The Not So Tiny Cottage — Gilbert’s Most Beloved Bungalow

Welcome to The Not So Tiny Cottage, a lovingly restored 1930s bungalow nestled in the heart of the Gilbert Heritage District. Our cottage has been a favorite in the neighborhood for over six years—earning a reputation for comfort, charm, and genuine hospitality.

Step inside and experience a unique blend of vintage character and modern convenience. Original details and classic cottage vibes are complemented by high-end fixtures and updated appliances, making your stay better than ever. The bathroom features a spacious, beautiful shower and a one-of-a-kind vintage dresser converted into a sink console with plenty of storage. In the master bedroom, you’ll find a plush queen bed, another vintage dresser, and a wall-to-wall closet for all your things. Just outside, a private outdoor shower—added by popular demand—lets you soak up the Arizona sun, and our guests rave about it all summer long.

The flexible den/office space is perfect for remote work or dining, with a desk (and computer monitor) that easily converts to a table. Extra folding chairs are tucked away in the closet, and a twin daybed makes this space ideal for a third guest or friends traveling together.

Out front, our extra-large covered porch is a guest favorite for morning coffee or sunset wine. Dine al fresco under the vine-covered pergola, surrounded by lush landscaping that creates a true oasis in the heart of town. And yes, your furry friends are welcome—our huge, fenced yard is a paradise for dogs, complete with a doggy door for easy access.

Location is everything, and you won’t find a better spot. We’re just a three-minute stroll from Downtown Gilbert’s best restaurants, shops, and attractions. Enjoy the Saturday Farmer’s Market, catch a show at the Hale Theater, or bring a blanket for Friday Movie in the Park—all just steps from your door. With a large covered porch, two patios, a grill, and a spacious yard, outdoor living is effortless here.

We’ve thought of everything to make your stay comfortable: high-speed internet, smart TVs in every room, a fully stocked kitchen with oils, spices, and a coffee bar (Keurig and drip options), bathroom toiletries, fresh linens and towels, and a brand-new washer/dryer. This is a strict no-smoking property inside and out.

We’ve been welcoming guests to The Not So Tiny Cottage for over six years, and we take pride in being a top-rated, truly local property. Ask us about monthly rates, and please make yourself at home—we can’t wait to host you!
