Historic 1910 Bungalow • Carriage House • 1 Block to Wine & Dine • Pet Friendly

Step into this beautifully restored 1910 historic bungalow with a charming carriage house, nestled in one of McMinnville’s most desirable neighborhoods—just one block from premier wine tasting, chef-driven restaurants, boutique shops, and year-round festivals. This walkable Wine Country retreat blends original character with modern comfort in all the right ways.

Inside, you’ll find original hardwood floors, wood built-ins, high ceilings, and bright, airy spaces that showcase the home’s turn-of-the-century charm. The remodeled kitchen is fully equipped and stocked with all the cooking essentials you'll need to prepare your gourmet meals or grill. Central heating and cooling, along with an electric fireplace set in its original stone hearth, provide year-round comfort and ambiance.

The thoughtful layout provides privacy for every guest. On one side of the home, the primary bedroom offers a comfortable king bed with crisp linens and a small full ensuite bath. On the opposite side, the second spacious bedroom features a plush queen bed with the hallway full bath conveniently located next to it—ideal for couples, friends, or families.

The carriage house expands your living and dining options when you roll open the original roll door, which opens the space to the fully fenced yard, creating a seamless blend of indoor and outdoor living. Twinkle lights, rustic finishes, and a cozy indoor dining area create the perfect setting for year-round, relaxed meals. Just outside the carriage house, you’ll find the outdoor grill, conveniently positioned for easy access while still enjoying the character of the space.

Outdoors, enjoy inviting lounge chairs, seating areas, soft lighting, and the privacy of the fenced yard—perfect for unwinding after a day of exploring. This home is dog-friendly, making it easy to bring your four-legged companion.

Located steps from downtown McMinnville and minutes from Wine Country’s most charming small towns, you’ll be ideally situated to explore the countryside, Carlton, Dundee, Dayton, Newberg, and even take a day trip to the Oregon Coast. Traveling with a larger group?

Check out the Wine Country Farmhouse and 1939 Vintage House, located just blocks away.

Adorable restored historic house right in downtown, so easy to walk everywhere: farmer's market, coffee, wine tasting, shopping and more! The neighborhood is also filled with lots of historic homes, really charming. The converted garage was really cute and a nice place to sit while having dinner, our dog loved the fenced in yard too.

This was our 2nd time staying at Cowl's Bungalow. My husband and I traveled with my Dad this time. We love the large covered porch and that we can easily walk 2 blocks to the main street with shops, grocery and restaurants. The kitchen is well stocked with nice quality pans and fresh olive oil. Coffee beans/grinder are provided. We especially appreciated the AC given we were there on a 100 degree weekend. Would return again!

Wine tasting in McMinnville

The house was terrific, spotlessly clean, comfortable and just a few blocks from great restaurants, wine cellars and stores in downtown McMinnville. The kitchen appeared to be well supplied although we didn't use it because of all the fabulous restaurants close by.

Location! Location! Location!

Great place to stay close to 3rd St in McMinnville. After a day of wine tasting we loved being able to walk to dinner and more tasting rooms. Unfortunately, the weather kept us from enjoying the outdoor space so we’ll have to come back and hope the weather cooperates. One thing to note is the very tiny and not so private bathroom in the primary bedroom, which I didn’t realize but wouldn’t keep us from returning. Also, only Folgers was provided for the coffee maker so you may want to bring your own. I do highly recommend staying here.

What a great home! We loved the layout, the decor, convenience to everything, and it was spotless! The home was walking distance to shops, restaurants and wine tastings. Communication with Anita was excellent and everything went so smoothly. This was an annual girls trip with my friend from Portland. We would go back in a heart beat.

Picture Perfect

This house was the absolute perfect home base for our visit to Oregon wine country. The house itself is beautifully appointed. Very comfortable, all the ammenities you could need, and well decorated. The bedrooms, living spaces, and outdoor spaces were all well-proportined and gave us ample room to strech out and enjoy our stay. The location was also terrific. Two short blocks from the main street in town that is lined with shops and restaurants. And only 15-20 minute drive to prime winery areas. We would enjoy our coffee and breakfast in the morning, walk our dog around the charming neighbourhood and then walk to a local place for a light lunch before heading out to the wineries. We would visit 2 or 3 and be home in time for a nap before dinner which again, we could walk to easily. A perfect getaway. Many thanks to our attentive and professional host. She could give a master course in designing, equipping and managing home rentals!

Great bungalow in the Mac

This spot is great if you want an easy walk into town--literally a two minute walk to Third street. Our favorite spots were Harvest Fresh Grocery (great for food and wine selections, as well as premade meals), La Rambla, and the Cellar at Okta. It's a dog friendly house, which was perfect for us. Out pups were very happy to hang out in the fenced backyard, taking advantage of the cool floors in the carriage house. Super comfy beds, well-equipped kitchen, AC, and all the amenities you'd expect. Would definitely stay here again!
