About this property

Columbia River paradise - King tides are coming

Breakfast is breathtaking with an unobstructed view of the Columbia River and Columbia River Bar (Ocean). Since all bedrooms have water views, you can wake up to sunrise over the water as ships come in an out over the Bar. Upstairs is a good get-away for you to read and rest, or for the kids to do their thing. Watch the sun go down and the ships cross the Bar. Storm watching on the water is a fantastic experience. Then, off to Astoria or Long Beach for the day or the backyard beach. Use the boat slip. EV level-2 charging onsite.

Great!

Excellent location and one of the most beautiful places we have stayed. The kitchen was missing a few things like a rolling pin, but it was quite well stocked with spices, pots and pans, and other kitchen implements.

THE place to stay!

We feel so fortunate to have found this special property and can’t wait to go back! The home is warm and inviting and was perfectly set up to welcome us when we arrived - but the VIEW…is even better than advertised…we saw lots of birds from the windows and two bald eagles flew into the back yard on our last morning there. The house is well stocked, and the host, Chris, was great to work with and was very quick to respond when we had questions - beds were comfortable, as was the furniture - there is a nice gas grill and a hammock to spend your afternoon in, and watching the sunsets there was so peaceful - The community of Chinook is quiet and and is only 10 minutes away from Astoria - folks were friendly, and Chinook Coffee is a nice spot to grab some snacks, smoothies and coffee - We have been renting 2-3 vacation homes each year for over 20 years, and this one is our favorite for sure! Thanks for making this stay

Chinook!!

Spectacular, this place is very comfortable well taken care of and just awesome! We enjoyed our stay even with some rough weather. When we did get outside it was beyond our expectations. Host was always available when we had questions or needs. Best Vrbo we have stayed in. Highly recommend. Thank you for a wonderful family get together.

A Great Place Stormy or Sunny

Stepping through the front door you may be overwhelmed with the breathtaking river and ocean view that greets you. Once you manage to tear your eyes from that exceptional view, you see a comfortable and tasteful interior with more than enough cozy seating/lounging for a large family or group. The well appointed house contained all the amenities and necessities our thoughtful host provided, well beyond what you might expect.

About the host

Hosted by Chris Shepherd

Juanita and I call Chinook home. This is our future retirement home and we are sharing it now as we get ready for that period of our lives. The house continues to be a work of love as we restore it back to its original glory. Please enjoy your stay, whether it is one night or a week. Relax, have fun, relax some more.

Why they chose this property

Our home is unbelievable in its views (ocean, river, bay, mountains, sunsets, sunrises, Bald Eagles), its location (Astoria, Ilwaco, Long Beach), privacy (2-acres on the water and off the road), beach (~380 feet of water front), family gatherings (large house, large yard, and a County park 1/8 mile to the South). The home is warm, cozy, large enough to get lost and read, and small enough for coffee time around the fireplace.

What makes this property unique

63 ft from the water. You get to experience both high tide (up to the rocks) and low tide (1/4 mile of sand). Winter storms are wonderful to experience sitting in the breakfast nook with a cup of coffee or hot chocolate. The marina is 1/2 mile up the road where you can dock your boat during your stay. Fish for salmon or go crabbing without having to travel.
