We had a great stay in February at the float house. The host is great and the house is very clean and as-advertised. We liked being close to Astoria, but appreciated the quiet and privacy of being on the river (the house is maybe an 8 minute drive to town, but at the end of a long driveway so very quiet and peaceful). Also, if you have to stay connected the wifi was great. The only thing I'd mention is on the main floor there are two sleeping areas (one room with a king or queen bed and one smaller room with a twin-ish sized bed) but to get to the smaller room you have to walk through the larger room (this was fine with the group we were with but is good to know). All in all, this is a great place to stay and unwind or explore astoria and rhe coast

We didn't want to leave. The Float House was amazing; comfortable, very quiet, very clean, snug, cozy, well-equipped, soothing. We absolutely loved it! Everything was well thought out and very well supplied. Liz was there to greet us and show us about. Lots of nature to watch, including a grouchy Great Blue Heron and a river otter.

What an amazing place! I could have stayed here my entire visit and never gone into Astoria ... just sitting on the dock and watching the wildlife and dipping my toes in the creek. Lots of room for everyone (we had 7 adults and we had space to be by ourselves or as a group). Astoria is about 15 minutes away and is such a great place to visit with lots of things to do and see.

Exceeded expectations

All I can say is we were very sad to leave. Such a beautiful place, exceedingly clean, cozy, peaceful, private and relaxing. Lots of space in the house, well stocked and super close to town (but we hardly left!) Sitting on the deck and watching so many birds at dusk was a highlight. Looking forward to coming back someday.
