Perfect Place!
Everything about this cottage is perfect! The location is walkable to everything in central Ashland. It's a beautiful property and very well maintained. It's 2 bedroom and 2 bathroom and perfect for 2 individuals or 2 couples because each room has dedicated access to its own bathroom....so it's 2 en suites. Our host, Sugar, was the best! Very friendly, helpful and gave us great recommendations. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to others.

Great House with a Prime Location
The house is very comfortable and has everything you need. The kitchen is well appointed if you want to cook and eat in. We stayed just before the holidays on this visit and there were holiday lights on the front porch and a Christmas tree in the living room which made the house extra cheery.

About the host

Hosted by Sugar Mejia

Host profile image
I look forward to welcoming you to Ashland. I have lived in small towns, big cities and in several different parts of the country -- Ashland is the best of all! Small town charm with big city sophistication, world-class theatre, restaurants, shopping and a backdrop of magnificent mountains and beauty everywhere! Hiking, skiing, river rafting, wine tours, beer tastings, great coffee, interesting foods...there is something for everyone here in the Rogue Valley!

Why they chose this property

Second Street Cottages is ideally located if you are looking forward to enjoying short walks to wonderful restaurants, world-class theatre, fabulous shopping, unique art, great coffee houses, exciting nightlife, wine tasting rooms, Lithia Park and more (all within one to three blocks of the house). Described as a “year-round paradise,” Ashland draws visitors from around the world during all of its magnificent four seasons. This location is the perfect "home base" -- within minutes of downtown there is world class white water rafting, kayaking and fishing, mountain biking, hiking, birding, golfing, skiing, snowshoeing, and Creek to Crest and Pacific Crest Trails. Ashland has become a popular destination for wedding and annual family reunion location with an international airport less than 20 minutes away in Medford, OR. Both units on this property can be rented (depending upon availability) and will accommodate up to 13 guests.

What makes this property unique

Guests love the quiet location combined with closeness to town and theaters. With porches and patios, there are places outside and indoors to gather -- or have quiet time to yourself. Short walk to everything -- comfortable, clean and beautifully appointed.
