Very wonderful property! The house is so clean and you can tell is lovingly maintained. Beautiful inside and out. Also if you’re a parent of a George Fox student. You cannot get a much better location than right across the street! The hot tub was a fun bonus as well. We had an amazing time and hope to stay there again soon
Beautiful Victorian home with antique decor. Hot tub was clean and perfect temperature. Bed was extremely comfortable! Great location. Walking distance to downtown Newberg and great coffee shop. 10” drove to wineries. Cooked dinner 2 nights with all dishes / utensils that we needed . This was our 2nd visit and we will return.

Thank you for the lovely review Angela! I am delighted you had another great stay!
This charming historic home had everything we hoped for and more. The location was ideal, and the décor especially the collection of antique clocks added so much personality.The sofa, beds, and furniture were all very comfortable, which made it easy to relax. We especially loved the cozy fireplace and soaking in the hot tub. It was the perfect place to unwind & we would absolutely stay again!

Thank you for your thoughtful review. I am delighted to know the house served you well. Please come back and visit again!!
We have stayed in VRBOs all over the world and we have rarely found one as comfortable as Leigh’s house. She gave us a quick orientation whenever we arrived and the house was just charming. A well supplied kitchen, extra pillows if needed and a great location. We definitely want to come back!

Thank you for the lovely review, I'm so happy you enjoyed your stay! Looking forward to having you !
I'd be happy to stay here again. Loved the beautiful furnishings, very comfortable and the bonus of a spa made our ladies get away extra special. Close to town, but away from noisy streets. The University just across the street provides numerous walking paths through some beautiful landscape.

About the host
Hosted by Leigh Wellikoff
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.
