This home was so filthy that we would not have stayed other than the hassle of getting a refund. Compared to immaculate VRBO properties at a lower price, this house is also way over-priced. I took15 photos of some of the worse areas, but apparently cannot upload them here, so will describe: All surfaces other than countertops had a year or two's worth of grime on them. Hair and dirt in bedroom corners, baseboards brown with accumulated dirt that wipes off with damp rag, ceiling fan edges covered in thick dust, "clean" bedding had someone's hair in it (I have alopecia... zero hair... so no way it could be mine).

Kitchen foul... someone else's food left in refrigerator and pantry. Minimal cookware compared to other VRBOs. Toaster oven had aluminum foil with food on it on top of filthy scorched pan, coffee maker carafe had grounds in it, top of microwave and other surfaces gross. No dishwasher, so just had to trust that silverware and dishes had been washed in a sanitary manner.

No face towels. One hand towel per bathroom, and a couple of dish towels in the kitchen. Kitchen shelves and drawers need painting and repair.

Basement "bedroom" smelled really musty.... and was not finished... a sheet hanging from exposed floor joists above bed for the listing photo... rest of basement just raw joists, raw concrete, and several unsealed holes to the outside for rodents to enter. No way would we sleep down there.

This property is in a great location-close to downtown Corvallis and close to OSU campus. The place was well-appointed and hanging out on the front porch is a must. Would definitely stay here again.

Wonderful charming house beautifully renovated and well maintained. Very clean. All went well and we had a great time. Check in/out process seamless.

Loved the house, would definitely come again. Property location perfect for walking to campus and downtown. Air conditioning a plus. No dishwasher. Comfortable stay & great communication with property manager.

What a charming house! The most perfect location for spending time at OSU. Everything is walkable. We will be back for sure! Thank you!

What a wonderful property! Location was ideal. furnishings were adorable and just as shown in photos. Kitchen was well stocked. Debi was very attentive and easy to work with! Will definitely stay again. Thanks so much for sharing your lovely home!

Such a beautifully maintained property, literally steps from OSU campus and town. The details of the house, the layout, kitchen utilities, spices, everything we needed to immediately feel comfortable, welcome, and in another era! We will book again next time we visit our son at OSU.

Love the authenticity of the property. Visit with my kiddos at OSU amazing!

Dear VRBO community, This house is a dream home that I wish were mine! We spent a lot of time by the fireplace in the living room. The amount of windows and therefore light coming into each room is wonderful! The location in Corvallis is blocks from Oregon State and a delightful neighborhood to wander around in. We were in heaven and I will recommend to everyone I know to stay at the Verna home!! Best regards, Jodi

You won’t find a better house or location in Corvallis. This was our third time staying at this home. Love!!

This home was the perfect place for my husband and two college-aged sons. We loved it completely. Perfectly restored in a nice quiet neighborhood and walking distance to downtown. We cooked all of our meals at the house, even a prime rib! Mahalo nui loa and we hope to stay again.

We celebrated Thanksgiving with our family. The house was perfect! We had everything we needed and it was welcoming, warm and cozy. Could not ask for a better location as we were easily able to walk to campus for the big game and downtown. We will be back!

Wonderful weekend. The location was ideal, just a short distance from my son's dorm. The cottage is very cute, and the fireplace made the house a wonderful place to gather and spend time together.

Beautiful historic home that was the perfect location from OSU and had everything and more we could want. They thought of every detail and it was so easy to stay there. I hope to stay every time I’m in Corvallis. It’s the perfect home away from home.

We loved the house. We were in town for college tours and it was a perfect location for everything we did. Will definitely be staying there again in the future.

Location location location. What a great home and close to both downtown and OSU. Thank you!!

We loved loved loved this house. The care that has been put into restoring this 100+ year old house is evident and we found ourselves in awe. We loved how close we were to downtown and how incredibly well stocked the kitchen, bedrooms, and living spaces were. We really enjoyed it there.

Our family of four really enjoyed the character of Verna, and the location is convenient to OSU and downtown. There are relaxing spaces inside and out (the porch is fantastic) and the house is charming and comfortable. The property manager was helpful without being intrusive. It was a great experience and we'll definitely check to see if this house is available the next time we're in town.

This was a great property very clean and close to downtown

This is my second time at this house. The location is walking distance to downtown and the university and the grocery store. It’s a short drive to some beautiful wineries. The house has a lot of character and I really liked just hanging out on the porch. Don’t change anything!

Bring paper plates. No dishwasher. Well stocked. One shower.

The check in process was seamless, communication was wonderful, the house was well stocked with anything we may have needed or forgotten. The downstairs allowed for even more space than we realized, private backyard was a huge bonus, the location was FABULOUS and the house was adorable! We were all in love with it! 10/10 would recommend.

Perfect little cozy house. Close to OSU. Walking distance to downtown. Love the fireplace. Perfectly appointed.

This rental was really great. Walking distance to both campus and downtown. Quiet neighborhood. The house was clean and comfortable with everything you will need for your stay (including condiment staples, shampoo/conditioner, laundry detergent, etc). We cooked there a couple nights and ate out a few nights. Great coffee place 5 blocks up the street (there is a coffee machine and ground coffee in the rental, but I enjoyed the walk each morning). Highly recommended and will definitely stay there again when we next visit Corvallis.

Perfect place to stay. Quiet neighborhood and really close to downtown Corvallis for great local restaurants.
