Incredible craftsmanship
Went to Gold Hills for a ‘framily” memorial service. The house was better than the pictures but the entertainment deck space was the cherry on top. Incredible! Very comfortable house with comfortable bedrooms and plenty of space. The kitchen was well stocked and the accomations for pets was very welcoming. I will surely stay again but for longer in order to just have some downtime by the river!

Wofpac outing
This was by far one of our best stays. The house has plenty of room, was clean and fitted our needs beautifully. Our only complaint was unable to find a cookie sheet, so you see that is not a real issue. It is a beautiful setting, and the outdoor patios are very nice. We were not able to take advantage due to weather and it being accessed by steep stairs and inclines. I

It's about the river
The house is clean and well appointed for your stay, with nice outdoor furniture, hot tub, fire pit, etc. The highway traffic noise was more than we expected and was really unfortunate given the beautiful Rogue River location.

Girls Getaway
My girlfriends and I stayed here for a weekend getaway. The house is very nice and had plenty to of room for the 9 of us. The hot tub and outdoor seating was a favorite for us. Very nice view of the river. The power went out and the flashlight’s batteries were dead. I went to the market and bought some. The property manager said he’d make sure I was reimbursed. He was very apologetic. Highly recommended if you want a relaxing getaway.

Very gorgeous location but not welcoming
This house is nice but not special. I booked for a special night with my friend, the bride to be, the host was kind enough to let us decorate for the occasion as long as we took everything with us. While this house sleeps 10 people (4 queen size beds and 1 king) for every person past 4 i was charged $30 and the cleaning fee was $160. With all these charges i was hoping for a relaxing stay but for only 21hrs we had to take out there trash (the recycling which was filled to the brim when we arrived), Be careful of what towels we could and could not use, wash all of our dish and have them ready to be put away, sweep the floors, and strip our own beds. While i have no issue cleaning up after myself and obviously respecting anothers home spending half a grand for only 21hrs and no amenities felt excessive. The morning we were there. Lots of random work men were in the shed (which was literally under the house) blocked us for breakfast by the river. Finally the outside was just a mess. The table and chairs were caked in dirt there were giant spider webs everywhere the deck had not been sweeped nor the area around the hot tub. All in all its a beautiful home but i did not see where all the maintenance fees went. The cost did not show in the quality and my stress was simply to high to even enjoy the trip. If you're spending over 500 for a place i suggest a lodge or another house rental around the area i had much better experiences there.

Beautiful Riverfront location
Beautiful location especially the outside deck area. The home was nicely decorated and comfortable. The house could have been cleaner, one of the bathrooms had obvious skid marks in the toilet bowl and poo on the bidet and on the floor. Other than that the house and location was nice and we enjoyed our stay.
