We just spent August thru November on this floating home & cannot say enough good things about it.
I don’t even know where to begin… James’s floating home was the most comfortable VRBO that we have ever rented. We’ve been using VRBO since 2008, at least 1 to 3 times per year. Everything was thought out & versatile. Comfortable seating & beds and the kitchen did not leave you for wanting anything.
The front porch is covered is heaven, we spent many days/evenings out on it.
The home’s location in the Moorage could not be better! You see the sunrise out the front windows & the sunset out the back. I loved getting up early in the AM & watching the fog roll in & then just magically disappear. It is pure entertainment watching… every sort of watercraft that you can imagine, plus people fishing, swimming, sail surfing etc. The wildlife is so entertaining, there is even a resident beaver & birdsong fills the air!
The moorage is well maintained, as well as being well lite. We walked most nights up & down all the boardwalks & enjoyed the ambiance the lighting offered. I don’t know how many floating homes there are, but there must be at least 150 & they are all different, from sophisticated to whimsical it is pure entertainment.
Across from the gated parking lot from the Moorage is a huge shopping center (which can’t be seen from the floating homes), it has Target with a nice sized grocery store, Home Goods, Home Depot, Restaurants etc., so if you don’t want to drive anywhere you don’t have to!
The moorage is located right off I5 which makes it ideal to tour OR & WA. You can get to the Zoo, Japanese Gardens, downtown Portland within 10 minutes, Columbia Gorge about a 30-minute drive. Across the river is Vancouver which has a wonderful Riverwalk, is only a 5-minute drive… I could go on & on!
James is a jewel. We’ll be back. If you considering an extended stay in the Portland area, I can’t recommend this place enough! It deserves 10 STARS!
THANK YOU SO MUCH JAMES!
