    Waterfront A-Frame Camp w/ Firepit

    100% (10)
    A-frame · Sleeps 2
    Get away from it all when you stay under the stars. Stay inside and cozy, or open the side walls to create a fresh-air camping experience. This brand new A-Frame cabin is like NOTHING you have experienced before! Bring some food, ice, and clothes; the rest is provided for you! You'll never have a better night than one spent here with the sound of the rushing river lulling you to sleep. A Sunmy Outlook is one of many, scattered, private accommodations on our 2.5 acre Retreat. Each one is spaced adequately to provide plenty of privacy but also a sense of safety for our guests who are not used to experiencing our very dark rural nights. Unless you have an event contract with us which includes the entire complex, all outdoor areas are shared with other guests. These include, but are not limited to the grape arbor sitting area, covered fire pit pavilion, picnic tables, yoga decks, and creek front beach area. Our location truly is the perfect and affordable getaway for adventurous guests seeking a centralized accommodation, within a short drive from Portland or Seattle, who are looking to explore the Washington Coast and Long Beach, Astoria and Seaside Oregon, Mt. St. Helens and the Ape Caves, Beaver Creek Falls, as well as the the historic and scenic Port of Kalama with fun new shopping and tourist attractions. We have also recently added a Camper's Closet at the Retreat, a convenient one-stop-shop for some of the items (ie Smores, Firestarter, Lunch kits and more!) and services (Grocery and flower delivery, etc...) you may need or want during your stay. As well, guests can reserve our shared laundry room for 24 hours by ordering this add on amenity via the Camper's Closet! Ordering is easy peasy and the link will be forwarded to you prior to your arrival. After you place your order, you'll receive an email (separate from this reservation) for where to go and and how to access the items you have purchased. For a harmonious coexistence in our cozy space, we kindly ask you to consider these simple guidelines to make the most of your pet-friendly stay: 1. To ensure everyone's safety, we request that pets remain leashed when outside. 2. We have a bit of a no-pets-on-the-furniture policy. That includes beds and lofts too! 3. Our general limit is two pets per stay, unless we've chatted and made special arrangements. 4. Cat lovers, bring your own litter box along for your feline friends. 5. We've got you covered with pet waste bags—please use them for clean-ups, every single time. 6. We're all about quality time together, so let's avoid leaving furry friends solo in the homes. 7. Oopsie moments happen! If they do, there are handy cleaning supplies under the sink. 8. A little daily sweep will do wonders to keep fur from taking over. 9. Guests at our Creekside Cottage, we've set up a pup relief area (with a sign!) to save the lawn. Feel free to use it, or any other spot on the property except the front lawn. 10. To keep things fair and square, we're now requesting a retroactive $150 pet deposit. It's all about trust. If we all play by the rules, you will not be charged. Just know, after any rule-bending (extra laundry, cleaning, or upholstery work),and this additional charge will apply. Plus, intentional rule breakers might face extra fees. Let's keep things snazzy! Quick note: Our enchanting forest is home to all sorts of creatures, from bunnies to bobcats. Keeping pets leashed and kids close by is the savvy way to prevent unexpected run-ins.

    My Tiny Bird House

    Tiny home · Sleeps 1
    When our guests are not relaxing with a beer on the new deck, napping in the lofted bed, or enjoying the covered firepit area; they enjoy touring the pubs and tap houses nearby. What this tiny cottage lacks in space, it more than makes up for with amenities like a fresh air shower, outdoor dining and lounging area, and a BBQ with cooler. The Retreat vibe is pretty relaxed so if you're seeking down time in the great outdoors you've found it! My Tiny Bird House is now one of many, scattered, private accommodations on our 2.5 acre Retreat.

As shown, accessing the bed in the Bird House requires use of a ladder best used by guests who would describe themselves as agile or flexible and ideally shorter than 5' 8".

    Nestled just far enough from town to provide a secluded feel, this campsite offers a charming mix of nature and comfort. Visitors frequently mention the cozy accommodations, complete with all necessary amenities, and the delightful presence of free-roaming bunnies and a soothing creek. Michelle, the host, is praised for her thoughtful hospitality and attention to detail, ensuring guests have everything they need. However, some guests noted a few minor issues such as the composting toilet's odor and occasional ants in the kitchen, which might affect those with sensitivities.

    An amazing place for a fun little getaway! We had such a great weekend on this beautiful property, playing with the kitty’s and bunny’s that roam around. Michelle was a great host and has put a lot of thought into making sure you’d have everything you’d need! We hope to visit again!

    Michelle was the greatest host ever! Super friendly , super welcoming 🤗 The tiny house village is truly one of a kind! She thought of every single detail when building them - we stayed at the Tiny Perch - the cutest little cabin with everything in it one might need to feel comfortable- from a full kitchen with appliances to a bathroom with a tiny shower, a super comfy bed. And even bins for pets with towels and 💩 bags in case you needed some extra She really thought of everything!!! And the labeling- what an amazing idea!!! It’s like this all comes with instructions 😍 I can’t recommend them enough - will definitely be back and not once! For sure!!! The forest and the river are the cherry on top!

    We stayed at the My Tiny Perch for 2 nights. Before reading my review, I wanted to give a heads up that I was aware that it will be a composting toilet. However, I do have a sensitive nose, and although there’s a door for the toilet the smell still seeped through. I’ve used plenty of the cedar shavings but there’s still some smell. I do think that pictures of the bathroom could’ve helped prepare for the stay or could’ve helped my decision about staying here. The other thing that made my stay uncomfortable were the down feather blankets. It made my allergies flare up, but I did like that I was able to use the grill easily. Here are the pros and cons of staying at the Tiny Perch Pros: -place was cozy -nice little porch area for barbecuing -had cooking all the usual/basic cooking stuff you’ll need -has hot water -natural lighting -cute bunnies hanging around the area -assigned parking spots Cons - composting toilet was too smelly for me even with the cedar shavings provided - bathroom didn’t have a window for ventilation - tub was dirty - there were ants in the kitchen

    Had a great stay over the 4th of July weekend with my two dogs. The creek was a welcome break during the heatwave and my dogs enjoyed watching the bunnies on the property. The A-frame had everything we needed and the bed was super comfortable! We can’t wait to come back!

    Waterfront A-Frame Camp w/ Firepit
    The A-frame was a perfect combination of minimalism and comfort. It was equipped with all the kitchen stuff you could need, two comfy beds, towels, and there's a cute little campers store on site to purchase more food if you pull in too tired and out of snacks. Very safe space. The creek by the A-frame was beautiful and soothing. The firepit and all the nature surrounding it made it a fantastic getaway. We want to go back. There's an outdoor shower and toilet that's super easy to operate and loved how earth friendly the whole setup was. Michelle and crew are amazing hosts.

    Adorable Structure
    Waterfront A-Frame Camp w/ Firepit
    Had a great few days here. The A-Frame cabin is a work of classic and modern architecture art. I found it reprogramming me about how many things I truly need in life. It is such an efficient use of space. Cookware is all provided as is dish-washing system. Being by the creek was super soothing. Lots of rules to follow, which did make it hard to truly relax at times, but I think we did good in the end. Very safe, and tucked away. Nice shared facilities and easy to use composting toilet system. The wild bunnies do get to poop where they want so do step lightly, but otherwise a curious entertainment. Kept my dog transfixed. Also very grateful to have wifi out there.

    The cabin was just as pictured, although keep in mind it is a tiny home, so the foot space is extremely limited. We had the property to ourselves for the majority of our stay. It was great to soak up some sunshine in the mornings, romp in the creek in the afternoon a bit, and have a campfire each evening! Very enjoyable experience!

    Waterfront A-Frame Camp w/ Firepit
    Cabin was super cute, well-stocked, clean, and I loved being able to open a wall to the peaceful creek! Fair warning the beds are a bit narrow but I just pushed them together and was very comfy. Michelle is an amazing hostess - my car broke down while I was there and she helped me immensely. Would definitely stay with her again!

    This is my second stay at this beautiful tiny home village. The attention to detail is evident throughout. The bed is so comfy, the decor is cheery and bright, the windows are at the perfect height, the cross breeze is dreamy. Highly recommended stay for nature lovers. The birds were serenading the forest. Pretty nice way to wake up.

    We really enjoyed our stay at the perch!! Beautiful little home, had everything we needed plus more. Very cozy and the whole “tiny village” was adorable, we loved playing cornhole! Michelle was also very kind, helpful, and responsive. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking to get away for some quiet relaxation. Very close to a wildlife refuge where we got to see some beautiful birds and wildlife.

    Stay Here for Fear..
    Tiny Gem in the Woods Near Wineries
    Unfortunately my stay wasn’t as great as expected. My Mom and I rented the tiny bird house for four nights to visit my little brother and his girlfriend. The place was amazing and had just enough things to do for a great stay. However, the host was on or around our site about everyday of our stay. No privacy. The second day I invited my brother and his girlfriend to come see the cute place! With the many rules she had sent me either by text, email, or Airbnb web, I forgot about the part of the agreement that said to let her know who the visiting guests will be for parking purposes. Totally my bad!! I checked the guests stay handbook to double check earlier that morning and it said nothing about it so I assumed it was okay. (They rode in my car so it also shouldn’t have been a huge deal I feel) Also I checked for smoking rules and the book said no smoking inside but you may smoke outside if you have a can of water to put them in. So my family and I were sitting on the porch having a great time, laughing and enjoying the beautiful creative camp site. The host camp out of nowhere straight up in our site. The area we paid to rent. And with no warning of coming by, she started telling us that there weren’t supposed to be guests unless pre-approved (which was fair) and that there was no smoking. And my mom confused asked “you mean anywhere?” To which she responded condescendingly “well it’s a forest...”. My mom told her how the book said we could smoke outside if we had a can and she apologized for not updating that. Basically, by the end of the conversation she had made us feel guilty and embarrassed. And on top of it, she violated our privacy. I felt so bad we moved our social to my brothers house immediately. With that said I feel as though people should know that this camp site is less private then a hotel. I felt very upset that I was even given a reason to feel this way I n a place I had never been. My mom and I would return to camp late to run inside so the host didn’t have an opportunity to approach us again. I don’t think this screams hospitality. I would not stay here nor recommend this stay. Solely because the host seems to be unprofessional.

    Amazing homes, host, and area!

    My tiny bird house was actually closed for the season, so I ended up staying in “My Tiny Perch”. It far exceeded my expectations! The directions were super accurate which I appreciated since I arrived later in the evening (after dark). Once inside it was super cozy and warm, and expertly decorated! Rustic and secluded but also had such a warm cozy feeling. The Perch was extremely clean; kitchenette, floors, bathroom, linens etc, all clean and well cared for. The welcome book was filled with great detailed instructions on how to work everything in the Perch, and gave some great suggestions for local attractions. You also want to read the whole book the first night... trust me on this.... you will be happy if you do. Michelle is a super amazing and welcoming host! She made sure to be available all the time, but definitely gave me my room to do my thing. Checked in on me when I got there, and then I got to meet and chat with her the morning I was leaving, and I’m so glad I did! She showed me the other tiny homes in her village and man... they are ALL AMAZING! All so different but I would stay in every single one! I will absolutely be back next time I am up this way! (I also super appreciate that she is so welcoming of pets. It’s hard to find great places when traveling with pets sometimes, and she is above and beyond!)

    The tiny house is very ship shape and well-appointed. Be aware that sleeping spaces are tiny too, with the upper bunk just long enough for a short adult.

    I had a wonderful stay at the My Tiny Bird House. It's 48 square feet of cute, tiny space with all the amenities you may ever need. It was very peaceful among the tall noble fir trees that was once a Christmas tree farm. There is another neighboring tiny house, but the trees give you enough privacy to feel secluded from the world. The host let me know she was out of town and had a friend give me a tour of the tiny house. She was very welcoming and accommodating. There is a guidebook explaining everything of the house and local attractions. Although I did not meet Michelle, I could see her passion in tiny living and attention to detail. Living in a tiny home herself on the property, she is very knowledgeable of the lifestyle. GPS and the host's directions accurately guided me to the land. When you arrive, look for the "My Tiny Perch" sign and keep on the path that veers to the right where you will see the tiny houses. I would love to come back and stay at this property again. Staying in the My Tiny Bird House was the serenity that I needed. I'm curious to see her next tiny home project that's going to be added to the village.
