The home is cozy and beautifully decorated. We really appreciated the little things, too, like plenty of towels plus baggies and kleenex. The creek and property are lovely, a relaxing place to hang out. This is by far the prettiest house we saw in the historic district. Great renovation work and cheerful/welcoming yellow house. I have stayed at many, many VRBO properties through the years and this was the best experience of all of them. Thanks to Jay for the helpful convo about the area just before we arrived!

Great home and great host! The home was immaculate with everything we needed plus more including an espresso maker. The area was quiet and very close to downtown. We loved the backyard next to the steam an a beautiful garden. The beds were very comfortable as well.

Great location in Salem

We came to visit our daughter who attends Willamette University. The property was in a quiet neighborhood and you could walk to the University and downtown Salem. The home and kitchen were well equipped for all our cooking needs. Had puzzles and games and YouTube TV and was pet friendly for our dog. This is our 2nd stay at this property and plan to stay there again in the future.

Incredible Stay!

Our family came to the area for our son’s college graduation. The historic house was so charming, clean and had everything you need for a very comfortable stay. The location was so pretty and we loved sitting in the backyard beside the creek. All the beds were so comfortable, even the pullout couch! Lots of blankets, pillows, towels! Jay, the property manager, was so friendly and a pleasure to work with! Sad to leave.

Perfect little house

Perfect space for our family with two couples and two teens. Park nearby has a little basketball court for kids to stay entertained (swings and play equipment for the littles). Patio near the creek was perfect for morning coffee as was the second story deck. Loved the yard for our dogs to relax. Kitchen well equipped so we didn’t have to eat out so many meals during our 8 day stay. Neighborhood felt super safe with lots of people walking dogs and enjoying the sunny days. Also close to Minto Brown park for runs and the dog park. Saturday market at capital was super cute. House has lots of charm and we had a really great stay!

Just Perfect!

This beautiful, darling yellow house in Salem is THE best vacation home we have ever rented (and we have traveled all over the world). It is immaculate, very well appointed with everything you need in any situation. The house itself is beautifully designed with comfortable, high end furniture that is cozy and great for hanging out. Even though it is a historic home it offers all the modern amenities that you are looking for. The location and gardens, next to the creek, are tranquil and serene offering comfy furniture to sit in the sun, listen to the creek and enjoy a BBQ. The host is amazing and gets everything ready for your arrival. Our only regret is that our trip was so short. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us!

Salem Rental

The house was very nice, and the patio, overlooking a stream, was outstanding! Because the central AC is not zoned, it was not very effective. Since there are no screens on the windows, we could not sleep with the windows open. The only issue with the house was that it was stuffy upstairs at night. Other than that one problem, which was helped with a fan, it was possibly the best VRBO rental (out of many) we have ever visited. The kitchen was very well equipped, and the patio alone makes it an outstanding rental.
