Downtown Vancouver is one mile south and the new Vancouver Waterfront is less than two miles from Fern Cottage. Get to downtown Portland in about 15 minutes and Portland International Airport is only a 20-minute drive. Fern Cottage features a loft bedroom with a king bed and high-quality linens. Another queen-size murphy bed is adjacent to the living room. Amenities include full kitchen, cooking equipment, spices, a full bathroom, spacious great room with large sectional sofa, gas fireplace and shuffleboard table. Washer/dryer unit located in bathroom.

We had the best time. Enjoyed the fireplace, hot tub and fire pit and space in general - it’s so beautiful! Saw raccoons and opossums, a hummingbird and squirrels. It was the best, we loved it!

Whenever we are down in the Vancouver/Portland area we will absolutely try to stay here every time. This was one of the best Airbnb’s we have stayed at. You can really tell that Kandra put in a lot of love and attention to every detail. The house is incredibly cozy and welcoming, we will absolutely stay here again and every time we are in this area.

This place was a wonderful and peaceful stop on our road trip. The Airbnb was extremely clean, unique, and very well maintained. We especially loved the shuffleboard and the cozy loft bedroom. Everything about our stay felt thoughtful and well run. We truly enjoyed our time here and will definitely plan to stay again the next time we pass through Vancouver. Thank you!
