The Nest- A Peaceful Apartment near the Willamette River

The Nest was completed in 2022. It is a fully furnished 490 SF studio/guest house, with a private entrance and dedicated driveway parking. We are located in Jennings Lodge, 15 minutes south of Portland; close enough to enjoy, far enough to relax, feel safe, and enjoy the Willamette River just across the road. This peaceful hideaway is ideal for a single visitor or a couple.

  • The California Condor was a common sight along the Columbia River in Lewis and Clark's day.  By the early 1980's, there were only twenty-two left on the face of the planet, all in California.

Today, thanks to a massive effort to re-populate the species via in-captivity pairing, there are some two-hundred members.  But their recovery is far from assured.

The Oregon Zoo has undertaken its own recovery effort whose ultimate goal is the re-introduction of the species into the protected wilderness area around the Columbia River Gorge.  In short, to bring them home.

For now, they live out their days in a vast, outdoor aviary designed specifically to mimic their habitat in the wild.

If you have never seen one up close before, I urge you to come take a look. They are larger than any flying bird you will ever see, unless you go to Peru.  And though black and white practically from head to toe, their plumage shines and reflects the light like dark, polished metal.

If that doesn't suit your fancy, I will tell you that, as with all big birds, if you wait around long enough, they will do something so awe-inspiring that it will take your breath away, and something so goofy that you will laugh out loud.

Either way, you won't be bored for a second.

Peaceful Spot!

I was looking for a peaceful spot for a 6 night stay and this darling studio was perfect. Host even supplied a twin air mattress for my grandaughter to stay a few nights. Pros: Kitchen, Bath, Walk in closet fully supplied, convenience to shops & eateries. Lots of trees and natural light. Cons: Full size bed. Stairs. But overall a wonderful place to unwind and I saw a beautiful buck one morning.
Stayed 6 nights in Jun 2025
