Step into the Twilight universe at the real-life house in Forks, WA that inspired Bella Swan’s home in the books. Officially recognized by the town of Forks as The Swan House since 2006, this lovingly restored 1905 farmhouse has 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, and all the cozy charm of Bella’s world - just minutes from Forks High, La Push Beach, and the misty forests that brought the saga to life.
"In the state of Washington, under a near constant cover of clouds and rain, there is a small town named Forks. Population: 3,120 people.” – Bella Swan, Twilight
…And in that very town sits the house that inspired Stephenie Meyer’s vision of Bella’s home. Honored by the town of Forks as the official Swan House since 2006, it’s now under the new ownership and care of a Twilight superfan and BNB Superhost - thoughtfully restored with book-accurate details, subtle film nods, and plenty of cozy charm.
Set on a quiet street surrounded by towering evergreens, the Swan House is close to iconic locations like Forks High and La Push, and just a scenic drive from Port Angeles, where you can relive the ultimate first date with a dramatic stare across a plate of mushroom ravioli at Bella Italia.
The house features 3 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, and a bonus den - plenty of space for your Twilight-inspired escape.
Downstairs, you’ll find a fully equipped kitchen, dining room, full bathroom, and a cozy living room with a flatscreen TV and DVD player (yes, the entire Twilight saga is here on disc for your viewing pleasure).
Sleeping arrangements on the main floor include:
• The Jacob/Quileute Guest Room – Inspired by La Push and Jacob Black, this room features earthy tones, cultural touches, and a queen-size bed.
• The “Wolf” Den – Tucked just off the kitchen, the bonus den has a twin trundle bed that sleeps two - perfect for little wolves in training or extra guests tagging along for the saga.
Upstairs, you’ll find a second full bathroom and two more themed bedrooms:
• Bella ’s Room – Reimagined with her signature purple bedding, warm lighting, familiar artwork, a cozy king-size bed, and of course…the dreamcatcher from Jacob.
• Charlie’s Room – A peaceful retreat with a comfy queen-size bed and subtle nods to Forks’ favorite flannel-wearing dad.
The house is being lovingly updated in stages to reflect even more Twilight-accurate details - and early guests get a front-row seat to the transformation. Follow along on social media @bellaswanhouse for sneak peeks, behind-the-scenes updates, and fan polls to help shape the finishing touches.
Whether you’re Team Edward, Team Jacob, here for the moody PNW vibes, or heading to explore the Olympic National Park, this is your chance to stay in a true piece of Twilight history.
Please note: The Swan House is a popular tourist stop for visiting fans and included on the Twilight tour maps. You may see people taking photos from the street or sidewalk, but the home and yard are private. Only booked guests are permitted on the property.
