Recent Guest Reviews:
"This home was truly spectacular—spotless, welcoming, and beautifully designed. It immediately felt like a comfortable landing spot for our 3 generation girls weekend. The location was perfect for my daughter’s softball camp at Linfield, and we loved being so close to great dining options in town, which made our downtime even more enjoyable. We’re so grateful for such a wonderful space. Thank you to Chelsey for making everything feel special—and for going above and beyond after check-out. We'd come back in a heartbeat!" -Erin (Feb. 2026)
"We really enjoyed our stay here! The beds were comfy and we loved lounging on the big couch in front of the fireplace after a day of wineries. The kitchen was really well stocked with everything you could possibly need. We would definitely stay again!" -Katie (February 2025)

This home is clean and very well appointed with everything needed for a comfortable stay in the heart of wine country. The generous kitchen supplies and outside fire pit enabled us to enjoy leisurely dinners and evenings after days of hiking and wine tasting. And the communication with the host was superb. I definitely recommend this location.

Wow! We’re so thrilled you enjoyed your stay! Thank you for being such great guests and you’re welcome anytime. :)
Great location in the heart of the Willamette Valley wine region, in a densely populated but quiet neighborhood within a mile of all conveniences. A comfortable three bedroom house, one of which has an ensuite bathroom, with a nice living room and well equipped kitchen. Well kept just as advertised.

This was one of the comfiest vacation rentals I’ve stayed at. We had everything we needed and the house was perfect for our group of 6 adults with plenty of gathering spaces. The kitchen was especially well stocked. It’s a quick drive to downtown in a cute neighborhood. Highly recommend!

Dan and I are proud Oregonians with a deep love for all that our state has to offer. We enjoy spending time outdoors, hiking and camping with our two boys. Over the years, we’ve watched the Willamette Valley’s wine industry grow into what it is today. It’s truly amazing to have award-winning wines right here in our own backyard.
