About this property

Blue Heron Sanctuary & Serene, River-Front Cottage

The cottage is a private space, with a full kitchen, bathroom, laundry and fenced backyard affronting "Goat Island" on the stunning Willamette River, with Maddox and Burnside Parks as neighbors, privacy and tranquility await. Nature trails abound, and prepare to awake serenaded by our resident Bald Eagles, and numerous migratory songbirds, or catch a glimpse of schools of fish passing by and our local sea lions. During nesting season, we are directly across from the largest Blue Heron rookery in the Pacific Northwest, where hundreds of Great Blue Herons return year after year to nest and hatch their young, truly something to experience. The cottage includes binoculars for viewing our friends. Enjoy a selection of vinyl provided on the in-room record player, grab the guitar, learn a few chords (books provided in-house) and take it outside to play around the firepit in the evening. Walking distance to exceptional markets and dining options or cooking in the fully equipped kitchen. Book your stay with us today.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

Host profile image
I enjoy traveling and incorporating attending music and events while experiencing new cultures. I generally travel solo and try my best to travel light, focusing on experiences over packing and unpacking! I appreciate and respect the opportunity to be welcomed into one’s home and business and treat each visit with its due respect. I am 4x vaccinated against Covid and had my run in with it in Jan, 22 so very well protected!

Cheers to travel again and the opportunities extended! — kristin
