A Wonderful Place to Stay!
We stayed 3 nights and wish we could have stayed longer. Such a wonderful place to stay! Every room was super clean, and the home had everything we needed and more. We didn't have a chance to use the kitchen, but it's stocked with everything you could think of to make any meal. Highly recommend this lovely place to stay in Eugene!

Perfect cozy place
This house is nestled in a suburban neighborhood of beautiful homes. The hosts were exceptional and answered our questions immediately. We found the house had everything we needed and were grateful for a washer and dryer. It was a wet weekend for our family racing on Dexter Lake. The location is minutes from convenient shops and U if O campus. When the weather is nice, the walk around the neighborhood is amazing.

Wonderful Campus Location
We had a wonderful stay! Enjoyed some close spots to eat and convenient to campus but out of the college feel. Our family of 4 (all adults) had enough room to move around and the property was well stocked with everything we needed.

Beautiful home, great host and neighborhood.
This beautiful home is in an awesome neighborhood within walking distance to the university. A short walk through the neighborhood takes you to a beautiful park full of deer. The house has everything you need and has incredibly comfortable beds. The host has done an amazing job to make sure you have everything you need.

Perfect for a weekend stay. Very happy colorful decor and cozy bedrooms. There are quite a few steps if mobility is an issue but it was a great place for us to have as a home base in Eugene.

My daughter and I were in town to visit the University of Oregon and the place was 100% perfect. Not only was it ideally located, had everyting we needed, the owner was easy to contact, it was easy to check in and was spotless. We felt like we were at home from the moment we walked in. I highly recommend staying here.

Home base while watching University golf tournament
We were generally away from the property from early morning to early evening. For the evening and night time, everything suited us well. Beds were comfortable and living space was cozy. Kitchen was well equipped. This small home is surrounded by other large homes, and therefore, views are confined. If we were in the space for more of our day, we would have found this to be a difficult limitation. Be prepared to navigate a full set of outdoor stairs with your luggage. Also, keep in mind that bedrooms are upstairs while the bathroom is on the main level. Excellent communication with the host.

Little Pink House is a Great Find
What was most important to us was the cleanliness and it far exceeded our expectations. The rental was fully equipped, especially with nice white towels. The neighborhood was perfect and the property owner was as well. It was an overall pleasure to be a guest at the Little Pink House. Thank you, Carmen Martinez

A comforting get away. . .
The unit was cozy and private but still close to things my friend and wanted to see and do. The access to Hendrick's Park was great. We walked by the U of O campus and neighborhood and enjoyed the quiet space of the unit while catching up on each other's lives.

Perfect landing for UofO
It seems the whole of Eugene stands behind their Ducks. Hosts were pumped that my son and I were visiting the university. Lovely property. Brilliantly located. Essential oils to diffuse. Shower products provided. Comfy beds. If my son chooses UofO, I envision us staying here again and again and again.

Great stay
We really enjoyed our stay at the property. Quiet location close to the University of Oregon, nice layout to the house, and good restaurants and a small market within an easy walking distance. Lara was wonderful to work with while we were there. Friendly and very quick to reply to a call. One tip if renting, don't rely on Google Maps to find the property. The property is not where you would expect to find if following the street addresses on Sunset. Instead, when turning onto Sunset from Fairmont, access the property by turning into the first alley on the right and then driving up to the end of the alley. You'll then see a small sign on the right for the stairs to the house. This is where you can park. Overall, wonderful stay, and we would stay again.
