About this property

Hockinson Carriage House - You Won't Want to Leave

During Covid-19 we enhanced our cleaning and sanitation procedures. We clean with Clorox and wipe frequently touched surfaces with extra attention. While cleaning we wear Nutrile Gloves and wear masks as an additional precautionary measure. We have updated our check-in process and our guest information packet to make it easy and to incorporate social distancing to make you feel safe and comfortable. Recently we added YouTubeTV with Netflix and Prime Video for your enjoyment. 42" Roku Smart TV.
We now include a BBQ as an additional cooking option. Kayaks are down by the pond and ready for use should you choose - fishing is generally good - catch and release only please.
Your stay can be as peaceful and relaxing as you desire. The property invites exploration at your leisure - with walking paths to make it easy and safe. The carriage house is private and comfortable with separate entrance and parking. On a private, paved road the property sits on 5 mostly wooded acres, with a creek, blueberry field, small fruit orchard, fenced raspberry patch, 8 chickens and a two acre pond. You are only a mile from the little town of Hockinson with a store, gas station and a tap room. You are 6 miles from the town of Battleground which offers all services and a neat downtown for shopping, antiquing, winery and multiple restaurant options We are 30 minutes from the Portland Airport and 30 minutes to downtown Portland. Stay a night or use as a base to explore/visit Portland, Multnomah Falls, Columbia River Gorge, Vancouver, Mount St Helens and more...

Heavenly

The hosts were very welcoming. If you like Country living, this is the place to stay. It is quiet, clean, and the Carriage House is cozy with the amenities of home. There are chickens on the premises and the hosts welcome you to have some fresh eggs if you would like for breakfast. It looks just like the pictures you view on line. I wouldn't hesitate to rent again in the future!

Cutest and comfiest vrbo!

This is by far the cutest and comfiest vrbo we've ever stayed in! Spacious upstairs studio room, with charming cabin decor and all the kitchen and bathroom supplies that we needed. Check-in instructions were clear and easy (as were the thermostat and tv instructions). And we really appreciated the pancake mix and fresh eggs that were provided. Thanks Artie and Radwyn for going above and beyond!

Slice of paradise!

Everything about our stay was absolutely wonderful! The accommodations were comfortable, clean and well suited for our needs. The surrounding area stole my heart! I loved everything about this location and I can’t wait to go back. The owners were super kind and attentive without being overly present. I’m grateful for how they operate their rental.

We highly recommend this property. Our stay was incredible. The unit is very nice and clean, and the surrounding property is amazing. The only thing better than the property is the hosts. Artie and Radwyn are some of the most friendly people we have ever met, and they go out of their way to make you feel comfortable and at home. The only thing to note is that Verizon is the only cell service that works at the property. However, they have good WiFi available, so it wasn’t really an issue for us. We would certainly come back!

Great rural, peaceful spot

Set back on a rural property in a private carriage house among large trees and spacious yard/garden. We attended wedding festivities, so we only spent slow mornings lounging in the carriage house while sipping coffee before heading out for the day & evening. Very nice spot and we look forward to visiting again! - Scott & Kerrie

Beauty and calm in the country

This was our second stay at the Hockinson Carriage House—and we’ll be back! Artie and Radwyn are excellent hosts. Carriage House is expertly provisioned and immaculate. We love the fun, country decor, small farm and safe, secluded setting. It’s such a relaxing place to stay for car drives, and a real treat to stretch our legs with a walk through the beautiful property.

A beautiful location and room

This property is in a beautiful country setting and the room is comfortable, well furnished and clean. The wifi is excellent...and needed, due to no cell service by our provider. The grounds are so pretty and nicely maintained. We would definitely stay here again if back in the area.

Perfect Getaway

Beautiful, quiet, private country setting. The hosts were very gracious and quickly responded to questions about the property. The loft was very clean, cozy and offered all the amenities as described. Getting pizza from Hockinson Market is a must! We would definitely recommend the carriage house to friends and family.

So cute and cozy - pictures don't do it justice!

Private and quiet location, very serene, and yet close to the bigger cities if you want to jump over to Portland or Vancouver. We had a pizza from Hockinson Market - highly recommend - it was delicious, and very close. The minute you go onto the property you felt like you were stepping into your own private home away from home. Plenty of space for a couple and spotless - very well maintained. As others have mentioned, the bathroom was spacious, with plenty of hot water available as well as plenty of towels and toiletries. We just felt so comfortable and welcomed! Great communication from the owners and would love to stay again!

Rural relaxation at Carriage House

Quiet, rural beauty! The long private drive is fully paved, leading to an enchanting farm. The Carriage House above the garage was immaculate, spacious and had everything we could need. We especially appreciated the new bath towels and full-length bathroom counter. The kitchenette is tiny but amazingly well stocked. We ate out, but enjoyed the thoughtful microwave popcorn and selection of coffees and teas for the Keurig. Our hosts were excellent communicators and so kind. We highly recommend the Carriage House!

Carriage House March 2023 Review

I really liked how quiet it is here. I'm a light sleeper and I overslept every morning because there were no sounds to wake me up. I brought my bike and kayak and the owner allowed me to store the bike in the garage underneath the rental. Additionally, I was able to use this space to hang my wet kayak gear for drying. The heating and cooling in the unit is very easy to control. There was plenty of extra space in a full size fridge in the garage for storing the week's worth of extra food I brought with me.

Charming spot out in the country

My mom and I had a wonderful time staying at this property for a few days in August, 2022. We wanted to spend our days at Battleground Lake State Park with other relatives, but were looking for a more cushy experience than camping. So we slept at this carriage house, and drove over to the lake each day. It was just an adorable and perfect place for our needs. The property is lovely - trees and flowers and a pond, feels private and peaceful. The apartment itself was darling - cute little decorations, clean, tall vaulted ceilings, spacious, airy, lots of light - it just felt wonderful in there. It was well-stocked with toiletries, towels, etc. Not a full kitchen, but a little kitchenette area; that was fine with us. We had a slight mix-up about the reservation, but our hosts (A&R) were lovely and friendly and helpful in every way, once we figured it out together. Would highly recommend!

I love this place, cozy and quiet. At least one night we get a pizza from Hockinson Market stay in, and relax. If we were not moving just a few minuets down the road we would stay there again. We will defiantly suggest it to company that comes to visit.
