Beautiful Setting

This was the perfect place for us. It was clean, comfortable, and well stocked. We loved the deck and the views. Even on a hot day, the deck was comfortable in the afternoon shade. There is lots to do and see in the area. We would definitely stay here again.

Midweek getaway to the river!

Beautiful view as described. Goes along with traffic noise from the highway, but all the houses along this part of the river have that to deal with. Comfortable bed, my most important criteria! Everything you need for a nice getaway.

The perfect Getaway

Here's a review based on your experience:---We recently enjoyed a wonderful getaway on the McKenzie River, and it was an incredibly comfortable experience all around! The accommodations were cozy and well-appointed, making it the perfect retreat.The owner was absolutely amazing—very attentive and quick to respond to our messages, which made our stay even more enjoyable. The highlight of our trip was undoubtedly the stunning view; waking up to the peaceful riverside scenery was a dream come true. Overall, our stay was relaxing and rejuvenating. We highly recommend this spot to anyone looking for a serene escape in nature!

Just what we needed

Cabin was not only well stocked (kitchen, bedding, toiletries), but the owners definitely thought ahead and gave added luxuries (LOTS of power strips and plug ins, contact case and solution) that we weren’t expecting. Very thankful for this weekend and thankful for the owners allowing this to be open for renting. Highly recommend!

McKenzie River Cabin

This home is excellent. Located right on the beautiful McKenzie River. The property is exactly as advertised. The hosts/owners have gone above and beyond to make sure the home is stocked with everything you may need. They even have items that you may have forgotten to bring for yourself. We will definitely be returning for another stay.

Reconnecting

This place was perfect for my husband and me! It’s so peaceful and comfortable. The proximity to several of Oregon’s scenic byways was another bonus. The owners were terrific and very welcoming! If you’re looking for a quiet place to disconnect from the rat race, this cozy cottage is just the place to do it!

Our Second Stay at the Cottage on the McKenzie River

Matt answered our questions and solved a tech problem by personally responding when VRBO had a glitch. The cottage has every convenience, the wifi is great, the bed is so comfy. The super host touch of ingredients for S’more’s with wood for first a few feet from the River is such a treat! The river sounds fill the relaxing days at this A+ stay. We loved returning and would not hesitate to come back again.

Comfortable and gorgeous

The deck is lovely and the river delightful. We were thankful for the central AC when it was nearly 100 degrees days. The kitchen was well stocked as well. The driveway was a bit steep and graveled, which made it a bit more difficult to unload our car than we anticipated. Furniture comfortable, and BBQ was great as well.

Great spot on the McKenzie!

We spent an amazing few days in this home while exploring the McKenzie River. With amazing views of the river from the deck, we enjoyed unwinding here at the end of each day. And there are so many fun things to do in the area…we went fly fishing in several spots on the river, enjoyed visiting Proxy Falls, Clear Lake, Leaburg Fish Hatchery and so much more! Loved that the home was so well equipped and there was really nothing that we needed to bring with the exception of clothes and food. Matt was a great host and the communication was great! We will definitely be back for a future stay as the only negative is that our vacation had to come to an end!

Great view and accommodations

My wife and I stayed over a long weekend. The house is well cared for, clean and well decorated. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything you need to cook. Only downside was the outdoor BBQ was out but we managed. There’s an upper deck with tables and chairs and a lower area right off the river with fire ring. All with outstanding views. We brought a trailer with our motorcycles, there’s limited parking for this set up but there’s parking for two vehicles in the driveway. It can be precarious because the proximity to the road so back into the stall. We will likely be staying here again.

Perfect little get away

This little gem is only 30 minutes from Springfield making it an easy escape. My family of five (kids 20 months - 13 years) loved the experience. All three kids explored the yard, playing in the stream and finding the perfect stick. My husband and I were able to relax inside with a fire while the kids played on the extensive deck. We went out for a great dinner at Takoda's Rainbow just down the road and roasted marshmallows over a fire by the river for dessert. Our evening concluded with games they had in the house. My husband and I were able to wake up with a view of the river before the children did and enjoy coffee on the deck. They were thoughtful in every step of the way creating this VRBO from the chairs that convert for small or tall people, the convertible couch bed and even the Snicker's coffee creamers and selection of teas. The decor was nature and river themed without being cliche and the whole atmosphere was light and bright. We will definitely return!

River Delights for Three Days!

This Cozy Cottage could not have had a better location on the McKenzie! The cottage was so efficiently set up for a stay that continually revealed the next best provision of convenience. Lots of thought and effort went into this rental. The decor created such comfortable surroundings: amazing, (really!) lounging chairs, a beyond comfortable bed, windows in each room for the river scenes throughout the day and evening ( full moon special), a kitchen lacking nothing, fridge staples that were such a help preparing meals, a marvelous bucket with all the makings of S’mores- used every night, deck chairs,river chairs, wood for the fire and a starter, the genius bucket on a rope system for putting it out…yes, we could go on and on. The charging station for all devices and excellent internet service, plus TV possibilities was perfect. We usually go off during the day visiting surrounding areas. Instead, we spent our time at the house reading, listening to river sounds, seeing rafters, sun sparkles, a bit of wild life flying by. Information about the house ,river steps and water was clear and helpful. We were totally delighted throughout our stay and would come again with no hesitation.

Relaxing stay on the river

We had a fantastic weekend at this McKenzie River house. The kitchen is well stocked so we made delicious meals in. The bed is super comfortable for both of us. We felt all our needs were anticipated. The weather was sunny and mild so we did some sightseeing nearby as well. Would definitely return.

Girls' Weekend Retreat

Thank you Andrea for an incredible experience from start to finish! Your home on the river gave us a place to stay while we enjoyed a magnificent Fall weekend in the Mckenzie River. We enjoyed nearby Belknap Hot Springs and also hiked to the Blue Pool. The bed was so comfortable and cozy. The firepit down by the river gave us a place to relax and talk late into the night. We'll definitely be back!

Perfect to relax and recharge

Fall break tour of colleges in the surrounding area and I'm so glad we decided to plan one weekend to decompress on the river before heading home. Andrea was super accommodating with recommendations of where to hike (great fall weather!) and to stop for dinner on our way in. Easy to access from the main road. We needed a couple of slow mornings to chill and the house is the perfect combo of sunny and airy with comfy sofa and beds. We will definitely come back in the summer, but really enjoyed the brisk fall mornings on the deck with a warm coffee and overlooking the river in our back yard.
