It may be hard to believe, but Twilight is celebrating its 20th anniversary (I know, I feel old), and with this birthday comes the chance to revisit some of the houses that made the film so successful. One of which is the iconic Swan house, the fictional home of Bella and Charlie, located in Forks, Washington. In reality, however, it's found in St. Helens, Oregon, and is a vacation home listed on Airbnb.
The listing offers the chance to live like Bella (Kristen Stewart) for a few nights and experience the setting responsible for many of the film's key scenes for yourself, from the green kitchen to Bella's bohemian bedroom.
Fans may already be aware that it's the scene of many of Bella’s first conversations with Edward Cullen (Robert Pattinson) and the backdrop of many moments that shaped the series’ romance, but now, in 2025, it can serve as the setting of your own story.
The home is a real time capsule of the early 2000s, when the films first gained global popularity. Its white-painted façade is instantly recognizable to anyone who has ever enjoyed the franchise, but inside, things are equally unchanged.
It's said to be larger than you might expect from the film, but everything else is unsurprising. The décor resembles that of the film, including Bella’s vintage headboard and footboard, as well as her well-known purple floral bedspread. Although the bedspread is no longer in use (due to its fragility), it remains on display inside, along with the wall art featured in the movie.

Directly inspired by Bella's bedding, these pillows are made of high-quality cotton linen fabric, which is comfortable, durable and beautiful in texture. They feature a hidden zipper closure that blends in with the pattern for an elegant look and are easy to insert and remove to minimize wear and tear.
This piece features a classic, traditional design that reflects the sophistication of European styling. Its generous scale and intricate details, including scrolled metal accents, make it a statement piece in any bedroom.
The CozyChic Throw comes in a series of colors (I have the Dove Gray tone), but they're all as soft as one another. The brand's unique fabrication, made from 100% polyester, promises warmth and coziness in the bedroom. Plus, it's machine washable, so you don't need to worry about spills.
Guests can also walk down the driveway where Bella’s red pickup truck was parked, look out the windows toward the front and back yards reminiscent of scenes from New Moon, or view the distinctive green-tiled kitchen that appears throughout the films.
As mentioned, the house isn’t in Forks, as the movies would have you believe. It’s located in St. Helens, Oregon, approximately 230 miles south of its fictional zip code, and about 30 miles north of Portland. Its location serves as a convenient stop on a Twilight-themed trip along the Pacific Coast, which is something you can plan your stay around.
Unlike Forks, which is famously cloudy in the film. St. Helens receives less rainfall and has slightly warmer temperatures, making it easier to explore the surrounding area. In addition to Twilight-related attractions, you’re also a short hop from the attractions of Vancouver, Washington, and the Columbia River.
When it comes to the logistics, it may come as no surprise that reservations for this home are in high demand and are currently fully booked, especially as we celebrate the franchise's 20th birthday year. However, availability may open up occasionally, so it’s recommended to check the listing periodically.
The property typically requires a two-night minimum stay, though on rare occasions, one-night bookings are accepted. If you're a Twilight enthusiast, this could be one of the most memorable experiences you can enjoy, so keep checking back to secure something special.
