Hunterston Cottage -Sleeps 6 - Ft. Sill, Wichita Mountains, Casinos

yes! we have high speed Wi-Fi for FREE!

Less than 1 mile from Ft. Sill Army Base. Close to the Wichita Wildlife Refuge and Medicine Park. Private house with large fenced yard, off-road parking, and very secure. Quiet neighborhood.

View our website for pictures and information! Hunterston Cottage, Lawton, Oklahoma!
Although we were new to VRBO in 2017, the home had been a successful guest cottage for almost 5 years prior to that. We also have a FBpage for Hunterston Cottage where you can connect with us for additional photos and information.

TWO furnished bedrooms with shared hall bathroom include: QUEEN size Bed, fresh towels/ Bed linens, dresser, closet, and nightstand. The home has Central heat and air-conditioner. WiFi, locking bedroom doors, and security surveillance cameras. There is lots of OFF STREET parking in a the large, fenced yard.

In the common areas of the house there is access to a fully stocked kitchen --- refrigerator, microwave, blender, coffee maker, skillets, pots and pans, silverware and dishes, veggie steamer, juicer, food processor, etc. Some breakfast food is INCLUDED in price -- hot/cold cereals, toast/jam, coffee, tea.

Guests have access to the complete and entire first floor. When you book, it's YOUR HOUSE during your stay - no other guests! The entire BnB is your family!

Entire main floor -- includes 2 bedrooms, bathroom, kitchen, dining room, living room, and porch coffee nook as well as the entire 1 acre yard and garden areas. No access to out buildings or basement apartment and laundry area -- laundry will be done by Hostess and returned folded for guests booked FOR AT LEAST FOUR NIGHTS. Set laundry at the top of the stairs in the provided basket by 11 am and send hostess a text. Laundry will be done and returned by 6 pm same day.

Each Bedroom sleeps 2 people (queen size bed) and in the living room, there are two large couches that each sleep one person. The couches are best for people less than 5'8" tall. Couches will have sheets and pillows for sleeping. I can provide a single size air mattress in the space between the dining room and living room if that would be preferred. Please ask in advance of your stay.

I am available for any assistance that you may need during the stay, and I am happy to advise you on the local sites to see, shopping, and travel tips if you are new to Lawton/Ft. Sill. If you like, I can also arrange transportation for sight-seeing or even guide you on a hike through the wildlife refuge!

The cottage is located in a quiet and safe area.
Pharmacy, department stores, grocery stores, etc, are all within 1 mile distance.
You can WALK to several restaurants or drive to many more.

Feel free to ask if you have any questions. I want to do whatever I can to make sure that your stay is comfortable.

House is well-maintained and with original art, antique furniture, and other antiques. This IS, above all else, a family home filled with several generations of heirlooms. Our oldest family heirloom in the house dates to the early-mid 1600s. Bonus points if you can identify it!! :-) PLEASE DO NOT move antiques, china, and other furnishings around. All the China is between 50 and 90 years old. Some pieces are very rare and valuable. Please also refrain from opening every drawer and door on all the antique furniture. Some of them stick and can easily be pulled off track. ((There's always that ONE snoopy guests who just has to go through everything and look in every cabinet ---don't be THAT person)).

If you enjoy art, antiques, and you will LOVE staying in this home. Please feel free to ask for information about anything you see in the Cottage! There is a LOT of history inside!

See Pictures!
Super fast internet.

large MAPS of Lawton and Wildlife Refuge available to study (in the Dining Room)

There are a TV and board games in the living room. We ask that our guests relax and interact with their traveling companions/family, other guests, read, or just sit outside (weather permitting) and just let go of the need to constantly be "plugged in" to technology.

It's an old hardwood floors creak when someone walks across them. Nothing we can do about that!

Just what we needed
After 10 long weeks apart this was the perfect location for our stay as our daughter graduated from basic training at Fort Sill. We could relax and visit and had a great time. We had all that we needed and more including fresh tomatoes from the garden😊Thanks for the flexibility with our check in too. Such a great place!

Great older home
Susanna greeted as we arrived for our granddaughter's graduation from Army basic training. She constantly checked with us to see if we needed anything else. Her house was full of interesting antiques. No tv or radio to distract from family visit. Loved the huge yard with fall trees. Entire yard secured by fence for security.

Plenty of space and all the necessities
We loved our stay at the cottage. Susanna was very helpful and responsive to anything we needed. We rented the cottage for our daughters graduation from basic training. It was perfect for hosting dinners for our family who had come to support our daughter.
