About Carla St John
Friendly, responsive and service-oriented -- I love to share this beautiful house with vacationers. I try to be completely up-front about all aspects of my house rentals --- my goal is for you to have a wonderful and memorable stay.
Carla St John purchased this House in 1986
Why Carla St John chose Black Butte Ranch
Black Butte is a premier destination resort and this house is a jewel located in a very private part of the Ranch. What drew me to this house in particular was the amazing amount of natural light it captures, year-round! It is both private (because it's up on a hill) and airy (because of the big windows and high ceilings). It's a contemporary style with extensive use of clear cedar indoors. I like to keep furnishings simple, but beautiful.
What makes this House unique
The Ranch offers so many recreational opportunities, including horse riding, swimming, golf, but my favorite things to do is to just "be" in Black Butte and maybe take a bike ride along the many paths, that travel through forests and across grassy meadows.

Perfect Place
The house was perfect for our family. It had a great open space to hang out, play games and build puzzles. The deck was also big and open with a propane BBQ and jacuzzi. We had a view of the 13th hole. The kitchen was fully equipped. We had a little trouble with the induction stove, but got the hang of it. ( we are use to gas burners). New pool within walking distance and glaze meadow pool is a short drive. Most importantly there is AC. BBR was in triple digits while we were there. Owners are very easy to work with and respond quickly to any questions. We will definitely be back!
Very nice house!!
This is a very nice house! It was clean upon arrival. The kitchen was well stocked, and it was well-stocked with some of the basic items like paper towels, kitchen spices, etc. Very open design. Great hot tub.
great stay
Very responsive owner and great house!
Amazing
This house is absolutely incredible. We stayed for about a week and a half and truly did not want to leave! The location was perfect for us, we felt we had total privacy. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook our meals and plenty of space for two cooks! We really can't say enough good things about this property, and the owner was very easy to work with. We would definitely recommend this property to anyone looking for top notch accommodations.
Great Place
My wife and I spent a week at this property in mid-September, with some friends from the Bay Area, and enjoyed every minute. Great place with a very easy to deal with owner, who obviously takes pride in her property.
The open Great Room is a real plus for the home, and the bedrooms are large. We found everything well kept, and the kitchen well stocked with dishes and utensils. The Wi-Fi worked great, and cell phone service is good throughout the house and surrounding area.
Either a positive or negative depending on your outlook, is the location of the home which is about as far from the main gate as you can get. A good 10-minute drive, but relax and enjoy the scenery. The owner points out you should not try to use a GPS to find the home, and she is absolutely correct. We tested our car GPS, and Google Maps and Apple Maps on our cell phones, and none could accurately find their way to/from the home. Use the map they provide you at the welcome center.
We are looking forward to returning.
Glad you found my tip about using the map useful. The streets of Black Butte Ranch are forested and beautiful , winding, not very well lit, seem to double back, and difficult to navigate at night or in the snow. Getting out is sometimes more challenging than getting in, so keep the map with you!
Love love love!!!
Gorgeous house! Wonderful owners...very friendly and responsive. This house has everything you'll need and more. Kitchen is well stocked with nice pans (not always easy to find in a rental!), dishes, silverware, etc. The hot tub is AWESOME and really fun that it's right outside the living room. Having AC was a luxury as well! We can't say enough about how well appointed the house is. We had a 4 adults and 2 children and there was plenty of room for more if needed. Thanks so much for sharing your beautiful house!!!
Thanks so much for the nice words about the house, and your stay there! I really appreciate it when people take the time to write a review. Best wishes and please return!
