About this property

Spacious, Private Home Away From Home with Hot Tub

Just 20 minutes from downtown, our sunny daylight basement has recently been remodeled for you! Enter through your own door with a key-pad lock. A hot tub and gazebo are right outside the door, with patio furniture, a gas fire pit, and a BBQ grill ready to be enjoyed. The interior space is bright and sparkling clean! The kitchen opens into the family room with a smart TV. Just around the corner are two bed rooms and a newly remodeled bathroom. Now offering outdoor pool rental and electric bikes!

We have put a lot of thought and care into this space to make it a special get-away for you! Our new granite-and-tile kitchen has a deep sink, fridge, microwave, toaster oven, and a single burner for you to use, as well as basics like pots and pans, oil, butter, spices and salt and pepper. We have also included a new Keurig coffee maker and our favorite teas/hot cocoa for you to enjoy (as well as cream and sugar).

The sleeping area is well stocked with new bedding and furniture! In the picture you can see the king bed and full sized pull-out sofa bed (these two sleep 4 total). Just down the hall there is another bedroom with a twin-over-full bunk bed. In addition, we have a twin sized pull out mattress for the floor and a Pack n Play for a baby or toddler. We are also happy to provide sheets, blankets and a pillow for the couch. This means we can sleep 8 adults and 1 baby/toddler. Please let us know in advance if you will be needing the additional bedroom, a mattress for the floor, the couch or the Pak n Play.

The over sized master bedroom includes a desk, office chair, and lamp for remote work.

Our family room is well stocked with games (Settlers of Catan, Ticket To Ride, etc.), books, and puzzles for down-time.

There is a new 7-person hot tub available for guests, included with the VRBO booking and exclusively yours while you are here. A waiver must be signed by every adult, and by a parent/guardian of every minor before the hot tub can be used.
There is an open (no fence) pool on the property that can be available for all or part of your stay for an additional $50/hour, depending on availability. The pool is available between Memorial Day and Labor Day. If interested, check out the app Swimply and ask us about the promo code for a guest discount!

**NEW**
We are now offering 2 ELECTRIC BIKES for rental! If you have not tried E bikes, you will be thrilled at this exhilarating way of enjoying nature. We are surrounded by an abundance of natural beauty and plenty of places to ride bikes and get out for some fresh air. On E bikes you can travel much further than on regular bikes, still getting plenty of exercise but without feeling exhausted. You will be refreshed and invigorated. Dave and I loooooove our E bikes and invested in them to enhance your enjoyment of the beautiful Spokane area. $45/day per bike.

Absolutely NO tobacco inside the apartment and no marijuana anywhere on the property. There will be a $200 fee for non compliance and your reservation will be cancelled. Thank you for your cooperation here.

Great value

Place was very clean and had everything e yea you could want. The owners were very kind and quick to answer questions. Accessing unit was easy and didn’t feel intrusive. Only negative was the mattresses. They molded into your body until you felt like you were in a hole and when you roll over you literally feel like you’re climbing uphill. All 3 of us had a rough time sleeping. Still a great value for the money!

Cute and Cozy

Even though in a basement, it was bright and cozy. Rooms were spacious and we were never tripping over each other throughout our 3 night stay. Enjoyed lounging in the living room at the end of the night and watching movies. Very close to a lot of amenities and Whitworth University (the purpose of our trip). Hosts were very kind and responsive before, during and after our stay. Highly recommend over a hotel.

Wonderful Experience

We were in Spokane visiting a college with our sons. The location was perfect. The neighborhoods was welcoming. The spacious layout and design were very comfortable. We loved having a hot tub with bathrobes for the cold walk outside. We were welcomed to the apartment with a sweet note and brownies. Communication with the owners was so easy through the VRBO messaging system. It was a perfect place to call home away from home. My only comment is that I didn't read the amenities carefully - there is no oven/stove top range but they do have a toaster oven, hot plate and microwave for cooking. We loved our stay and will stay again when we visit our son in Spokane.

This is a clean, cozy and spacious apartment in a quiet neighborhood. We look forward to returning when we are in Spokane again and we'll bring the rest of the family. Beds were so comfortable and warm. Really enjoyed the white noise machines, too. Not enough time to use the hot tub but it was tempting!

Fantastic

This was a great little property. Clean and spacious. The three boys were able to stay in one room together because of the bunk beds. My husband and I didn't hear a peep from them all night! The neighborhood is quiet and lots of essentials not far away. Would definitely stay here again. THANK YOU!!!

Highly Recommended!

Myself, my husband and our two kids stayed here for 5 days and 6 nights. We all really enjoyed the apartment, the quiet neighborhood, and the location. We made several trips into Newport to visit family and this was very convenient, not requiring us to go too far into Spokane. Very fairly priced, we couldn’t find a hotel that was anywhere near competitive and wouldn’t have been this comfortable and spacious. Amenities and extra items provided really made our stay easier. Great hosts with very good communication. We will stay again!

Very warm and inviting! The brownies were wonderful! Everything that we needed and more, you had for us. My sister-in-law, mother-in-law and I really enjoyed the hot tub! Wish we would have had more time to enjoy the patio. And the connection made with Zimbabwe was surprising and fun! If we get out to Spokane again, we will definitely look into staying once again!

Hidden fees and early wake ups

Overall the stay was great. The location is as described and no issues with it. Check in process great, communication with the owners was fine. Now the not so hot stuff; Hidden fees, i read the description about 20 times as j wanted to ensure there were no hidden fees as the locatio. Said it maxed out at 8. However the owners charge a fee between $20 and $10 per an extra guest after 4 people. So for my family of 6 i ended up paying $40 on top of the daily night fee. This isnt something that would cause me not to book but shocking as to why the fee was there. Without any disclosures Be aware; there is a renter above the unit they like to jam out to their music, drums, and have dogs. We did find dog poop in the yard on the check out day (sunday) between 9am and 10am when we left. But the worst part of this is the dog decided it wanted to give us a 430am wake up call on the first night. We were not happy campers with having the dog wake us all up at 430 in the monring. Additionally you could hear ever footstep from the people upstairs. Not a huge issue. But with the added yappy dog that like to run and slide around the hard wood floor at random hours of the day we were not over joyed. This review could of been an easy 5 stars if we were aware about renters above, hidden fees disclosed prior to finalize booking, and a 11 am check out vs 10am.

About the host

Hosted by Dave and Anne Nelson

Host profile image
Dave and I have been married for over 29 years. We have five children (1 living at home still): 3 out of college, 1 in college, 1 in high school. We love hospitality and have had 20 people live with us over the years! We love making people feel at home and comfortable. Our goal is to provide a delightful, refreshing place for you to retreat while you are in the area. We are here on the property if you need anything--please do not hesitate to reach out. Your comfort and relaxation are our top priority! However, if you want to pretend we don't exist, that is fine too! (We do live upstairs and you will hear us from time to time as we go about our daily life. We try to stay as quiet as possible).

Why they chose this property

We are nestled in a quaint suburban neighborhood with well maintained homes and yards. We are 2.5 miles from Whitworth University, and 8 miles from Gonzaga University and within 8 miles of various Greenbluff wedding venues. Nearby you will find a host of restaurants, pubs and coffee shops (including the new north Spokane Costco) and movie theaters. Additionally, we are 20 minutes from Spokane's beautiful Riverfront Park, and the Spokane Valley, and 24 miles from Mt Spokane State Park. There are 5 major ski resorts within 2 hours! Also plenty of nearby hiking, lakes, and bike trails.

What makes this property unique

The whole basement is yours with the exception of two closets that will be locked. You will be the only people in the basement apartment during your stay. We carefully clean the entire apartment after every guest. We strive to make the space beautiful and sanitary (with a special rigorous cleaning protocol during the Covid 19 pandemic).
