Welcome to Ladybug Cottage! If this house were a person, she'd be your whimsical, badass, fiercely supportive big sister-the one who makes you laugh, gives great advice, and reminds you that you've absolutely got this!

Forget bland, cookie-cutter rentals that make you feel like you're living in the waiting room of the DMV. This one-of-a-kind home is bursting with personality, whimsy, cheerful colors, unexpected surprises, and encouraging messages. But behind all that charm is a seriously practical, exceptionally well-equipped home. I've put a ridiculous amount of thought into making your extended stay as comfortable, convenient, and as FUN as possible! I hope you'll enjoy & care for it as much as I do.



Ok, let's knock the essential stuff out of the way, then we'll move on to the more fun things!

•High speed fiber internet WiFi included
•All utilities included
•Lawn care included
•Full sized washer, dryer, and interior laundry room
•Two car attached garage
•Smoke & carbon monoxide detectors
•SUPER convenient location

‍THE KITCHEN: Cook, Bake & Caffeinate!
I designed Ladybug Cottage with extended stays in mind, which means you won't arrive to find four forks, one frying pan, and a coffee maker from 1997.

•Full-size refrigerator, range, oven, microwave & dishwasher
•Air fryer, toaster oven, pressure/multi-cooker, blender & electric mixer
•Pots, pans, bakeware, mixing bowls, cooking utensils & measuring tools
•Everyday dishes, nicer dinnerware, glassware, barware & matching flatware
•Dedicated coffee and tea station with starter supplies
•Plenty of cabinetry and counter space, plus breakfast-bar seating


THE BEDROOMS:
Each bedroom has its own distinctive personality & color palette, comfortable furnishings, and extra bedding.

For my night-shift healthcare professionals, I've specifically considered daytime sleeping! You'll already feel like a bear hibernating in a moody, enchanted forest in the primary bedroom, but I've also included blackout curtains so you can get some much needed rest - even after a 12 hour shift.

On top of that, I've provided extra linens, pillows, and plenty of towels because nobody wants to do laundry every other day!

THE WORKSPACE:
Need to be productive? Enjoy a cheerful, dessert themed, dedicated workspace complete with fast fiber internet, lots of natural light, a fun neon sign to remind you how capable you are, and a large, real wood desk with views of the sunny backyard!


LIVING AND DINING ROOM: 

Kick back and relax on the big sectional that has a chaise the size of a full sized bed (really), stream your favorite shows on the smart TV, or cook up a 3 course meal to enjoy in the formal dining room. Bust out your favorite pose as you take a few selfies with the empowering neon signs and watch all your friends get jealous before dimming the lights to create a cozy ambiance while you curl up with your favorite book and retire from the stresses of the world.


PETS:
Don't you dare think I forgot about them! I allow up to TWO pets because they are family, too! Let's be real - a house isn't a home without them! And yes, I've included some items they might need so you don't have to pack them! They have stainless food & water bowls, a pet mat, doggie door, and there's a fully fenced backyard so your furry sidekicks can enjoy their stay, too! Now, since I'm treating y'all right, y'all gotta do me right, too! I do require you to pick up after your pets, and I've included a sturdy metal pooper scooper to do so!

OUTDOOR LIVING:
Enjoy your morning coffee on the substantially sized covered front porch, take a stroll through the quiet neighborhood, then in the evening savor dining al fresco on your huge, private backyard patio. Lake Hefner is right up the road, and I've even included a complimentary bicycle for exploring the many trails or biking to catch a meal at one of the waterfront restaurants! Enjoy a moment of calm as you watch the sailboats bob up and down as you catch some of Oklahoma's best sunrises & sunsets.


SHOPPING, EATING OUT, AND ESSENTIALS:
Listen, when I say you're close to everything, I'm not kidding! Just one street over, Northwest Expressway is absolutely LOADED with restaurants, coffee shops, shopping, grocery stores, everyday essentials, and corporate offices.

Feeling fancy? The nearby Nichols Hills Plaza and Classen Curve area is full of cute boutiques, unique shops, and fantastic places to eat! You'll find Trader Joe's, Whole Foods, Anthropologie, West Elm, Flower Child, Republic Gastropub, and plenty more. Let's not forget Penn Square Mall and downtown OKC/Bricktown are both just a quick drive away!

A FEW OTHER THOUGHTFUL THINGS:
It's often the smallest conveniences that make the biggest difference during an extended stay. So, I've tried to think of the things you might not even realize you need until you need them!

• First aid kit (hallway bathroom)
• Fire extinguisher (under kitchen sink)
• Starter laundry & dishwasher detergents
• Starter coffee & tea supplies
• Starter shampoo & conditioner
• Starter toothbrush & toothpaste
• Cleaning supplies
• Vacuum, broom & dustpan
• Full-size iron & ironing board
• Extra full sets of linens & towels
• For mobility issues: walk-in shower and just one small step up to the front and garage entrances
• For the last 3 years, I've consistently earned SuperHost status & Premier Host status with VRBO, so you're in good hands!

IN CONCLUSION:
Whether you're here for a travel assignment, remote work, relocation, needing creative inspiration or a fresh start, my goal is simple: make your stay feel less like temporary housing and more like a real home - only more fun - because being away from home doesn't have to be boring :)
