A beautiful deck to watch the sunset, a cute kitchen with everything you need, and a bohemian design overall that was very well curated. It was a wonderful place to stay during my time in Fairfield — I was able to relax in comfort, undisturbed.

Quiet block near Lake Pleasant, where I like to walk. Highly recommend! "

Our cozy open-concept apartment is accessible through two doors: one leading directly from the laundromat and the other from the backside. For your convenience, there’s a private parking area at the back.

Outside, you'll find a large picnic table perfect for relaxing and enjoying your meals. We also provide a Camp Chef griddle, ideal for whipping up delicious dishes and making the most of your outdoor dining experience.

We hope these amenities enhance your stay and provide a comfortable, enjoyable retreat.

Other things to note
THE TINY NEST is located at the back of the laundromat; we’ve made every effort to soundproof the space. Although minimal noise occasionally occurs, we found it quite manageable during our tester weekend stay. We want to ensure our guests know this possibility for a comfortable experience.

THE TINY NEST is your ideal base for exploring the area. Enjoy your stay!

Other things to note
This property is out of town on a gravel road. In the winter time all wheel drive or 4x4 would be ideal if there’s snow. We do not supply a washer & dryer as of now, there is a laundromat in town.

There is really good fishing on the river from the bank as long as the water levels are up high enough. When the water gets low fishing can be tough with the steeper bank and rip rap on the bank. So it all depends on water levels for fishing.


We are located on private property but do have a few neighboring cabins that are also located down there. Everyone is super friendly in our little area though!

We also have a fire pit that you are welcome to use. We don’t supply any firewood but they do it sell it in town and Boyd’s and Circle B as long as there not sold out. Your also more than welcome to bring your own.
