The Gate House in Edmond, Oklahoma - Luxury living, fine dining, shopping, and entertainment!
Tucked away in nature, our curated cabin in Edmond, OK offers serene views, stunning sunrises, and wildlife at your doorstep. Escape the city while enjoying the convenience of being minutes from Edmond's dining, art, and amenities. Experience tranquility in a space that blends seclusion with comfort. To maintain high hospitality standards, ID verification and a signed guest agreement via Hostfully are required. Thank you for joining a community that values beauty, heritage, and guest safety.
The owners live on property and are available in emergencies. If you need to reach us, we are available via text. We live on 10 acres and that leads to having various projects going on at any given time. The most common maintenance that you could hear or see would be us trimming trees, mowing the yards, cleaning the pond, and tending to our garden. If we have time, we are happy to interact, but we also know some people just need respite and we respect this desire for privacy.
Mountain View Park Neighborhood: This neighborhood is historic and on private roads. We boast towering cedar and oak trees, abundant wildlife, and great walking trails. It's the only neighborhood with wooded acreage 1 mile from the highway i-35 and so close to all the amenities in town and the lake. There is simply no other neighborhood of its kind in all of Edmond. Be surrounded by nature, yet right next to the City. We also provide all the information on the history of the historic neighborhood in our guestbook.
We are 1 mile from the highway, 1 mile from Lake Arcadia boat ramps and beaches, 3 miles from University of Central Oklahoma, 20 minutes from downtown OKC, 10 minutes from downtown Edmond, and close to all the eateries, movie theaters, bowling, bakeries, grocery stores, etc.
You will have access to the entire house minus the cleaning closet. You will also have access to our Koi pond, kids playhouse and the surrounding area of the house. 4 parking spots within our gates are available to you.
Downstairs: The cabin has a fully equipped kitchen so you can cook any meal. There is a large island for prepping meals. A bar for eating, 2 living areas, 1 dining table for four, 1 fireplace, and a unique Japanese soaking tub are all accessible downstairs. Upstairs: a spiral staircase leads to an open loft with 1 king and 1 queen. It has a private bathroom and shower. Outside: 1 table that seats 4 is located on the front porch, one covered outdoor living area on the back porch and one charcoal grill.
We are 25 minutes from Will Rogers International Airport and 1 mile from Lake Arcadia. We have free parking for 4 cars and are 3 minutes from I-35. We are available to make recommendations for any activities you may be interested in doing. We have created a guidebook for you to check out before and during your stay. We also have a book of favorite restaurants, favorite u-pick farms, and local entertainment ideas in our guidebook at the house. I am also available via the Messaging center to curate your best Oklahoma vacation, anniversary experience, or family experience.
The Gate House was built in 1940's and has been remodeled with unique features, all while maintaining its historic charm. From the native cedar spiral staircase, to the peaceful outdoor space, to the one of a kind hospitality- it is the ONLY Cabin of its kind in OKC/Edmond/Central Oklahoma.
A few things to note about our Cabin:
*The loft is open. We have two beds in the loft that are on opposite ends of the loft. The king size bed does have a wall and door for privacy. The Loft spans the entire length of the house, the queen bed is open in the loft area and the king bed has a door that can be locked. The beds are not side by side; they are in separate rooms. If you are traveling with another couple, please note that the queen bed is open in the loft, the king bed is in a room with a door that can be closed.
*There is a spiral staircase built out of all native cedar lumber taken from the property. The staircase leads to the open loft and requires coordination and strength to carry luggage up the stairs. All rooms are upstairs, so it is imperative for guests to be able to navigate a spiral staircase.
*We also have a Japanese soaking tub in the downstairs bathroom. This bathtub is not a typical bathtub. It requires stepping up two steps and then stepping down into the tub. It is only meant for soaking and not meant for showering. And again, it could be harder to enjoy if you struggle with walking up or down steps. This is not the only bathroom, we also have a bathroom upstairs with a shower.

Amazing
We arrived through a lovely forested road through an exclusive stoned entrance into fairytale gardens. we saw the stone cabin and immediately fell in love with the place it was better than the pictures! There were secluded nooks to sit, a small fish pond with a small waterfall we could hear the birds chirping and at times tje owls hooting and at one time we heard turkeys The inside was cozy and inviting it was tastefully decorated. We'd sit at the back porch in the early evenings and then after dinner in the living room in front of the fireplace watching the glow of the fire in the fireplace as evening fell we would see a deer or two. We'd watch movies and then fall asleep in the super comfortable befs th

Girls Trip at the Gate House
My sister, mom and I all really enjoyed our stay at the Gate House! Brandy was so welcoming and answered all of our questions in a timely manner. The house was gorgeously decorated with the most comfortable beds and pillows. We loved having a cocktail on the back patio in the evenings and listening to the turkeys gobble. We will definitely be back!

Beautiful, Unique, and Peaceful Getaway
**Beautiful, Unique, and Peaceful Getaway** I really enjoyed my stay at Gate House! The furniture is stunning—the owner has great taste, and the decor is both beautiful and unique. I left feeling inspired to bring a similar style into my own home. The peaceful pond and waterfall added to the relaxing atmosphere, and the rooms were incredibly comfortable to hang out in. The bedding was also fantastic—very cozy and inviting. Despite being conveniently close to the highway, the property feels wonderfully removed from the city. While I did hear a car or motorcycle rev a couple of times when outside, there was no road noise inside. The kitchen is fully stocked with dishes (even festive Christmas ones for December stays!), but be sure to bring your own spices and oils. The handcrafted stairs are gorgeous, though they may be a challenge for those unsure on their feet, as there is also a large step in the bathroom. It wasn’t an issue for me, but something to note. The TV has Netflix access, which was a nice touch for relaxing in the evenings. Overall, this was a fantastic stay, and I would love to return!

Quiet Unique and Close to everything
We absolutely loved this cottage and all the amenities. The home and the kitchen are so well appointed with all the supplies you need. The spiral staircase is so beautiful and is also the only way to access the two bedrooms.Although the location is tucked away and surrounded by trees, you are also close to restaurants, stores, and a beautiful lake. We would highly recommend this place for a romantic getaway and we plan to do just that again.

Cute rustic country stay
I loved the rock home and staircase. I do wish the dishes had been cleaner upon my arrival since I had to wash all dishes I needed. The games are not all there and I heard, "I'm bored of Guess Who!" Be wary of bugs like all county locations, wasps hung out in kids playhouse. The twenty degree difference in upstairs and down is a real thing and keep your temp upstairs in mind when adjusting. Over all that it is a beautiful home, perfect location in the country but close enough to everything city and entertainment. I would stay again and even have to give thanks to Brandy helping find a wood source for the fire place!

Mesmerizing
Driving into a breathtaking view of property and house. The homes decor matched its surroundings and made you feel cozy and welcomed.
We spent a long weekend visiting family and going to the OSU/ASU game. DEVILS WIN! The weather was even more exciting having it rain all day with thunder, lightning and tornado warnings 2 nights in a row. (Yes, Host sent us warning.)
You can walk the property and see the pond and wildlife all over. Pretty impressive view. It’s a home you can stay and use the amenities year round. Beautiful.

Beautiful cottage vibes
Most incredible stay - property was quiet and well decorated. Property manager was incredible, would stay again. Thank you so much for the enjoyable time.
The cabin was close to a town with grocery and restaurants, as well as the interstate. I didn’t hear any interstate noise, and the cabin was in a safe property area behind a gate and surrounded by trees. All the basic things for cooking, coffee, internet, and comfortable beds were there. The hosts were very helpful and responsive. Check in and out was simple. I would highly recommend!

Best home away from home ever!
We were very happy with the property. Right away you could tell that they take great pride in it! Everything was spotless and I am very picky about cleanliness. I even felt comfortable enough to sleep in the bed without my own pillowcase and blanket that I always bring! It was always so quiet and peaceful, we slept wonderfully! The property is beautiful and well kept. We saw fireflies at night and several deer in the mornings and they would stay awhile because it was so quiet! We stayed for 2 weeks and there was never a problem. Every nook and cranny was clean! We found nothing our entire stay to complain about. It was decorated so cute, it felt just like home. The kitchen supplies were perfect. We had all the basics and real dishes and silverware! We were even able to host a few family members for brunch and did not need anything but food. There were several little things that made our stay so nice. There was a bag of coffee from a local roaster we absolutely enjoyed! There was a very nice selection of tea bags to enjoy as well. There were fans in most rooms for comfort, there were ice packs available to use in the freezer, foil and ziploc bags, cute little eye masks for a restful sleep, and much more. The host was very easy to communicate with. We have stayed many places in our travels and this property, by far, was above and beyond! We will definitely stay here again when we return!
