About this property

Magnificent Home on Banks of the Willamette River, Hot Tub, Fire-Pit, Cornhole, 9 Miles to Downtown

On the main level there are three beautifully appointed bedrooms all with king beds. The one furthest back is slightly larger and has an entire wall of windows with more unbelievable river views.

Descending downstairs, you'll find the lower-level lounge and media area. This cozy and quite room is where the group can sit back and relax while streaming your favorite shows. There are two additional spacious bedrooms with king beds on the lower level as well. They share the second full bathroom. You will also find the washer and dryer on this level if needed.

One of the most special parts of this home is the backyard oasis. A new hot tub has been installed allowing you to soak your troubles away while enjoying the sights and sounds of this riverside paradise. Whether you want a competitive game of cornhole or just to relax around the firepit, there is something for everyone. Please don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions. We are excited for you to be one of our first guests at the River Forest Retreat.

We truly want you to enjoy your time and make some wonderful memories with your group. That being said, this is not a party or gathering house for groups that can't control their noise levels. We have relationships with all of our neighbors who have our direct contact information. Quiet time is 10:00 pm to 8:00 am. Please stay indoors during this time, keep the windows and doors closed and keep the volume to an enjoyable but reasonable level. If it is loud enough to be heard outside in these conditions, it is too loud for you to remain our guest. This property includes a noise alert monitoring system in order to ensure that neighborhood noise levels are respected. Again, please realize we want every group to enjoy their time, laugh, have fun and make memories. These devices are only to ensure noise levels don't reach a threshold that bothers our neighbors. Also, please note there is no electronic video surveillance monitoring pools or spas, or on the interior of the house.

PET FRIENDLY: **There is a $100 pet fee per pet with a maximum of $300 (3 pets). Although we are pet-friendly please note your pet must not be left unattended at the house without you present, even if in a crate/kennel. Failure to adhere to the house rules as it pertains to pets may result in cancellation of the booking with no refund. **

Great view, comfy beds!

The view is beautiful! It's so relaxing to wake up and have a cup of coffee while taking in the river! The neighborhood was pretty and quiet. The dogs enjoyed morning and evening walks with lots to sniff!Our multigenerational family had a great visit and explored Portland and the area and got to come home to a comfy beautiful house!At night, the mattresses were super comfortable and everyone ages 11 to 72 had only good things to say about their sleep!

30th Birthday

The house was beautiful and the backyard was amazing. The neighborhood was quaint and the trees were so pretty. The hot tub was great! The downstairs space accommodated hangouts of 10 people! Perfect for game nights! Close to airport and to downtown but away enough to not be in the hustle and bustle!

Unexpected Serenity

We enjoyed our stay at this lovely home. The view of the river greeted us as we walked through the doors and we watched the river flow throughout our rainy stay. There were plenty of bedrooms and sleeping options including the finished basement which felt comfy and cozy for the young adults in our group. An added bit of charm were the three gas fireplaces, including one in the dining/kitchen area. The travel into the city from this location was doable and we ran into minimal traffic.Thank you for a great weekend.

If you can't tell by the title, the location of this house is wonderful. Other things we appreciated included the five king beds, the two large bathrooms that were not attached to a bedroom (so they are easier for a whole group to access), and the outdoor accoutrements.

Surprise visit

Our stay was amazing. The location is great and our view was beautiful. One of the reasons we picked this house is the king sized beds in all the rooms. Extra family room downstairs was perfect for games or “quiet” time. Spacious, but cozy house. LOVED IT!

Great vacation home

This home was perfect for our extended family. We had 6 adults and 4 children, 7 through 13. The down stairs was perfect hangout place for kids. The king beds are really comfortable. The kitchen is a great place for cooking and talking. Front room has gorgeous view to river. Bathrooms and showers are really nice. The stairs down to river could be much safer. There are 20 concrete steps with no railing, then 17 woodsteps with a wood railing, but steps are uneven. At the end of stairs, you have to sit down then step down on rocks to get to level sand. This beach access is noted in the description. The small beach is great and you can get right into water from here. There is a public access ramp less than 1/2 block from home. Our 81 year old was able to get to beach from here but with assistance. All in all we had a wonderful time and will let others know what a great vacation home this is

Great stay right on the river

Spent a week at this rental. Had a great time. Location was a 10/10. Home is located right on the river banks. Kitchen had everything we needed. Beds were comfy. Interior decor was gorgeous. Just a few things that weren’t exactly as expected: - 1-ply toilet paper in main bathroom. As a woman this isn’t a great experience - at 4am I received a text telling me we were being noisy. My husband and I were dead asleep and were woken by the text. We were not making any noise. No other visitors were with us at this time - getting down to river bank was a bit sketchy. No dock, just some old stairs that have met their lifespan - goose poop all over the back yard. You can’t enjoy the lawn - house is turned over quickly and little details are missed on the cleaning like dead flies on the floor, doors have dust and build up. Exterior covered in cobwebs - BBQ was not working All that said we would stay again because he really it was a comfortable stay and the location can’t be beat. Neighbors were great. The small details are a reflection of the hired maintenance team, not of the owners standards.

Stunning view

We recently stayed at the River Forest Retreat as we were visiting from the East coast for a family wedding in Portland. We spent so much time outside watching the boats and all of the water activities. It's in a lovely neighborhood and many of us took walks around and felt completely safe. The house is perfect and had everything we needed for all 11 of us. Plenty of room for the little kids, (5 and 2) to play. Water and children scare me, but there are many steps down to the river, so the kids were not tempted to go down there on their own. I was in charge of finding the house for all of us. Everyone said, "you nailed it!" Don't hesitate to book this home. You won't regret it.

Beautiful neighborhood, large space right on the river

We needed a home for our family to gather. This was a great house for our needs. Booking, checkin and communication was very easy. The view of the river was great and it is very quiet. And, we got an extra hour for late check out. However, the grill was quite problematic. It was filthy and the electric starter did not work so needed to take the grills off to manually start it with a lighter. I alerted management and they sent someone over within a few hours but the problem wasn’t fixed. The grill was central to our family gathering as grilling is much easier than oven and stovetop cooking to feed 12 people for 3 days.
