Avis Charming Fisherman’s Cottage, Sleeps 4

My wife and I enjoyed a wonderful but too short vacation to Brownlee Reservoir and the Wallowa Mountains in May. This wonderful old farmhouse was our base. With Bullock Orioles nesting in the back yard trees and a covey of Quail in the driveway, and the Powder River backing up to the hayfields of the ranch. A simple, clean, and well maintained accommodation, it was perfect for us and our dog. Literally 1/2 mile from two boat ramps and a mile from a good country grocery/hardware/liquor/fishing tackle store it’s a fine place for up to four people to relax. Great communication with the host during our stay. Enjoy!

This house is an old farm house that has been kind of renovated. It is functional. For us, it served it's purpose. We used it only for sleeping. It was kind of dirty, and smelled funny. We left the windows open all morning and it helped with the smell. BUT, there was lots of flies, and it tooks us about an hour to get ride of them. Beds are comfortable. Kitchen is in a good shape and has most of utensils you may need. They provided toiletries and towels. Baths are good, too. There is a full fence yard, for your dogs to run free. Owner is nice to leave brochures with things to do around. It is quite and relaxing. Bedroom windows have curtains that let the light in. If you are a light sleeper, it won't work for you. It is in the middlemof a rural area, the house has mice traps around the house, and even though we did not see any mice, we found mouse droppings. I will give this place a 7.8/10.

It was an opportunity to stop the buzzing whirring of working life and just sit in near silence and take in the local scenery and wildlife

If you're looking for the Hilton this country home isn't for you but it was perfect for us we were there to fish rest and have a nice clean place and it was that.

Could use some yard clean up. Toilet seat needs replaced in the main bathroom. Toilets could also stand to be taller. There was no propane for the BBQ. It is a good setup for a bunch of guys looking for a place to stay for a fishing trip. Could use a dishwasher and washer and dryer for longer stays. Over all we enjoyed our stay.
