Fern cottage is a quaint, cozy space set in a peaceful forest surrounding. The interior is decorated beautifully with so much attention to detail, this is not your average Airbnb. A Big comfy sofa in front of the fireplace with a cute Christmas tree made this space so cozy. The bed is lovely with high quality linens and lots of pillows. Kandra is friendly and quick to respond. It’s apparent she really takes pride in sharing this space with guests. This was a wonderful stay and we will return. Thanks Kandra!

Our family had the best Christmas at Fern Cottage! We looked for the perfect place to stay for Christmas and Fern Cottage was exactly what we wanted. The place is more beautiful in person and is as the pictures show. Everything was clean and well cared for. Instructions were clear. Kandra was a friendly, helpful host. We had a peaceful and relaxing stay. We look forward to returning to Fern Cottage.

We had a wonderful stay at Fern Cottage. It is so charming and cozy. The location is great -close to downtown Vancouver and Portland. Everything was as described. The host was very responsive and accommodating. If I ever find myself in this area again I would stay here in heartbeat.

Great spot to explore Vancouver and Portland! Enjoyed the shuffle board and hot tub. Walkable distance to lots of cafes, breweries and restaurants. Very clean and well appointed, spa like bathroom. Definitely recommend!
