Old growth forests, Swift Reservoir, Gifford Pinchot National Forest, are also relatively close to name just a few of the other popular destinations. The nearby Ape Caves are also a unique and popular destination for both children and adults. In the winter Marble Mountain Snow park is open for cross-country skiing, snow shoeing, and snow mobiles.

About the host
Hosted by David Barker
We love the Pacific Northwest with its forests and outdoor activities! With 3 boys we look forward to escaping the Portland Metro area and enjoying nature and the beautiful outdoors.
Why they chose this property
Our Lakewood property began with the dream of a having a retreat home in a gated community close to the mountains and lakes yet still within driving distance from Portland. We wanted a place where the family could get away from the city and the business of life and enjoy a relaxing time together in the great outdoors. We also wanted a place where our children could form special family memories as they grew up. As we developed this property, we realized that there would be other families who would enjoy it as well. This led us to listing it with VRBO and HomeAway.
A portion of all proceeds from the Lakewood Retreat goes to support clean water projects with Food for the Hungry in Guatemala and Peru.
