Birthday Celebration
Our family of five over 70 yo brothers and sisters got together in our original hometown for a trip down memory lane and this house was perfect for our needs. Relaxing River view, spacious accommodations, well stocked kitchen, bed and bath amenities all fit our needs. Close to town for great restaurants and touring. Couldn’t have been better!!!

Private, quiet and peaceful while having the big city life within 30 minute's drive.
Everything very clean and fully stocked, especially the kitchen. Plenty of clean towels, bedding, etc. Games, deck, BBQ, Internet, TV's w/satellite, access to the river (not for the unsure footed). This place is so quiet and peaceful. A few neighbors nearby that can be seen when driving in, but never saw or heard any of them during the stay. It was also only 5 miles to I-5 where you can drive 30 minutes to Portland/Vanc area or 2 hours North to Seattle, and many towns in between.

A truly peaceful retreat
We wanted to stay somewhere quiet in a natural setting and Peace of the River was that place. A wall of windows on each floor looks into the trees, making us feel as if we were living in the canopy. The sound of the river was a bonus. The owners, Donna and Len, provided detailed check-in information well in advance. There were instructions on using everything and the numerous switches were helpfully labeled. Kudos to the owners for promptly and fairly resolving an issue we had upon check-in. It wasn't the best way to start our stay, but Donna was on top of everything and made things right. The cabin is spacious, well-equipped, and comfortable. Larger parties have space to spread out over 2 floors and 2 outside decks. We grilled out and even had a fire in the fireplace one night, which made things cozy. Due to the remote location, I recommend stocking up on groceries before arrival --the small store in Kalama is pretty good, but has limited selection -- and plan their activities accordingly, as it's a long, winding drive to get from the cabin to the I-5. Cell phone service may not work; we couldn't get any cell reception with Verizon until about 10-15 minutes from the cabin (towards I-5). The WiFi, however, worked great. My rating should be 4.5 stars, because the only issue is, as others noted, the decor is lacking and furniture is quite dated. It didn't detract from our stay, but with some creative flair and new furniture, this place could knock it out of the park!

Fishing on the Kalama
This property is on a great piece of property located on the Kalama River. The property sits high on the road overlooking the Kalama River. The property is a bit tricky finding but the property owner does a great job providing specific instructions. The house has 2 bedrooms and two full bathrooms on the main floor. The bottom floor has a full bathroom and a converted living space turned into a giant studio. The house is furnished with the basic needs in all rooms. The house is dated with its furniture, decorations, and technology. If you are looking for modern times furnished pieces and smart TVs....this is not your place. We were happy with this property and working with the property manager was great.

About the host

Hosted by Donna

Host profile image
We LOVE the quiet natural beauty of this area and we find it a very restful get away from our hectic chaotic lifestyle plus we enjoy the modern & comfortable lodge-like feeling of this home. When we are here we go 'off schedule', reading, napping & watching the 'river parade' and doing whatever suits us whenever we feel like it.

Why they chose this property

So many of the homes along the river are jammed together but this great place sits on over 4 acres, is nestled in the trees and feels secluded and private.
