We stayed 2 nights at the Penthouse and it was just perfect. The home is clean, nicely decorated, and close to town. We walked to town more than once. We have family in Ashland and this is where we will stay when we return.

Ashland Gem

The Helman Street Penthouse was perfect for our girlfriend's retreat. The home is clean, beautifully decorated and had all the necessary amenities. We were able to walk to all the shops, restaurants and Shakespeare plays. I definitely would recommend staying here during your visit to Ashland.

Relaxing penthouse experience

A great girlfriend getaway option. Spacious, clean, comfortable and the rooftop deck was perfect for morning coffee, afternoon reading and happy hours. Split bedrooms and a nice layout and fully equipped kitchen are really lovely. Highly recommend!

Girls trip

My friends and I had a wonderful stay. The location is perfect to walk everywhere. We went into town to shop, eat, see Shakespeare. We enjoyed high tea and a concert in the park. The house was perfect. There were three of us and we had everything we needed for a great stay. There is no question we would stay again. Thank you for taking such great care of us. We loved your home

Beautiful and comfortable apartment

We had a wonderful stay at Kristin’s penthouse apartment. Beautifully decorated and the kitchen as well stocked with everything you need for meal preparation. Plenty of room to relax on comfortable furniture and we especially enjoyed dining on the rooftop deck. Easy walking distance to downtown Ashland and the Oregon Shakespeare Festival. One of our best VRBO experiences.

An excellent spot in Ashland

This large, well-appointed rental was a great spot for a long weekend visiting the Oregon Shakespeare Festival and taking advantage of the outdoor activities in and around Ashland. The two bedrooms are on separate ends of the unit and the large kitchen is very well appointed. We made liberal use of the outdoor dining area and grill. The location is perfect, just outside the downtown core, a 10 to 15 minute walk to the theatres and restaurants. Highly recommended!

Lovely time Kristen! Center view window shade doesn't lower ... seems stuck and I didn't want to work it out (engineer in me!!). Otherwise - Wonderful stay. I recognized your name from the family construction company in Ashland. Small world indeed. I'll be back! Catherine Mater

Can we give 6 Stars? A Wonderful Stay.

Our second stay at Kristin's lovely Penthouse with a View was just as wonderful as our first. Everything about this stay is top notch. Kristin is easy and communicates extremely well. The unit is spotless and clever, and decorated beyond most short stay units. It is comprised of a large master bedroom with very large bath and a second - still large 2nd BR. The accompanying bath is not technically en-suite, but is as close to being so as can be, around a corner and down a small hallway. Two couples feel very private. Walking distance to OSF and downtown restaurants, and Lithia Park. It's a real pleasure to arrive, park, and not use the car again until we head home. This was our second stay...it will not be our last.

We have stayed in a few different places in Ashland. This place was the best. It was immaculate, comfortable and beautiful..an easy walk to the coop, to theaters and to restaurants and cafes. The owner provided complete details for arrival and departure…would gladly stay here again.

Great penthouse!

This is a lovely place to stay, particularly for two couples who appreciate comfortable bedrooms/baths and well-appointed and spacious living spaces. Even in October, we enjoyed having our breakfasts out on the deck. Since we were in Ashland to see plays, it was great being just a short walk away from the theaters. We would definitely stay here again!

Great place close to downtown.

Super clean, super comfy. We loved being able to use the garage door opener while we stayed. . The house is upstairs and they have a great second floor patio. Nice laundry machines. Nice linens and beds. Beautiful hardware and lighting throughout the house. It’s very close to downtown. It was a great place to stay while dropping off our son for school at SOU. I can’t think of anything that wasn’t readily available. Great house.

SPECTACULAR. JUST SPECTACULAR.

First, the host is great. Excellent communication and easy to work with! That sets the stage for a great visit. The penthouse is in an ideal location, only a few easy walking blocks from downtown and OSF. Parked the car and left it there the entire visit. Layout of the unit is ideal for two couples, with bedrooms on opposite sides of the living room/kitchen. The rooftop deck is great, and it even has a one car garage! Rarely have we rented a vacation home so well put together, or so well decorated. Care has been given to the tiniest details; we found fresh half & half and coffee waiting in the fridge! Beds are comfortable, towels are plush and the entire experience was outstanding. TVs are high quality (but, we only used it to look at some vacation photos...didn't need TV with live theatre just around the corner). We are two couples who come to Ashland for OSF and we'll definitely stay here again.

FABULOUS PROPERTY

One of the nicest VRBO visits we have had. The unit was sparkling clean, with lots of towels, soaps, etc. Communication with the owner, Kristin, was quick and easy. The unit is the top floor of a 2 story building. The offices downstairs were totally quiet, and we had 100% privacy. Huge master bedroom and master bath, nice second bedroom and second bath, beautifully equipped kitchen, very comfortable living and dining space, and a great outside deck with sunshade and gas grill. Thankfully, the unit is air conditioned, and it was totally comfortable in 100 degree heat. Located just a five minute walk from downtown, it is a perfect destination. When we return to Ashland, this will be our first choice!

Helman townhome

Beautiful top floor townhome, extremely spacious and filled with natural light throughout. Location is excellent, less than ten minute walk to the heart of Ashland. Nicely furnished. Great views throughout. Huge walk in closets, huge master bath with heated floor. Very impressive collection of books to enjoy. Floor plan very well set up with the two bedrooms at opposite ends of the layout. Even though close to Ashland (and its many excellent restaurants), many dinners can be and were spent on balcony with the amazing views. We will definitely be back! Kristin was very responsive.

I will definitely be returning! :)

I loved everything about this property. The house is beautiful and filled with light. It has been well taken care of. All the amenities I could ask for. The neighborhood was peaceful (minus one train), and in an excellent location close to town, but not too close. The owner was very flexible regarding check-in time, and I walked into delicious chocolate. I didn't want to leave! :) Another stay is in my future. This property and property owner experience went beyond my expectations!
