Blocks from the University of Oregon with gorgeous views of the City of Eugene

Welcome to Deer Wood Manor!
Deer Wood is a beautiful spacious home on nearly an acre of forest within blocks of the University of Oregon. The home is a short walk to the University of Oregon, Hayward Field, Matthew Knight Arena, Autzen Stadium. As well too many restaurants, Wild Duck, Beppe & Gianni s, McMenamin's, Sweet Life Petite Bakery, Prince Puckers, Agate Alley, Studio One and Hey Neighbor Pizza Place- and that's just to name a few!! Located in the Fairmount area, in a beautiful neighborhood with parking and an outside eating area complete with a new barbecue. The view is most spectacular at sunset perfect for sitting and having a glass of wine with friends. The kitchen is well equipped and if we don't have it, you are welcome to ask for it! We have bought the most comfortable beds and furniture we could find. We have tried to imagine everything possible to make your stay feel like home or even better!

Deer wood manner has four beautiful bedrooms. Three of the four bedrooms are upstairs bedrooms. One king and two queens are located upstairs. Two have private bathrooms. On the lower level of the house there is a bedroom with King size bed that can be changed to two twin beds, just us know. There is a separate full bathroom with bathtub that is shared with downstairs bedroom and a separate den with flat screen television and queen sleeper sofa, perfect for kids or teenagers.

The riverside bike path is also only blocks away. Market of Choice, (provides a wonderful selection of organic and gourmet take out foods) and Hiron s Drug s and Novelties is not to be missed. Close by find easy access to several highways including Interstate I-5.

Everything is brand NEW in this lovely older home! From the new comfy beds and linens to the champagne glasses- this house has been carefully decorated with our guest's comfort in mind. If we don’t have it- we are happy to find it and provide it when possible.

The home is open and inviting with large bedrooms, a gourmet kitchen with an island, a large living room with a fireplace and lots of comfy seating. Three bedrooms are upstairs on the main floor with the kitchen and living room. On the lower level of the home you will find a private queen bedroom and full bath next door to a den with a queen sofa sleeper and large flat screen television. The lower level of the home tends to be very popular with families and groups who want to view separate television channels or wish to have more privacy.

The home has spectacular views of the University of Oregon, the Willamette River and the City of Eugene. You have access to the whole house and backyard. Great place to BBQ and enjoy the beautiful trees and flowers. large outdoor table for the covered patio. The backyard is peaceful in the evenings ~ our guests report that they really enjoy spending time barbecuing and enjoying the peace the property provides.

There is a two bedroom Apt over the garage. They have their own backyard space.

Deer Wood is also very popular with our younger visitors. In the summer months the Fairmount park opens up with its fun water feature, new sandbox and swings and slides.

Please note* our 4th bedroom is either two XL twin beds or it can be pushed together to become a King size bed, let use know which you perfect so we have it set up for you Also 5th bedroom is the private den with flat screen television. It converts beautifully to another bedroom.

We had a wonderful stay at this property! The pictures really didn’t do the house justice—it was even more spacious, comfortable, and welcoming in person. The views were beautiful, and we appreciated the thoughtful snacks waiting for us after a long day of travel. The pull-out sofa in the den worked perfectly for the kids, and they loved having their own space to relax. Kathy was a great host with clear, friendly communication throughout our stay. Overall, a great place to stay and one we’d happily return to!

Great House, Great Location

This place was really nice and the hosts were very responsive. The location is great and it is located very close to the University of Oregon, easy walk to campus. The view from the house is also nice and it is cool to see the stadium from the deck. The place is very clean and well stocked, we had everything we needed. The hosts were great and provided us a lot of good information and detail prior to our trip. Definitely recommend this house if you are planning to stay in Eugene.

Perfect Eugene location

Very well located east campus house in great neighborhood accessible to anything near the University. We’re big walkers so being so close to our favorite parks and neighborhoods was a real plus. Views of Hayward Field and Autzen Stadium from the deck were great. Definitely will return here our next trip to Eugene. Host Kathy was very responsive to questions and requests.

Beautiful property

We really enjoyed our stay in this property. The views were amazing! We felt like we were nestled in the trees, it was very private. We loved seeing the deer around the home. The house accommodated our every need. It was spacious, clean and well stocked with towels and the kitchen was probably the best stocked kitchen we’ve seen in a vacation home. House had plenty of beds and bathrooms. We were within walking distance of Hayward Field (the purpose of our stay was for a track meet). We were also within walking distance of a cute little area that had a few quaint restaurants, a pastry shop and a yummy ice cream shop. If we are ever in Eugene again, we would definitely stay here!

Great house, no hot tub

The home is gorgeous. The pictures truly do not do it justice. The listening states there is a hot tub but there isn’t a hot tub. Which was highly disappointing. The listening also doesn’t state that the property actually has two residents on it. The main house (we rented) and an auxiliary unit that was also rented at the same time. It was fine but not known ahead.

A Wonderful Place to Stay

We had a wonderful stay at this property! They had everything we needed and more, including food storage containers for leftovers which most places almost never have. The location is great--very close to campus but still very quiet. We even had a deer come into the backyard! My family and I stayed at this property during the record setting heatwave in Eugene and the A/C kept the entire house wonderfully cool. Communication with the owners was also fast and friendly. We would definitely stay here again!

PHOTOS

Absolutely loved this place! Thank you so much. The only thing is that the photos were a little misleading. There should be mention that the garage and living area above the garage is not part of the rental and the downstairs photos really didn't look anything like the images on the website. the 360 degree pics only allow of disappointment on space size. Other than that it was amazing and super secluded and peaceful

Perfect home

This home is tucked away in a lovely, quiet neighborhood.... very close to the University of Oregon. If fact, we could see Hayward Field AND Autzen Stadium from our deck. The home is well stocked with everything we needed to be comfortable... plenty of dishes and glassware, pots and pans, some spices, coffee (yes!!!), etc. All of the bedrooms were light, bright, and very comfortable. We would definitely rent this home again!

Good property, a stay with no major issues

The accuracy of the property description is not very accurate and seemed little old. Plumbing is old and had minor issues with flushing toilets and setting temperature in the shower faucet. Living room lighting was low. Other than those it was a nice house and had a stay without any major issues.

This is a lovely home.

This property is beautiful, close to the University of Oregon and Northwest Christian University. It is large enough to sleep eight and entertain additional visitors comfortably. During our stay, the youngsters gathered in the downstairs area while the adults congregated in the roomy kitchen and other common areas on the first floor. Outside lighting was an issue because those lights were on timers that did not coincide with the onset of darkness. Management acted rapidly to rectify the issue during our stay. There was some confusion about how we should dispose of refuse in outdoor receptacles. I can recommend this property wholeheartedly.

The property was wonderful.

The property was well maintained, all the rooms were nicely decorated. The living room had a nice view of the U of O and the surrounding area. The kitchen was well equipped with all the cooking tools needed to create a very nice dinner. It was a very nice place to have friends and family over for dinner. I would recommend this property to friends and family for their visit. I will be coming back soon.

About the host

Hosted by Kathy G. Robinson

Host profile image
We are parents of a past U of O graduate. We know what it is like to visit our daughter and wanting to have quality family time together, just like home. We would come up thinking we would be eating at restaurants and stay in hotels, but our daughter just wanted a home cooked meal. So we bought this amazing home in the Fairmount District of Eugene, Deer Wood Manor. It gave our family that feeling of home that we enjoy with our daughter and her friends. We now what to share Deer Wood Manor as a vacation rental to other U of O families who want to visit the Eugene area and have that same experience. We fell in Love with U of O and Eugene , we know you will too! There is so much to see and do in Oregon.

Why they chose this property

Walking distant to UO, with great views of the UO, surrounded by trees. Walking distance to restaurants, and grocery stores. Easy walk to the Campus.

What makes this property unique

The views for the perfect sunset over looking the city below. There is so much to do in Eugene, OR. Saturday Market downtown in the Summer months, farmer's markets, blocks from miles of riverside bike paths, gorgeous hikes and the McKenzie River National Recreation Trail, Skinner Butte Park, Hendrick's Park and only an hour from the gorgeous Oregon Coast. Sailing on Fern Ridge Reservoir, Kayaking or rafting the McKenzie River or exploring one of the many lakes and rivers close by, not to mention fishing! Hult Center for the Performing Arts, Museum of Natural and Cultural History,Jordan Schnitzer Museum of Art, the Matthew Knight will feed your need for the arts. Eugene has some of the best beer, wine, wineries and whiskey tasting around in the US.
