What a great idea for a weekend getaway! You could bid together with another family and have a close-to-home yet 'get-away-from-it-all' adventure!

Enjoy a quiet two-night getaway on the Columbia River. A nicely furnished, four bedroom, two bath home in a small gated community outside of Clatskanie, Oregon (about 90 minute drive from Portland).

This house sleeps 8-10 comfortably, and provides an unobstructed view of the Columbia River...watch ships of all sizes roll in from the Pacific Ocean or back out from Portland.

Community play equipment and a sandy river beach are just a stone's throw away, and perfect for kids!
