Southeast Eugene House | Nifty Thrifty - Affordable, Comfortable, in Ideal Location!

2 Bedroom House in Southeast Eugene, Eugene

Casual, affordable and oh so conveniently located, Nifty Thrifty is the answer for singles, couples and small families seeking elbow room on a visit to fun and funky Eugene. Park the car in the attached garage: Around the corner (29th and Willamette) you’ll find a gourmet market, and a variety of restaurants and shops. And now, a budding food cart pod just a block away!
Bring a bike or take advantage of the two bus lines that are just steps from your door – either way, you’re within minutes of Fifth Street Market, the Hult Center, Saturday Market, the University of Oregon campus and Hayward Field, or Autzen Stadium. It’s only 20 minutes by car to the Lorane Valley wine country, less than 60 to the whitewater beauty of the McKenzie River, and less than 90 to hike or ski the Cascades. Nothing’s out of reach from this location!
The one-story 1950s-vintage house features two bedrooms, a full bath, hardwood floors, a fireplace, a private fenced and landscaped backyard (roses and fruit trees!) and a laundry. Thanks to the addition of a ductless heat pump, there is AC. The full-sized kitchen is equipped with all the appliances you’ll need to pull together breakfast at the dinette or serve dinner in the dining room. If there’s business on your schedule, there’s a workstation in the master bedroom and WiFi throughout the house. The neighborhood is quiet, safe, friendly, and eclectic.
Said a recent guest: 'Nifty Thrifty was the perfect choice...ideally located, close to shopping, public transit, the university, and Amazon Park with its bicycle & running trails, children's playground and a great dog park. The home is spotless with all the extras one could need, even a garage for the car. The back yard was perfect, completely fenced with plants and lawn and a small patio with a table and chairs. The neighborhood is extremely quiet with very little traffic other than the local residents. All in all, we couldn't have been more pleased...and would not hesitate to recommend it to anyone looking for a vacation rental in Eugene.'
The details:
• Queen-sized bed in the primary bedroom.
• Full-sized bed in the second bedroom.
• Sofa sleeper (please request information before planning to use it)
• Air bed available for small-child use upon request.
• The house is ramp-equipped for handicapped access from the garage, though not all interior doorways are wide enough for wheelchair use. Grab bars are installed at the front door and in the bathroom.
• All linens and an uncommonly wide range of cooking supplies are provided.

Summary: Lovely updated 50s/60s home in a quiet neighborhood. Short walk to restaurants and grocery store. We really enjoyed the mature back yard with roses, grapes and fruit trees. Our host, Ellen couldn't have been more helpful and great to visit with. We would definitely stay here again.

Summary: Was met by owner who took time to show us around and how to work everything as well as the expectations. This was really just a space to crash before a day at the coast and then heading home very early the following day. Conveniently located to other family as well as amenities.Highly recommend.

Summary: Very impressed with cleanliness and attention to details. Ellen (our host) had thought of everything we could possibly need. Her booklet for guests had lots of info about local places to meet any needs that might arise. She was quick to respond to my messages. Friendly and exceptional experience We felt right at home and were able to relax whenever we were not on the go. The bed was comfortable-just the right amount of firmness.

Summary: The house was perfect for our weekend in Eugene. The guidebook was detailed with great recommendations on things to do/places to eat. The kitchen was well stocked and the whole home was very clean. We even had some sunshine and took advantage of the patio furniture in the cute backyard.

Summary: We spent 3 nights at this property. It was like living at someone's home who happened to be away for a few days, with books on the shelves and tasteful artwork throughout the house. The bed was comfortable, and the kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed to prepare breakfast and lunch. The property has a garage which we chose to not use because of our short stay. The only negative is that the one bathroom in the house was rather small, but it had a nice new sink and was very clean.
