About this house rental
Welcome to Dragonfly House, located in the heart of Old Town Auburn. Quiet and peaceful, yet so close to Auburn’s amenities you almost won’t believe how close you are to everything. Recently updated, this clean cottage offers two comfortable bedrooms, two updated spacious bathrooms, a fully stocked kitchen, a room to keep your “stuff” out of the way during your stay, a 45” Smart TV in the living room along with games and books.
We offer off street parking with two driveways if you are bringing your own vehicles and/or will be having guests. If you are arriving by airplane, inquire about our pickup fees. We offer rides to and from the airport for an additional $75 each way when we can. You will get a little tour of Auburn before heading to the house if you so desire. We believe in being flexible, so if you need to arrive early or would like a couple extra hours at check-out, please ask. If we can accommodate you, we most certainly will!
When it comes to mealtime, Dragonfly House is so conveniently located, we have found most of our guests choose to go to the Pour Choice (one minute walk) one of Auburn’s premier coffee shops or dine at one of the many restaurants located literally within a 1-2 minute walk from your front door. We offer a variety of suggestions and menus for you to choose from as well. However, you will always find in the fully stocked kitchen, fresh organic eggs, organic cream (upon request), coffee from our local roaster, a variety of teas and, some snacks for when you arrive.
The master bedroom is located in the back of the house. It is peaceful and offers plenty of closet space to hang your clothes. The comfortable queen sized bed has a variety of pillows to rest your head on, extra blankets for the winter and a portable air conditioner for the summer. The second bedroom has a comfy full sized bed w/an armoire for your items.
We offer plenty of books and information on trails and happenings in and around Auburn. Dragonfly House is so walkable you can get to the trails, shop at the Farmers Market, attend events at the fairgrounds, walk to downtown Auburn (5 mins) all without ever getting in your car.
The backyard is private and offers plenty of room to enjoy your morning coffee and listen to the birdsong or sip a drink at the end of a full day. Or you can sit on the front porch and watch the neighbors taking a walk to town, cyclists ride by or tourists wandering around.
We have received perfect scores from every guest giving us the confidence you will say, "I'm so glad we stayed here!".

So thoughtful!
Kristi was a great host from the start. On our arrival, we needed some help getting inside, and Kristi answered her phone right away and patiently provided instructions. Kristi encouraged us to call with any further questions. Inside, the house is warm, colorful and friendly -- full of Kristi's personal touch. Kristi clearly cares about the Dragonfly House and the comfort of her guests. I was delighted to see all the light switches labeled, including the garbage disposal. No need to hear any annoying growl when I'm trying to find a kitchen light switch. Grrrrr! :o
I just kept thinking how thoughtful Kristi has been in setting up the house. There were notes and menus and local guides in the house to assist our stay. The dragonfly theme is charming and all the more of a personal touch from Kristi. The rooms are fully furnished and equipped with plenty of drawers, hangers hooks -- you name it!
In addition to the house, I was amazed by what a great location this is. Just a short walk from a great breakfast place, and other restaurants and shops as well. Lots of great walking from this location!
I want to stay in this house the next time I get a chance!
Thank you for a wonderful stay, Kristi!

Amazingly cute property that’s only a few seconds walk to Old Town Auburn, and yet so quiet you’d never know How close you are. Kristi made sure we enjoyed our stay and was easily available via VRBO chat. Definitely coming back.

Our stay at Kristi’s cottage truly exceeded our expectations. It was the perfect getaway for the weekend. It’s located in a beautiful and historical location within walking distance of restaurants. Kristi was an amazing host. She made our stay in her cottage hospitable. She provided so many goodies and other necessities that can easily be forgotten when traveling. I’m hoping to revisit in the near future.

Cute and very comfortable
We loved our 4 day escape at Kristi’s cottage. It really is in the heart of the old town and very walkable. It is very comfortable and had everything we needed and more. Not only does it have all the kitchen essentials, but Kristi has added lots of tasty treats. So nice to have your own parking spot right outside too. Lots to see and do in the surrounding area. We would definitely stay again.
