Likewise we're giving you the option for an EXTENDED CHECK-OUT TIME for your reservations to 12 o'clock noon upon request! You get to sleep in even on the last day of your vacation!

_____ BEST OF ALL WORLDS ____ Walk to the UO Campus and Hayward Field or stroll through the hills of old-growth forest in Hendricks Park! Close to restaurants, grocery stores, the Duck Store, you name it! This 5-star get-away is located right next to Hendricks Park, the oldest city park in Eugene with 78 acres of wooded paths and hiking trails suitable for joggers, birders, and those who just want to decompress. Enjoy a library of Track Town books We provide official clear bags that meet the UO athletic events requirements. Can't find anything better than Hilltop Haven!

_____ LOCATION _____
This quiet forested hilltop haven townhouse is a great get-away and yet only 2.5 miles from the center of Eugene and a little over a mile from the UO Campus. Cool breezes and the shady tree canopy give it a vacation get-away feel from every room. Nearby restaurants and close access to all the UO athletic activities, downtown cultural events, and area wineries make this the perfect home-base for your vacation.

_____ LIVING SPACE _____
Completely renovated this 2 bedroom 1.5 bath 2-story home has a modern, eclectic feel and features plenty of comfortable seating whether in the living room, front deck, or back patio. Stretch out on our leather couch or in our comfy leather recliners with ottomans and cozy throws. A fold-out table is nestled right in front of the huge picture window for a great workspace, game area, or gathering space for bigger meals. Enjoy our SMART TV and log in to your favorite TV streaming!

_____ BEDROOMS _____
The two bedrooms offer great separation of space upstairs and feature two of the top comfort mattress available. Come home and sink into a Tuft and Needle queen size mattress with luxurious bedding in our western-themed room. Or try out a Purple queen mattress in our nature-themed room. Extra pillows of various firmness, linens and blankets are stored in each bedroom closet. Each bedroom has alarm clocks and reading lamps plus a sitting corner and looks out into the tree canopy.

_____ KITCHEN _____
We make it easy for you to make yourself at home with a fully equipped kitchen that’s ready to serve you with a cute and casual bistro table. Cook your own meals! Reheat your left-overs! Make your breakfast smoothies! Enjoy eating on the private backyard garden deck or on the front side deck off the living room where you can watch the world go by, including our local flock of turkeys.

_____ SMOKING IS PROHIBITED INSIDE AND OUTSIDE _____
Fire danger is very real in this highly wooded old forest area! No outdoor grilling! No smoking of any kind, inside or out!

_____ GARDEN & DECKS __ ___
Take time to enjoy the native plants in our backyard garden including Bleeding Heart, Sword and Deer Fern, Red Flowering Current, Oregon Grape, Bunch Berry, Snowberry, Piggyback plants, a Star Magnolia tree, and many others. Be aware that being in the middle of a park can play havoc if you are prone to allergies! Be sure to come prepared if that describes you. If you forget, you will find a convenience packet of Claritin (or something similar) in the upstairs bathroom!

Because we are in the woods, there is no grassy yard area but if you walk to Hendricks Park just around the corner you will find swings, picnic tables, drinking fountain, public bathrooms and pathways winding throughout the woods, Native Plant and Rhododendron Gardens!

____ SECURITY CAMERAS ____
For your security we have video cameras monitoring each of our doors: front door, deck slider, backyard slider and driveway. For your privacy there are NO interior cameras of any kind.

____ PARKING ____
There is NO "on-street" parking for this unit. The tree-lined winding roads are part of the charm but parking in this hilly, forested neighborhood can be challenging. Many neighbors have carved out private parking areas in front of their houses. Unfortunately, because our home is on a steep corner we don’t have that. While we don’t have street parking for you, we do have a PRIVATE SINGLE ATTACHED GARAGE AND DRIVEWAY where you can park. The driveway is steep but we just put in stairs and handrails that have a gradual grade and are well-lit which make a huge difference.

____ WELCOME HOME ____
Come make yourself at home!

Have a question that comes up during your stay? Just give us a call! We are right in the neighborhood to here be sure you have everything you need for your stay!

____ POLICIES ____
No smoking anywhere on property.
(High fire hazard neighborhood in hills!)

We feel so fortunate to have found this place on short notice for Thanksgiving week. It’s in a quiet location next to Hendricks park and was perfect for our needs. Lisa is an amazing host, and everything is labeled and well organized. This is really the gold standard for VRBO rentals. Thank you, Lisa, for a great stay in Eugene!

This place was great. Lisa gave it the little extra personal touch which made us feel so welcome. This was a perfect place for 4 people. Great location and beautifully surrounded by trees.

Perfect Spot to Enjoy Eugene

In many ways, our experience at this property confirms why we always seek out VRBO properties over hotels. What an excellent stay! This townhome is located in a beautiful area--be sure to enjoy the nearby park which is extraordinary. The property manager was excellent to work with, and there were so many personal touches that enhanced our stay. We loved the "zen garden" backyard for morning coffee and the well appointed kitchen. A great stay! 5-stars!

My wife and I came to Eugene for the weekend. The property was extremely clean and the photos in the listing were accurate. It’s a little tricky finding it the first time, but Lisa’s directions were perfect. If we go back to Eugene, we’ll definitely stay here again.

Weekend in Eugene

Lisa is a delightful host, prompt in responding to questions and concerns with the VRBO. She was thoughtful with provisions of amenities and information about events in town. The home itself is comfortable, practical, and nestled next to Hendricks Park nearby, a great oasis from town or the Duck's stadium. Would stay again, recommend to others.

About the host

Hosted by Lisa Kaye

Host profile image
Lisa Kaye here, the owner, manager, designer and resident artist photographer. Welcome! Three of us moved to Oregon about 25 years ago from the Southern California area so that my dog, a little Mini-Aussie, could have sheep to practice for my hobby of competitive sheep herding trials and that so all of us could have a little more rustic lifestyle. We decided to go in together and bought 5 acres about a half hour outside of Eugene with a menagerie of critters.

Why they chose this property

About five years ago we started looking for a multi-family property as an investment so that we had an option for moving off the farm when we retired. The other side of this townhouse is going to be our retirement space.

What makes this property unique

We've made sure you have everything you need to feel at home. Privacy. Full kitchen. Relaxing space. Comfortable beds. Convenient working space. Top-notch internet. And an outdoors that is magical.

Just a stone's throw from everything on the UO Campus and downtown, this hilltop haven feels like it is a world away nestled in the forest -- a perfect home-base for your visit to Eugene.
