Photos and Description of the Portland vacation cottage rental
Green construction cottage with Murphy bed on main level + sleeping loft.

This wooded property is uniquely situated and close to many attractions that include golfing on courses too numerous to mention, hiking, skiing on Mt. Hood, waterfall viewing in the Columbia River gorge, fishing, on nearby Sandy, Columbia, Clackamas, Willamette and Zigzag rivers, rafting, wine tasting, shopping and more. You can stay at Caramore Cottage and go to the Oregon coast and back one day, or Mt Hood (45 minutes) or fishing in the numerous nearby rivers. There are no other homes visible from this green (straw bale) cottage in the woods. Lots of squirrels, deer, owls, birds, trees and ferns. A great spot less than 30 minutes from Portland airport and city center that lets you feel you are away from it all in your own wooded retreat.

If you are planning a remodel in the vicinity and are considering staying in a hotel for a few months, this would be a great alternative. Need to make arrangements well in advance.

Owner/proprietor lives in separate home on gated private prem

Want a Romantic Get Away?: Make arrangements in advance and have flowers and champagne, chocolates or other favorite surprises waiting in the cottage when you arrive.

Guys or girls Get-Away-Nite?: Perfect place to hang out and reconnect with special friends, go for a walk, chat it up and sit around a fire at night.

Like being at a private campground.

In the doghouse and need a temporary retreat?: Quiet contemplation, or need to scream in the woods. Have it your way at this private cottage.

Amazing Cottage!

The property appeared as it did in the photos. THIS PLACE HAS CHARACTER! The owner Carolyn takes care of you as if you are like her family. The bed was comfortable, and the movie system netflix was great. This was a great retreat! There is alot of wildlife around the area, and you will probably see the deer and rabbits, and in the evening you will hear the coyotes. This property is close enough , yet far away enough to the cities and population areas. THANKS Carolyn!

This was a fantastic place. Carolyn was such a sweetheart and made up feel very welcomed. But, we also had our privacy. It was nice and secluded, but close to the city. In my opinion, it was the perfect place. Not to mention, the rate was amazing for what we actually received. The next time I am in the area, I will be sure to contact Carolyn again.

We had a great time at the cottage! It's in a beautiful location - very quiet and relaxing. Quick and easy drive into Portland....got into traffic a couple of times leaving the city, so need to plan around evening commuters. The cottage was clean, and well appointed. Carolyn was very helpful and made sure we had everything we needed! We Loved the fresh eggs from the chickens every morning! Especially our grandson! Really enjoyed the fresh berries, from the corner road side stand, and our trip to Mt. Hood, and all those Hood River cherries! Washington Park, in Portland, is a gem...we spent a lot of time exploring there. Thank you Carolyn, for your hospitality!

Loved Our Stay

5 of 5
Submitted: July 22, 2012 Stayed: July 2012
We stayed here for two weeks and had one of our best vacations ever. We arrived and were pleased to find the cottage to be exactly as described and as presented in the photographs. The cottage is completely charming and peaceful. It was a perfect place to come back to at the end of the day during our extended stay. Carolyn was very welcoming and made sure that we were situated right away. She was a generous and helpful host throughout. The cottage has a lot of privacy, but Carolyn also made sure we knew she was there for any questions and offered many helpful suggestions that made our stay even more enjoyable. She brought fresh eggs,, allowed us to pick blue berries on her property and made us feel very welcome. We also enjoyed the small flock of young hens in a coop just a few yards outside the back door.

The cottage is conveniently located for explorations of the Columbia River Gorge, the Mt. Hood area and for visits into Portland. The hike to Angel's Rest, Sherrad Viewpoint and jazz at Jimmy Mak's in Portland were highlights. We loved our stay here and this would be our first choice to stay for a return visit to the Portland area.

Rest, Relax, Renew!!

Wow! I was completely breath taken by the little cottage and beautiful surroundings. This was our first time using Homeaway and we were just a little apprehensive of what to expect. I followed the site recommendations for payment and confirmation and was very satisfied with the results. Four days of pure relaxation. Waking up to the sound of birds chirping and spectacular views was amazing. The cottage had all the amenities of your own home including WiFi and Netflix. My husband and I made breakfast every morning with the fresh eggs our gracious Host provided and actually saw some wild bunnies and squirrels peek through our window. The cottage is perfect for a couple or maybe even a couple with a small child. The bed we slept on was so comfortable and the heater kept the cottage nice and warm. Our Host was so nice and treated us a like family. The pictures and description on the site are very accurate. This vacation ranks high as one of the best places we have stayed. Thanks again!!
