Great location

Extremely nice place with great amenities, and was super clean. The deck in the backyard is perfect for an early cup of coffee, or a late afternoon glass of wine. Kitchen is well equipped for those who wish to prepare their own meals. We appreciated the welcome sign and the snacks! :-) Really a lovely place!

Charming four bedroom in McMinnville

I have to say that after all of my years of renting through VRBO, this house was probably my favorite. A beautifully renovated older cottage in McMinnville with spacious bedrooms and common areas. Also had a nice outside dining space. Kitchen was extremely well equipped and the home was well stocked with supplies (paper products, coffee, soap, trashbags etc.). This was greatly appreciated as we flew in from the east coast. I would rent this house again for sure!

Great stay!

This was a perfect spot for 6 of us coming into town for a wedding! It was a great and safe spot. The house was clean and ready for us. When we did have a few questions, the owners got back to us right away!

Beautiful house, good location

Everything in the house was in new/pristine condition. Was an easy walk of a little less than a mile to downtown McMinnville and an easy drive to all kinds of wineries, which is why we were visiting.

We had a fun stay at this cute house. Close to historic downtown, a ten minute walk. Centrally located for wine tasting and a day trip the coast. The hosts made sure we had everything necessary for a comfortable stay. I would stay here again.

Beautiful Home, walkable to downtown McMinnville.

We loved staying at this home for our wine country trip. It was very clean, convenient, charming, and comfortable. Everything in updated and decorated amazingly. We walked to 3rd Ave in McMinnville each night (about 15 min) and had a great experience eating and shopping downtown. We loved the smell of the flowering bushes outside our door. Would absolutely stay again next time we're in town.

As advertised, truly a Happy House.

As a somewhat new Vrbo family, I really did not know what to expect. The booking of the property was easy and the contract was painless. The owners communicated with me as needed and where very friendly. The Happy House was clean and modern. I appreciated the fact there was tin foil and plastic bags available for storing leftovers. The highlight of the stay was Friday night. After a 7 hr trip, everyone was hungry and in need of some good wine. We got pizza to go and enjoyed the back deck and told stories as a family. Priceless..... Thank you. Brad

Happy house

From the moment we walked in the house we were happy with our choice. It is a very bright and clean house with room to spread out for the family. We loved the back yard too as we enjoyed a dinner outside on the deck. The hummingbird show and the air show were definitely bonuses : ) Thank you for a wonderful stay! We will be back!!!
