The view was amazing! The house was just as beautiful! There was everything we needed there. There were two other parties that stayed in a portion of the house and we didn’t even hear them come in. We will definitely book this place again when we travel out there to see family.

This property is VERY nice and clean with an awesome view. Judy the host was extremely communicative and worked with us to have a later check out time due to our son's golf tournament. My only negatives were as pretty as the view is, you definitely heard nothing but noise from I-5. The steepness of the driveway and parking should be noted in description. I can't imagine trying to navigate that in the winter months.

Relaxing stay at a beautiful property

The location of the property at the top a bluff overlooking the Columbia River provides for wonderful views (which were especially enjoyed at sunset). The outdoor balcony spaces are nicely set up to allow for enjoying the view or or enjoying an outdoor meal or conversation. It's located in a great location just north of Portland that made for easy access to the city and a good transition point for work/travel in Washington. Restaurants and grocery and other shopping are nearby as well. The property is as beautiful inside as out. The kitchen and living room spaces are spacious, and all the windows make it possible to enjoy the beautiful views (with curtains for privacy if preferred). The lovely library room is an added bonus and worked well as a space for working. It'd also be a great space for games or gathering if the weather didn't allow for use of the outside spaces. The bedrooms as well were comfortable. Overall, everything needed was provided, and the kitchen was very well stocked (including some snacks). There was a question that came up while I was there and the owner was responsive (even though out of the country), so that was very much appreciated. Overall, the rental is beautiful and I would highly recommend it!
