About this property

Katie's Kottage #2: 1938 Renovated Midtown Gingerbread Charmer

1938 totally renovated midtown duplex, just 2 blocks from Historic Route 66. If you are attending an event at the Tulsa Expo Fairgrounds, the University of Tulsa, or the BOK Center downtown, this vintage charmer is the place for you to make yourself at home. It is the perfect setting for a couple, or a small family, a ladies' trip, business travelers or fairgrounds exhibitors.

This floorplan allows for 2 bedrooms separated by the shared bath, for more privacy. There are queen sized beds in each bedroom. The bathroom and kitchen are fully stocked. The open kitchen/dining area has all new appliances, with a retro style counter top and matching new chrome dinette set. Large stack washer and dryer. Smart TV to access all your streaming services. You also have access to the free, high speed Cox WiFi. The kottage is decorated with many vintage items of furniture and collectibles. There is a wide circle drive in front to accommodate more than one car and easily access the street. The keyless code panel on the front door allows your check-in to be as quick and effortless as entering your own home.

I’m happy to answer any questions about the Kottage or the area. I would much prefer that you communicate with me right away if there are any issues or questions with the property, so that I may address it asap.

We are just a couple of blocks to a great local diner, Braden Park, and antique stores.
We are located a mile from 1-244, which will take you downtown in 5-8 minutes. There you will find the Tulsa Theater district, Cain's Ballroom, the Blue Dome District, Driller Stadium, and the BOK Center. This historic, artistic area boasts many fine restaurants, art galleries, live music venues and nightlife destinations. Just a couple of minutes from the Kottage, you will find the Pearl District, Cherry Street, and the brand new Mother Road Market. We are very close to two major hospitals, Hillcrest and St. John's, with Utica Square shopping center just across the street from St. John's. Elegant dining and shopping venues are available at Utica Square and Cherry Street and Brookside. There is another side of the duplex (Katie's Kottage #1) for rent as well, with a totally different decoration scheme and 2 bedrooms with each having an ensuite full bath. This side of the duplex is approx. 750 square feet and the #1 side is approx. 850 square feet.

Our favorite house!

My family and I have booked this house for 3 years in a row, whenever we’re in town for a national competition. It’s the perfect space for a small group. Easy access, close to the Expo Square, and walking distance to an amazing diner. Would recommend over and over!

This place is a gem!

We stayed at Katie's Kottage for almost a week and will never stay anywhere else in Tulsa again! The Kottage is fully updated and decorated in a very eclectic and retro style which we absolutely LOVED! The Kottage was very clean and came with everything we needed. Linda is the host with the most and made some great recommendations for antique shopping and dinner/drinks. We loved coming back to the Kottage after a long day shopping! We did not want to leave. Linda, thank you for an amazing stay!

Stayed for extended weekend with family and my dog , competing at the National Agility Competition at the Tulsa expo center. This a 5 star place. Perfect. We ended up going into Tulsa in the evening to watch the NCAA wrestling and it was so convenient. Only 1 mile from the expo center made my morning commute super easy. Had all of the convenience of home with a local charm. Definitely on my “return” list of I come to Tulsa again.

About the host

Hosted by Linda Bishop

Host profile image
I lived in one side of this 1938 duplex when I bought it 30 years ago. It was in original shape at that point. I've just completed a complete renovation of this adorable place that maintains all the vintage charm but provides all the modern amenities. I now own two other properties in the same neighborhood and live in another midtown area just a couple of miles from this vrbo.

Why they chose this property

I've always loved old homes and intriguing vintage furniture and collectibles. The midtown area of Tulsa is the place to find cute homes from the 20's to the 50's. This place originally appealed to me with it's steep "gingerbread" style roof and brick/rock exterior. This neighborhood was originally Mr. White's dairy farm, which is why it's named the White City neighborhood.

What makes this property unique

I love the proximity of any home in the midtown area to shopping, pharmacies, restaurants, nightlife, museums, live music venues, etc.
Traffic in this area is so manageable and you have very quick access to the Broken Arrow expressway or I244 highway.
