Kalama River View! Family-Friendly Nature Escape

Tucked into an evergreen glen right across the road from the Kalama River, this charming chalet makes a peaceful - yet easy - escape into Washington's natural splendor. It's a place for beautiful days spent outside, with six kayaks (four double, two single), four innertubes, and a bike provided for your use.

-- THE PROPERTY --

This two-story cabin enjoys a particularly serene location overlooking the woods and the river's rolling waters.

There's so much that's special about the outdoor space here --- a tree-lined lawn where your kids and pets can play, a hammock for afternoon naps, and Adirondack chairs beckoning you to relax and take in the view. Sip your first cup of coffee with a view of the river outside on the deck, spend your afternoons barbecuing on the gas grill, and gather around the firepit in the evenings to roast marshmallows and swap stories of the day's adventures. This home also offers an outdoor movie screen and projector for evening movie watching. The house is a haven for outdoor enthusiasts, whether that means hiking around Mt. St. Helens or playing volleyball, badminton, and basketball at home (a net, hoop, and ball are even provided).

The renovated interior feels both atmospheric and comfortably updated throughout. The kitchen is equipped for your every culinary whim, offering stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, and an adjacent dining area with ample seating. At night, cozy up to stream movies in the living room or den (both with wood stoves), retreat to the home office to log onto the high-speed WiFi, or get a tournament going on the combination pool/air hockey/ping-pong table.

At night, there are three bedrooms to choose from, including two downstairs with twin beds that can be made into kings if desired. Additional sleeping arrangements are found in the den, the office, and the separate converted garage.

-- THE LOCATION --

It feels far away from the rest of the world, yet it's only 13 miles from the conveniences of Kalama and an easy trip from Vancouver (42 miles) or Portland (51 miles).

Disliked: Cleanliness
Not clean. Moldy coffee in the coffee maker, dirty linens in laundry bins in bedrooms, fridge was funky with leftover food, house smelled like wet dog, generally didn't feel clean, yet we paid more than 325 cleaning fee. The ancillary sleeping area/game room was very disheveled and also not clean.

The house was just what we needed for our family gathering. The table was a perfect location to host games for 8! The host was so good about communicating and the house was stocked with anything and everything we could have needed.

This property is fabulous! Plenty of space for our family, with endless things for the kids to do. The roll-up garage game room kept us entertained for hours (darts, pool, air hockey & ping pong) The surroundings are beautiful & include the gorgeous Kalama River directly across the road. The house itself was perfect. I cannot imagine needing anything that was not already available in the kitchen. Great communication with the owner, added to our wonderful experience! We will be back!

Beautiful home!!!

Wow! So many great things to say about this home. The layout is perfect for a larger group giving everyone their own space as well as ample common space. We loved the games in the shop and make s’mores in the fire pit. The house was stoked above and beyond to normal vrbo rentals. Everything was so clean and tidy. The beds were so comfortable too! The owner was a delete to talk to and we will be renting from them again at either this home or one of their others. 10 out of 10 would recommend this home or one of their others.

This is a VERY beautiful and spacious house, by Kalama River. The drive is nice winding countryside road and the property is very safe and peaceful and has all modern comfortable amenities. This was also the MOST well-stocked rental we have been to. The host is extremely helpful, available and proactive and thoughtful. We had a wonderful stay.
