About this house rental
Fully furnished and decorated, this house is very secluded Victorian on 45 Forested acres built in the 90's perched over a hillside with great views on acreage. It's 6 bedrooms are able to accommodate 12 guests with more space to spread out if needed. There are nearby birdwatching, hiking, and natural areas. Sauvie Island is just a 4 minute car ride away. Heading into downtown Portland for dinner or attractions will take you 17 to 20 minutes door to door in most cases. •For larger gatherings: •This home is a great place to feel like you're a hundred miles from the city. Very private and quiet. •Most rooms set up with Web TV (ROKU) devices. •Fully stocked kitchen. Bring your own food, replace what you use from the pantry. Guest Access Guests have access to the entire home but for a storage room. This includes the main floor with two suites (own bathrooms), living, dining rooms and kitchen, the second floor with two bedrooms, shared bath, loft, and a third floor tower for storm watching, star gazing, or pretending you're a pretty pretty princess (kids LOVE it). The daylight basement level has a pool table and TV lounge, two more bedrooms, wet bar, laundry, and a family bath. Interaction with Guests I may meet guests for check in or provide door code and communicate via email or text. My presence is very minimal and apart from being available via phone, I may be doing maintenance on the grounds, but try to reserve that for when visitors are not present. The Neighborhood McNamee is a quiet rural street in the hills just beyond Forest Park. The house is set back far from the road. You will have a sense of being nestled in the forest on a perch with a great view Northward. Getting around The nearest public transit is the city bus that goes as far as Sauvie Island, just 2 miles short of the house. You will certainly need a vehicle. For pets: Single pets for shorter term stays. Must not be left unattended

The owner met us for check-in. He is gracious and easy to talk to and responsive to questions/requests. Our group of 12 was very comfortable and found ample space to spread out. The kitchen is well stocked with plenty of cook/bake ware, cutlery, flatware, various glassware and dishes.
The house is fun to explore with a lighted moon phase graphic built into the dining room floor. It is a very private and quiet location.

This property worked great for the 8 of us traveling from the Seattle area to the Portland area for a full week of golf in the region. There are plenty of golf courses within easy driving distance. We brought and cooked our own food, so I can't comment on the nearby eateries, but I've been told there are several nearby. The house is great, with plenty of room for all of us, and the amenities like the pool table and TV room were great. Brian and Kathie were easy to work with. The setting is very secluded, and the views from the turret were worth the effort to climb the stairs.

We stayed at this property with all of my husband's siblings and their spouses. There were six rooms with either a King or Queen bed in them. It was a perfect fit for all of us and we enjoyed the property very much. We even were able to pick some wild blackberries that we enjoyed with some vanilla ice cream. We had no problems with the property. We enjoyed the views from the back porch, but the trees could use a trim for an even better view. I would highly recommend this property if you are in Oregon.

A group of us stayed here a few days while in town for a wedding. Its quiet and peaceful. Perfect for the mornings, with a great view, to relax and get ready for our days in the city. Everything we needed to do was no more than 20 to 30 minutes away. We prefer to be away from the city when its time to shut down. Its an older house but clean. Improvements are constantly being made so expect this place to only get better beyond this review. Brian was really friendly and gave good advice on some good tourist places to adventure to. There were no problems to have him attend to but we knew he was there if we needed. They even let us extend checkout after making sure there was not another guest right behind us, very grateful for that!
Very happy with our stay!

The house was quiet and secluded, which was very nice for 10 people to stay at and not worry about being too loud.
The house does need some minor upgrades and repairs but it is still was very nice.
The house does not have central air conditioning. It does have one window air conditioner, but leaving windows open at night does cool down the inside well.

This house was so beautiful and had so much space for our two families. The house could use some kids dishes and there were no towels hooks in the master room, which was a little strange. But otherwise, no complaints. Would recommend and stay again.

Kathie was so helpful and always available for any questions. We had multiple families staying at the house for my daughter’s wedding and it was perfect. The beauty surrounding the house was the icing on the cake!

The house was terrific for our group of 12. Plenty of space to spread out and to gather too. Could use some maintenance, such as replacing the damaged carpets in the upstairs bedrooms. A second refrigerator would be a terrific addition to the home. Easy access to St. John's and Hillsboro too. We wanted to make use of the tower room but it was a little dirty with limited seating options.
Overall we would consider booking this property for our next gathering

Nice House. Obviously ongoing updates. This was our 1st time renting a house. They had just finished cleaning when we pulled up. House is not new but all of the important items have been update and worked well except for the WiFi. I would put mesh routers/points in a house this large. The kitchen was well stocked with equipment and standard things like sugar and spices. There were some spiders in the basement and we did use the basement bedrooms so some eradication was needed.

We recently stayed at this property with five older couples--all family. The space was wonderful with a large kitchen, huge dining table, and plenty of bedrooms. Brian, the host, was incredibly attentive and responsive. He even went out to get us a few extra chairs for the dining table and answered other questions quickly. Rain or shine, it is a lovely setting.

We look for an out of the way location that can accommodate 6 large men for a weekend on cooking and gaming and this place suited our needs perfectly. The owner is a very nice person that was willing to help us reschedule when COVID reared its ugly head with no hassles or heartache what-so-ever. The property was in a great location and had good internet access for our needs. We would like to extend our thanks to Mr. King for his help in making this a great RETREAT this year!

We loved everything about our host and the house ! Off the beaten path with the most amazing views ! House is so clean and lots of room for our group of 11 from age 11 to 50 (it was a 50th birthday weekend getaway) We all could gather around the table for games and meals but also have lots of privacy when wanted. We loved going to St Helens Halloween Town and Powell’s bookstore in Portland. Highly recommend! And we hope to be back again soon !

Although this property was a bit dated I would give it an awesome review due to several things:
1) Owner communication was superb--very quick and
personable responses
2) The views from this home are exquisite!!
3) Although there were only 3 couples in our group, the
home could have accommodated twice as many. The
home was equipped with everything we needed to
prepare the few meals we ate there.
4) The home which was in an isolated area was beautifully
situated in a woodsy area and very accessible to the
Willamette Valley wineries which we had come to visit.
5) The price was very reasonable for what this home had
to offer!
This home added to the awesome time we had in this region
of the United States. I would definitely recommend it to anyone needing a place to stay in the Portland area.

We had a wonderful time...property was as disclosed, very comfortable and clean and detached from Portland enough that we felt like we were in the country, even though we were only about 15 minutes from Portland. We would stay at this property again if we come back to this area. The owner/host was very accessible and accommodating.
