The Riverfront Retreat-Woods Landing

This beautiful property is right across the I-205 bridge from the PDX Airport, offering a most convenient location for travelers. This home, also known as “Woods Landing”, is a nature preserve consisting of forest, meadows, streams and riverbank. It is located on the banks of the Columbia River with private beach access most times of the year. Beautiful natural habitat and wildlife including deer and eagles make this property a perfect get away.

We do not live on-site, so we do utilize cohosts and are just a phone call away for any questions that arise. We would love to hear about your stay! We do have a long-term tenant/basement renter. There should be little to no contact, and this space has its own entrance so you will not have your private space interrupted. This property is self check-in.

Woods Landing Home and property is part of the Columbia Grove and Woods Landing Preservation Projects, spearheaded by non-profit and community organizations and conservationists in the community to preserve vital sections of the Columbia River habitat for imperiled Chum Salmon. Wood’s Landing is one of the last remaining natural spawning grounds on the Lower Columbia for endangered Chum Salmon. The spawning grounds welcome over 3,000 Chum salmon each year that return to the springs to spawn and renew life. Columbia Land Trust and Columbia Springs Environmental Education Center are partnered with the owners of Woods Landing to preserve this land in perpetuity for conservation purposes. Many wildlife species live on the property including bald eagles, deer, raccoons, rabbits, beaver, and otter. Bald Eagles can often be spotted in the trees by the beach or in the thick forest by the roadway coming into the property (at the edge of the meadow with tree plantings). This property invites in nature in a purposeful way. You may hear, see and experience all levels of nature at this woodsy retreat!

We do have a long-term guest in a completely separate basement entry with a limited side of the house private entry.
Full access to Main House and front/side and back yard/deck area.

The home features a large, sprawling layout with five bedrooms, three bathrooms, two kitchens, three dining areas, and multiple living spaces. This retreat is a home away from home that meets up the old original wood beam high ceilings with unique updated finishes. Most of the house has been recently renovated and gorgeous views of the Columbia River frame nearly every room in the house. The sprawling deck overlooking the Columbia River has a secluded picnic bench with a one-of-a-kind view and provides a perfect space for your whole group. This is truly a piece of the Pacific Northwest that you cannot miss. This home is uniquely set up to provide space and privacy for more than one group with privacy and separate accommodations if necessary.

Perfect for nature seekers! This is not your typical sterile stay, this property is full of life and spunk the whole family can enjoy!
While this home gets a lot of natural wind from being right on the water, we have provided two portable air conditioners and ample fans to make your stay a comfortable one!

Please keep an eye on your children and adults near the water. This is directly on the River, which makes it a breathtaking view, but please practice safety as there are no gates or fences on this property.

This property is in the middle of a wooded area. While we strive to be a pest free home, living in the PNW forest has spiders, and other friendly creatures. Sometimes, these visitors find their way inside. This is a byproduct of where we the house is settled. If you are squeamish about these things, this may not be the retreat for you!

Fireplace is not available for use.

Ring camera at the front door overlooking front entrance

The home may include a decibel monitoring sensor to ensure that neighborhood noise levels are respected. NoiseAware is a smart home device that measures decibel levels throughout the property. It allows us to respond to noise nuisances without disrupting your stay. Tampering is prohibited.
