Great location in John Day! The house, back patio and spacious yard was perfect for our 7 person group. Kitchen well stocked, comfortable beds and great views. Jim was quick to respond. We explored the nearby National Forests with our Jeeps and I enjoyed a good cardio walk from the house up to the plateau. Will recommend to others .

Relaxing retreat

This house is in a great location, close to restaurants, etc., but up & away from traffic. It was a great jump off point for our exploration. Comfortable beds, well appointed kitchen, beautiful view from the deck. Very relaxing space.

I stayed here with a group of two and also a group of seven, and it is great for both. The views from the spacious living room are spectacular, especially the morning sunrise in the East.

The view of John Day and the valley is beautiful. The yard and porches were well kept and we all had a great time playing horse shoes and hanging outside. The house is well stocked don’t over shop like I did! We would stay here again. Five stars!

Annual Cousin Get Together

This was our second time renting this home. The house is great for large groups and the open floor plan is great for visiting, playing games, and shared meals. The property is beautiful and the views gorgeous. The owner is great he even came out to handle a wasp problem for us. Looking forward to next year!
