Not yet ready

The outdoor space was not yet ready for summer. Hot tub did not work had to wait a day for it to be fixed. Lots of cobwebs on outdoor furniture. The BBQ that is provided does not grill properly. And we had to clean it before we could use it. The trail to the river is not finished and very dangerous. I slipped and fell. That was a disappointment for a property on the river and you can't get to the river. Privacy was also a concern.

Sibling Retreat

This property was great for myself, my siblings & spouses to gather to bury our parent's ashes. It allowed us all to have comfy beds, places to sit & converse both inside & out, a kitchen to prepare yummy meals & spaces for individual processing & contemplation. The view was gorgeous. Only down side is you can hear the highway & would have rather been able to hear more of the river but the space was still great!

Huge space, endless entertainment opportunities

The location is very atractive, looking over a nicely wild river. Then there are two separate balcony areas overlooking that river. A hot tub (102 degrees)! A barbeque, seating fora LOT of people. While we only counted three bedrooms, not the four advertised, there is still room for at least ten guests. The garage is a geniune man cave. So, a great place for a bunch of folks, and an extravagance for a couple of relatively spry seniors.

MTB/Hiking/Getaway

The place was just great, just as described on the site. Mountain biking and hiking was great and we went to the Redwoods and Crater Lake. You couldn’t ask for a better place to stay.

Really well appointed, almost luxury

This place is clean and extremely well appointed. We could have easily just hung out there all day, every day, but we had outdoors stuff to do in the area. Coffee, towels, linen, all in excellent order. Hot tub was awesome after a long day of hiking.

Summer vacation!

This place was a spectacular setting! Perfect access for us with our scheduled adventures from jet boat rides, to Oregon caves, to crater lake national park, and the wildlife safari! The access to the river was a true bonus! The place has everything we needed with some few kinks. The supplies for a week stay were minimal! One roll of toilet paper for a whole week and no cleaning supplies. We bought our own at the local store but be prepared it’s triple the cost of normal stores so plan ahead. That said, it was a great week and would highly recommend!

A nice family getaway

Listed as a four bedroom with an office the office was a desk in the master bedroom. And there were two other small bedrooms and a bed in the garage. Very nice outdoor space. Overall cozy and relaxing.

Wedding Week on the Rogue River

We have enjoyed our stay thoroughly. We were able to rent both houses on the river. One house contained two adult children with babies. The other was adults with no small children. I hadn’t planned on the beauty and the closeness of the river. The noise and the sight of the river were beautiful. We communicated with the owners a couple of times when we needed help, and they were very responsive.

Crater Lake

Would highly recommend this home. The interior was beautifully decorated and thoughtfully appointed. We enjoyed the deck, rocking chairs, and the fire pit. The hot tub was wonderful after a trip to Crater Lake and a rafting trip on the Rogue River. If we were able to stay a day longer we would have loved to take out the bikes. We also recommend Rogue River Rafters. Within walking distance and Dancin Winery in Jacksonville about 20 min away. Thank you!

Fantastic Home and Location!

We rented this house and the one next door for a company retreat. The homes were both bright and clean and in excellent condition with lots of fun amenities indoors and outdoors. Communication with the owner and maintenance agent was prompt and helpful. The neighborhood was great. The river and views were beautiful. We didn't find the freeway volume to be a problem at all (we could hear it, but it wasn't loud or distracting). We loved that the living room/kitchen areas had LOTS of windows looking over the river. The top queen bunks weren't ideal for adults, but would be a great place for kids to sleep. The beds were clean and extra comfortable (we didn't use the pullouts or murphy beds). The hosts have obviously had some experience and done their research on creating a fantastic getaway! We would definitely stay here again!

Nice property

We had a very nice time during our mini vacation. The towels/robes were a little damp that were folder so we needed to throw them in the dryer before use. The hot water was extremely hot. Overall our visit was nice. There was plenty of seating and sleeping arrangements. We would definitely stay again.

Quaint house on the river!

Clean house with lots of upgrades. Converted garage into a game room. The beds were all very comfortable with more than enough linens, towels & cloths. Great deck overlooking the River. I messaged the owner several times about an early check-in & although we weren't able to get in that much earlier, she was very responsive & nice. Overall, I highly recommend!!!

Amazing house

The drift away is a beautiful house with all the lovely touches. The outdoor space is quite magical with plenty of lounging options to enjoy. While you can hear the interstate at the house level, the noise dulls the closer to the river that you get. The river access is within the property with some calm water created by a rock barrier. Overall, the stay was good. Also, the local eating options were excellent, especially the carts in Gold Hill.
