Lovely cottage on large rural property
The large cottage is set near but separated from owners home. Beautiful rhododendron hedges shield it from the main house, and it is cozy and comfortable and very well appointed. Lovely place to come home to after exploring the area by foot and bike and visiting wineries. Owners/builders greeted us and showed us the ropes. Very nice stay.

Beautiful and peaceful
Dale and Dana have created a place of beauty and comfort, both inside and out. The furniture was comfortable and the kitchen stocked with everything needed. Everything was clean and in good repair. There was beautiful art work on the walls and the beauty of nature outside—birds and flowers, trees and green grass. I loved listening to the birds in the morning as I woke up. Some days I listened to the rain; some days I sat in the sun out the back door. Truly lovely!

Excellent Get Away
The property was clean and in order. I felt safe as the owners were close by and were working outside on the property. They were very quick to fulfill my needs. We were in contact by text. My daughter, son-in-law and 3 children stayed inside mostly playing games. It was a great get away that I needed as my husband had died two months earlier and I needed to be with my family. I highly recommend this place.

Peaceful Cottage
Warmly greeted by Dana and her pup, Belle, at the entrance to their lovely and colorful garden. Immediately we felt comfortable and relaxed (the kids wanted Belle to stay for a sleepover!). After a quick orientation of the cottage, we settled in for the night. Amenities were great and we enjoyed the peace and quiet of the property. It was nice meeting and chatting with Dale, Dana’s husband and resident carpenter. Thank you Dana, Dale and Belle for a wonderful stay during our travels through Oregon! Sandi

Wonderful peaceful stay at this beautiful cottage. We were traveling to the coast so it was perfect.
Dana and Dale thought of everything. I stay regularly at VRBO homes and found this one to have everything (and more) that we needed. These hosts are 5 star rated folks and did everything to make us feel at home.

Return to Eugene area
Was looking for a place to stay in the Eugene area during the Olympic track and field trials and ended up here due to a lack of space in Eugene but it was quite appealing. It’s very similar to our home in Maryland with a vegetable garden and fruit trees and berries outside. A clean, nice looking space with everything that we needed. The owners were friendly and quick to were on a minor sink repair. Would recommend!

Our stay at Fair Haven in Elmira, Oregon
We traveled from Wyoming to Eugene, Oregon to attend the high school graduation of our grandson. Booking our vacation rental went smoothly and when we needed an extra day, our host was kind enough to take care of the details. The lovely little home was located in a beautifully taken care of area, lush with flowers and a wonderful vegetable garden. Our hosts were ever so kind as to provide us with fresh lettuce, broccoli and strawberries. The house was clean, spacious and provided all the things needed to cook a variety of meals. It is such a relief to walk into a place and find you don't have to rush out and buy milk, coffee, etc. The sleeping accommodations were excellent. A queen bed for my husband and I, and a very comfortable queen futon couch for our son and daughter-in-law. The small fenced patio area outside was a lovely place to sit and visit with family members who came to visit. We will definitely book there the next time we head to Oregon!

Like a Cottage in a Park - yet Close to Everything
Fantastic location in a quiet neighborhood with large lots and away from busy streets. It feels like a cottage inside a beautiful garden in a park. The guest house was complete in itself, with its own parking, bathroom, heat, air conditioning, kitchen, Wi-Fi, and TV. Dana and Dale were great, friendly hosts, available to answer questions, and help us as needed, but never a bother. They have a nice, friendly dog ("Bell"). They also provided a big gas grill for outdoor cooking, with a little table and chairs! This is cottage in the middle of a garden blows away any hotel - choose this beautiful guest house instead!
