About this property
Sweet 3 Bedroom, Walk to Main St!
This spotless house is just three blocks from Independence Main St, the river, and the park. I'm a premiere host with many years of experience, check my other listing in Portland. https://www.vrbo.com/479000
We know how to make our guests feel at home, and we love the friendly, historic, walkable neighborhood you'll stay in. You'll love it here.
The lot is big, and there's a nice fire pit, and wood in the back for those starry summer nights outside.
Come stay here, for wine country tourism, weddings, biking, university visits, or just enjoy one of Oregon's most beautiful regions.
If you can verify that your pet is non-shedding and does not sleep with you, we may lower the pet fee.

Thank you so much, we were so honored to host your awesome group for a long stay.,
We very much enjoyed our stay & would certainly return! It's the perfect location for visiting Monmouth & Independence. We deeply appreciated a pet friendly location & comfortable beds after a long day in town.
The house worked well for our family who was in town for a wedding. Nicely appointed and good location to town, wedding venue and others who were staying locally.
The house was super cozy yet roomy enough for all 6 of us, and I didn't even realize when booking it what a big back yard it had!
perfect short walk to the coffee shops and breweries, will definitely be coming back.
It was exactly what we were looking for! Stayed for OSU’s family weekend because everything I Corvallis was full, and loved the cute neighborhood and lovely home. Amy was super helpful. Would definitely stay again.
Few hiccups with the check in process but overall a nice little house to stay in.

You are right about the hiccup in checking in and I apologize! It’s such a rarity for us. I thought I had sent you your check in directions while I was driving across the USA but it didn’t send. Thank goodness Robert was able to respond quickly! Thanks for staying.
Great house and location for Christmas with our son and grandchildren.
Everything was great. Really loved the ping pong table in the garage.
Would definitely love to stay there at another visit.
Property was exactly like listed - had to arrive a day early and they were able to accommodate us — their knowledge of the surrounding area ( binder with suggestion rules & just info ) was helpful especially when it came to the food — can’t wait to come back -

Thank you so much, Tanya! Robert has put a lot of effort into making sure people have local info. Can’t wait for you to come back.
We were in town for a wedding and this was the perfect house for our family of four. They had the best passcode/access to property system I’ve ever seen at a rental, so easy!

About the host
Hosted by Amy Taylor
I've been hosting guests for over twenty years. I have another property in Portland, and had one for twenty years at the Oregon Coast. I know what matters when you rent a house! Your comfort and enjoyment are my priority.
Why they chose this property
This is a neighborhood of turn-of-the-century homes and churches. It's a three block walk to Main Street with its wine bars, pubs, restaurants and shops, right across from the riverfront park. Our street is quiet, with very little traffic, BUT very infrequently a freight train passes by on the bridge behind the house. It's Willamette Valley Railroad and they only have two locomotives. I can't find what the schedule is but I've stayed there a lot and it's not frequent. Once in a while there's one in the early morning hours.
