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.

ADU unit in beautiful neighborhoos
Overall great experience. The until is smaller than expected and the two chairs meant for the desk were a bit wobbly and unsteady. Really wonderful backyard with views of the river and very welcoming for my dog-thoughtful treats left as well as convenient dog bowls. The location was incredible-beautiful path through the woods, and convenient to grocery store, pet store, and other services. Host was accessible and responsive.

Magical place
The cottage is magical and exactly what we needed! Nestled in a beautiful neighborhood it is a serene getaway with everything you need to get away from it all. Kristin provided us with all the water toys we needed to spend a day on the river and even made sure they were gently cleared of spiders for my friend. She even loaned us a cooler for the board. The house itself is well appointed and comfortable. The warmth and care that Kristin brought really put our experience over the top to a beautiful vacation.
