About this property

On the river with your own private boat and dock!Moments from downtown!

You won't want to leave here after spending a few days looking out at the river and acres of scenic land across the canal. Very relaxing with the feeling of a great lodge as you listen to the sound of the waterfall! Enjoy your morning coffee in one of 3 beautiful outdoor sitting areas or in the hot tub. Pre's Trail is right across the waterway or if you're wanting a bike ride there are 5 bikes available to enjoy miles of bike trails right outside your door.
Sunsets are amazing around the outdoor gas fire pit as you watch the wildlife. You will feel like you're in a private resort yet you are moments from downtown.
There is also a man cave with a pool table and 80 inch TV. Truly a gem of a property!

Fantastic Riverside House
We were 2 families (8 people) in Eugene for UO graduation and this house suited us perfectly. We had plenty of space to spread out and the yard and riverside setting were amazing. In addition we were able to walk to the graduation ceremony at Autzen as it was less than a mile.

UoO Parent’s Weekend
This house really offers a home away from home to spend time with daughter, her friends and family. Watched Spring footballl and after a short walk back, were able to watch Oregon baseball on big TV in family room. A great place to relax, talk walks along the river. The house offers so much, is easy access to campus and shops snd the hosts really made it so simple to enjoy our stay. Thank you for sharing your home with us.

The perfect home for a graduation celebration
We had the perfect 5 days in this picturesque, well equipped home! The amenities were fabulous from abundant entertainment options to extremely comfortable beds to a most well equipped kitchen nestled in a charming neighborhood. This is the perfect home for a family, group of friends or couples sharing a vacation experience.

Duck Game
The house is perfect for a large group. We were 4 couples in town for a duck game, and the house is in an ideal location to walk to autzen. Hot tub stand up paddle boards and the big screen TVs. Kept us busy. We will definitely rent this place again.

Happy Holidays!
We rented the house so we could have a place to gather for a Christmas Eve, and Christmas Day family get-together. The house was decorated beautifully. The Christmas spirit was alive. The house was well stocked, and had everything we needed to cook a full Christmas dinner. Overall, the trip was successful, and we were happy with our accommodations.

Perfect for our couples weekend
We came to visit friends/family and stayed at this wonderful property with one other couple. The house has all of the amenities you need and then some. The back yard is beautiful with so many lounging options. We used the brand new paddle boards as well as the little electric boat; so much fun to cruise up and down the canal. We were able to check in early, and home was very clean. Will definitely return.

Got the job done
Overall the property was okay. The location was beautiful and peaceful. The house and outdoor area was extremely cluttered. The house was muggy upon arrival and most of the windows were missing screens, making it uncomfortable for me to leave windows open overnight. Deck area was incredibly dirty. Light fixtures/chandelier partially covered with cobwebs. Probably wouldn’t rent this house again next year.

If I could give the property more stars I would. The owners are amazing and are available if you need anything. The home is perfect for a getaway. I'll be surprised if you want for anything. The property had so many extras. Plus an amazing view. I can't say enough. I will be back next year.

Beautiful house and yard. Pictures don't do the property justice.
We had multiple generations staying at this house. Very comfortable for 7 people, ranging in age from 17 months to 63. Plenty of room for everyone the back yard is a great escape. Plenty of shade during the day and right on the water so it doesn't feel as warm as it really is. The younger people in the group really enjoyed the little boat the is on the canal. We enjoyed our stay and didn't want to come back to the hot weather and real world.

Disappointed, felt like an unwelcome visitor in someone's home
The location is wonderful, but the house is clearly owner occupied which I don't care for. The drawers and closets are completely full of their things, the refrigerator packed with their food and cars in the garage and driveway. There are notes about not wearing shoes or playing the heirloom piano and cameras everywhere. I felt like I was an unwelcome visitor in someone's home. We have stayed at many VRBO homes, and this was the first one that was a complete disappointment.

Amazing space to visit, enjoy family and the outdoors
This quirky house has everything you could need and a wonderful outside space. Our family came in for an event at Hayward Field and the house was just the space we needed. There is plenty of space to host (we had our track team over to grill one night) and all the amenities you could ask for and then some. The bedrooms upstairs easily fit two people per bed and the living room is where we set our kids up. There was not a true bunk space, but that extra living area allowed us to set up air mattresses, or have the kids crash on the couch and have have their own space. The only thing that is lacking is storage space. The cabinets in the kitchen are full, so if you bring extra things that would use pantry space, there isn't really any....be prepared to just put it on the counters. The downstairs master also has limited drawer space or a place to hang your things. If you like to unpack your things like I do, then the master doesn't have a ton of space for that. Some of the bedrooms upstairs have the space, but not all the rooms. The outside space is AMAZING. Tons of seating, grills, a Trager, and more. We loved just sitting on the dock or the upper deck having our morning coffee or late night cocktails. We met the owner and he was wonderful. He gave us little hints on how to turn on the water features and info on the boats. Overall it was a great fit for us and we will definitely want to book it in the future.

Disappointing Stay
When we arrived at 1pm, front porch was covered in leaves, front door had many advertisements hanging on it, as if nobody had been there for a while. The alarm went off when we opened the front door, with no instructions on how to disarm it. The house was 62 degrees, and after 4 phone calls and three texts, someone's son was sent over at 6:30pm to clean the filter to get it to work. The house was finally warm when we woke up the next morning. In the meantime, the owners told us to use the fireplace, but the batteries were dead, so we had to find batteries. There were two ceiling fans blowing cold down on us, and we had to call to find out how to turn them off. The remotes for them were in a drawer with personal items. We wrapped ourselves in blankets all afternoon and evening. We had rented the house to have a team meeting, so this was no great. The two lights in one bathroom were burned out, and the other bathroom was missing a light bulb. The ice in the freezer was old and completely stuck together, so we had no ice all week. They gave us two dishwasher tablets for the four days we were there. Aside from a notebook telling us the internet code, and when to leave the garbage at the curb, there were no instructions on where things were. With the initial appearance of the house, and the state of the inside, we think they forgot we were coming. Very disappointed to have my company meeting there, and spending all afternoon troubleshooting problems on the first day.
