About this house rental

This unique property sits in a secluded forest setting high above Old Town and the Siuslaw River bridge. It offers complete privacy yet is just a short walk to the shops, restaurants, harbor, and other attractions of Old Town. Go down a forest path to arrive at the high dunes overlooking the Siuslaw River, Florence, and the Ocean. You do have to climb the dunes, which is challenging.

The house comes with two bedrooms upstairs with an adjoining deck that overlooks the forest and a gives you a peek at Old Town; there is another bedroom downstairs. All beds are Queen size. The paneled great room has multiple view windows and comes with a fully equipped kitchen, a dining area, and a pellet stove. There is high speed internet and a large TV in the living room area. There is a laundry area with a washer and dryer. A deck with outside seating and a gas barbeque is located off the great room. There is a lawn with a great big fire pit surrounded by log benches and plenty of firewood. Surrounding it all is the virgin forest.

8.0 / 10.0

The property is very cool. Very private. Our only regret is that we were only able to stay for one night. Didn’t get a chance to enjoy the outdoor amenities.

6.0 / 10.0

The setting is top notch and wonderful. You can see Florence city lights and hear some of the hustle and bustle of small town life. The property is on the boundary of a local state park- Lots of mushrooms everywhere. Absolutely wonderful location. The only detractor is that the downstairs mattress was the only one soft enough to catch some intermittent sleep. This place would be much better with comfortable bedding/matresses. The steep driveway would be difficult for some vehicles.

Sweet view, nice pellet heater. We really enjoyed this place.

10.0 / 10.0

Quiet, very private, but so close to everything. Driveway is a bit steep but no problem. Love the pellet stove. Will be back!

Lovely in woods older decor but charming and well kept property. Somebody left their dog poo in the yard so we picked it up. A sogn might help others to be respectful?

Host was friendly. Great secluded location to let our dog run and smell everything. Very quiet and comfortable.

Great location, beautiful cabin. Loved the fire pit and walking in the forest behind the cabin. Thanks for the great trip!

6.0 / 10.0

Start with the good. Comfortable older coastal home. Nice location close to sand dunes and town. The driveway access is steep as stated in other reviews but was not a problem for us. The house is very private. Now for the not so good. The house had an off putting smell that required airing out. Dead bolt did not work. Owner/ manager has still not responded any questions through the VRBO ap. We had a booking error and after four attempts through the app with no response and multiple phone call attempts with a variety of answers from full refund to partial refund to just the cleaning fee we just wrote off the second night that we never stayed, double cleaning fee and all. When a property manager lists through VRBO they should respond to their customers through the messaging app. Any response would be better than none at all. I would give 0 stars on communication. If you book, beware there is no communication.

Very secluded with a state forest next to the property. Loved the large windows, patios and balcony.

10.0 / 10.0

The check in was super easy, the kitchen was clean, beds comfortable. The house was charming. The only odd thing was the lack of a light bulb, and the light by the bedside downstairs wasn’t plugged in. Two little things. Our 3 yr. Old granddaughter loved the house, enjoyed walking into the forest and garden! Thank-you! Best Birthday ever!

6.0 / 10.0

The heaters were on (no thermostat to control them) when we arrived and the house was very warm. We manually turned off every floor heater in the house but we could not cool the house to make it comfortable for sleeping by opening windows because most windows did not have screens and the mosquitoes and moths were active. Mattresses seemed to be very old, like if you stayed with your grandmother on a fixed income. Wi-Fi password did not work for any of us but the TV was on the WiFi so it was available for entertainment. The house is in a gorgeous setting and it is roomy. Five of us (everyone over 14) did not feel cramped at all. There are several decks and very large yard with a fire pit that was stocked with wood. You can see city lights from the deck and living room. It is stocked with ample places to sit and relax or socialize. We used the fridge and the microwave with no issues. We used the washer and dryer (saved the dryer for the morning, due to the heat it would add to the house), which was convenient. If the house had not been sweltering, we probably would not have minded the mattresses, but sleep was difficult the night we were there.

Unable to contact host to stay. Had to call VRBO customer support and find new lodging at 6 pm.

10.0 / 10.0

We had an amazing time in Florence, OR!!!Our band played at the Laughing Crab, which was packed with locals who were laughing and singing along while they ate dinner and lifted a glass or two. Then we arrived back at this forest retreat, where we roasted sausage dogs over an open fire. It was like a beautiful camping experience... except that we got to go in and take a shower and sleep in a comfortable bed!

Loved the seclusion

10.0 / 10.0

Loved the forest setting! So fun for the kids (8, 4, 2). Couldn’t find kids dinnerware so we used the ceramic or paper plates. Not a lot of other toddler friendly activities amongst the board games and puzzles, but we didn’t spend a lot of time at the house. Roku TV allowed us to login to all our apps for streaming. Location was so convenient to go run to the grocery store and drive to various tourist spots. We didn’t have any trouble getting up the hill with our Toyota Sienna. The house was very clean upon arrival. So cozy and welcoming! Couldn’t find a hatchet and host didn’t respond to our message (although he had called when we got into town) so we just used sticks and logs that were easy to pull apart. Bathroom door was a little difficult to open and close. Wonderful experience. We may stay there again!! Magical magical memories.

2.0 / 10.0

The location is great, but the driveway is a little rough. The house was not clean. There was dog food on the floor, a tooth pick left on the floor, the toiletries were wet and partially used. No wash cloths and there was sand in the upstairs bed. The deadbolt won't lock, the windows didn't have screens, the TV wouldn't turn on and the host was completely unresponsive. We only stayed for one of our booked nights.

Cherry Hill House provided a lovely haven in a wooded area with easy access to Florence. Everything required for an enjoyable stay was provided .

8.0 / 10.0

The surrounding property, location, and outdoor amenities (deck, fire pit) were outstanding. The house is older and more significantly had a strong odor when we first arrived. We were able to air it out, but that was not a great first impression. Regardless, the host was very friendly and communicative.

4.0 / 10.0

The house is fine and the location is good but it was inaccessible to us. The listing does not disclose that the house is on top of a very steep, poorly maintained dirt road. The road was so sandy that our Subaru got stuck and required a tow. We cut our stay short. Owner suggested that we park at the bottom of the hill and walk up. That was not a realistic solution as we were traveling with small children. Buyer beware.

10.0 / 10.0

Cozy house nestled in the forest. The road up to it is a little steep though

10.0 / 10.0

A perfect location in a small, secluded forest area, but just a few minutes walk or drive from Old Town Florence.The cabin itself was cozy and comfortable with a rustic feel, but nice amenities. There was plenty of firewood available for nighttime campfires in the firepit.The road up to the cabin can be a tad daunting, but in the end, we were ok with a standard 2WD Jetta.

10.0 / 10.0

Spent a relaxing evening on our way down the coast. The cabin is charming and clean and so cozy! Our pup loved chasing her ball on the lawn and roaming around in the woods behind. Wished we had a longer stay here so we could have used the fire pit!

10.0 / 10.0

Very nice house tucked in woodland that feels like a remote retreat but is just outside Florence. Living room and outdoor spaces are very peaceful surrounded by woodland and there's a lot of effort to make guests comfortable throughout.

10.0 / 10.0

Loved this property! Tucked back in the woods was the perfect setting. Lots of room and very clean. By far one of our favorites!

10.0 / 10.0

Super clean place. Checkin was easy. Only issue we had was not having the right password for the WiFi. Initial instructions for checkin were out of date but owners reached out before stay to provide updated info. Tucked back in the woods a bit, and driveway is a bit steep but quiet, peaceful location.

Nice property. Coffee maker doesn’t work well. We enjoyed our stay!

10.0 / 10.0

The house is an older house, but it is wonderfully charming. The best part of this property is location, location, location. It has its own private forest a big green yard fire pits barbecue. It’s amazing. You can walk to the dunes privately. Your dogs can run freely!And the owner of the property is a real great guy! I would recommend this property any time! Some reviews listed the driveway as an issue. It is not it is perfectly.perfectly fine.

10.0 / 10.0

2nd time renting this house. We love it for the surrounding forest and dunes that lead to the river and sight of the ocean in the distance.

6.0 / 10.0

Older, no view, very steep driveway & working on it when we arrived,& no key in lockbox on arrival. Owner didn't remember booking it but showed up at 4:00 and the cleaners came about 4:15pm, after we arrived, to clean the house. Later we found a large roast in the oven with mold all over it. House was older but furniture was comfy, had good heart system, no dishwasher but we survived.

10.0 / 10.0

Hunted mushrooms on the property and had a ton of fun! Will for sure stay here again!

8.0 / 10.0

I wish i had it in me to give this place a terrible review. That would be for selfish reasons. Great little house in the woods under 10 minutes from everything. I was apprehensive after reading other reviews, rental car company messed up and gave me a little carolla instead of an SUV. Carolla got up the driveway just fine, no problems with the water or water pressure, property manager was great, price was perfect for what i got, dryer was swapped out the day i arrived, it was a great vacation. If you dont like peace and quiet stay away from this place Cant wait for my next visit!

We enjoyed staying at this house with our dog, surrounded by beautiful woods. We enjoyed downstairs patio and a deck upstairs as well as a seating area with a fire pit. At night you can see the lights of the old town through the trees. There are many excellent places to eat a few minutes away right across the bridge. We also enjoyed Darlings marina restaurant : amazing hamburgers and bbq. Safeway is close by. We had no issues with water and all appliances work. Our bed was comfortable. We would stay there again.

10.0 / 10.0

Wonderful little house up a small narrow steep road that added to the fun. Everything we wanted or needed except a washing machine. The washing machine did not work for us. Actually, neither did the TV. There were four adult women and none of us could get either to work. I still loved the house and setting. We didn't ask for help with the TV and didn't try the washing machine late our last night. I'm sure that our host would have helped us with the TV. Anyway, love the setting!

10.0 / 10.0

We loved the trails, yard, fire pit, the list goes on. The lights through the trees were breath taking. We recommend this home to anyone.

8.0 / 10.0

The road is steep, VERY steep, leading to the property but there was a forest wonderland located at the top. It was private and secluded. There was plenty of room for parking and outside activities. The forest trails were private and safe for all levels of walkers. It was a cabin with space and we were very comfortable.

10.0 / 10.0

Amazing setting with areas for gathering and exploring. Area for morning reflections with covered deck and sitting area, day of hiking and adventures in woodland setting and dunes, evenings around the campfire for marshmallows, songs and stories, night of comfortable slumber and dreams. Driveway was steep yet notified of this prior to visit and we were able to navigate up to find a exceptional getaway secluded and magical. The Turner Clan

I rented the property and was originally told I would receive the code to lock box a week prior to our arrival, the second email stated It would be better for us to meet prior at designated location to drive us to property, I was given three numbers and asked to call a half hour prior to our arrival, all numbers were unresponsive, sent email, text numbers, no response. I have tried to contact the host, no response. Due to no response, I had to rent an alternate location. To date, I have yet to be contacted by the host. Filed a case with VRBO, still waiting, and waiting. It is unfortunate that the customer seems to fall on the way side. I would not suggest the property as a choice of rentals if you visit Florence Oregon. Have a nice.

I do not recommend staying here. If you can make it up the steep graveled driveway and bring similar supplies as you would glamping, the location and privacy of this house can’t be beat. Our two wheel drive Kia Sorento barely made it up the driveway with a running start. We had warm water in the kitchen compared to other reviews but the pressure was non existent. Showers were not possible, not even a trickle of water came out of the shower head. The bathroom sink never had warm water and we had issues with the toilet flushing properly because of the lack of pressure. We had to wash any dish before using them not because of a few smudges but because the layers of grease on items. The house was ill stocked with essentials like enough toilet paper and dish towels. The internet did not work at all and the owner was non responsive to our request for support via text. He randomly stopped by to pick up some tools and said he would be back, he never came. The lack of screens on the windows made the July heat tough. We’ve experienced minor inconveniences with properties in the past but have never had a stay thay made us want to go home. If it were for us traveling with my elder parents who couldn’t make the long drive again so quickly, we would have left.

No water when arrived. Was stated well had run dry. We moved to a hotel in town. We now have waited 14 plus days still no refund. The customer support puts you on hold promise it’s escalated when you call back they either don’t see escalation or that no one has taken the ticket. Horrible overall experience would highly not recommend

I wish I could say I enjoyed this stay like I have in the past this was the 3rd year in a row we have booked this home, and never had an issue till this time around. ! No water the first night we arrived at 6pm. 8PM came around and lost water... tried to get ahold if someone it was difficult. Didnt get water till we got back next evening around 6pm.... had water the rest of the day/night/ half morning. Go on about our day go to the dunes. Come back thinking everything was good, only to find out NO WATER once again. Contactated the owner and no response... sad to say this is the last we book this place 😕 afraid we will run across other issues next..... we pay for a home to have comfort... yet we struggled the whole stay. Didnt go book a hotel since it ment we would have paid double $$ Must i say we didnt get any reimbursement or other accommodations of some sort. ....
