A cute little house well appointed
Charming old house with nice updates. The only challenge I had was the bedroom plugs were old and the cord kept falling out. But old house and modern technology are not always perfect so it was fine. It would have been nice to be there when the weather is nice because the yard looked fun.

Wonderful Wonderful Willows in Walla Walla
Our entire group thoroughly enjoyed our time at The Willows. The house, in a nice, quiet neighborhood, is charmingly decorated with many fun-to-discover whimsical touches. The kitchen was great and well-appointed; we cooked one meal there, using the stove and the outside grill. The beds were comfortable in all the rooms, and the linens were plentiful and luxurious. We enjoyed the verdant backyard in the mornings and the evenings (it was really hot when we visited!). We would love to stay there again!

Perfect getaway house
The house was exactly as advertised with lots of surprise amenities like a robe and slippers. While we didn’t walk into town, it is very walkable and a very quiet location. We had a wonderful time and will boom this house again.

The Willows
From the moment you walk into this lovely whimsical home you feel all the tensions of your life melt away. The neighborhood is quiet. The kitchen and baths are well stocked, beds are comfortable and the backyard is so inviting you will want to repeat this experience again. The owner who lives in the back of the property has two small friendly dogs and one cat. You might see them on occasion but that did not bother us. If there is a negative comment it is that the cat lounges on the patio furniture and you’d have to brush off the cat hair to sit down.

Everything we were hoping for
The house was spotlesss and exactly as described and shown in the listing. In addition to the necessities, there were some thoughtful "in case you forgot" items in the bathroom, and the kitchen was fully equipped with plenty of glasses, mugs, dishes and cooking utensils. The only disappointment was that we were too busy to make use of the lovely backyard and patio while we were there. We really enjoyed the sporadic appearances of the ginger cat and the frenchie. Thanks for a lovely stay!

The Willows is Wonderful!
The Willows was a perfect choice for our group of 6 adults for a Walla Walla getaway. The house was clean, kitchen well equipped, beds comfy and the back yard delightful. The location is ideal and within walking distance of downtown, Whitman College and Pioneer Park. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit.

Home away from home!
Excellent property with plenty of room to spread out. 3 full bedrooms ( 2 queen beds, 1 King) with 2 full bathrooms. Kitchen is very well appointed with everything you would need to cook a wonderful meal. Property owner is extremely helpful and her 2 beautiful pups and 1 cat were such a joy! The house is in a great neighborhood and within 1.5 mile of downtown. Easy walk should you want to explore by foot, 15-20 minute walk maybe (we were here at off season so parking our car downtown was easy) Location is within 15 - 20 minute drive of all the different wine areas. We really loved the unique art and decor of the home, lots of games available and TV downstairs for all to enjoy. The backyard had a wonderful sitting area with fire pit where we enjoyed our newly purchased wines. A nice BBQ was available and worked great for our Steak night! The street was very quiet and beds were comfortable. We will keep this home on our short list for sure! NOTE: If you're coming to Walla Walla during crush, I would book WAY in advance. This property and location will for sure be a HOT spot for wine lovers looking to be able to walk to main street tasting rooms. Highly recommended!

Just so so
The backyard patio furniture and table were not clean or taken care of, definitely not inviting. The house had a terrible old, musty smell and the lighting was very dim.
Response from VrboOwner on 17 Mar 2020
I take a great deal of pride in assuring my property is clean and inviting. Guests leave glowing reviews and tell me the home and grounds are amazing. I'm frankly baffled you found it "just so so". The patio furniture is new and well-cared for, the lighting throughout the house are all high-end designer fixtures, and I have never (in 5 years as a vacation rental) had anyone complain of any odors.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Willows.
The Willows is a lovely home filled with great art and all the amenities one might need during their stay. It’s close to downtown and within walking distance of Pioneer Park, which is a really beautiful park with the most interesting aviary. Walla Walla is one of my new favorite places and we hope to come back every year.

Very quaint, well stocked, comfortable beds, updated appliances
everything was really nice. We were there in Oct., so didn't get to utilize the backyard, but it looks super cute. It's the old mixed with new appliances, nice stock of kitchen ware, towels etc were all very nice. I had called specifically about a filtered water pitcher, and was told there was one there, as well as the tap water is very good in Walla Walla. The pitcher is actually missing the filter/container part that goes in the pitcher. We used the filter water feature on the front of the fridge instead to fill our travel water mugs. It was very roomy, and loved the eccentric design of the place.

A lovely retreat in Walla Walla
2 girl friends and I stayed here for a girls' trip this past weekend. It was lovely (and even better in real life than in the pictures!). We particularly enjoyed spending time on the patio looking out at the garden--it was so peaceful and relaxing--the perfect place to drink some coffee or wine and catch up. The house itself was very well appointed and every need was seen to (right down to extra toiletries in the bathrooms in case we forgot any! And a bottle of wine when we arrived--thank you!). The owner is very responsive by e-mail (and I imagine by phone too)---she was very helpful with recommendations and questions. Would definitely stay here again.

Love the Willows
We were a group of six friends who descended on Walla Walla for a girl's weekend. Typically, it's about the destination that makes a trip and not where you stay. This trip, the Willows helped make our vacation even more enjoyable. The house, the decor, the location and the vibe made our trip even better. We loved spending the day shopping and wine tasting and coming back to the house afterwards and hanging out. It's a fantastic place and we would definitely return. Definitely five stars in my opinion.

The Willows was the perfect getaway rental for our moms weekend! It comfortably fit eight of us, and had everything available to make our weekend perfect. The owner was gracious and helped us plan our weekend with wonderful recommendations. The location was within walking distance to downtown, and there was plenty of parking for our three vehicles. An amazing outdoor space was perfect for snacks and mimosas! Thanks so much for the stay, it was the best!
