About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire cabin to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

☯ Private Roundhouse … Enchanting! (Not in a Box!)

☯ If you've never slept in the round before, you owe yourself! We all want to "think outside the box," but how about sleeping outside the box? — well, inside, but not in a box! Windows above & all around, 59,206 pennies beneath. ★ ☸ ★ Magic!

We love to design spaces that are not in a box. We want to give our guests an experience that is meaningful and memorable.

*****************
"Enchanting, magical, uplifting" -- those are words used recently by our guests, describing this wonderful space. Twelve sides, windows all around, surrounded by nature, yet close to town.
*****************

Picture a cabin made of cedar and glass. It has wi-fi, electric heat, a comfortable queen-sized bed, a chair for reading, a fold-out desk, and a table with a coffee pot. All the bare essentials, in one place.

It's situated to be rustic and inspirational, nestled into the back corner of a deep lot. There are fruit trees all around and a seasonal pond that attracts ducks in the spring and early summer. Depending on the season, you can listen to birds and frogs from inside the roundhouse, or cross the footbridge to the south-facing deck behind the workshop -- another private space for your "get away from the bustle" contemplations. Or enjoy the firepit.

Follow the wending path to the front fence and everything is nearby.

The bathroom is at the rear of the main house, right near the back door (about 30 yards from the roundhouse). It's private and only barely shared. (We have another bath-and-a-half elsewhere in the house.) We have a clever curtaining system that can give you extra privacy if you want it. You'll be left as alone as you choose to be during your visit.

With a little bit of planning, we're happy to share our full kitchen with you during daylight hours. Same with the laundry room.

We're sharing our home with you, so we ask you to be respectful of that. We love to brag about Eugene and Oregon, and we're happy to share what we have and what we know.

Loved it!

My friend and I stayed here for two nights with my dog, and loved it. Not only is the location beautiful and the roundhouse really cool, but Don also really made the experience special. From a welcome message on a chalkboard when we arrived to customize postcards with the image of the roundhouse you can mail to family and friends, there were so many cute details that you just don’t get at a lot of other reaction rentals. Definitely recommend!

A bed in a shed

Would absolutely NOT recommend. As a female traveling with young teens, we did not feel safe. There was no way I was going to send my teens into an unknown, OCCUPIED house to use the toilet or shower. The fact that bathroom is 30 yards away and shared should be the FIRST thing mentioned in the description but instead is buried in a word salad. The entire vibe of this place is extremely awkward bordering on creepy. We were on the property no longer than 10 minutes before we walked away as I felt our safety and peace of mind was more important than losing our payment. Don, the host altered our four night reservation down to one night while still charing the full amount. I can only assume that was so he could open up reservations for other soon to be duped guests. READ THE DESCRIPTION THROUGHLY AND ALL THE REVIEWS.**Vrbo does NOT care if guests feel unsafe or deceived.**

Magical place to stay!

This is a truly magical and blissful place to stay. Being in the yard feels like a little retreat escape. My toddler loved exploring the yard too. The actual roundhouse is beautiful- I especially enjoyed looking at the stars through the ceiling dome window at night. The only feedback I have is it would have been helfpul if the AC had been turned on before we got there- it was 92 degrees inside when we arrived. But it cooled down relatively quickly. They also let us check out late because our toddler was napping, which was super kind. We would love to come back!

Not as described

Very small "Round House" did not include either a bathroom or a kitchen. The bathroom is in another building across an unkept yard. The kitchen is outside on a patio. No room left for us when we arrived.

Property Misrepresented on Website.

Property was listed as having a full bath & kitchen. Photos of the cabin included a small modest bathroom. After booking it became clear that the bathroom was not a private bathroom. It was attached to the private residence & was to be 'shared' with the residents. It had no kitchen. That was also to be shared with the residents of the home. When I was made aware of these facts I attempted to cancel, less than 25 mins after the initial booking. Despite the fact that this wasn't the booking we had bargained for, I was prepared to stay. However, VRBO contacted the owner, & got his verbal okay to process the refund. Once I heard via email from customer service that the refund would be processed I went ahead and booked another accommodation for our two day stay in Eugene. Several days later, the charge had posted and the charge was not reversed. I contacted VRBO again. They contacted the owner who said he hadn't processed the refund because he had a dislocated a shoulder. The next day, when the refund still hadn't been processed, the owner was contacted again. At this point he said he had 'changed his mind' about the refund because VRBO didn't processed it in a timely fashion. I'm a senior on a fixed income. My budget can't accommodate paying double for a room. I would have never booked a second accommodation had VRBO not assured me that the cancellation had been completed.

This was a nightmare. The owner met me and asked what I was doing there as he didn't have a reservation for me. When I showed him the email from him he was embarrassed. The entire back yard is dead - dead grass, dead plants, just a few living trees - NOTHING like the picture. The pond has no water in it. The "kitchen" is an outdoor dusty shelf with a hotplate and microwave. The refrigerator is "shared" with the host (also outside) and didn't have room in the freezer. But the worst was the bathroom - apparently shared with the owner who left the toilet seat up and hasn't cleaned anything in a while (toothpaste globs in the sink). The shower had hanging half-dead plants in it with leaves on the shower floor. I started coughing the minute I walked in there - mold maybe? It was all too much. I packed my stuff and left. So disgusting. My guess is perhaps the owner is not doing well health-wise, but this property should NOT be available to rent.

Perfect for what i needed

Just needed a place to sleep to drive my son home from school. Given the hotels were 3x more expensive this worked out well and I was willing to “adapt in” to the bathroom being in the main house.

Not good

The website did not indicate that there was no bathroom in the room. I am on dialysis and require a private bathroom near the bedroom. Once I was given the check in information, it noted the bathroom was in a separate house and was shared. I attempted to get a refund but could not. Very dissatisfied and will not recommend vrbo to anyone or use it again.

Wonderful, quirky place

We loved the dome above the bed, looking out at the stars. It was very comfortable and VERY quiet. Bring a flashlight (or a phone) to light your way to the bathroom; it wasn't a problem for us. And there is outdoor lighting too; but we are older folks... 70ish. I'd stay there again.

Serene getaway

If you like unusual properties, this is the place for you. Kind of like “glamping”, the host anticipates your every need and provides all the comforts of home in a beautiful setting, indoors and out. The bedroom is a beautiful yurt with all kinds of hidden perks. The bathroom is in the main building that is accessed across a lush garden, complete with a quiet stream and a fragrant rose bush. It is an authentic Eugene experience.

Great getaway to unwind and relax

I stayed at the Roundhouse to get away on my own and relax. It was very cosy and warm inside even with the snow. The decoration is nice and "rounded"very thoughtfully and practical for the space. Definitely considering it again at a different time of year next time to be able to enjoy their beautiful garden.
