property is a gem. If y try ou want peace and quiet this is a great place t ok stay. Very comfortable and serene. Had all you needed. For the price you can’t beat it. The hosts are excellent.
It was so great to disconnect and recharge with my husband. It was so cozy and was surrounded by beautiful fields and and trees. It was the perfect fall getaway!
We attended a wedding not far from the property. We wish our stay could have been a couple more days. The property was beautiful, the hosts were very polite and their “guard” dog was so sweet! Thank you again:)
Cute place and very comfortable and quiet- host and hostess were so great. Would definitely recommend!
We were greeted by Donna and Richard when we arrived along with Harley, their dog. The place was so peaceful! I recommend this for any couple wanting to get away and enjoy peace and quiet!
Really enjoyed the stay. The host was very pleasant and inviting. They made you fell at home. The VRBO was extremely clean, well stocked and the location was very private and quiet.
Everything about our stay was perfect. The location, the apartment, the host and the very welcoming puppy. It is always a pleasant surprise to find that the property is as listed, and in this case even above and beyond. We would like to visit again when we can spend time on the deck, enjoying the lovely views.
Perfect place for my Dad and I to stay for a few days while enjoying the outdoors! Super cozy place and wonderful hosts! Highly recommended!
Owners were very nice. Perfect place for piece and quiet
This place is a wonderful loft, creatively decorated surrounded in the natural beauty of the countryside with trees and forestry. Great place to relax, and just chill.
I can’t say enough about this property, from the time you drive up till the time you leave was a very enjoyable experience. I wished I had more time to stay there and will definitely be back. The hosts are wonderful sweet kind people, helpful and communicated very well. I was fortunate to have cell service as well, which I wasn’t expecting. Such a very peaceful place to stay. I would give it 10 stars if that was an option.
We really enjoyed our stay! It was so refreshing to sleep with the windows open in August. They are great hosts!
Very nice stay. Enjoyed it very much
This was truly an amazing experience! From the beautiful scenery, to the amazing hospitality, you won't find a better place to unwind and be in the midst of nature. The first thing I got when driving up to the house was a greeting from their awesome dog Harley Q. As friendly as can be, and the perfect welcoming committee. I could not recommend this stay more!
This is a gem! Tucked away outside the little town of Summerville, OR is this beautiful studio apartment with everything you need for a quiet retreat. You’ll not find more gracious and kind hosts in Donna and Richard. It was like visiting old friends. Can’t say enough about our short stay with them. Thanks!
This is a beautiful place! The owners keep the whole property looking like a park. There is no washer and dryer so you can remove laundry from your list :) It seems I had enough phone service to receive text messages but I had trouble sending (I have Metro). One of the house rules is no bar soap in the shower but fortunately they keep some liquid body wash there for you to use if needed. The kitchen has a nice big sink, pans, dishes for 2, microwave, kurig machine, refrig/freezer and propane stove. There aren't any mixing type bowls but I'm sure the owners would be happy to share anything you may need, they are very nice people.
I had a great stay, it was peaceful and clean. The hosts were sweet and helpful, they directed us to a short hike full of great views and wildflowers. Will need to come back again.
Great
