A private balcony offers peaceful river views above the water. Outdoor living includes a spacious deck perched above the river and an attached storage shed for bikes, skis, firewood, & gear. Set on approximately 0.36 acres, the property offers room to relax and enjoy the natural beauty of the Pacific Northwest. Located approximately 7 miles from the Sandy Ridge Trail System, 17 miles from Timberline Lodge, and 22 miles from Mt. Hood Meadows.
