Cozy home with a great view/location

We stayed for a hockey tournament and had plenty of room for our family and dogs. The home was cozy and quiet. The location was super cute, next to a park with a little wetland behind it with ducks. The view from the living room was perfect.

Very comfortable and private

Quiet, clean, well supplied and nicely decorated Mid-century home. We loved the vintage, original characteristics and the beautiful landscaping. Access to the Willamalane Park and greenbelt are a huge bonus. The area is so quiet at night. Along with comfortable beds it is a very restful place.

Amazing - Stay the 1st week in April and see the flowering tree!

We stayed the first week of April and the pink/white flowering tree in the center of the backyard was shedding leaves and it was magical! Great place for a small intimate 10 person wedding with the most beautiful scenery if its planned right. WOW so special and lovely. My mom and I had a wonderful time. 10/10

Peaceful relaxing home

As you enter the front door, your eyes are immediately drawn to the floor to ceiling windows on the other side of the room - that look out into an amazingly beautiful back yard. This place was perfect for our 3 generations of family (grandma, parents, siblings). Large rooms, comfortable beds, comfortable furniture to lounge on, plenty of linens, good shower water pressure, great kitchen - and Kelly was so kind to provide snacks, coffee, and amenities. Safe neighborhood, plenty of parking, great park behind the house to walk, beautiful deck to sit outside and enjoy the scenery. The photos show accurately of what the place is like. Kelly was always incredibly responsive and wonderful to correspond with. We loved our stay and I highly recommend Kelly's place to anyone looking for a place within the Springfield/Eugene area. We look forward to coming back again sometime. Great house!

The house was very welcoming and cozy. It felt like a home away from home. It also had a good amount of kitchen items for cooking which was a big thing for us, and it made it easier to cook rather than go out to eat. I highly recommend and will definitely utilize this property in the future for more trips! Lastly the view from the back porch was beautiful, and was perfect to destress and unwind or great for morning coffee!
