Walla Walla Wine Country Home, Converted Game Room, Sleeps 8, Dogs Welcome

THE SPACE
Some trips are built around a destination. This one is built around a home.
College Place sits at the edge of Washington wine country, five minutes from some of the valley's best tasting rooms and fifteen minutes from over a hundred producers pouring in downtown Walla Walla. But once your group finds this place, with the game room lit up, the chandelier glowing over the dining table, and the grill going in the backyard, the itinerary has a way of loosening up. That is not a complaint. That is the point.

This is a three-bedroom, two-bathroom home that sleeps eight comfortably, with a fully converted garage game room, a fenced backyard, a dining room that was designed for long dinners, and a kitchen that can actually feed a group. Dogs are welcome. The whole property is yours.

LIVING ROOM
Every group trip needs a room where everyone gravitates back to. This is that room.
A large flat-screen TV faces a sectional that fits the whole group without anyone getting squeezed into a corner. The layout is easy and open, the kind of room that works for a loud first night in just as well as a quiet final morning with coffee. The patio slider connects directly to the backyard, so the inside and outside of this house feel like one continuous space when the weather cooperates.

Room to spread out without losing the group feeling

KITCHEN AND DINING
The kitchen is built for the group that actually wants to cook, and the dining room was designed for the group that wants to make dinner last.
Start in the kitchen. Full-size refrigerator, electric range, dishwasher, and a deep prep island with bar stools for the people who want to help but mostly want to watch. The Keurig coffee station is ready before anyone has to ask. There is counter space, there is storage, and there is enough room for two people to work side by side without getting in each other's way. Feeding eight does not require a reservation here.
Then walk into the dining room. A statement crystal chandelier hangs over a white farmhouse table ringed by tufted velvet wingback chairs, and the effect is immediate. This is not a folding table in a rental kitchen. This is a room that was put together with intention, and it shows.

This is where the good bottles get opened. The ones you saved for the last night, or the ones the winery talked you into that afternoon. Two hours past dessert is not unusual here.

Bedrooms
Three bedrooms that were set up to feel like an actual retreat, not an afterthought.
Bedroom 1, the primary suite, leads with a wood-framed headboard, layered bedding, and warm lamp lighting that takes the edge off after a long day. Room to unpack for a week if the trip calls for it.

Bedrooms 2 and 3 follow the same standard. Coordinated linens, proper reading lamps, and enough floor space to set bags down and actually move around. Both rooms are dressed and ready, and neither one feels like it was furnished last.

In-unit washer and dryer in a dedicated laundry room, so a four-night trip stays as fresh as a two-night one

THE GAME ROOM
This is the part of the listing that guests come back to mention in their reviews.
The two-car garage has been fully converted into a private entertainment lounge, and it does not feel like a garage anymore. Epoxy floors, real lighting, and a layout that was planned for a group that wants to stay up a little later than they intended.
The ESPN dual-arcade basketball shooter is the centerpiece, and it draws people in every time. Cornhole boards for when the competition needs to move. A leather reclining sofa for the people keeping score and commentary. A wine barrel bar table with bar stools for the post-game drinks. The room works for a rainy afternoon between wineries just as well as the final night of the trip when no one wants the weekend to end.

BACKYARD AND OUTDOOR SPACES
Step out the back door and the yard is entirely yours.
A concrete patio runs along the back of the house with a full outdoor dining set, umbrella shade, and a gas grill ready to use year-round. String lights run overhead. The yard is fenced, which means dogs can run and kids can roam without anyone chasing them. The space is private, quiet, and completely separated from the street.

LOCATION
Walla Walla is one of the most respected wine regions in the country, and College Place puts you inside it without the downtown premium.
Downtown Walla Walla tasting rooms are about ten minutes away, with over a hundred producers pouring in a walkable district that takes more than one trip to cover properly. The Rocks District, one of the valley's most celebrated AVAs for its ancient cobblestone soils, is even closer. Whether your group is building a full tasting itinerary or leaving room to wander, the valley has more than enough to fill the days.

Wineries nearby:
Downtown Walla Walla tasting rooms, about 10 minutes, 100-plus producers in a walkable district
Pepper Bridge Winery, about 15 minutes, one of the valley's flagship estate producers
Amavi Cellars, about 15 minutes, Pepper Bridge's sister winery devoted to single-vineyard wines
Seven Hills Winery and dozens more within a short drive

Restaurants worth knowing:
The Patisserie, French pastries and espresso, the right way to start a wine country morning
Rogers Bakery, legendary maple bars, apple fritters, and fresh donuts since before the valley was famous
The Happy Wanderer, handmade tortillas and the best salsa bar in the valley
Salted Mill, local ingredients, relaxed atmosphere, the kind of dinner that does not need a special occasion
Hop Thief Taphouse and Kitchen, local beers, wines, and cocktails for the night the group wants something low-key

Recreation and attractions:
Fort Walla Walla Museum, about 10 minutes, 700-acre preserve with trails, history, and disc golf
Pioneer Park, about 10 minutes, shaded trails and picnic areas
Bennington Lake Recreation Area, about 20 minutes, fishing, hiking, and wildlife
Wine Valley Golf Club, about 20 minutes, one of the best public courses in Eastern Washington
Walla Walla University, about 5 minutes
Whitman College, about 10 minutes

Getting here: Walla Walla Regional Airport (ALW) is about 15 minutes away with daily service from Seattle and Portland. Rideshare is limited throughout the valley, so a rental car is strongly recommended for making the most of the wine trail and surrounding area.
Parking: Two free off-street driveway spots are included.

THIS HOME IS PERFECT FOR
Groups of friends planning a wine country weekend with a home base worth coming back to
Multigenerational family gatherings that need real bedrooms, a real kitchen, and space for everyone
Celebration trips including birthdays, bachelorette weekends, anniversaries, and milestone reunions
Families with dogs who want a fenced yard, no size restrictions, and room to actually relax
Sports fans and game night groups who want more than a hotel common area
Graduation weekends at Walla Walla University or Whitman College

Couples or smaller groups who want a full home with no shared walls and no neighbors overhead

GOOD TO KNOW
All guests are asked to complete a short rental agreement prior to arrival confirming acceptance of the house rules. This takes just a few minutes and is handled through a secure third-party system. We do not collect or handle any sensitive information directly.
To protect all guests and the integrity of the booking, we reserve the right to request additional identity verification when we feel it is appropriate. Verification is completed through the same secure third-party platform and may include two-factor authentication to confirm identity. The process is straightforward and your information is never handled by us personally. Travel insurance is recommended for all stays, particularly for larger group bookings. VRBO offers travel insurance as well as it is offered inside our Hospitable system, inside the guest portal, when you sign the rental agreement.
