All your comforts and needs are right here, whether you are traveling for comfort, business, or attending local events. Private covered hot tub, & outdoor shower. Instacart Delivers! Checkout: towels on floor, dishes washed, garbage in can! Pet Fee $25. No Hidden Fees!

Enjoy a cozy and intimate stay here at Forest Creek Cottage with our year around creek that plays nature's own relaxing music as you sit on the deck with a glass of wine or cup of coffee, or take a nap in the hammock on creek bank, or use our two bicycles to explore the neighborhood. Or, sooth those aches and pains in our private covered hot tub and outdoor shower with unlimited hot water. Best of all, no hidden or cleaning fees!

There is a $25 pet fee (dogs only). This covers two (2) pets (dogs) under 35lbs each for the entire stay, this includes any ESA pets. Any more than 2 pets (dogs) changes the fees to $100 per pet (dog), as the house is simply too small for more than 2 pets (dogs). If you have not paid this in your reservation and you are bringing a pet, we would greatly appreciate that you will take care of it prior to your arrival.

If you need a quiet location in a small but charming cottage with high speed Wi-Fi to work remotely so that you can fish/hike/river raft/bicycle/nap in the afternoons, then we just might be a perfect fit for each other. Relax in the shade from the majestic trees and cool breeze from the creek.

We are the perfect gateway location to everything outdoors up the river for hiking, biking, kayaking, rafting, fishing and more. We are also just a short trip back in to town for amazing restaurants and events such as Oregon Ducks sports, or concerts at the Mathew Knight Arena.

We have hi-speed internet for streaming your favorite shows and hosting video conference calls. The sleeping arrangements are two full size beds (one futon couch and one standard bed). Cooking is done on a 2 burner hot plate, microwave, toaster, and BBQ grill. Full bathroom with hot shower is just perfect after your all day outdoor adventures.

Just come and have a relaxing, no worries, chillaxing time at our cottage. Yes, it is small, but it is also cozy and is all kinds of just perfect for your stay.

Our checkout procedures: put the towels on the bathroom floor, leave the washed dishes on the drying rack, take the garbage outside to the can (prevents odor build up for next guests)= no cleaning fee.

Instacart delivers groceries right to the door step! Contact us to see if we can receive your delivery before you arrive so that you can start relaxing the moment you get here.

We try to empty, clean, and refill the hot tub every two weeks or so. We refill the hot tub with our unlimited hot water heater, so the water temp is always ready for your visit.

As we are a country/rural location, we are continually working to keep mice/rats off of the property. This means that we regularly place poison blocks in various places, generally under the trailer and decks. While they are listed as pet safe and child safe, we recommend that you keep your pets and small children from these areas and monitor them while in the yard area.

This is in a rural setting with plenty of parking. In fact, parking is inside the private fenced area of the cottage. We are less than a mile from the main Highway 126, offering plenty of peaceful relaxation.

I live in the main house on the other side of the property. Messaging through Air BnB app is an excellent way to reach me, or you can simply knock on the door if we are home.

Quiet retired folk neighborhood. Several years ago a golf course was built one block over and the houses that were built to line the edge of the course were built as well. The golf course has since shut down, but the little community of 40+ houses still remains and is very quiet with virtually no traffic.

Parking is free and on site in the fenced in private area. You will need a car to get to our location and to get to nearby attractions.

You will likely want to stop at the Albertson's grocery store near the McDonalds in Springfield before heading up the river as that is the nearest full service grocery store. Halfway between there and our cottage, is a Dollar General store with limited food offerings. There are 4 restaurants with in 10 minutes from the cottage and an amazing one called Takodas just 30 minutes up the river from us. There are 3 gas stations with in 10 minutes as well.

You will enjoy a private fenced area all to yourself. The rest of the property is private and not for guest use. Our dogs are kept confined to the grass areas by an underground electronic fence. By staying off all grass areas you will prevent our dogs from experiencing elevated anxiety and stress.

During your stay, you can book a rafting trip, guided fishing trip, go hiking, kayaking, fishing, see waterfalls, visit a fish hatchery, soak in the Belknap hot springs, and more. Ask us for more advice for activities.
This tiny home cottage is separate and private from the rest of our property and home. Comes with it's own fenced in area for privacy.

Your pet must be able to ignore them and not cause a disturbance. Your pet is to be in your presence at all times and to never be left alone on the property. Pets are subject to a modest fee for additional cleaning. Additionally, while the cottage has a fence on 3 sides of the property and a creek on the 4th side, the area is not escape proof for protection as they could easily jump over the creek and enter the roadway. Your judgement is required to determine if the area is safe for your pet. Guests will be responsible for any scratches and damages from the pet.

Thank you for letting us stay at your place. It was such a nice area and your whole property was beautiful. Loved the bikes. Sorry for not being able to open the door. I wasn’t familiar with the lock. The light didn’t turn on until I touched the screen and by that time I was hitting a number which made the code invalid. Anyhow, we had a great time .thank you

Great option 30 min outside Eugene!
We stayed here for the UofO graduation and it was a perfect option for wanting something quiet and comfortable. The hot tub, outdoor shower, and snack basket were unexpectedly nice, and the walk we took along the road was beautiful and peaceful.

This is an absolutely stunning place to stay! We were looking for a peaceful place to stay for the night so I could prepare for spinal surgery the next day and this was perfect. The host was very polite as well! We spent most of our time just relaxing in the private hot tub and enjoying the sounds from the little creek that runs in front. My surgery being rescheduled was a blessing because it gave us a few extra hours in what felt like heaven! Thank you for sharing your beautiful place with us!!

An absolutely wonderful cozy cottage with fantastic amenities and a very relaxing experience. Our favorite part of the experience was the creek that ran next to the front door, my wife and I spent some time sitting next to it and enjoying the lovely lights that ran throughout the space. Could not recommend enough!

We enjoyed our stay in the cutest tiny house. We were exhausted from our travels we napped and got in the hot tub at night. It was quiet and relaxing. In the morning we enjoyed the lovely muffins and coffee. The host has really put in a lot of work on this property. I will recommend to anyone who wants to stay close the hot springs. This place was convenient.

cozy Oregon retreat!
Our stay was so relaxing! The property was in pristine condition with so many neat amenities and beautiful scenery around - there wasn’t a detail missed! They even provided a pack n play for our year old and had it set up before our arrival. We spent most of our days in Eugene for a national track meet in Eugene and we loved being a little bit further away and enjoying this beautiful place. My oldest son loved the hot tub and playing outside in the open space. The property owners are also incredibly nice - loved getting to chat with Shawn! We are hoping to book here again for return trips to Oregon.

I couldn’t have asked for anything more from this stay! The owners are so thoughtful, and every touch that they’ve put around this little gem. I am a mom of two little kids and I drove down from Washington for a memorial in Eugene. So I used that opportunity to rest for four nights with my pup, and I had everything I needed. Open the French doors and hear the creek, walk around the corner to a perfect hot tub and rinse off in the outdoor shower. Have a glass of wine on the porch. I stocked up on groceries at Trader Joe’s and that was perfect for me. The WiFi works fantastic too. There is an AC unit in the home, but I did pack a fan to aim onto me and that was great for sleeping. So much better than a hotel and I would certainly stay there again if I were in the area. Thank you for the little oasis!

Relaxing Getaway
We loved our 3 night stay in this adorable tiny home. The owners thought of everything. We especially enjoyed all of the outdoor amenities; the firepit, hot tub and outdoor shower as well as the string of lights. Unfortunately, we overbooked ourselves and were way too busy and didn't get time to enjoy the hammock. The sound of the stream was so nice to listen to while we ate dinner on the deck. Inside was just as lovely, but we split up and one of us slept on the futon and the other on the bed (which worked out just fine). The whole place was VERY CLEAN. Not sure if there was an A/C unit (we couldn't find one), so we slept with the windows open. Might be a nice touch to add a few games or cards/dice for guests to enjoy (since we forgot to pack some). One final comment - the neighborhood is absolutely beautiful as well. So nice to walk and if you like to fish, I would think you could walk and fish the river which is super close by.
