Just what I needed
I really enjoyed my stay. I travel for work and just need a place to sleep and privacy. I eat meals out so no need for a full kitchen, There is a small fridge, Micro and Coffee for snacks. Its a great location and the communication was outstanding. I would definitely stay again.

Carriage House: I can’t quit you!
This was my second stay in what has to be the best accommodation spot on the Palouse. Skip the sterile and boring hotel room and do yourself a favor when traveling to Moscow, BOOK the Carriage House!

Wonderful
I seldom write reviews, but I had to take a moment to say what an excellent experience this was. This rental is a cozy little gem! There is a refrigerator and microwave, with a small selection of plates, glasses and utensils. But you are only a few blocks from Main Street if you want to walk down for meals. The bed is super comfortable, so beware of oversleeping! Best of all was the great communication and support from the hosts. They really make you feel at home.

Always love the carriage house
The hosts are so helpful and responsive but not intrusive. The carriage house is cozy and walkable to downtown without having to be in busy hotels. My daughter requests we stay here when we come to Moscow.

The Carriage House is a quiet, cozy, and comfortable stay for one or two. The accommodations are simple and basic - just right for our little getaway. The hosts communicated clearly and had everything ready for our arrival. If you need to steal away for a weekend or a few days of R&R, this is a great choice.

Fantastic little guest house close to downtown
We had a phenomenal time staying at the Carriage House over WSUs move in weekend for our daughter. A great selection of reading books, a very fun and energetic Australian Shepherd and some awesome old trees in the yard. We will be staying here again in the future.

This cottage is tucked in a lovely little historic neighborhood which was a nice surprise! We enjoyed the peace and quiet, watching the silly backyard chickens from the window, the quick hop over to U of I campus and great restaurants in town. Thanks again!

The Carriage House is a gem in this Gem State town. Nestled in a large backyard with chickens and mature trees, this cottage provided tranquility and a convenient base to work and tend to family business. Robyn and Craig have intentionally curated an experience not quite like other VRBO offerings.

Perfect stay in Moscow
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the carriage cottage! Super clean and homey. Really appreciated the coffee/tea with real cream in the morning. The bed was super comfy and the shower was warm with great water pressure. Also loved the location being so close to downtown. We actually walked home one evening. It was our best experience in Moscow yet! Thank you so much!

Wonderful, Quaint, Adorable!
Cutest little studio cabin, and you’d never even know it was there! The setting so honey and comfortable, and it really gives you a feel for the neighborhood and community- much better than a hotel could. While it feels secluded from town in a good way, it is still so conveniently close! We were able to walk to the downtown Saturday farmers market in about 10 minutes. Love this property, will most definitely visit again someday!

Very small hideaway
The Carriage House is a one room accomodation, not a one bedroom. Very cute, but extrememly tight space, even for just two people. The bed took up most of the space, so one person would have to move to let another get into the bathroom. The kitchenette area requires you to get water from the bathroom, but had coffee, tea and a fridge and a little table. The room is tucked behind the house, down a driveway/path. There was some neighborhood noise, but mostyly quiet at night. There are two chairs to sit on, but not really extra space to relax, unless you are laying on the bed. The curtains mostly close, but not completely. Too small for us, but the historic feel could be just right for some.

Comfortable and Well-appointed
We drove in after many days on the road, and we found this cute little place to be a welcome haven for an afternoon/evening of rest & recovery before college tours of University of Idaho and Washington State University the next day. We were very glad that we chose not to stay in a hotel. We stopped off at the local natural foods co-op for a few dinner items, and then had everything we needed to share a quiet meal at ‘home’. Everything was very clean, well-kept, nicely decorated, and well-appointed. Towels & linens felt and smelled freshly laundered. There was a microwave, mini-fridge, Krups coffee maker, dishes, utensils, napkins, coffee, granola, bottled water, wine, chocolate mints, soft cotton bedding, comfortable pillows and mattresses (they put a fully made-up twin sized mattress on the floor for my teenaged daughter, which there was plenty of room for) lots of hot water, good water pressure (I have long, thick hair,) soaps, shampoos, lotions, hangars, hairdryer, cotton terry bathrobes, thick cotton towels, etc. The owners live on site, in the front house with their small children, which worried us a bit when they told us, because we really were tired and needed rest. But it turned out not to be a problem at all. The owners were very on top of communication and finding out what our needs were before we arrived. After showing us in, they left the yard and carriage house entirely to us and our privacy, and it was very peaceful & quiet. I always travel with large paper clamps that I use for curtains in most places that I stay, because I like to sleep past sunrise, and I am very light sensitive. I did use those clamps here, but I find that I need them most places. My husband travels for a living, and often has to work from wherever we are. I must admit that the wi-if is probably a bit slower than he would need to actually work a full day from this location. But the wi-fi was plenty adequate for my daughter & I to do what we wanted to, which is mostly website surfing, checking email & social media, and planning the next day with Yelp and Google Maps (maps did load a bit slowly.) The only single thing we wanted that was not there was hot chocolate, which my daughter has become accustomed to finding wherever she sees a Krups coffee maker. Overall, we found this place exceptionally nice, and the owners to be very on top of things. When we are back in the area, we will stay here again.

Such a gorgeous space - the neighborhood and downtown Moscow did not disappoint. Such good food and great vibes! The carriage house was just what we needed. Only minor issue was there wasn't a lot of coffee to use, mostly decaf and tea.
