Historic Cottage - Walk to Downtown & Trails

Step into a restored 1875 Victorian cottage just a short walk from city centre Oregon, IL. This thoughtfully decorated home creates a warm, inviting escape with vintage charm. Relax on the porch, explore nearby nature, or enjoy local restaurants, a brewery, shops, and scenic views. Ideal for couples, solo travellers, small groups, and those visiting for work or longer stays near Woods, Etnyre, the Byron plants, and KSB Hospital. The cottage was also used as a filming location for multiple productions!

I made a big mistake when booking. Bronwyn was great and helped me get it sorted. We loved staying at the cottage. Loved the old charm and furnishings. We're just a family of 3 so it was perfect. We could spend time together and not have to go to separate hotel rooms. It felt more like home..

I had a wonderful stay in a quiet peaceful neighborhood. Everything needed for an extended stay was provided. My host was attentive and helpful and responded in a timely manner. I stayed several weeks and was very comfortable everything worked properly. I would definitely stay again and would recommend this place to anyone visiting the area. You won’t be disappointed.

Loved the old charm, very spacious and clean. The big desk was great for work. It snowed quite a bit, lots to shovel, plow came but was later in afternoon. Bathroom could use a remodel but clean. Basement was very clean for laundry. Great stay overall.

We stayed for 5 days. Place was very clean and well stocked with everything you would need for a short stay. The beds were comfy and the house was cozy warm on what were the coldest days of the winter. Great neighborhood. Very quite. Highly recommend and will stay again when back in town.

Wedding weekend ❤️

This home is a charming, tasteful and comfortable vacation place and I could not have been happier with our choice. We were in Oregon for my son’s wedding at White Pines and I stayed with my son, daughter, son-in-law and granddaughter and we all loved it.

This property is in a quiet neighborhood. It is a charming little house. The beds were very comfortable and that is always very important. Not many hotels in this area and it was near where I wanted to visit family so I did not have to drive very far to visit. The owners were very responsive when we needed any kind of assistance. We will surely stay here again!

What an adorable house. The host was super inviting and responded quickly to my questions. The kitchen was well stocked with everything I needed. The bedrooms were super cute. I liked the night lights scattered around the house. It made getting up in the middle of the night to use the restroom easier. I am a book reader and so when I was at the house I spent most of my time in the comfortable chair in the library/study. This is an older home that is well maintained. I liked that the owner used furnishings that reflected that time period. The house was like a museum with so many interesting things to look at. There was plenty to do at the house. The host provided books, games, television, VCR movies and even a record player. I did not get to use the outdoor screened in porch, but I thought it looked very comfortable and inviting. Everything was super clean. I felt at home. The neighborhood is very quiet and safe. I will definitely stay there again if we are back in the area and it is available! It was truly an honor to stay in this wonderful house!!

This is almost the favorite place I have ever stayed at. The owner was very helpful. I was so comfortable and peaceful. All the details made the house so very special. Just all the special little touches down tothe doilies. The diverse library, the sunroom, the screened in room. The yard was so beautiful with all the hostas and old growth trees. I hope to come back again.

Fabulous!

My sister lives nearby in a very small house, so we’re all congregated at this vrbo. It was wonderful! The home was so well stocked - were grilled out, played cards and trivial pursuit and had a great time. The home was clean. There was coffee, oil for cooking, spices, pans…everything! We ran out of propane and they were prepared with a spare. I can’t recommend highly enough!

Beautiful and convenient place to stay

Everything was great. The only problem we had was the lock on the back door. We could not get the code to work. It wasn’t a problem since the front door worked but wanted to let you know. It might be a battery or something simple as we didn’t do anything differently than the front door and it worked without problem. Thanks!
