ABOUT WINE COUNTRY PROPERTIES
I'm Anita, and Larry and I host through our vacation rental company, Wine Country Properties. We are locally based in McMinnville, Oregon - right in the mecca of Oregon Wine Country. We love trying local restaurants and wineries, and we're usually restoring an old house. We're big fans of This Old House! From any of our vacation homes or extended stays, walk to our famous, historic downtown, McMinnville's Third Street, or, if you are staying in any of our Carlton Townhouses, be just steps away from tasting rooms and chef-driven restaurants. For more information, please see our online reviews.

INTERACTION WITH GUESTS
We respect your privacy, but we're always here if you need us. You'll enjoy self-check-in, and we're available by phone/text or messages through the booking platform if anything comes up during your stay. After you book, you will receive our curated local wine and dine recommendations.

Rural setting

Guests have private access to the entire home and the surrounding yard, except that the 3rd floor is locked and unavailable for guest use. Self-check-in is easy via a secure keypad. You'll receive detailed check-in instructions prior to your arrival.

Welcome to Forest Hollow—a beautifully remodeled retreat that blends rustic charm with modern comfort. Thoughtfully furnished with cozy, updated pieces and earthy design touches, the home feels like a fresh take on a farmhouse-meets-colonial style, surrounded by nature. From the moment you arrive, you’ll notice the calm forest setting and warm exterior tones, accented by a striking forest-green metal roof.

The main floor is designed to be the heart of the home—perfect for gathering, relaxing, and enjoying time together. The open living room is centered around a wood stove with a classic brick backdrop and stacked firewood nearby, creating a cozy focal point for evenings in. The space flows seamlessly to the dining area, featuring an oversized table that seats eight, and into the large, fully stocked kitchen with an island and bar seating—ideal for group cooking, shared meals, and slow mornings with coffee.

Also tucked away on the main level is a comfortable bedroom with a king bed and an adjacent full bathroom in the hall. The full bathroom also has a washer/dryer and serves as the home’s main bathroom.

Upstairs offers excellent privacy and separation for families or groups. The spacious primary suite features a private ensuite bathroom and peaceful views of the natural surroundings, making the room feel like a true retreat. Down the hall is an additional bedroom with a queen bed and nature views, plus an adjacent full bathroom for guest use. At the end of the hallway is the fourth bedroom with a bunk bed and a dedicated workspace with a desk and chair—perfect for remote work or quiet planning time.

Outdoor living is where Forest Hollow truly shines. Enjoy multiple intimate spaces designed for every mood: gather around the outdoor fire pit with lounge seating and cozy blankets for crisp nights, relax near the BBQ just off the kitchen with sun loungers and an umbrella, or dine under the evening twinkle lights at a large outdoor table that seats up to eight. The covered front porch offers yet another peaceful spot to unwind in comfortable lounge chairs while listening to nature and watching the forest life go by. And for even more fun, head to the garage—open the doors and enjoy a game of ping pong.
