The Haven is a gem of a rental! We loved the big kitchen, dining room, living room and TV 'den'. It was the perfect layout for our holiday family gathering. We played a ton of games, watched movies, and made delicious food.
Fab Whitman location...just a block and half away from campus and easy walk to downtown if you want. Surrounded by beautiful homes, so fun walking area. We brought the dog, so it was a lovely place to exercise him. (must crate if you leave your dogs alone, but we never did).
We loved the hot tub on these cold winter days/nights!
The house can be cold in the winter, but there are two supplemental heaters that we were able to shift around when needing a bit of extra heat around Grandma.
The kitchen is stocked, but if you need certain types of pans/tools for cooking a special recipe, you may want to bring it with you. (for example, there was no casserole dish, but I was able to purchase one for use while there...if you need a roasting pan or something like that...bring it).
The home is well stocked with games/puzzles which we enjoyed. The home was lightly decorated for the holidays which made it extra special!
My young adult kids and I thought the beds were comfortable.
Overall GREAT stay!
Sue's communication was top notch and helpful. The instructions were clear and easy to follow.

This property is fabulously dressed, inside and out. A Craftsman house that welcomes you the moment you open the door. We were always seeing something that started a conversation, from the Antiques to the modernized kitchen. And the beds are very, very comfy. You won't be disappointed in a stay here!

It's a lovely older house with an updated kitchen and bathrooms, but retains the charm of the nearly 100 year old home. They were very accomodating allowing us to bring lur dogs. One of the best features of the property is it's well maintained backyard with lots of shade for hot walla walla weather. We enjoyed the hot tub and the house is well located for explorinv the town.

We had a great stay at the Haven. Check-in was easy. The house is lovely and the yard is beautiful. Loved sitting on the front porch and in the backyard. The location makes it super easy to walk to the Whitman campus and downtown. Sue is a very attentive host and we appreciated her hospitality.

We stayed here to do a little snowboarding up at Bluewood and move our daughter back in to Whitman for spring semester. Great location with all of the comforts of home. The hot tub was a great bonus after a day on the slopes!

This home is conveniently located take the Whitman campus and downtown Walla Walla. The home is situated off of a quiet street with a nice front porch and backyard oasis. The house had everything we needed and more. The beds and sheets were comfortable. Sue provided excellent communication to us prior to and during our stay. Sue was helpful in connecting us with services that enhanced our stay via curated wallawalla. We appreciated that the house was pet friendly with an fenced in back yard.

The Haven was a very nice, historic home to stay in while visiting Walla Walla. It was very close to everything and in a beautiful neighborhood. The home was clean, and the photos were accurate of what it looked like in person. We had two frustrations though; we received a text on our way to the home that the gas BBQ was not working, and we would not be able to use it during our visit. Since it was a hot summer weekend, we would have really enjoyed having the opportunity to cook outside. The other frustration is that this home is labeled as dog friendly. But the backyard has a large plum tree, and there were several hundred plums all over the ground. Plums are poisonous to dogs, as their pits have cyanide in them. This will kill dogs. So, we had to watch our dogs like hawks when they were outside and felt like we could not really be in the backyard at all without risking them eating them. These plums also had fallen all over the picnic table, and this would have risked our clothing being stained unless we cleaned the back yard and table ourselves. Other than this, the home and area was beautiful, we enjoyed our stay.

Terrific W2 rental
This was our second stay at the Haven and it was just as lovely as the first. The weather in Walla Walla didn't cooperate -- it rained daily during our stay -- so having a cozy, comfortable, spacious house was essential to enjoying the trip. Everything worked as advertised and we enjoyed the hot tub as always.

Wine weekend
We rented this place for a trip to the estate wineries. The house and backyard are cute and clean. We had a toddler with us that loved climbing the stairs and playing the piano. If traveling with one that needs a “blackout” room for sleeping, I’d suggesting bringing a temporary/removable solution for the bedrooms, as the window treatments are sheer. We would stay here again.

We couldn't have picked a better place for our girls wine getaway. The Haven was better stocked than any house I have ever rented. The kitchen area was perfect for cooking and congregating and we thoroughly enjoyed dining in the backyard in the sunshine. Sue responded quickly and was a pleasure to work with. We would love to come back and stay again.

Three girlfriends stayed at The Haven and I had a wonderful time in Walla Walla (April 29- May 02, 2022). We loved our stay at the Haven. The accomodations were excellent and it was very comfortable. The Haven is close to Whitman, Pioneer Park and downtown wine tasting. We walked to all those places. The pink dogwoods were in bloom and they were spectacular. I would recommend The Haven as a great place to stay in Walla Walla.
