About this house rental

Tucked away on a corner lot in the heart of Newberg, this wonderful bungalow is just a few blocks from countless fabulous restaurants, wine tasting options, and George Fox University. Additionally, hundreds of extraordinary vineyards are just a short drive away in some of the most picturesque landscapes imaginable.

The decor and furnishing have been recently updated to provide that perfect blend of style and comfort. The covered patio with a fire table is always a popular amenity. Whether you are in town for work or pleasure, 'Al's House' is a fantastic option to rest, recuperate, and enjoy all Oregon's wine country and the Pacific Northwest has to offer.

Property Information:

Al Blodgett was a pillar in the Newberg community. He served 50 years with the Newberg Fire Department, helped run the local Toy & Joy program, and helped fund the city Christmas lights and decorations. Al also helped organize the Newberg Old Fashioned Festival each year & actively involved with the chamber of commerce, but he also ran a successful Drive-In for 18 years. Al's Drive-In was a well loved place where many went to enjoy a meal out. In 1966, Blodgett opened the restaurant and had two topless mermaids painted to be a part of the sign. Being a small and conservative town, these mermaids created quite a controversy, with many demanding they be removed or covered up. Being the stubborn man he was, Blodgett refused and instead settled on a less detailed version of the breasts to be painted. While it didn't please everyone, it was enough to allow the mermaids to remain until Blodgett closed the diner in 1984 when he became a full time firefighter. For 18 years, families and friends gathered at that Drive-In, and many teens had their first job at Al's Drive-In. It has become a beloved piece of Newberg's history and a big part of Al's legacy.

    The property was a perfect location for my stay. Loved having washer and dryer, full kitchen, 2 bedroom areas plus a living space! Unfortunately, due to the extreme heat at the time of our visit we had to obtain other accommodations the last night as the window AC was not able to keep up and the inside temp was 83 at 10pm. Only restitution was for future trips and no restitution for the night we had to find other accommodations. Unsatisfied with this result tainting the rest of the stay.

    An older home in a well-established neighborhood, the home provided us the things we desired for our stay. It was a comfortable home in a quiet location, close to downtown. It allowed us to visit our kids and have a place to veg out for a while too.

    I needed a place to stay for a few days with a kitchen table and a couch so I could meet with my business partner, and this place was perfect. The hosts were accessible via text and everything was effortless. I’ll be back.

    This was a great place for my daughter and I to stay for her college drop off. We were disappointed that the sleeper sofa wasn't comfortable. But we just shared the bed and it was fine. The only issue I had was with the gate latch. It would get stuck and I would be unable to open it the way it was set up. I also put the garbage out the night before pick up like asked and the trash was not picked up. I don’t know if the day is different now since the manual was made or if I did something wrong.
