Delightful Cottage in Central Eugene

Brand new (August 2010), delightful tiny cottage in Central Eugene (Home of the Oregon Ducks), is located between the Pacific Ocean and Cascade Mountains in the lovely Willamette Valley. Features include serene colors and textures, tall ceilings, and antiques. All furniture and linens are top quality and new for your comfort. Reading a book in the cozy window seat is a perfect way to unwind after a full day of activities. Ample storage is provided for your belongings. A deep closet with shelves can accommodate most personal items. In addition, space above the 9 foot row of cabinets can store extras. Larger items can be placed in the garage as stated on the checklist. Finally, light fills the cottage through extensive quality lighting, skylight, bay window, and two other large windows. Built with a good sized kitchen, the studio comfortably sleeps 2 adults and 1 child. The w/d and closet space are bumpouts into the garage. The overall sq. footage is about 450 sq feet. A ductless heat pump was installed June 2019 for ac and heat.

Your home away from home is off a safe, quiet dead end street, surrounded by lovely gardens. Bungalows, Cottages, Tudors, Atomic Age Ranches, and Craftsmen homes were built in the neighborhood, creating an interesting flat walking tour through one of Eugene's older neighborhoods. Plenty of patio seating is available to take advantage of our perfect Oregon summer and fall. Next to the Amazon bike trail, easy access to Eugene is available. In addition, the rapid bus system is just a few blocks from the cottage. An easy walk will get you to major venues in Eugene: the U of O, Hult Center/Cuthbert Amphitheater/The Shedd, library, Saturday Market, fine dining, and many recreational opportunities. Also, several parks are sited close to the cottage.

We enjoyed this cozy, well-appointed space, secluded in the lovely landscape of our happy host. The bedding and linens were lovely, and the morning granola, yogurt, and fruit, were an added bonus.

The Perfect Eugene Experience

We arrived later than expected, but our host greeted us and showed us around. Very hospitable and had great recommendations and local knowledge. We stayed 3 nights and we felt she went above and beyond. We would definitely stay there again. The backyard apartment was clean, had laundry, and we appreciated the espresso machine.

Maybe my favorite VRBO, ever?

Seriously, this place is a must-stay if you have 2 or fewer folks who don’t need a lot of space. I could imagine staying here for an entire month quite easily given the thinking that went into the design of this clean, comfortable cottage. There’s a full sized washer and dryer, a dishwasher, a comfy bed, a nice bathroom - I was on a long cross-country road trip from Texas and wished I was staying another week! Carole was so wonderful to visit with and helpful with everything I needed. I’ll be back again with my wife next time we visit Eugene for sure!

Our guest had rave reviews about the quietness, and the owner's kindness and attention to detail.

Beautifully appointed and maintained little gem. Would have liked mention that it was attached to the back of a garage. Access was not visible from the street which made it a little more complicated for multiple people assigned to picking our guest up be able to easily find the door to the unit. Otherwise, perfect!

Carole's cottage is full of careful, thoughtful touches, and Carole's herself is a wonderful host. The neighborhood is quiet, safe, and pretty. All-in-all, a truly excellent experience. I'd stay there again in a heartbeat.

My only complaint is that it wasn't clear to me that this was a studio apartment. I thought there was more division of space.It turned out to be fine, and my friends had a wonderful stay! The host was delightful and very responsive to all questions. I highly recommend this property.

Felt like home

The first thing i noticed was the garden, so beautiful! It felt warm and cozy and safe. The owner is very sweet and accommodating. I had surgery on my knee and she was making sure that i knew about all of the stairs and driveway. Even checked in on me after surgery. The kitchen had an amazing selection of coffee and teas. Along with sugar to choose from. She left my favorite yogurt in the fridge too. (She didnt know that LOL)I would definitely go back! We found it to be perfect for what we needed and wanted.

This is the second time I’ve stayed here. If it’s available whenever I return to Eugene I will definitely book it. Carole is a very friendly and helpful host. The room has everything I need, including a washer and dryer. There’s a beautiful view of her lovely garden. I feel very comfortable and safe staying here. I highly recommend this perfect place for one or two people.

A Magical Cottage

Tucked away in a lush garden behind a lovely home in the heart of Eugene, sits this truly exceptional property. Not only is it charming, its ingenuous design makes the best use of space we’ve seen in a VRBO. Spotless, warm, welcoming, and comfortable. Carole, our host, was beyond helpful. A+!
