Overall A Nice Place to Stay

The layout of this property is great and it feels pretty modern–the hardwood floors are nice and the beds were very comfortable! However, I think a few improvements would make this a stellar rental. The shower heads could easily be replaced with something like the HOPOPRO 5 mode high pressure head for about $15-$20 each and the showers would be 10 times more enjoyable. The bathroom fan downstairs is EXTREMELY loud, and that should be replaced. The TV system is quite confusing to get to cable channels–I recommend an instruction card that explains how to get there. It took us calling Village Properties to be told how to get the three remotes to do what wanted–it is NOT intuitive. With World Cup going on we often wanted to have those games playing when we were home and it was a challenge. The Wi-Fi also cut out multiple times when watching games which was also frustrating. Renters should know that this house is super convenient to Fort Rock Park, but this also means in the evening when going to bed with the windows open there was often quite a bit of noise coming from the park, either pickleball or just people goofing around and talking loudly. If you are a light sleeper this could be an issue. Additionally, there is surprisingly more cars using the road behind the house (East Cascade) overnight than one would think which added to the noise level. There is no real pantry to store food, so you have to use the area with the washer/dryer or a closet where everything goes on the floor. While the house does have three bathrooms, the downstairs bathroom is part of the primary bedroom, so if you don’t want to go upstairs every time to use a bathroom, you will be going through the downstairs bedroom to use one. Having said all that, this home is in otherwise great shape, large dining room table for gathering, the front deck is quite pleasant with the Adirondack chairs, the couches and chairs in the common area were comfortable, and the bedrooms have ample space. With just a few improvements/repairs, this house would be fantastic!
