Unbeatable location

The location is right in the middle of downtown on a pier, with two parking spots included. So many amazing restaurants and shops within a short walking distance. Another reviewer mentioned crowd noise at night due to the bar next door, but they close by midnight and the is very quiet.

We were in Astoria for a family wedding and this property was such an amazing experience! The location, decor, stunning views and comfort were all great. On Friday evening a group of family members had dinner across the street and afterwards we were able to relax and visit together at the rental. It worked out wonderfully. Karen was very good at responding to any questions we had. You won’t regret your decision to rent here. My family thinks I’m a rock star for finding it! Lol

Wonderful place with great views

This is an extra-special place on a pier on the Columbia River with views on three sides of container ships and other boat traffic, and of the trolley and river walk and bubbles from the bubble man on the fourth. The kind of place where you just want to relax and watch it all. Great central location with free assigned parking. Well-appointed with everything we needed. So peaceful but plenty to see and places to eat in close by. Try Astoria Brewing right across the street. And check out shipreport.net for info on all the big ships passing by and a map with their real-time locations. Would we stay here again? Absolutely!

Amazing View

We loved this property! The view was absolutely amazing- we felt so cozy snuggled up by the fireplace while we watched the ships out the window. Very clean property and couldn't be in a better location - just steps to so many restaurants and shops. The host was so kind and helpful, and check in/out was a breeze. Also loved that it had reserved parking. We are in love with this property!
