Washburne Park Retreat

Enjoy unbeatable access to college sports and international track and field events at this four-bedroom Eugene home, a welcoming family retreat with central air conditioning, a yard, and a wonderful location within walking distance of beautiful parks and the University of Oregon. This cheerful yellow home sits one mile southeast of downtown Eugene, just half a block south of the Sunday summer concerts in Washburne Park. Take morning walks through the world-famous rhododendron garden at Hendricks Park half a mile east, grab a seat to watch the USA Track & Field Championships or the Olympic trials at Hayward Field half a mile north, and root on the Oregon Ducks football team each fall at Autzen Stadium two miles north. Built in 1935, this home is casual, comfortable, and an ideal retreat for a family of Oregon alumni. Spend your mornings hiking part of the 12-mile Ridgeline Trail in Hendricks Park, and return home to whip up pancakes in the full kitchen (with a dishwasher), grab a change of clothes from the washer/dryer, and use the free WiFi to read the sports section outside on the deck and patio. After a day spent in the stands at Hayward Field, you can barbecue with friends on the gas grill in the garden, and enjoy the home's very flexible sleeping arrangements (the two twin beds are trundles - one is beneath a traditional full-size bed, and the other is beneath the twin-size daybed). There's always fun to be had in the charming neighborhoods of Eugene - begin planning your next trip to the Willamette Valley today! *Please note that no more than 5 unrelated guests are allowed per reservation according to Eugene city code. *Please note the fireplace is no longer available for guest use.
