Welcome to
Mount Tom House
We’re so glad you’ll be joining us!
Whether you’re here to celebrate, reconnect with friends and family, or simply enjoy a weekend in the woods, we hope your time here is full of laughter, good conversation, and memorable moments. Mount Tom House is meant to be a place where people gather and stay up late, slow down and reconnect, and find both shared moments and quiet escapes.
Below you’ll find helpful information to get you ready for your stay—directions, details about the house, pet tidbits, and a few other notes to make things easy once you arrive.
If any questions come up before or during your visit, feel free to reach out by email or call/text Juli directly. We’re here to help.
See you soon!

DIRECTIONS
📍 If you use Apple Maps or Google Maps, you can search “Mount Tom House” and will be guided right here!
🏠 Our address is: 34251 Mount Tom Dr, Harrisburg, OR 97446
❓ In the last few miles of the drive, you might scratch your head and wonder “are we going in the right direction?” — you are! The most important thing to note is that Mount Tom Dr is going to transition to a single-lane paved driveway directly ahead of you. You are going to follow the driveway all the way to our house. It’s steep, it curves, & is 1/2 mile long. Look for the Mount Tom House signs at the start and end of our driveway to help guide you the last 1/2 mile!
Please note: at the start of our driveway, you will see a big rock to the left with “34051” — that is our neighbors’ nearly identical house numbers. Do not go left - follow the Mount Tom House sign ahead of you.
🅿️ Once you have driven the 1/2 mile up our driveway, you’ll see the house numbers embedded in rocks and a 3-car garage. You can park in front of the garage or in the gravel parking lot!
🚖 Taxis & Ubers/Lyfts: you will be able to catch taxis/Ubers/Lyfts from Eugene to Mount Tom House. To get from Mount Tom House to Eugene, we recommend scheduling a taxi or pre-scheduling an Uber/Lyft. Uber & Lyft do not provide on-demand services from Mount Tom House at this time!

We have a few requests to ensure a great time for everyone at Mount Tom House:
Wildlife | Please note that there are a plethora of deer on the property. We also have chickens + two cats. If your pup likes to chase other animals, we recommend they stay on leash to avoid adventures into the woods.
Doing Their Business | Pups are welcome to do their business anywhere except the front lawn (the grass & area all around the house). This is a requirement, not an ask. We work hard to keep the grass and garden looking great for future guests and events. $150 fine for each pee/poop on the front lawn.
Trashcans are available on the front patio for poop bags. Unless pups do their business in the woods, poop must be picked up before departure.
Leash Required | Pups must be on a leash and supervised when on the front lawn grass area. This is a requirement, not an ask and ensures they don’t sneakily do their business in this area. They are not required to be leashed around the rest of the property or inside the home.
Linens | If pups sleep with you in bed, we require that a blanket is placed over the duvet & sheets in order to protect them from any sneaky mud stains. A blanket & towel is included in your dog basket.
Please do not use bath towels or bath mats to wipe down your pup! The bath & bedding linens are intended for humans only.
Extra Items | Just inside the front door you will find a basket with some dog toys, extra poop bags, and towels to wipe off dirty paws. If you need anything, just ask!
Communication | If others will be watching your dogs, it is your responsibility to share these rules & expectations.
SMOKING, VAPING & OPEN FLAMES
• smoking/vaping is permitted in the designated outdoor smoking area only
• smoking or vaping is not permitted anywhere else on the property, including inside Mount Tom House or on the balconies
• we take this very seriously, especially during fire season. If these rules are not followed, you will be charged fines and risk immediate termination of the event & lodging at Mount Tom House.
Thank you for respecting our policies!
KITCHEN ACCESS
Kitchen access is for Mount Tom House staff & vendors only.
According to state regulations, guests (you!) are not able to access our kitchen to take or use utensils, wash utensils, store food, prep food, or cook food - just like a restaurant or hotel!
Our kitchen is an open and inviting space and we absolutely welcome conversation while we are there. With that said, view our kitchen like your bedroom. This is the Mount Tom House team’s private space. Just like we do not enter your bedrooms and rummage through things, you absolutely cannot enter or help yourself to our kitchen utensils or space. If you have specific questions, just ask!
Mount Tom House does not provide kitchen items, drinkware, tableware, servingware, and bussing or washing services outside of the meals provided by our team unless arrangements have been made in advance.
On the second floor you have access to:
a separate fridge & freezer to store your items
a microwave
a limited selection of disposable silverware, cups, plates
please note: just like a hotel or camping experience, please bring any additional kitchen utensils, servingware, drinkware, or tableware you might need for meals, snacks, drinks outside of those provided in-house
An important note about coolers:
🧊 Coolers are not permitted inside the house. This is non-negotiable. You’ll notice in the upstairs coffee loft our water-damaged wood floors. This is a result of leaking coolers and inattention.
BREAKFAST
Rise and shine! Breakfast is included at Mount Tom House.
Your hosts have determined breakfast time each morning and we worked together to create feel-good, fueled-up menus for your stay. If you have any menu or timing questions, don’t hesitate to ask!
BABIES & KIDDOS
Let us know if littles are joining and what items we can have available. Some of the things we have on hand include:
high chair
kids’ tableware & drinkware
pack n’ play
portable baby wash tub, soap, washcloths
POOL & HOT TUB
pool | the pool is heated mid-June through September
hot tub | the hot tub is available year-round; if you'd like to use the hot tub, let us know about 45 minutes in advance so we can give it a final boost in temperature and turn on the jets!
important | children & young adults must be accompanied by an adult, always
liability waiver | folks using the pool are required to sign a liability waiver
EVENING WIND-DOWN
Evenings at Mount Tom House are all about enjoying time together—whether that’s laughing over games, sharing stories by the fire, or listening to your favorite tunes.
If your crew is heading to bed before 10pm, we’ll take care of turning off the music, switching off lights, and locking up for the night.
If you’re enjoying a late-night hang past 10pm, we’ll leave it in your hands—just turn off the music and any indoor lights when you’re ready to call it a night.
A few helpful notes:
Outdoor lights will turn off automatically.
The iPad for the music system will be on the kitchen counter for easy shutdown.
Late Night Questions?
Even if you don’t see Juli after 10pm, she’s still at Mount Tom House—she’s off getting some quiet time so she’s bright-eyed for breakfast (and doesn’t burn the bacon!) Call or text her at any hour if you need anything.
FIRST AID & SAFETY
In the event of an emergency, call 911
notify Juli or Craig, as we have volunteer EMT and trained medical professionals who live nearby and may be able to arrive before emergency services

HIKING THE TRAILS
Bring along a pair of hiking boots with you to enjoy the trails!
waterproof hiking boots are highly recommended November - June; the trail will have standing water in some spots & a creek to cross.
Flying Wyrm Easement Trails
our upper trail is a little over 1 mile long and ends at a west-facing lookout point. You will find the start of the trail behind the house. Look for the outbuilding with unpainted cedar shingles and then continue up on the path behind it!
the lookout is on our neighbors' property; they kindly welcome Mount Tom House guests to enjoy the view. Please be respectful of their property and privacy (you'll notice their cabin to the north of the lookout).
in partnership with McKenzie River Trust
Tents Gravel Road
a shorter route to a similar westward view
walk down our driveway, past the green shop and you will see a huge gravel road on your left
pop down there and you’ll find the lookout (.25 miles from the house) as well as where our glamping tents are located in the summer!
you can continue down the gravel road - it pops you down to the bottom of the paved driveway
