Unique, dog-friendly woodland cabin w/ a detached studio, on the McKenzie River!

Location and views were outstanding. House well laid out and well equipped. However, some small improvements are needed. Microwave and oven are greatly outdated (knob on oven was missing and we needed pliers to operate it). The separate studio had a strong odor of gasoline at the base of the stairs. Otherwise it was a lovely house in a quiet, serene riverside location, and our family reunion was all the better for it.

Our little family (hubby and I and 2 boys) were sad to leave after our five day stay. The cabin is well appointed and the pictures are accurate. It's situated on a beautiful section of the McKenzie river. There is a good current, but water is shallow, and no rapids. We put our chairs in the water, or waded over to the little island across the way. Although the property can sleep 12 with the added studio above garage, I think that would be too crowded. It felt plenty spacious for the four of us, and maybe one more family up to 4 would be ok. Rating this 4 stars instead of five for a couple of MINOR issues. Washer and dryer were still full of linens when we got there, so I folded them up and put away. And some kitchen items usually provided were missing (only 2 coffee filters for the week). So we bought a few things to leave for the next guests. We would defiantly stay here again, and next time bring friends to share in the fun! Thank you!

Our group of 9 absolutely loved this house. It was clean, comfortable, and located in the most perfect location. The sound of the rapids from the river were the perfect noise to fall asleep and wake up to. The fire pit just feet from the river was just about as close to perfect as you can get. We took advantage of the hammock next to the river every chance we got. We even braved the cold water on a hot 95 degree afternoon and saw lots of rafters go by, watched wildlife, and enjoyed the scenery. With a group of 9 it was great that there was a pantry just off the kitchen for extra storage as we had loads of food for the week. Even the drive up to the house was exquisite with the close trees and full forest all around. The house was located near so much; the McKenzie Pass, Clear Lake, whitewater rafting opportunities, various waterfalls, hot springs, Eugene, and so much more. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and hope to be back again some day.

The cabin was everything we hoped for! Beautiful setting along the McKenzie River. Very clean accommodations. Zia, the lead housekeeper thought of every detail for us. Zia is terrific!

First off, the house was clean. Everything we needed was provided from kitchen to bathroom to fire pit. Furnishings were comfortable and fit the style of the house perfectly. The views out the front of the house from morning to night were spectacular. Second, the location was perfect. Close to great fishing, beautiful lakes and water falls, huge trees even right next to the house, a year round Christmas Store near by, pretty good pizza near by for that last night you don't want to cook, and the Oregon coast is a pleasant day trip away along with the Oregon Coast Aquarium, and if you don't want to go anywhere, you're already right next to the river to begin with. The ONLY 2 things to watch out for is: 1, Once you get there, time will move sooooo fast. Your last day comes in just a blink. 2, We did have a bit of trouble finding food that we forgot to bring when looking in the local stores. A lot of the stuff we looked at was MONTHS past the expiration date on the various packages. We saw one that was over a year! I'm sure this isn't the case in the bigger cities further away and this has NOTHING to do with the house or its service. Just plan accordingly in that aspect.<br />

All in all, I want to go back tomorrow!!
