**Wildlife & Insects Disclaimer**

Our Cottage in the Woods offers a true nature experience! You might enjoy spotting beautiful critters like deer, elk, squirrels, hummingbirds, and bunnies. On rare occasions, larger wildlife have been seen in the general area, so please be mindful when outdoors.

Not all woodland visitors are soft and cuddly — this includes insects such as mosquitoes, flies, gnats, and box elder bugs. They’re harmless but can be pesky when they decide to congregate. We do our best to keep the cottage comfortable and exceptionally clean, though now and then a few bugs may find their way inside our warm, inviting slice of heaven.

Great place to home base for adventures in Washington and Oregon. Right off the interstate, but yet tucked away for privacy with nature all around. Frequent visits from deer and rabbits. Huge washer and dryer; well stocked kitchen; high definition TV with superb recliners / sofas. Had our aging parents with us, so the drive up car port right by the door was so nice. Highly recommend!!

We had family to visit in Longview, WA and this property was just perfect. Close to town, yet secluded in the woods. We loved the privacy and no neighbors feel.
