If you're a traveling nurse heading to Spokane for a contract, finding the right place to live can be just as stressful as starting a new assignment. Hotels are impersonal. Apartments require long leases. And most short-term rentals aren't set up for stays longer than a week or two.
Manito Bungalow is different. We offer mid-term rentals of up to 6 months during the winter season, specifically designed for healthcare professionals, traveling nurses, and anyone who needs a real home — not just a place to sleep — while they're working in Spokane.

Why Manito Bungalow Makes Sense
Fully Furnished & Move-In Ready
You won't need to buy a single thing. The bungalow comes with a full kitchen (stocked with cookware, dishes, and utensils), washer and dryer, comfortable beds for up to 10 guests, high-speed WiFi, and a dedicated workspace. Just bring your scrubs and your suitcase.
A Real Neighborhood
You're not in a sterile corporate complex. You're on a tree-lined street in Spokane's beloved South Hill neighborhood, one block from Manito Park. Walk to coffee shops, restaurants on Grand Boulevard, and the Perry District. This is what coming home after a 12-hour shift should feel like.
Pet-Friendly
We know many traveling nurses bring their pets. Manito Bungalow is pet-friendly, and Manito Park — right next door — is the perfect place for daily walks.
Available Up to 6 Months (Winter Season)
Our mid-term rental option is available during the winter months, which is typically when Spokane hospitals need the most travel nurse support. Contact us directly for winter availability and mid-term pricing.
What Spokane Offers After Your Shift
Spokane is an incredible place to live, even temporarily. You'll have access to world-class hiking, a thriving brewery scene, great restaurants within walking distance, and a genuine sense of community. Many of our traveling nurse guests tell us they didn't expect to fall in love with Spokane — but they did.
