About this property

Cozy dwelling on the Washougal River nestled in plush woodlands with the dramatically beautiful Dougan Falls located ON the property. Less than an hour from Portland Airport, this retreat offers a vibrant riverscape and access to the many forest trails or nearby Columbia Gorge--or just sit out on the riverfront deck and be soothed by the sounds of falling water and birdsong. Lots of inspiration for artists, writers, readers, thinkers, and contemplators--or just a chill getaway for someone who's been working too hard! And oh yes, the flow of the waterfall at night is wonderful to float you right into dreamland.

Our 4 bedroom house sits on 28 acres that includes Dougan Falls. As pictures reveal, this is a true getaway. The house is equipped with WiFi. There are two TVs, both with Direct TV. Very comfy beds with clean, quality bedding.

In winter it is very private and on hot summer days you will see people swimming and floating on the river. There is a deck overlooking the Washougal River that is perfect for having a BBQ. Plenty of parking and a private drive with a gate. Large enough for RVs. If you really want a get-out-of-town experience and only a short drive from Portland, this is it.

We have a Ring doorbell by the front door. Also, a driveway camera that shows the entry driveway to the street.

Quiet Paradise

Just what we needed to rejuvenate. This was the most peaceful location we have stayed at. The sound of the river is hypnotic. Such beauty! Everything was perfect.

Fantastic Views

The view of the falls is amazing. The property is very remote. Home was clean and warm since we visited in colder weather. A cute fireplace adds to the warmth and ambience of the home. Beds were amazing. It is an older home but renovations are definitely in process. We had a total of 8 at times and never felt crowded. The sunroom is a definite plus. If there is inclement weather or just chilly, it's great to sit and watch the river while drinking your morning coffee. A book is available for directions on how to work appliances and what to do. Very helpful and detailed. My only regret is that there we didn't have more time to explore the area close to the house. Lots of trails and things to see. The home is about a 35-40 minute drive into town. There is a convenience store which is much closer for quick items. Very nice time. Thank you Tom and Teri for allowing us to use your home. KB

Amazing!

We just spent 3 magic days at the waterfall property celebrating a 50th wedding anniversary. The layout of the house is perfect, comfortable and spacious with great transitions to the outside world. And ...the outside world is absolutely breath taking. The power of the mountains and the roaring river/waterfall will amaze. Thank you so much, we are already planning our return.

About the host

Hosted by Tom McGrane

Tom and Teri are both retired and love to travel around the country in our small travel trailer. We spend half our time at home enjoying the river and the falls. But getting away to visit friends and family or camping are something we also enjoy. We have been very hard at work updating our home.
