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!

First- Shout out to Leah the owner, she's so friendly and helpful and she checked to make sure we had everything we need. Spent the weekend with my golf team for a tournament. This is the 2nd time I've stayed at this home. Getting into the house was a breeze. Walked in and it was absolutely immaculate and fresh. The kitchen is very nice with lots of space with an open concept and see the living room. The bedrooms were quite spacious with comfotable beds. The primary bedroom with bathroom was great. The other 2 rooms were quite nice too. There were extra pillows and bedding. The backyard is super cute. Nice for a bbq which there is one. Parking is great. Driveway holds 2 vehicles and a quiet culdesac. Easy to get to. Overall this is a fantastic place with a fantastic host. Can't wait to stay again. And check out was so simple

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!

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!

Quiet, clean, comfy

I never knew Winston Oregon could be such a beautiful place. This home was tucked behind the wild life safari in a private little neighborhood. It was beautiful, quiet and calm and the house sits at the beginning of a cul-de-sac. The interior of the house is an open concept very modern with rustic vibes. The beds were the most comfortable beds I’ve ever slept on! This is huge!!! The backyard is so charming with a detailed fire pit to enjoy, outdoor string lights for the ambience and comfortable seating. 100% satisfied and we will definitely be back again.

The AC worked wonderfully and all the appliances were in great condition. It would have been nice to have cushions for the outdoor furniture. A couple of the mattresses could be replaced. Overall it was a nice place to stay.

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.

It is just like the pictures! We loved it!

The Watusi house is absolutely as advertised. First impression is the smell of cleanliness when you open the front door, and that everything is as shown in the photos. The rooms are comfortable, beds comfy, bathrooms and kitchen are well stocked with all you need to have a home away from home. The backyard is welcoming and nice to spend time in, with fire pit, chairs and shade! We would definitely come back when we return to the area. Thank you!

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!

Nice house; well maintained

The house was just as shown in listing. Very clean, nicely decorated & good sized rooms. Huge master closet (big enough to put a travel crib in, if needed). Nice kitchen appliances & finishes. Comfy bed. Only one minor flaw - if you sleep light & like to have window open, the main bedroom is close to a main road; I slept fine, but my husband is an extremely light sleeper and the traffic (although pretty light overnight) somewhat bothered him. It was nice to have separate heat/cooling in ea. room; although, we couldn't quite figure out the operation - instructions would be nice. Also, I would suggest adding blinds to windows in 2 of the bedrooms; the drapes could be somewhat seen through, and didn't keep out all the light in the am. Thanks to the hosts for a great house to stay for a family wedding!

Perfect house for Professional Dog People

The home was clean. The kitchen was well equipped. The beds were comfortable. The owner communicated quickly. The house is in a quiet neighborhood. Neighbors were helpful at garbage time. I will certainly stay again when I am visiting the Roseburg 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.
