First of all, the house and property are stunning. Six of us stayed on our annual trip to play in a 3 day golf tournament nearby and this provided more than enough for our needs. It was fun just exploring the house and taking in the artistic designs and decorative splendor of each themed room.The resplendent grounds were alive with geese, ducks, and other wildlife which added to the serenity and peacefulness not found in other luxury rentals. We all commented on how enjoyable it was to watch the waterfowl walking in single file from different directions at feeding time and realizing we hadn't smiled that much for quite some time.The amenities available for guests are far greater than any hotel or rental house I have ever stayed in. Even though we weren't at the house for much of the day, it was easy to wind down and relax when we were. Everything was clean from the rooms, showers, countertops, dishware, coffee pot, etc. unlike many rentals.Overall, one could not go wrong if they are looking for a getaway that offers so much and less than 15 minutes from town. Hope to stay again!

Paradise in the country!

My husband and I were very impressed with Colleen and her husband's idyllic property. They were very attentive and opened their home to us like family. We particularly loved the geese and ducks. It was very well situated to enjoy wine tasting in the Williamette Valley. We will definitely return!

Paradise in Salem - You will not be disappointed

Colleen’s property is absolutely gorgeous and spacious. We loved our gorgeous bedrooms which were themed after her NYT’s best-selling novels. Our family especially enjoyed the large bonus family room where we could hang out with lots of space: perfect for gathering; playing games (including PacMan), watching tv, eating breakfast, etc. The choice of snacks, coffee, and various breakfast items/treats were abundant and much appreciated for our family with varying snack and breakfast preferences. We loved that there was a dining table and huge comfortable couch. You will literally melt into the couch in the bonus family room! The property is gorgeous, green, lush, and great for short walks. A neat added bonus is the mini fridge at the front door for any last minute drinks on the go for local road-trips and site seeing. Colleen is the perfect hostess and she encouraged us to use the large media room and other areas of her gorgeous house. Colleen baked homemade brownies for us and welcomed us to her sanctuary as if we a member of her family. While we didn’t have time, you can book a tea party with Colleen, and we could tell that based on our stay, you will not be disappointed with the attention to details and food. A tea party was booked for the day that we left and the set up looked exquisite. Colleen’s property is a short 10 minute drive to Salem’s city center and we were within an hour’s drive to sites in Portland, and approximately an hour and 15 minute drive to Eugene. The Willamette win country and coast are great day trips too! We would gladly stay here again on our next trip to the area.

Quiet , Clean and Comfortable

Great spot to stay while visiting grandkids. They even came over to see the baby ducks and geese in the pond. After helping with birthday parties, it was great to have my quiet little place to retire at night. Owner was very nice and helpful. She gave me a nice tour around when I arrived.
