Perfect Location and House
Great location in Eugene. Within walking distance of multiple things including restaurants, breweries, arcade, vintage shops and small movie theater. Also a short drive away from the ducks campus and stadium. Definitely recommend this house to anyone looking to stay in the Eugene area.

Nice amount of space and location- recommend
My husband and I stayed here for 3 nights during our anniversary trip. House is well equipped and has a cute little yard and everything you could need inside. The hairdryer was a good one ( not like a hotel where they’re usually useless). There was a crock of coffee beans to grind fresh for coffee in the mornings, and my favorite thing- the freezer was stocked with two bowls of ice and three trays already making more- the kitchen sink had a filter so you can refill the trays to make more throughout your stay. The host is responsive and helpful but not intrusive at all. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone visiting Eugene.

Great Eugene Location
This house was perfect for walking downtown and to the track. Check-in/out was simple, no issues. The house had some ants and other critters, but if you are diligent about not leaving food or anything out, it was fine.

Great Location - Needs some TLC
Overall, our stay at "A Step Away From Downtown - Quiet, Light and Clean" was adequate, but there were several areas that fell short of expectations. On the positive side, the location of the property was excellent, and we appreciated the early check-in granted by the owner. The exterior of the home was charming with its beautiful flowers, and the surroundings were peaceful and quiet. However, there were some issues that need addressing. We encountered confusion with the heater, and although the owner responded and offered alternative heaters, the outdated heate and dirty filter was a concern. Additionally, we noticed water around the base of the toilet, which was concerning, but unfortunately, the owner did not respond to this issue. The bathroom had a musty smell, and the towels seemed to absorb this odor, which was unpleasant. The couch was stained and uncomfortable, not reflecting the new appearance shown in the listing photos. Furthermore, the screens on the sliding doors were damaged, and some did not close properly. The patio furniture was not as pictured, and the grill mentioned in the details was unusable due to its condition and overgrowth of bamboo in the shed. We discovered many burnt-out light bulbs throughout the property. Despite sending emails with attached photos highlighting these issues, we received no response from the owner. In conclusion, while our stay was manageable, it's evident that the property needs a thorough cleaning and maintainance.

Great place
This is the perfect little house for a small group looking to do things outside of the home. It is small, but has a nice layout. The couch was not comfortable, but they do go the extra mile with the little extras like condiments and coffee, and ice. There are lots of nice restaurants nearby that we walked to.

We enjoyed our few day stay in this adorable, older home. It was a perfect location for us to walk to and from restaurants and shopping, especially the holiday market at the Fairgrounds. We did use Uber several times but again, easy trips since the location is great.

We loved staying here. We had plenty of room for 3 of us and every single thing we needed stocked in the house. The best part is that we were close enough to walk to restaurants and it was an easy drive to the U of O campus.
