Beautiful, Peaceful Getaway

This little cottage was a perfect, quiet spot to getaway. It included everything we needed for a weekend away, and the host even left breakfast items, snacks, and drinks as a thoughtful bonus. The deck by the river offers spectacular views and a quiet spot to enjoy a meal or just relax. It was a half hour to Eugene and about an hour from Clear Lake, where we kayaked and went hiking. I would highly recommend!

Quiet and comfortable

Was a very nice and comfortable place. We were a little disappointed because we didn’t read all the fine print and thought the cottage was on the river and had a jacuzzi. Those things are available but are shared with the main house on the property. The cottage is across the driveway. But it was a great relaxing getaway, the bed is super comfy!

A wonderful getaway

My mom and I stayed here two nights to get some river time and celebrate her birthday. We couldn’t recommend it more highly! Robbin is a friendly, responsive, and gracious host; the cottage is charming, comfortable, and well appointed, and, between their lovely garden and the fabulous decks above the river, the location can’t be beat. If you’re traveling here from far away, this is a wonderful spot to explore the magical McKenzie. And if you’re from Eugene or somewhere similarly close-by (like we were), it offers a terrific getaway to spend time on the river. We will definitely be back!

Beautiful property in beautiful location! River view from deck and hot tub was excellent. The cabin/guesthouse had everything we could desire and more. The owners thought of everything and were very responsive to questions before our arrival. The bed was super comfy.

Perfect peaceful getaway

Thank you for the weekend 2 tired moms needed after over 2 years of a pandemic with young children. Perfect recharge. Hot springs and gorgeous hiking nearby and waking up every morning and soaking in the hot tub, overlooking the river was like a dream. We will definitely be back. Thank you for everything and also for stocking the kitchenette so thoughtfully.

Sweet Spot

The cottage is nicely decorated and has so many thoughtful touches, including lots of coffee and tea choices, continental breakfast options, and snacks. The property is beautiful and is directly on the river. The owners (who were very nice and seem to be very community minded) encouraged us to enjoy their outdoor space...great place to relax, read, talk, enjoy your drink. There's a brand new big hot tub too!

Well-equipped, quiet, comfortable stay on the McKenzie

We had a very nice visit at Robbin’s cottage. We loved the variety of Keurig cups available, how quiet the property was and the comfy bed. It was a good value and well-appointed rental. They did a great job making sure we had everything we could need for a cozy winter couples getaway.

Quiet beautiful property with easy city access.

This little cottage is so sweet and cute. The property is so beautiful. The cottage is not on the river but on the other side of their main home. However, you are given free access to their beautiful decks and the hot-tub with plenty of privacy (which we took advantage of). Such a relaxing weekend getaway with the friendliest hosts.
