Well maintained and up to date everything. A shame the sauna was out of order. Might want to specify grill is charcoal vs gas. Enjoyed our stay.

We were not told in advance that Lake Otswego across the street cannot be accessed from the property. We were threatened and then fined for walking across the street. The owner held a $1500 deposit for damage and did not return it to us.

This home is an absolute gem! From the moment we arrived, everything felt welcoming, spotless, and thoughtfully prepared. It was the cleanest and coziest rentals I’ve ever stayed in — I will absolutely be booking again this winter! The snow trails and ski trails are nearby so we will definitely take advantage of this! The location is peaceful and serene, with two bright blue kayaks waiting for us to take out on the nearby state park waters. Every room was immaculate, smelled wonderful, and showed off the home’s fresh renovations. You can tell the owners and management company truly care about creating a beautiful, comfortable space.The property is also a smart home, so entry was effortless. Outside, we enjoyed a beautiful patio deck, a grill for easy meals, and a perfectly placed fire pit for cozy evenings.Our property manager was exceptional — professional, accommodating, and full of great local restaurant tips. He even left us a bottle of wine, which was such a kind touch. Even though our stay was only one night (and most rentals require at least two), he went above and beyond to make it happen.Van Treese Management gets my highest recommendation, as does this rental. It’s worth every penny — and then some!
