Vacation Rental Description

This 1907 heritage house gem has been lovingly restored by its previous architect owner to suit modern standards, while the rare old beautiful character has been carefully preserved. There are two private but joinable suites: 
 
COTTONWOOD CROWN is ideal and economical for families or small groups and offers 2 floors and 1100 sq ft of space. There are flexible sleeping arrangements for up to 8, in 4 beds between the 2 bedrooms and the living room. The master bedroom is spacious and bright with high ceilings and a south facing window.

The bathroom is spacious and charming with a shower and roomy clawfoot tub 
overlooking the garden. Fresh towels are provided.

available. 
 
Cottonwood Gardens is located in Strathcona which is Vancouver's oldest residential 
neighborhood. This amazing and unique neighborhood has a sense of community 
that can't always be found even in a small town. An amazing example of this is 
that the neighborhood was earmarked for demolition in the early 1950s as part of 
an urban renewal program. Strathcona would have been transformed into blocks 
of identical apartment buildings, but development was stopped by opposition 
from the community. Thanks to the strength of the community and their intense 
love for their neighborhood, Strathcona is still filled with late 19th and early 20th 
century architecture which is a relative rarity in Vancouver. Walking through the 
neighborhood, you will see that many houses in Strathcona are designated heritage 
houses, and Cottonwood Gardens is no exception. 
 
We are very fortunate to have all the best areas of Vancouver within walking 
distance, while still being hidden away in the quaint historic neighborhood of 
Strathcona. Cottonwood is just minutes from Chinatown, Commercial Drive, Main Street, and 
Downtown Vancouver. From cafés, sports and entertainment, to beaches and 
forests; it is all a walk away!

Wonderful access to everything the city of Vancouver has to offer and only a day trip away from many amazing wilderness adventures (ie. Whistler). Very close to Playland Amusement Park and within walking distance to most everything downtown has to offer. The bike path outside your doorstep leads you to Downtown Vancouver (2km away) around False Creek and English Bay (3km) to the golden beaches and huge, forested area of Stanley Park (5km), all of which are surrounded by the magnificent Rocky Mountains. The neighborhood is VERY family friendly and includes several local parks. Commercial drive, which is 15 minute walk east is loaded with good organics shops, amazing restaurants, and many cultural venues. I could go on and on! Really, the location could not be more ideal for a traveler.

“It’s sometimes not easy to find a place that you can quickly call “home” when you are thousands of miles away from your home… But this time we’ve found such a place: your house, dear Camille and Alex, with Cottonwood Crown apartment.
There was nothing we really missed and the beds were so good, we slept like in heaven.
The fact that one of the most wonderful cities in the world is just a stone’s throw away made our stay even better. Vancouver offers such a variety of attractions we couldn’t decide which one we preferred: was it the awesome “skyscapery” downtown or busy “shippery” harbour bay or peaceful “flowery” parks and mountains…
We’ll never forget Vancouver, this house and you, Camille & Alex.
Thank you and all the best.
