About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire apartment to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Safe, Unique, Affordable ~ Solo Retreat Space - Unique Northwest Vacation Rentals

WARM and COZY Guaranteed! If you're looking for a fun, new experience, or just a comfy place to sleep, My Tiny Bird House is the perfect solo getaway. Our guests thoroughly enjoy the hot outdoor shower and the warm and cozy feel of the space. Towels, a robe, and soaps are provided; so just bring your sense of adventure. Avid readers enjoy our unique library and often spend hours in the bunks, just relaxing.

Nestled in a quiet forest, wildlife abounds and the views from the deck are just the thing to melt your cares away. You'll come away inspired AND relaxed.

Maybe this tiny is a bit TOO tiny for you? We also host 2 other tiny house rentals just a peek-a-boo view away from the Bird House. Ask for more information if this interests you.

Human neighbors are friendly, but enjoy the privacy that country life ensures. The numerous animal neighbors are furry, or feathered, and some are approachable; but most are pretty shy. (deer, raccoon, quail, squirrels, skunk, etc...)

Gorgeous location
Gorgeous location, close to town. It was a bit too "tiny house" for me and the outhouse wasn't lit. For the price, I will probably not stay here again.

Peaceful and cozy
It was my first time in a tiny house and I stayed 2 nights while attending my cousins wedding. The outdoor shower with instant hot water was a wonderful way to wake up each morning and the space was so quiet and peaceful. Now I want to build my own tiny house!

Perfectly magical
I love this place! The tiny home and beautiful surroundings had everything I was hoping for and more. I worked remote and had my dog with me during my stay. It was a peaceful, comfortable, and a beautiful atmosphere. Thank you for making this place and for being such a kind and helpful host during my stay.

Cute and comfy
The property was super cute and quiet. Just the right place for relaxation. I loved how it was so quiet and I enjoyed sitting out on the porch and sipped on my coffee. Would definitely book again. Thanks!!!

Nestled in Sherwood Forest, There is a Tiny Village
I stayed in the tiniest of the tiny, The Birdhouse. I was able to work in the mornings at the tiny business center and explore wine country with friends also staying in the village in the afternoons. Smart design, soothing decore, comfy loft bed and good heat and ventilation. The highlight was taking a hot shower while looking out over the tree tops. Just steps from the “beer library” and from the composting toilet (smells only of sawdust). I’ll be back!

Sherwood Tiny Birdhouse
Wow! What a great spot where comfort and rustic come together. I love this tiny house. It has everything I needed and nothing I didn’t need. Tucked into the trees, quiet, a sweet spot to relax. Michelle is an incredible host, right there when I needed her. I’ll be back!
