Private home in small community of 10,000 people. Wooded surroundings on about 3/4 of an acre. Downtown is about a one minute drive (1.5 miles) and has a 1940s theater, antique shops, Goodwill, thrift store, art gallery, restaurants...downtown area running along Silver Creek. Great place for privacy, solitude, or as a recharging station from hiking, bicycling, exploring. Oregon Garden entrance is one mile from our house. Discounted pricing for weekly/monthly stays. We only book one family/friends at a time with options for different sleeping options. Trilevel home with upper-level bedrooms: upstairs larger room has new queen size bed, desk, dresser, 2 windows overlooking back yard and territorial view. Private bath just across the hall. Smaller twin bedroom available on same level and does not have heat or a/c. Laundry room and kitchen facilities also available. Full size bed on lower level with full bathroom (pictures coming soon). Can accommodate up to 5 people in a family/group. WiFi. Oregon Garden across street: entrance is one mile. Pet friendly: we do have a sweet friendly 11year old golden retriever Maizy, and 11 yr old adorable cat Julius. We are about 60min southeast of Portland airport and 20min from Salem. The Oregon Garden is across the street but the entrance is about one mile away. Silver Falls hiking is 15 miles away and definitely worth the trip. You can see several falls from the viewpoints. There is the Saturday Market downtown (one minute drive away), two city parks, city pool, awesome public library, and 25 murals around town. Mount Angel Abbey is 15min away and Woodburn Outlet Stores are 30min away. Silverton has several restaurants including Thai, Chinese, American, and Mexican. There is nightly live music at the Oregon Garden lounge. My home is nestled on 3/4 acre of land: deer often seen grazing in neighborhood. Hummingbirds in yard during summer months as well as the occasional skunk! Nearby neighbors have chickens (you will hear them if you leave your windows open!) There are touches of international flavor throughout the house from my travels mostly to central America as my son-in-law is from Panama and my younger son has lived in Thailand, Taiwan, Malaysia, Australia and he is currently living in Vietnam. You have access to the kitchen and appliances, laundry room, main living areas, outside deck and wooded yard.
