Relax and revive in this artistic 'cabin' with wonderful views of historic Glenn Creek from every room. An architectural dream, you enter this lodge style home through a pivoting hobbit style front door with hardware from the 1800's. Highlights of this original home include a gourmet kitchen with labradorite granite counters, 800 year old juniper tree spiral stair case, huge beams and exposed rafters, a sauna, and a romantic wood stove. Also each upstairs bedroom has a hanging bed with three 8 foot skylights above for indoor star gazing. Original artworks from local artists are throughout the home. Many pleasantries await the curious such as embedded fossils in the cracked mud walls.Nestled amongst towering fir and cedar trees, with windows everywhere, you'll feel and see nature's presence. This home site has a remarkably peaceful way about it. Recently featured in Southern Oregon Magazine and KCBY 11 TV's ~In Focus~ 'Goin' Green' and Oregon's Solar Home Tour, this is a unique 'green' home. This home was built with environmentally friendly materials. Building with little impact on the surroundings was very important to us during construction. The myrtle hardwood floor in the kitchen and living room was milled on site which came from trees that stood where the house is now. Same story for the beautiful maple flooring in the ½ bath. All of the large beams and fir flooring came from two 4' thick 104 year old douglas fir trees which also stood and were milled where the house is now. The fir trees sprouted after the last forest fire that came through the canyon. One of our neighbors fell a sixty five year old redwood that was over six feet thick! We used some of it as a wonderful wainscot paneling throughout the house. All of the finishes used are no or low VOC. Surrounding the house is native vegetation, huge trees and a few herbs and spices for cooking. You'll enjoy the fully equipped kitchen with labradorite granite counters. The kitchen island has a new five burner gas stove with a convection oven and warming oven. The island has plenty of granite and wood counter space. Hanging from the exhaust hood are stainless, non-stick, and cast iron cookware. We also provide shade grown fair trade coffee and a grinder, espresso machine, coffee maker, toaster, microwave, utensils, chef knives, glasses and frosty cocktail glasses in the freezer. The dining room table has a river view and can seat six comfortably. There is also seating for three at the island bar. From the kitchen you can visit with the folks in the living room thanks to the open floor plan. Beside the wood stove are two chairs and the futon couch with reading lamp. A CD changer, TV with a DVD player and VHS machine are in the downstairs bedroom. Bring your favorite videos or browse our selection of movies. The property has 150 feet of creek frontage with great views of Glenn creek, the forest and distant cliffs. Enjoy wildlife viewing with River Dippers, Chipmunks, Kingfishers, Great Blue Herons, Screech Owls, Pileated Wood Peckers, Elk, an occasional Bald Eagle or River Otter and other wildlife from the house and back deck. Build a fire and have lunch on the nearby picnic table and benches.

Directions we're clear, the gate was easy to locate and access was smooth! We had a birthday party and everyone was able to make their own pizza in the earthenware stove! It was nice having easy access to creature comforts with the tent platforms, nearby composing toilet and running water. I love the canopy with the bamboo on one side and the linden trees along the other. My favorite part of this location is listening to the wind in the leaves 🍃 We'll definitely be back!

Pulling up I was a bit hesitant about the area, but we found I nice little spot,(I’m sure if there were more people coming to camp they would have got our spot which to me was the best for tent camping, we had the whole place to ourselves. First day walked to the falls & pick our spot in this secluded little sand beach with a level place to walk out to the deepest part of the river, we took our inner tubes & my daughter tooled around rock hunting. We enjoyed our stay until it started raining, we tried to out stay the rain but that wasn’t happening so we packed up. The compost toilet was a new thing for us & wasn’t too bad, better than just a hole in the ground where flys & bees buz around. My only complaint was I think it should have been dumped the next day. We enjoyed our stay & found out we do pretty good when off the grid (no water, phone service, or shower

Second stay here, perfect for what we needed. Just a quick couple days near Eugene, great access to town. Lovely drive out, clean and spacious site, very accommodating and attentive host! Friendly, but gives plenty of space to enjoy the quiet. 10/10 would stay again. If you decide to book this site and stay on site throughout the day, you will need to bring shade. We were gone both days throughout the day, so was not a problem for us, but does heat up around 10am. Very quiet and peaceful area! Great views of sunrises and moonrises!

This was our first camp spot on our long road trip around Washington and Oregon. It was a nice quiet location with a river across the road. The spots were clean and spaced far enough apart and felt private. I would recommend this site as a great middle spot for exploring the surrounding areas like the Blue Pool, Umpqua Hot springs and many more beautiful nature sites.

Weekend Trip to Peaceful Retreat

You'll Love It. Follow the exact Directions. As soon as we arrived we looked around going "wait this is the address but where are the signs and camp spots" June doesn't have signs up for a reason, for this to feel like you are literally on the land camping out, without signs & markers to make it more realistic to the wild, the Tanks she mentions are small older brown propane tanks in the grass look for those, no markers because it's Open Camping! Meaning yes you paid you'll have a spot but pick anyone you want! This again for a more real wild feel. Just 30 steps out her drive you'll find a small goat trail down to the most beautiful fairyland by the water - 5 mins drive to the left Wildwood Falls, keep driving and you'll find hundreds of your own private river spots. We stayed the entire time, met some friendly neighbors floated the small rapids found amazing rocks and completely cooked ourselves. The night was quiet and safe be some dog howls and a Goodnight from the neighboring donkey. We met June and Mr Beau her dog, she was absolutely so kind and sweet just as Beau was. From the Small safe private spots to the big open RV spots, two tent toilets with everything you'd need *bring a hand fan it's hotter than hell in the tents* Internet connection by the toilets Incase of emergencies, the river on all sides plus waterfalls, the most beautiful land to the kind and welcoming June and Beau! We will Absolutely Be back!!! Thank you so much June! We can't wait 🩵

Weekend Trip to Hilltop acres

Such a thoughtfully designed tiny home! We had everything we needed for a comfortable weekend. The farm fresh eggs were SO delicious! We saw a deer roam right by the window in the morning; what a treat. Would definitely recommend staying here when around the Eugene area!
