Family Suite

This house is great for a family trip to the Wildlife Safari! The location is perfect and the property is suited to accommodate all ages with plenty of room to spread out. Family games, a place to grill, large kitchen and attention to detail from the cleaning team.

Wonderful Clean Rental

We had a great stay and home was just what was advertised. There were so many personal touches and the owner was great to deal with. There was a problem with the A/C before we arrived which was quickly relayed to us by owner and they had it fixed just after our arrival. We will definitely be back next time we are in town.

Wonderful location

The house was very clean and close to town. We were steelhead fishing so it was a central location for the North and South Umpqua rivers. There were plenty of amenities for preparing our meals. The game board collection and bath towel supply were added bonuses. We didn't use the washer and dryer but it was nice that laundry soap was provided if we needed to!

Winston Gem

The perfect house in Winston. The house was very clean, easy to get to/find, had everything we needed included a cute coffee / tea station and is located in a new development. Checkin was a breeze and Leah is the absolute best host! Communication with her was so easy, helpful and responsive. We will stay here every time we come to the Winston / Roseburg area!

Quick overnight worked out great!

Short stay with family to be able to visit Wildlife Safari with our 3 yr old grandson. House worked perfect for us. Super clean, well appointed and had what we needed. It was smoky from the fires so didn’t spend much time outside other than to cook burgers on the grill.

Welcoming and Comfortable

Leah was wonderful, responded immediately to my call for help after I arrived and could not unlock the door. It took a few tries to solve the problem, but the lock worked fine after she got it working correctly, and we had no further problems with it. We really enjoyed staying in her home!

Just perfect in every wway!

The communication and organization of this owner was top-notch. The property was exactly as described and just perfect for our needs. Clean, organized, and as turn-key as you can imagine. The keyless entry / lock system made our life so much easier as we weren't arriving until after midnight. I recommend this property and host to anyone looking for a great place to stay in the general Roseburg, OR area!

Nice home.

The property was clean and very nice. There was a fly problem, but I killed 58 of them. The only real problem is not being able to communicate with the owner if you don't want the VRBO app on your phone or computer.

Excellent!

Excellent communication from our host, Leah. Upon arrival everything was set up and ready. House is on a cute little cul-de-sac just off the main road, easy access. Quick drive to a number of wineries. Was a very short trip for us, so we didn’t get a chance to do much exploring. House was set up with pretty much everything we needed, but we didn’t use much since we were visiting with family for the weekend. Highly recommend, great property and a great host!

Great Stay!!

We absolutely loved this rental! My kids loved having their own "rooms" and we very much enjoyed our time spent here. Many comfortable places and plenty of room. All of the beds were very comfortable and the bathrooms were spacious with all needs accommodated. We loved the coffee bar that was available and appreciated using the washer and dryer also. If I were to have any complaint at all, minor at that, the metal dining chairs were very uncomfortable and low so it was a challenge with the toddler. That being said, we would DEFINTIELY stay here again! The owners were easy to reach and very concerned about our well being. THANK YOU!
