21 Acres in the Columbia River Gorge

We've just listed a stunning property in the Columbia River Gorge that has just about everything a nature lover can ask for. This property near Portland, Oregon adjoins National Forest, has a crystal clear creek, stately trees and an expansive view.  It is inside the National Scenic Area where the landscape will remain protected from excessive development.  The parcel is in southwest Washington about 30 miles east of Vancouver, at the end of a private road.  There are several outstanding home sites and ample ground for gardens, pasture, and forest.  Nearby are hiking trails and fishing for salmon, sturgeon, steelhead and trout. Skiing and snowboarding at Mt.Hood is an hour away; world class windsurfing is minutes away.  For real estate for sale in the Columbia Gorge Scenic Area, visit CapeHornLand.com.

Cabin on the Washougal River

Nestled among stately fir trees is a 1940's-era getaway on 1.24 acres along the Washougal River. This quiet retreat sits directly above the river far back from the road.  It is about 45 minutes from Portland International Airport and less than an hour from downtown Portland and Vancouver. Kayaking, hiking, skiing, fishing and windsurfing all are close.  Check out the neighborhood by booking a stay at this airbnb rental nearby.

Midwinter in the Columbia River Gorge

Yesterday morning was cold and overcast in the west end of the Columbia River Gorge.  We showed a beautiful home in Washougal before heading up to Skamania to show another view home on acreage there. We decided to head a few miles east to Stevenson for a late lunch at Skamania Lodge, where we were greeted with clear skies and a great view.
