"This really is a river haven. Unbelievable location that prioritizes river views and sounds. This place has almost everything you'll need: a well-stocked kitchen, linens, towels, washer/dryer, and a fireplace. A note on the fireplace: you'll probably want to get a firestarter kit and a duraflame log from the local market. The wood was pretty stubborn to burn, and we aren't sure if it was the wood or the fireplace that was the problem. In any csse, we were able to get the fire going with the items I mentioned.We did whitewater rafting during our stay through High Country Expeditions. The meeting place is about 5 minutes from the home - highly recommended, even in colder weather. There are also lots of hot springs within a 20 minute drive, and the Sahalie and Koosah waterfalls are about 25 minutes away. We would have done Blue Pool if weather had allowed - the trailhead is 20 minutes away and is a 4 mile (total) out and back moderate hike.Be sure to stock up on groceries in town (Winco in Springfield is my recommendation), as the market can be expensive. Also check out Vida Cafe for breakfast. It's locally owned and operated, and had some of the best lemon marionberry we've ever had. My boyfriend and I will be back."
