About this farm stay rental
The Bunkhouse Retreat is proudly owned by a founding Salem family whose history and beautiful grounds and skilled landscape architecture dates back to the 1900's. The downstairs space which is entirely yours, features a bathroom with shower, microwave, Keurig coffee maker, and basic utensils for dining. Wander around on the grounds and you might catch a glimpse of the resident pony.
The Bunkhouse Retreat is located in the north end of the 1,200 acres of lush, natural open and wooded area known as Minto-Brown Island Park. Walk, jog, or bike along 19 mile of hard and soft trail through native timber a grassy meadows. Enjoy fishing spots, a paddle boat area, and paved bikeways.
The Bunkhouse is a great Retreat just not the best place to do work on the computer. The Wifi is very very poor and really spotty, so doesn't always work out there.
The Wifi network is called CenturyLink3019, password aaf7bc87te7x4b. The internet speed is 0.5 Mbps. There is a wifi extender called "Bunkhouse" with the same password, aaf7bc87te7x4b.

We loved this quaint and rustic property! It was tucked away from the bustle of town on a beautiful, peaceful property! The bed was very comfortable. The property manager was great at communicating and made the check-in process very easy!
4.0 / 10.0
Disappointed in the outside up keep from the appearance of the entry gate (Moss growing on gate) and front entrance ( spider webs). Ant traps throughout the place. Our third night we had a mouse run across the floor. Packed up and left with two nights remaining (no notice given). Very disappointed.
8.0 / 10.0
Lovely spot, cozy, clean and comfortable. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because there was an issue with the faucet, which dripped constantly, gradually over several days just running hot water all the time and made it difficult to get cold water.

Beautiful property, easy check in process and communication. However, the place smells old and there was evidence of mice and ants.

Spacious, cozy, well stocked, nestled in nature. sunsets, scenery with solitude except for the street racers doing time trials up and down river road a couple nites.

We enjoyed this hidden gem secluded next to the Willamette River with lots of song birds, ducks, & vegetation around the banks. The quiet sprawling country estate is perfectly secluded back from the highway. Our ground-level cozy Bunk House had a scenic focal-point bay window & abundance of literature for guests. We never turned on the TV during our relaxing 3-night stay. Enjoyed flowing streams with benches on this well-manicured estate. This VRBO felt like something from a storybook. Very rare, wonderful experience. March 2023.

Overall good.
Would be nice to have more modern tv with HDMI input options.
There was food in fridge when arrived, weird. Also shampoo/conditioner bottles in the shower, weird.
Recommend turning some heat on for guests prior to arrival, it was icebox when arriving from AZ

Very tranquil and serene place and a lovely place to relax. The indoor lighting is a bit lacking but other than that we had a great visit. Angela was terrific to work with and the peace and quiet was just what we wanted.
10.0 / 10.0
This place is just heavenly. The grounds are beautiful. I felt safe and secure. The property backs up to a state park. Cabin feel, comfortable bed, nice amenities, Very thorough instructions about entry, Gated. This is a very quiet serene place to stay. I loved every minute of it!

8.0 / 10.0
Neat little spot, had everything you need. Bed was very comfortable. Unfortunately a bit hard (cumbersome) to find and although clean was a bit musty until we were able to air it out.
Briefly met Angela, she was very nice. The bunkhouse is very convenient for us, we'll stay here again.

"Ultimate relaxer"
Great little relaxing place to stay! Simple, rustic accommodations in a beautiful setting just minutes from downtown and west Salem. Loved the place, sorry we missed the horses....That would have been pure heaven for us.

100 acre wood
The landscape was perfectly groomed, the dog greeting was on point(my personal favorite), and the natural surroundings (e.g. river, wild birds, etc.) are a must see. The rustic decorum in the efficiency gives a ranch vibe. For the price I paid, I expected a cleaner space and was hopeful for a refund on my cleaning deposit. Hoping for a follow up text from the property manager. Thank you for making your property a beautiful alternative to a standard hotel.

Lovely serene environment
A very clean place with everything one might need for their stay. A lovely hideaway retreat in a wooded environment with a pond.
We would definitely stay here again.

Incredible setting!
Small funky barn style cabin on secluded absolutely stunning property. Set in a quiet forest overlooking a large pond with water lilies, frogs and ducks. Very clean. Would highly recommend.

Improvements
Pleasant stay but there was an odor of skunk in the evenings, Wi-Fi was not consistent, the gate did not open automatically to exit two of the three days, there wasn’t any cream for coffee, the lighting could have been better, and it would have been nice to have heat in the bathroom.
10.0 / 10.0
Everything was great! Angela was easy to contact with a couple questions we had. Looking forward to coming back in the spring!

Tiny but beautiful!
As a place to get a goodnights rest, refreshed, and recharged it was great! Tho the tv static was so loud it played over most shows, and internet felt like it was running at kilobit speed. so youtube is mayyybe 144p to get it to play smooth. Tho those where the only downsides!

We had a great time in Salem! It is a very quiet property surrounded by nature.
3.0 / 10.0
Although very rustic, the setting for this bunk house provided calmness and serenity on well-landscaped grounds overlooking Minto Brown protected waterway, always great to see the egrets and ducks enjoying themselves too. Very quiet getaway. Hostess always available to contact. Great directions.

Lovely spot!
This is a lovely little hideaway! I may have hit their fall colors at their peak but no matter….the view out the front bay window was just beautiful! The bunkhouse itself is comfortable - a perfect spot to hunker down after a busy day.

Lovely bunkhouse with beautiful grounds!
The grounds around the property are really beautiful. I had a quite and peaceful stay here. The drive into town is short and easy, and the host was very helpful with directions and arrival instructions.

Beautiful, Tranquil Property
Private location away from the city but just a 5-minute drive to downtown Salem and good restaurants and shopping. Never saw the property owner but she was in contact via email or text throughout the booking process and stay. Directions were great. Highly recommend.

We enjoyed getaway. Fun place
4.0 / 10.0
I went here for a personal work retreat and it was for the most part pretty good. The only thing that was a bummer was that the WiFi didn’t work all weekend. It was probably for the best since I was working and didn’t need it that much. However if you list that the rental has WiFi it should work. The property manger tried to help me out and finally was able to connect but it still would not work. Also another strange thing was that this unit didn’t come with blinds or currents. I was secluded so that didn’t matter all the much except when I was woken up by the sun each day.

Beautiful Property!
Such a gorgeous, unique property--so private, yet so close to the city. Lots of nice touches that made our stay relaxing and comfortable.

Incredible grounds!
I can't say enough about the beauty and peacefulness of this property! Truly a wonderful spot to unplug and relax. Usually I have sleep issues, I slept wonderfully both nights! The portable AC unit kept the room perfect temperature, the mattress was wonderful, and again, the grounds are frankly magical! The only thing I'd change is the lighting is not very bright, and as two grandmas we enjoy cards or knitting in the evening which was difficult with the low lighting. Look forward to staying again!
