About this property

The Getaway Base

Welcome to The Getaway Base - your jumping off point for local PNW adventures. This cozy home is nestled in between Multnomah Village and downtown Lake Oswego in a quiet, family-friendly neighborhood. The entire house is yours - 2BRM 2Bath on the main level, TV room in the basement, fenced backyard, and large driveway out front. Within walking distance you'll find multiple restaurants, a dog park, forest walking trails, 7-Eleven and Capitol Hwy deli market.

The space
This is a split-level home. The main level is upstairs, with the TV room on the lower level.

Main Level:
· The kitchen is fully stocked with everything needed to cook together.
· The dining area seats 4 and sits next to the living room in an open floor plan.
· The living room looks out to the backyard through a large sliding glass door. This is also where you'll find games and a Bluetooth Klipsch speaker, allowing you to set the mood with your favorite music.
· Down the hall you'll find one bathroom followed by the two bedrooms (the second bathroom is through one of the bedrooms). Both rooms are equipped with a dresser, closet space, and a comfortable queen mattress.

Lower Level:
·Downstairs is the TV room with a couch and a smart TV with streaming and casting capability.
·Behind the couch is a twin daybed with a trundle that pulls out for an additional twin mattress. (Note: there is no bathroom downstairs)

If you time your trip just right in the Spring, you are rewarded with the gorgeous bloom of the two large cherry blossom trees that dominate the front yard. They'll burst in a bright white toward the end of March, and fade into a soft pink lasting through mid to late-April.

In the Summer you are 13 minutes from paddle boarding on Oswego Lake, newly opened to the public! Bring a board and some snacks and you have the perfect summer afternoon swimming among some of the area's most incredible homes, then drying off and indulging in downtown Lake Oswego's restaurant scene for dinner.

If your happy place is on a trail surrounded by the lush greenery of the PNW, take advantage of the small, unmarked network of trails that is Loll Wildwood, just two blocks from your front door. Looking for a little more mileage? 12 minutes east you'll find yourself in Tryon Creek State Park, a 658-acre forested area with trails for hikers, horses and dogs.

As described, comfortable accommodation; good space for our group of six. Quiet residential area; a few shops within walking distance & grocery/sbux/McD all a short drive away. We appreciated the kitchen supplies and games. Host was responsive & kind through vrbo messaging.
