Nestled in a charming neighborhood of historic homes, stroll two blocks to McMinnville's Famous Third Street ~ the mecca of Oregon Wine Country.

Relax in a luxury 1910 craftsman home, recently restored to its turn-of-the-century charm with modern conveniences. Enjoy the peaceful setting on the front porch or BBQ in the back while dining in the Carriage House under the twinkle lights.

As you enter the Cowls Bungalow from the covered craftsman porch, you'll be greeted by the magnificent refinished hardwood floors, complemented by original wood trim and built-ins throughout the home. This 1,100 sq. ft home with high ceilings boasts a spacious open floor plan that seamlessly blends the living, dining, and kitchen, perfect for creating new memories. Meanwhile, the electric fireplace encased in a stone hearth adds a touch of warmth and ambiance.

The Bungalow has two private bedrooms with luxury bedding and pillows, separated by a hall bathroom. The primary bedroom has a king-sized bed with a small private bath and tile surround shower. The second bedroom is a queen-sized bed with ample closet space.

Wine tasting in McMinnville

The house was terrific, spotlessly clean, comfortable and just a few blocks from great restaurants, wine cellars and stores in downtown McMinnville. The kitchen appeared to be well supplied although we didn't use it because of all the fabulous restaurants close by.

Location! Location! Location!

Great place to stay close to 3rd St in McMinnville. After a day of wine tasting we loved being able to walk to dinner and more tasting rooms. Unfortunately, the weather kept us from enjoying the outdoor space so we’ll have to come back and hope the weather cooperates. One thing to note is the very tiny and not so private bathroom in the primary bedroom, which I didn’t realize but wouldn’t keep us from returning. Also, only Folgers was provided for the coffee maker so you may want to bring your own. I do highly recommend staying here.

We loved it!

What a great home! We loved the layout, the decor, convenience to everything, and it was spotless! The home was walking distance to shops, restaurants and wine tastings. Communication with Anita was excellent and everything went so smoothly. This was an annual girls trip with my friend from Portland. We would go back in a heart beat.

Picture Perfect

This house was the absolute perfect home base for our visit to Oregon wine country. The house itself is beautifully appointed. Very comfortable, all the ammenities you could need, and well decorated. The bedrooms, living spaces, and outdoor spaces were all well-proportined and gave us ample room to strech out and enjoy our stay. The location was also terrific. Two short blocks from the main street in town that is lined with shops and restaurants. And only 15-20 minute drive to prime winery areas. We would enjoy our coffee and breakfast in the morning, walk our dog around the charming neighbourhood and then walk to a local place for a light lunch before heading out to the wineries. We would visit 2 or 3 and be home in time for a nap before dinner which again, we could walk to easily. A perfect getaway. Many thanks to our attentive and professional host. She could give a master course in designing, equipping and managing home rentals!

Great bungalow in the Mac

This spot is great if you want an easy walk into town--literally a two minute walk to Third street. Our favorite spots were Harvest Fresh Grocery (great for food and wine selections, as well as premade meals), La Rambla, and the Cellar at Okta. It's a dog friendly house, which was perfect for us. Out pups were very happy to hang out in the fenced backyard, taking advantage of the cool floors in the carriage house. Super comfy beds, well-equipped kitchen, AC, and all the amenities you'd expect. Would definitely stay here again!

Fabulous centrally located Craftsman Cottage

This home is even more beautiful than the photos expressed. Warm woodwork throughout, still with vintage built ins, spacious bedrooms for this era of home, a very comfortable king bed (and I am the princess and the pea picky), lots of thoughtful details including many hooks on the wall as you enter the front door, nicely appointed kitchen, and a mud/laundry as you enter in back for tidying yourself or wiping wet paws. We most certainly will look for the availability of this home again if we are invited back! Thank you to our hosts, and to their wonderful house cleaner who keeps it perfect. 🙏

Great location for first visit to Willamette Valley

Great for visits to wine country. We had zero issues with the home. Property was as described with excellent location. The main selling point for us was the close proximity to all the dining options in McMinnville. It was nice after a day of wine tasting to have so many walking distance (5 minutes) dinner options after our tour company dropped us off at the end of day.

The Perfect Place a McMinnville Stay

Had a wonderful stay at Cowls Bungalow. I’ve rented many VRBO properties, and our time here might have been the best experience ever. The house was well stocked with everything we could possibly need – soaps, paper goods, even bubble wrap to pack our wine glasses. We enjoyed the beautifully decorated spaces and comfort of the furniture and beds. The location can’t be beat as the restaurants, coffee shop, and stores are only a few steps away. Really hoping to find time in our schedules for a much longer stay in McMinnville, and we will only make the trip if Cowls Bungalow can house us.
