When I opened the door to Whispering Walnut loft, I literally gasped as I looked around the beautiful space! I soaked in every little detail … the decor, the windows/skylights, the furniture that was built from a walnut tree that grew in this yard, the cozy leather pieces and furry throws to snuggle under, the quality linens, the impeccable cleanliness, the top-notch, perfectly sized appliances, and the focal point of the vaulted bedroom space was absolutely stunning! Cozy, clean, comfortable, beautifully constructed and attention paid to every little detail. It was an honor and joy to be a guest in this space that felt so loved and cared for. There is not a single thing I would change. Thank you for a lovely stay!

We absolutely loved our stay! The house was immaculately clean and smelled amazing the minute we walked in. It was so thoughtfully decorated—every space felt cozy, welcoming, and well put together. I especially loved the little nod to the historic home next door by incorporating those same beautiful focal windows into the new build. Such a unique and charming detail. The bedding and linens were incredibly comfortable, and everything just felt high quality and cozy. The location was great too—super close to Main Street, easy to get to everything, but still tucked away in a quiet neighborhood. We would 100% stay here again and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it to friends and family. Such a wonderful place to stay!

Best VRBO we have ever stayed in. It was spotless and so welcoming with perfect decor and design. Information about our stay upon arrival (both digital and physical) was extensive and much appreciated. Will definitely recommend to friends and family and hope to return in the future!

We had an amazing stay at this Stillwater VRBO during our mini-moon after our wedding. The home was clean, comfortable, and exactly as described in the listing. It felt like the perfect place to relax and unwind while still being close to everything downtown Stillwater has to offer. While there was plenty of street parking available, the two off-street spots made parking especially convenient.The hosts were incredibly kind and quick to respond, which made everything easy from booking through checkout.If you’re looking for a great place to stay in Stillwater, we’d absolutely recommend Whispering Walnut. We’d gladly stay here again!

A Hidden Gem with Heart and HistoryWhispering Walnut exceeded every expectation. Ian and Pam have created something truly special — a beautifully designed carriage house that blends modern comfort with deep, authentic character. The story of the old walnut oak tree living on in the custom-crafted furniture is something you simply don’t find anywhere else.Ian was incredibly welcoming and genuine. You can tell he and Pam put real love into this property and their guests. If you’re looking for a stay that feels personal and memorable — look no further. We’ll absolutely be back.

A stunning, superbly decorated, comfortable and well located rental. We stay in a LOT of vacation rentals and have become so weary of the bare, stark rentals done by up and coming investors.This is NOT a quickly thrown together rental for the purpose of ROI, but a thoughtfully crafted homage to the neighborhood and charming community in which it is situated. It is cozily and purposefully appointed with high end finishes. The color scheme shows talent! It is warm and inviting. The kitchen is well equipped, the towels are oversized, bed linens, appliances and furnishings are high end. Off the street parking is smack at the bottom of the stairs. It’s very close to the city stairs down to the riverfront. Just absolutely charming. I highly recommend.

The Whispering Walnut was beautiful and perfect! Pam and Ian went above and beyond with every thoughtful detail to make this stay just right! The location was perfect for exploring Stillwater - downtown was just a couple of blocks and down the overlook stairs. It was nice to walk into town and then be able to leave the busy streets for a quiet place to sleep!
