About the host

Host profile image
In 2005 I took a beautiful trip to Italy. I stayed in my first vacation rental in Rome and I loved everything about it! The next year we went to Greece and stayed in vacation rentals the entire trip~ again it was a wonderful experience. In 2008 after a trip to Germany I came home and decided to turn our newly built Little Pink House into a vacation rental by owner. Since June 6th 2008 I have been welcoming world travelers, U of O visiting professors and parents of University of Oregon students. Some guests come and go and some become friends for life...it's always been a joy!
Since opening the Little Pink House I have stayed in vacation rental properties in 30 countries and I have added five other vacation rental properties to my list of beautiful places in Oregon to visit.

Why they chose this property

Why our property? That is a great question given the inventory in Eugene. When I first opened my doors as a vacation rental we were the 5th property! Now there are hundreds. If you are looking for a clean little house in a beautiful location with a fantastic price tag and owners who love to travel and also love hosting then take a look at the Little Pink House! We love our return guests and hope to soon be 100% word of mouth!

What makes this property unique

To be so close to the University of Oregon but to also be away from it all...
