What's nearby

  • The Wildlife Safari is such an awesome place! It has been around for 38 years and was one of my favorite places I ever visited as a child. My children feel the same after visiting in the summer of 2014. This 600 acre park is home to over 500 animals and features a drive through park as well as a walk through viewing area, cafe and gift shop. One of our favorite parts is in a particular area of the drive-thru park, you can buy food and feed the animals which are emus and different types of deer from your car. Get your camera ready as hilarity ensues! http://www.wildlifesafari.net

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.

Great place to stay in Winston!

We stayed here for a night since we had a nearby disc golf tournament. Leah was a great host and the house was super clean and comfy. Quiet neighborhood, cool back porch to hang out. Highly recommend! Thank you Leah!

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!

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.

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!

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.

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!

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.

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!

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!
