About the host
Hosted by Melanie Johnson

Living my best life as "Mom" to a big happy family of 8 kids + 3 grandbabies, I spend my time keeping the fam party bus rolling and helping oversee the family businesses. For many years we've hosted college students and a varierty of friends who lived with us, and now we've started short-term rentals. The welcome mat is out for you and your family too at Hometown Fave in Albany. #WelcomeFriends!
Why they chose this property
We bought this "oldie but goodie" from the original owners years ago. During its lifetime, this big yellow house has served as a home, an extra apartment for family, and medical offices. Now, the Vintage cottage welcomes people from all over the world. How fun!
What makes this property unique
Our vision was to honor the 40's era of the house when we remodeled with the modern updates. Then we furnished the space comfortably for short-term use. Staying true, we kept the original wood floors, the triangle window in the entry closet, and the central heating stove (Bertha - in excellent shape). We trust this is an affordable place for you to explore and enjoy the bounty of the Willamette Valley and all that our area has to offer!
