Rogue River Guesthouse: Rural river views near I-5

Finding the place was easy if you stick closely to the directions. I prefer to stay a bit out of town usually and this is only 15 minutes from Medford. There are two routes to get there, I prefer the back route off the freeway, which adds about 3 minutes, but we saw an abundance of wildlife that way, and avoided the traffic on I-5. On the way in, we passed a small group of deer just 30 yards from our cabin, on the property. The place is immaculate. The kitchen, bathroom, bedrooms and living space and large, incredibly clean, and have all the creature comforts you would expect if you built it for yourself. The host(s) greeted us minutes after we arrived. They made sure we got in (easy to do), and they let us know they live on the property and have a blind dog that we should keep an eye out for. The only negative is that the view isn’t quite what you see in the pictures. The picture with the rainbow IS exactly what you can see from the cabin, but it is from a side window in the bedroom, that you can only see when standing in the room on the side of the bed. The beautiful view of the river in the picture, does not exist from the cabin. The view of the river is obstructed by trees from any porch on the property save and small sliver through the trees in three spots. That said, if you walk over near the front of the owner’s house you have an incredible view of the river, but you are about 20 feet from the owner’s front door, which is probably not to cool. All in all, the sounds were amazing, the owners suggested we sleep with the doors open, and we did each night, it was so peaceful and refreshing. The place is wonderful, just don’t expect to sit on the porch and watch the river, that was our expectations, but even though that wasn’t an option, we would probably stay there again.

Amazing Property!!! Everything as described... very clean and well maintained!

In town In business and this was cheaper than 2 hotel rooms. Boy what a pleasant surprise! Absolutely gorgeous views and the Rogue river is literally 150yds away. I could sit in the balcony and just listen to the river all night. Tons of wildlife on the property as well. Phenomenal value for those that enjoy the outdoors, yet only 15-20 minutes away from the city and restaurants.

Words like solid and welcoming come to mind. Wasn't staying there for the scenery - which was spectacular BTW. Was visiting a grandkid and at a certain age you want no hassle and a feeling of security in a strange place. This is it. The owners are friendly and decent people who care about their visitors and the overall setting gives you a sense of peace. Will never stay any place else

An excellent spot. Very scenic location overlooking the Mighty Rogue River. The place was great. I was thrown by the payment process. After paying thru VRBO I was contacted by the property management group to pay. It took a long time to find a way to contact someone with VRBO (you need to make it easier for people to call you) who indicated I had just paid the fee and needed to pay the manager directly. There was no indication of that when I booked the property and had not experienced that in the past. No biggie just frustrating. But the property and property manager were great. Thanks. Glenn

Got this at the last minute from the website... It looked good on the site but that actually understates how excellent it is. We stay in these kinds of places when we are visiting family on the west coast and most are more-are-less acceptable, but they have that not as nice as my home feel. This one is like a step up in luxury (and I don't care what your house is like - it doesn't have the Rogue River at its feet. The place is solid and very modern. The attention to detail is superb and the owners actually care about your comfort. Had a power failure while we are there, and the guy rousted himself out of bed in the middle of the night to bring us flashlights. That's the kind of people you'll be staying with. Had my son and his wife out for dinner. They were so impressed that they want to have a stay-cation there (and they live in Central Point). And of course we'll be staying there the next time we visit.

We absolutely loved this property. Very clean, comfortable and included everything we needed. The natural beauty is incomparable and the hosts were very responsive, kind and helpful. Definitely recommend that you stay here!

The hosts were warm and friendly. The property is nice and very clean. The views were great? We would stay there again.

This is a awesome place that Joe and Nancy have. The place was spotless and everything you could want in a kitchen. The location was great and very quiet with great views.

Clean accommodations. Everything as described. Beds are not very comfortable.
