About this property

Peaceful Elegance in the country near the Deschutes River

This is a one of a kind property that is guaranteed to be remembered. This starts with a scenic 2.5 mile drive down a private road to a farmhouse surrounded by wheat fields and mountain views. The driveway will take you through a canyon with scenic Wapinitia Creek trickling below.

Just when you think the road is not headed anywhere, you will see a house come into view surrounded by some old barns with views of Mt. Hood, Mt. Jefferson, and Mt. Adams. Though old, this house has been completely updated with new windows, doors, paint, plumbing, floors, decks, bedding, furnishings, and a hot tub.

This is the ultimate place to relax, as you are away from everyone, as the private road ends at this house. You can enjoy the sounds of the morning birds while sipping coffee on the deck. You can enjoy watching the sun set over Mt. Hood in the evening with deer in the yard. You can bbq while the kids play basketball. You can spend the day on the river and come back to a private ranch retreat to soak in the hot tub and watch your problems disappear.

You may be lucky enough to be at this house during wheat harvest, where we will be hurrying to put our annual crop of wheat in the grain bins near the house, or in the fall where we are hurrying to get the crop planted. Regardless, we think you will enjoy your time away from the city and can get fully refreshed as our guest out here on the Natural Pasture Ranch.

This property is located just 10 miles from the tourist town of Maupin, which has fishing, rafting, dining, and a wonderful market. This property is fully furnished and should have everything you need to cook, prepare, and store food at the house.

Lastly, we will limit 1 night stays to groups less than 4. We will do 1 night stays, but only to small groups of 4 or less, or a single family unit. We won't force a 2 night minimum as most do, but we will not accept big groups for just a single night. Thank you for understanding.

Stunning Home & Beautiful Property!

Very peaceful & beautiful home in the country! Loved how tastefully updated the house was, but still had the wonderful charm of the old farmhouse, with the original doors & woodwork. Kevin was the most gracious host & was very attentive! We will definitely be back! Thank you for sharing your beautiful home & property with us!

Expand your Horizons

This place is lovely and comfortable for a group of friends who want to spend time together, cook together, relax together. And yet there’s enough room that private time can be had when you need it. It’s hard to find any flaws in the accommodations. We’ll certainly be back.

Wonderful farm experience

The renovated and upgraded farmhouse sits on a plateau with an amazing view of Mt. Hood and a glimpse of Mt. Jefferson. The interior is well-appointed and comfortable and has a comfortable porch and hot tub. The farm experience includes a few steers and three roosters who were polite enough to crowed in the morning away from the house and did not wake us. It is located just a few miles from Maupin known for its river rafting on the Deschutes River and there is a well-known scenic cycling route along the river and though the countryside.

Relaxing vacation house

The house was great. Dining room was big and living room was spacious with enough seats for all of us . Work for a family of 4 and a couple, but would really love to have a second bathroom.The view was amazing. Wheat fields, canyon, Mt Hood, Mt Adams and maybe Mt Jefferson. Plenty of space for my kids to play around. Host/owner was very nice. Would really love to come back.

A Rare Find

This was our third stay here. Once again, Kevin and Misty were great hosts. This house and the surrounding acreage sit on a plateau, surrounded on all sides by rock walls. Peaceful is an understatement. We trekked to the rim of the Deschutes canyon on this trip which we hadn’t done on previous visits. Just a nice time all around. Thanks again!

PPP-Peaceful, Private, & Perfect

We enjoyed a peacefully quiet stay in a nature filled environment. We were greeted by many deer, chickens, & goats. We were surrounded by vast skies, pastures, & million dollar mountain views. We watched bunnies, squirrels take dust baths, killdeer birds & raptors, & enjoyed hearing the horses talk. The stars were amazing! And so was the gorgeous spacious house. And so we're the hosts! Kevin & Misty are kind & helpful. If you want to get away from the city, the traffic & noise-come here.

Seclusion and relaxation

This property is perfect for getting away and resetting. A mile or so from the next nearest residence it feels great to be able to remove yourself from the hustle and bustle of life and be able to take in the scenery and fantastic views of the stars with nearly no light pollution. The owner was very communicative and above and beyond helpful for any questions or issues we ran into. Would definitely book again.

Remote and peaceful

A remote farmhouse in the country on a gravel road. Very peaceful and quiet. A good place to relax and connect with our group again. Not for those who need to be in the center of the action. We loved it.

Labor Day Trip

Lovely farm house in the high desert. With views of Mt Hood, sagebrush and hay fields. Star gazing from the hot tub was amazing. We saw deer, quail, rabbits and coyotes. Plus the owners cows and horse to view from the back porch. The toaster didn’t work very well and the pans were a little scraped up, but it didn’t detract from the magic at all, what a gorgeous place”? The host, Kevin and his family were so welcoming. They checking in with us to make sure we we’re doing well and if we needed anything. This was an amazing stay in a unique environment.

Amazing farmhouse off the beaten path

Ok.. so the house is in the middle of nowhere, you drive about 5 miles on a gravel road to get there but the house is absolutely beautiful/charming/peaceful. The views and the sunsets are incredible. We had a group of 4 couples and we were bit concerned about sharing one bathroom but the house was by far the nicest and cleanest looking one available for our dates. We brought some poo-pouri and it was fine. There never seemed to be a wait for the restroom and all the rooms had mirrors so girls used them to get ready. The star gazing is unreal and the owner was extremely kind and helpful. Would highly recommend!

Weekend in Maupin

We could not be more pleased with our choice of accommodations. The farmhouse has been beautifully updated, both inside and out, and Kevin and Misty went out of their way to make our stay everything we could hope for. We especially loved the covered deck area, perfect for sitting anytime of the day, with the hot tub right next to it for anyone who wanted to enjoy a relaxing soak. The peace and quiet and the unique location was just what we wanted. I have to mention that we ended up with a flat tire and before we knew it Kevin noticed it and had it all fixed for us. We appreciated his kindness very much. It was “above and beyond”.

Cool farmhouse with amazing views

This place is unique. It really feels like you are out on a remote farm. Beautiful scenery. House was nicely updated and had all the basic needs covered. We saw and heard some wildlife (e.g., coyotes, snakes, lizards), which we enjoyed but prospective renters should understand. Kevin is a terrific host. Very available and communicative. We look forward to staying again.

AMAZING GIRLS GETAWAY!

A group of girlfriends and I were looking for a place to get away for some R&R and this place could have not been more perfect! The house is beautiful with plenty of rooms for guests. The furniture and beds are unlike above at rental properties and we’re super comfortable and clean! The house has been remodeled from an old farmhouse into an adorable country chic home with amazing decorations and all the amenities you could need, the outdoor covered patio/porch was the perfect place to gather and enjoy one another. It is evident the owners have invested a lot of time to make this home look and feel wonderful! The isolated location offered the perfect opportunity to slow down and just enjoy people! The large open kitchen was great for group cooking and games. Hope to visit for an annual girls weekend and would love to return with my family as well! A+ hosts A+ property! Must visit!

Great remote getaway

Beautiful setting on a working ranch. We loved the remoteness! It was very quiet and peaceful. But, there was everything we needed, a hot tub, a full kitchen that was well stocked, a beautiful hike to the river overlook and the ability to watch anytime wanted on the living room tv. We loved it!

Truly a gem!

This farmhouse was the ultimate getaway for our family. The house had everything we needed and some things we didn't even know we needed! The location is utterly peaceful, surrounded by only farmland and incredible views in all directions. The smell of sagebrush and the sound of the wind. We can't wait to come back soon!

Natural Pasture Ranch Gem

This was and is not your typical VRBO rental, but it is magnificent if you love natural beauty and and the serenity that a rural setting can provide. The home is wonderful and comfortable and has everything you need to make your stay enjoyable. The owners are top notch and Kevin will make sure you are well looked after. We will certainly be back.
