Papa's cottage
We had a great stay. The cottage was bigger than expected and worked out great for us.

Amazing Opportunity
As a native Idahoan, I have been visiting Pomerelle for over 30 years. This is an amazing place to stay and it gives you the ability to ski the first runs of the morning till mid afternoon, go back to the house, take a nap, eat an early dinner, and head back up for some night skiing. You can't beat the location if Pomerelle is your final destination.
It is well equipped and suited our needs perfectly. It has a Keurig, traditional coffee pot, and a french press. I couldn't find that in the description and took my own press but we were good anyways. There is only one restaurant in town so having the ability to make our own food was perfect.
We will definitely do this trip again.

We stayed here for a family reunion nearby
This cottage was perfect for our family of five.
The cozy and thoughtful design was utterly charming. We had a tiny snafu with coffee that our host remedied expertly.
If you stay here and crave BBQ, check out Piggy Sue’s BBQ around the corner.

This place was perfect
This cottage was really, really nice. They did a great job and it looks really good inside. We had a family reunion a block away and it was nice to have our own space. Would recommend this place to anybody

Just wonderful!
Wonderful find in the quaint town of Albion. Very small community, but within a short drive, plenty to explore. Our host Tracy, was a great communicator and was invested in our desire to be happy with the stay. She was on top of any issue that arose and took care of it promptly.
The cottage itself is immaculate and welcoming and cozy. Super awesome, soft, bed linens, which are big for me. Kitchen is fully stocked, and overall, even though it is "old" the renovations and upgrades make it feel like a luxury stay.
It is obvious that the Old Albion Cottage was a place surrounded by love. Thank you for allowing us to share in that. ❤

Comfortable cottage in quiet neighborhood
The cottage is a very nice and cozy property located in the small town of Albion. The cottage is accessible, by car, to a variety of southern Idaho points of interest and scenic byways including City of Rocks, Twin Falls, Snake River, Perrine Bridge, Minidoka National Historic site. Host Tracy was very accommodating and provides a great deal of pertinent and interesting information that made our stay very enjoyable.

Comfortable, cozy and creative.
Pros:
Everything you'd want in a extended stay. From management to all the amenities to the mixed-style decor, I would absolutely stay at this home again without hesitation if we return to the area. In terms of amenities this place has it all, literally. Comfortable, cozy and creative that has a woman's touch. The welcome sign is a nice, personal detail.
Con:
Location. It's situated literally in the middle of nowhere in a very small town that doesn't offer a lot of amenities. Very quiet and quaint, maybe too much for some ppl.
If you plan to cook you will need to get your groceries elsewhere. Elsewhere is a bit of a distance. So plan ahead.

Oasis in the middle of Albion
What an incredible spot- clean, cozy and bright. The property owner did a great job in making the place welcoming for our family after 2 days of skiing at one of the best kept secrets in Idaho, Pomerelle Ski Resort. Thank you for providing a great experience!

Wonderful getaway in rural Idaho
We were looking for a place to getaway in Southern Idaho to explore and this home was perfect for our family of 6. The home was furnished beautifully and had everything you would expect or hope for plus more. We enjoyed trying out the Tempur-Pedic mattresses and the Internet/wifi was great for downtime in the cottage.
Highly recommended!

The Great Escape to Small Town America
Choosing to visit Albion was done in an effort to simply escape the Covid19 isolation blues. We chose a place on the map where the county had zero reports of any cases, and Albion looked as good as anywhere else!
We honestly had no idea what to expect, and we were quickly charmed with the small town tucked in near the base of Pomerelle Ski Resort.
The Cottage was beautifully decorated with everything that anyone could want. It was charming, comfortable, and we felt right at home as if it was our own.
If your are either a ski/boarder enthusiast, or a climber exploring The City of Rocks, then look no further. The Old Albion Cottage is ideal for your getaway away from the hustle and bustle.
Thank you to Tracy and her family for everything!

Relaxing Getaway
The Old Albion Cottage was an amazing home. It appears small from the outside, but there was plenty of room for everyone. The beds were comfortable with Sleep Number mattresses in the bedrooms and amazing foam ones in the sleep porch. The modern kitchen had all the amenities one could ask for. We have stayed in many vacation rentals and this one was by far the most well equipped. Upon checkin there was delicious homemade bread waiting for us on the kitchen table. We felt very welcome. The area is quaint with historic buildings nearby. We enjoyed spending the day exploring Mt Harrison and going to the nearby Burley Straw Maze. I would recommend the Old Albion Cottage to anyone who needs to relax and unwind.

Amazing Idaho Cottage!!! Great for kids and access to City of Rocks!!
We had a great trip to Idaho and really enjoyed this amazing little cottage. Our kiddos loved sleeping on the beds in the cute front nook.
The 4th of July celebration in Albion was unique and great for kids. Lots of floats, candy and had a hometown feel.
The cottage is centrally located in town and we loved being able to walk to the playground and ice cream shop. Next time we will have to bring our bikes!
We went to Burley for the pool and the fireworks on the golf course. The fireworks were spectacular! They were so close, really right over our heads! We were also super close to the City of Rocks National Reserve. We loved hiking and exploring the unique landscape and knowing we had a hot shower and cozy place to come home to at night.
I love the decor and furnishings at the Old Albion Cottage. I am also a VRBO host in our home so I truly appreciated having everything we needed available and such a cozy and clean place. The kitchen was well stocked with knives, utensils, and pots/pans to cook.
I can tell this is a special place for the owners and now this is also a special place for us! We are already thinking about the next time we can come visit!

Great cottage getaway in cozy environment!
The cottage is a well designed cozy cottage! Perfect for families and couples looking to get away and spend time in the serene town of Albion! Restaurants are a close drive but you also have everything you need to prepare a meal at home. We enjoyed the sleep number beds and all the accomdations the cottage had to offer!

Quaint outside, brand new inside
This was the perfect little launching point for our family. The location is central to so many attractions and recreational spots and the drive to anywhere from the house is easy. The house is beautifully restored, it could not be more comfortable. A perfect getaway!
Spacious home that is clean and beautiful! The beds were not too comfortable and there was no work desk but that is minor

Charming, cozy & clean
This cottage was perfect for what my family of 5 needed. We were in the area to attend a family reunion in nearby Burley, ID. After the daily chaos of reunion activities, it was so nice to "come home" each evening to a place of our own. The cottage was spotless and perfectly clean, including the bed linens (which is a huge deal for me). My two boys (ages 10 and 12) loved sleeping on the day beds. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone who needed a place to stay in the area.
