Pretty much as advertised. There are two baths and I think the listing only said one. Clean and comfortable with plenty of sitting areas. Near highway and not greatest for walking into town, but near some nice trails.
It was a five minute drive to the University, and being next to the I-5 was really handy. We didn't hear the traffic from the I-5 inside the house. We will definitely book this house again next time we're in Eugene.
The house is in a peaceful wooded part of town close enough to the campus for walking but away from the craziness. Well equipped kitchen, BBQ grill, a patio and a deck for those that want to hang out at the house. Very comfortable. Owners answered questions promptly.
The property is in an old neighborhood and the highway noise is so deafening that you canât hear to talk on the deck outside. The outside areas, all of them, are filthy dirty including the grilling area which you would have to bushwhack your way through the trees and spiders to utilize. The inside was passibly clean but no attention to the ample cobwebs and dust. The kitchen is not well appointed at all and with all of the coffe stuff there you would think they would have a normal coffee maker and a grinder which they do not. Would never go back and when we complained about the deck etc they said it was power washed in the spring⊠not true in a million years. Cannot recommend this property.
For having clean in the description of the property, it should not have spider webs and cobwebs in every room. Lights were dim, some didn't work at all and the switches are a little confusing. Host showed up and entered the property without notifying me prior to his arrival. There is no garage, and the carport mentioned is for a small sedan. Photos are years old, should be updated - even of the hosts. The vines have overgrown the chairs outside and we spent no time on the deck due to the amount of webs engulfing the railing and chairs. Ended up leaving and getting a hotel - Eugene and Oregon are very high in crime rates, lots of people on the streets. Wouldn't stay in Oregon again unless I had to but also wouldn't stay anywhere but a hotel.
The hosts were incredibly kind. The house was very spacious with a great deck and cool skylights. But the location is a little odd and not walkable to campus or anything at all.
This was a great spot for our family. The kitchen is well appointed, and the bathrooms too. The living room is light & bright - a great hangout spot. Weâd definitely stay here again.
Staying in this large home was so cozy. Wonderful furniture, many amenities, large well equiped kitchen and a quiet neighborhood. We connected with family and we all enjoyed this comfy home.
We enjoyed our stay! We were in Eugene to visit the University of Oregon. This house was in a great location, we were 5-10 minutes away from everything we wanted to see. Thanks for a great visit!
Well my son competed in the triple jump and the long jump at the state meet. I flew my son up from college in California and it was just great. The proximity to Hayward couldn't have been better. Happy to report my son took 3rd in the Triple Jump and 2nd in the long jump. Great time.
This home was perfect as a jumping off point for touring the university and surrounding area for my daughters and I. Just a short driving distance away and close to the freeway.
We loved everything. The house is clean, quiet, and has a unique charm, with modern convenience. The owners obviously take pride in their home and take great care of it. The wooded setting, off the beaten path, but close to town, was a huge plus. 10 out of 10, and would stay here every time we have the opportunity to visit the Eugene area. We only hope that it is available. Thank you so much.
We enjoyed our stay in this lovely home in a nice, quiet neighborhood in the forested foothills. Itâs a 15 minute walk to the market and another 15 minutes to Hayward Field. The heart of town is too far to walk to, so a car or ride share is necessary. The beds are super comfortable and the showers strong with plenty of hot water. Fully supplied tableware and cookware, but youâll need your own ground coffee and food.
The outside deck was filthy and didn't look like it had been swept in weeks. The shower in the second bathroom leaked and the coffee pot didn't work properly. The beds were comfortable. I would not stay here again.
Having personally owned older homes and knowing there are quirks with every home, this home needs some attention to detail. The beds were comfortable. The water was hot for showers and the towels were fluffy and soft. The living room was cozy with many sitting areas. With that said, the owners need to pay attention to some important details. The second bedroom does not have a heat vent. Although there is an electric radiant heat source to use in that room, it should not be used on carpet. We were greeted with the invoice from the cleaning service with an errant sock on top on the dining room table. There was outdoor debris on the indoor carpet that leads to the outdoor deck (and the cleaning service had just been there). The kitchen should always come equipped with a new sponge for each renter and all kitchen and bath soaps should always be refilled. The refrigerator sounded like it was going to expire at any time. There are noticeable areas of the kitchen and laundry area that need to be cleaned and organized. Under the kitchen sink, the floor space between the refrigerator and counter, the washer needs to be cleaned, the "broom" closet area of the laundry just needs a wall mounted organizer instead of everything thrown in the corner next to the washer. These are details that make a difference and just to be clear, these were not searched out. The location was perfect for our needs.
We only stayed for a weekend. We were in town for a taekwondo tournament. This house was perfect for our needs. I loved the old homey feel of this house. Was in a very quiet neighborhood. Easy access to the freeway. Beds were comfy. Was actually really well stocked for a little house. Loved the books and games. There were few touches that could move this up to 5 stars. Deck could be swept and cleaner, some walls definitely need to be cleaned or a fresh coat of paint. Cleaning service needs to make sure thereâs dish soap and a few trash cans didnât have bags in them. But overall we enjoyed our stay and recommend this rental. I would stay here again if we come back to this area.
Lon is a native of Eugene and Janice came here to go to school in 1983 and never left. We both enjoy staying in VRBOs whenever we travel and are looking forward to sharing our home.
This house has been in the family since 1949. It has seen many reiterations and modifications over the year. We believe it has never looked better. We love the love the house and its location, and have enjoyed furnishing it. It is still and always will be a work in progress!
The house is set well back from the road. It is spacious, has good light, large front deck, and despite being in town, it feels private. We enjoy being surrounded by large, mature fir trees, watching the squirrels and the occasional deer strolling through.
