Great Home and Great Host!
We were very pleased with University House. The house was immaculate and well-decorated with family treasures. We had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The location is perfect for trips to wineries or day trips to the coast, Portland, or hiking. Leigh is a very attentive host and I would give her 10 stars if I could!

Amazing stay in Newberg
This home was great. Comfortable and beautifully decorated. The kitchen had everything you could ever need for cooking. The neighborhood was nice and walkable. The owner lived across the street and was available for any questions or issues and gave great suggestions for dining, groceries and wine tasting. The hot tub was the icing on the cake. I would stay here again and highly recommend this property.

Absolutely lovely house in a great location
We cannot say enough nice things about this property. Every possible thing you could want has been thought of and is readily available. Leigh is wonderful and gave a great run down of the house. She said that if we needed anything, to just ask, but we truly never needed to bother her. A great place to relax between wine tastings. Hang out in the hot tub, or relax by a fire in the living room. Just wonderful ambience no matter where you decide to hang out. Should we even end up staying new Newberg again, we would absolutely stay here.

About the host

Hosted by Leigh Wellikoff

Host profile image
I have always loved the historic buildings and close knit neighborhoods in this northern part of Newberg. Many years ago, I was delighted to jump at the opportunity when I saw a realtor installing a 'For Sale' sign on the property that would become U House. I've restored four houses in this part of town, nurturing them from various states of disrepair into beautiful homes. My love of antiques shows throughout the house, as many of the furnishings are family heirlooms. In my forty years of living in the Willamette Valley, I continue to be amazed at the astonishing variety available here. Downtown Newberg is full of character with an intimate, easy-going atmosphere. The mid-valley area is so spectacular in its geography, recreational choices, abundant wildlife, agricultural diversity and artistic community, yet also close to town and city environments. I enjoy being able to go from valley to mountain to desert in a few hours to the East, or West through the Coast Range to some of the most stunning coastline to be found anywhere. Allow us to introduce you to this unique part of the world, or assist you in deepening your own appreciation of what our area has to offer. Welcome to the U House...your home away from home while visiting Yamhill County.

Why they chose this property

This turn of the century home caught my eye years before it became available, and I was thrilled to be able to turn the house into a comfortable haven for travellers to enjoy. This is a beautiful historic area with a friendly neighborhood network, quiet yet close to a wide array of dining and activities in premiere wine country.

What makes this property unique

The wine country mural in the hot tub patio draws your stress out and away with every warm bubbly moment. Family antiques lend a sense of belonging and connection to your stay. Enjoy the flames in the fireplace while placing your cares aside for a time. You need only ask and we will provide full concierge service to recommend dining and sightseeing options as well as make those reservations for you. We truly want you to feel at home here.
