The place was beautiful, clean, comfortable, and well furnished. The apartment had everything we needed and more. The kitchen was well stocked and the host even left a few snacks for us. We arrived late from Seattle, which wasn’t a problem. We were able to check in late with ease. The view was amazing! The apartment was conveniently located between the north and south attractions to Mt Saint Helens. We visited Ape Caves on Saturday and hiked Mt Saint Helens on Sunday. We will definitely stay here again!

Nice unit but cold

The heater did not work correctly. The owner kept turning the heat down and it was blowing cold air a lot of the time.

A Beautiful Stay With a View

We had a lovely stay in this apartment. Excellent communication with the host. It looks like a home on the outside but inside the entry you realize there are multiple units. Our ground floor unit looked like new construction, modern and cozy with a gas fireplace and 2 couches overlooking the Columbia River. A perfect place to relax. The kitchen and bath are well stocked. Our upstairs neighbors were noisy very early unfortunately, but that can happen anywhere. I don’t recommend it if you have small kids as at the front edge of the patio is a sheer drop down. Would definitely stay again!

Great Place to Stay

This was our second time to stay here and just as before we were very pleased with the accommodations. The weather was cooler the days we were there and I appreciated that our host reached out to us to see if we needed a temp adjustment. It really is a great place for us to stay when we visit family in the area.

What a beautiful, clean property. We stayed in suite c and had everything we needed. The views from our room were stunning from the large windows. We will definitely be back the next time we visit Washington. Judy was very responsive to text messages and helped answer any questions we had.

Great place to stay

We really enjoyed our stay. The location was perfect for visiting family who live in the area. Although the weather wasn’t very accommodating for outdoor activities, we still enjoyed the beauty of the surrounding area, and saw a few dear and many varieties of birds, including eagles from the living room window. We hope to stay again this summer.
