About this property

Countryside pet-friendly bungalow with a pool, just 20 minutes from Portland

Welcome to our private, pet-friendly countryside guesthouse, just minutes away from downtown West Linn and Lake Oswego, and 20 minutes from downtown Portland!

Inside, you'll find a large bedroom on the main floor with a king bed, and upstairs in the loft there is a king bed and in a separate area there is a queen bed if you need additional sleeping options.
The kitchen has everything you need to cook a great meal, and we keep it pretty stocked with condiments, spices, and other essentials. Plus, if you forget something - just ask us and we'll bring it over if we have it!

Relax on the porch, play basketball, pickleball, or badminton, explore the treehouse, or enjoy the in-ground pool and hot tub! We have kids around part-time as well, so sometimes these outdoor amenities will be shared with your hosts.

We look forward to making your stay comfortable, enjoyable, and fun!

The host are very accommodating and very friendly. They did a run through of the entire property with us which I enjoyed. The pool was super fun. The kids had a blast. I love that they also have things for teenagers to do as well. The little loft upstairs are super cute like that the kids had their own hangout spot as well. Definitely recommend they’re very pet friendly as well.

Thank you for such a thoughtful review! We love hearing that you enjoyed the peaceful country setting while still being close to everything Portland has to offer. It sounds like the patio became a favorite spot, and we’re so glad you were able to take advantage of the sports court and pool during your stay. It was truly a pleasure getting to know you, and we’re especially grateful for your kind words about our family. Creating memorable experiences for our guests is what we strive for, and we’re delighted we could be a part of yours. We hope our paths cross again someday!

GREAT LOCATION

We truly enjoyed our time in a beautiful country setting, close to everything. We especially loved the outdoor patio for breakfast and dinner. The sports court (basketball and pickleball) was a HUGE bonus, as well as a super nice saltwater pool. Can’t say enough about our great hosts (Sarah, James and Hannah) who were always available to ensure our stay was memorable.

Hearing that you enjoyed relaxing on the patio and making memories around the pool and sports court brings a smile to our faces. Thank you for your generous comments about our family. Guests like you are the reason we love hosting, and we truly appreciate you taking the time to share your experience.

The hosts were wonderful and very accommodating to us and our pets. They even graciously let us check out late when my wife had a last-minute work meeting come up and no guest was slated to check in the next day.The house is in a really beautiful part of West Linn, and there was plenty of stuff to keep my kids busy between the basketball and pickleball court.

Very welcoming guests, that gave us a tour and explained everything. Even though we showed up late in the evening. Wish we could have spent more time enjoying the quiet relaxing environment during our stay, but we were there for a tournament and didn't get the chance. Very well maintained inside and out. Will be back again.

If you have the ability to book this place, JUST DO IT. This was one of our favorite VRBOs of all time. James and Sarah are wonderful hosts. The pool is really fun, including a springy diving board, and the pickle ball and basketball court was also a nice addition. The property is close to Portland and retail stores, but the feel of the neighborhood is private and secluded.

AMAZING HIDDEN GEM

if you’re looking for a place to stay this hidden gem is the spot! I stayed here with my family of 5 and 2 dogs and we all enjoyed it! Family friendly and they have everything for the kids to enjoy. The hosts were amazing and made sure we were okay and had everything we needed every day. Lovely neighborhood filled with beautiful horses on the drive there. Will definitely book to stay here again!

We could not have asked for more. James and Sarah were wonderful. We had our own beautiful private get away and they were always available if or when we need anything. We did not need much of anything the property has everything in it that would you have in your own home and probably more. You can’t go wrong with this listing very highly recommended. These pics showed what we did and then everyday we would come home to this kick ass property.

Perfect spot for our stay to come cheer on our travel baller! We loved the peaceful and safe location, clean and spacious pool with diving board and spa, and pickleball and basketball court. The house was a perfect size and fit for me (the mom), MIL, and 10 year old son. MIL got her own room while I enjoyed the private loft with desk to be able to get some work down without feeling closed off in a room. My 10 year old son loved his sleeping nook with queen bed. I thoroughly enjoyed morning runs though the rolling hills. So peaceful and beautiful! The hosts were amazing. Super friendly, accommodating, and helpful. While they live on the property and you will most likely see them throughout the day like we did, they were great about not making you feel like you were invading their space. They were very respectful about having guests in the guest house. Would love to stay there again!

I'm from Portland, so I can help you find some great things to do in the area! My partner and co-host, James, and I each have three kids, so you may see some of us out and about in the yard!

Why they chose this property

We love the quiet, secluded countryside area. There are beautiful countryside walks, and there is amazing bird watching and star gazing, yet we are close enough to Portland to enjoy the city scene when wanting that vibe.

What makes this property unique

We are the only property in the Portland area that has a pool, hot tub, sports court (with everything needed for basketball, pickleball, and badminton), and is also pet-friendly.
