Stunning Riverfront Getaway, *Pet Friendly*, Barrel Sauna, Huge Deck, Game Room, Fire-Pit, Pool

Sitting among the trees on the banks of the Sandy River, you will find the Brightwood Riverfront Getaway. This stunning 3 bedroom/2.5 bathroom home is a perfect blend of comfort and style. It is nestled in a family friendly neighborhood and bathed in natural light, with incredible river and forest views. At just over 15 miles from Government Camp at Mt. Hood, this home is a perfect location to explore and enjoy everything the region has to offer.

Upon entering, you will be greeted with a warm and open floor plan connecting the spacious living and dining area to the recently upgraded kitchen. The custom river rock electric fireplace provides a cozy ambiance. You can't miss the river and forest views from the kitchen and dining area. The sliding glass doors open up onto a large deck with ample seating and gas BBQ grill. The scenery is breathtaking.

Also on the main level is the primary suite with en-suite bathroom and an additional half bathroom. The incredible primary suite has been meticulously appointed with everything you might need for a luxurious stay including a TV for streaming, custom furniture, a gas fireplace, and forested river views from the bed.

The garage has been converted into an epic game room that all ages can enjoy. Loaded with seating, there are tables and surfaces for puzzles and quality family time. Check out the foosball table, large selection of board games as well as a TV for additional viewing pleasure.

Upstairs are two additional bedrooms and a full bathroom with a shower and a jacuzzi tub. The elevated river views from the bathroom and each bedroom are something special for sure. One upstairs bedroom has a queen bed, while the other has two twin bunk beds for a fantastic blend of sleeping options. Both bedrooms have ample closet space.

While there are countless amenities in the house, outside has incredible offerings as well. Just down from the deck you will notice the unique, cedar wood barrel sauna as well as the custom fire pit on gravel and rock surrounded by rustic seating elements, with the Sandy River by your side. This is a special spot, enjoyable year round, that isn't to be missed. If you want to explore the backyard area more, there is a short trail to the right that leads down to the river and opens up onto a sand and rock “beach" where you can sit by the river's edge, or you can continue on the trail to the left and explore the river sights even more.

Staying here also includes access to the neighborhood clubhouse (about a 3 minute walk) which offers a private community pool, sauna, basketball court and tennis court in the summer months. This home is equipped with the ​​”Haven Home Battery Backup System” to keep guests comfortable in case of a power outage.

The Brightwood Riverfront Getaway is without a doubt a truly special vacation home in the region. The home was fully renovated in 2020 and is filled with custom finishes throughout. New quartz countertops were installed in the kitchen and bathrooms. All new flooring and fixtures, as well as custom built log beds in each bedrooms. There are two large flat screen TVs, a ski and snowboard storage area, washer/dryer, central heat/AC, as well as a large wrap around deck with gas grill. You won't want to miss your chance to stay while you enjoy and explore everything the area has to offer. Please reach out if you have any questions at all.

Amazing property inside and out!
This property was AMAZING inside and out! Plenty of room in this large, gorgeous house. The amenities are the best I've ever seen in any rental house (although surprisingly no blender?). Our family had a great New Year's week. In spite of the worse start to ski season in 34 years (no snow), we had so much to keep us amused! Game room, fireplace, sauna.

Fabulous!
the house an amenities were fantastic! The sauna was unique and enjoyable, incredible addition to the experience. There was a burn ban so we didn't get to enjoy the fire pit but everything was beautiful and homey, we really enjoyed our stay. There were lots of spices and condiments to use and I left ours to add to the collection, well stocked kitchen, It was lovely, I highly recommend!

Comfortable and clean gorgeous home
Two families of 4 stayed at this gorgeous river front house. We were all very comfortable. The master bedroom bed was spectacular. Very comfortable! The kitchen had everything we needed. The house was clean. The sauna was a welcome addition. The master bedroom opens to a deck overlooking the river. We were there in winter but this would be so great in the summer. Just gorgeous location. We plan to be back!

Loved the rushing stream!!!
The house was just wonderful. The best part was waking up to the sound of the rushing stream! Such a beautiful setting. It had everything you could possibly need. One thing it does need is a coffee maker that works (it needs some maintenance or a new one). Everything else, we loved and didn't want to leave.

Perfect Getaway
We had a wonderful stay as two families with toddlers (four adults, two kids under 2). The kitchen was well stocked and ready for us to cook and the game room was a fun bonus. The only note I have is that we did not have access to the walk in closet in the first floor bedroom. We had intended to have one of the babies sleep in there but it was locked for the homeowner's storage. Overall, the house was lovely and we look forward to visiting again.

Excellent location in a beautiful home by the water
Beautiful home in a lovely neighborhood and the sound of the rushing water was peaceful. Location was great and easy access to key places in Oregon. Beds were comfortable. Living room could use 1 or 2 more comfortable chairs and the upstairs bedroom could use pillows without the shams on them. Only other suggestion would be to have a window covering on the upstairs bathroom shower window. There are people who walk behind the house and can see through the clear glass window. I would highly recommend this home and their communication with us was always quick.

I loved the home, very clean. The location was perfect, we visited Timberline, Government Camp and Ski Bowl. We spent most of our time outside, on the deck and we brought our own chairs and sat on the nice beachy area along the river for many hours. We had an evening fire in the firepit area. It is a beautiful home in a great location, even walking around the neighborhood was fun, The beds are a bit firm. We had 6 adults and the only one that slept well was in the queen room upstairs. Downstairs bathrooms have motion sensor lights that are very bright with no adjustments, so you get hit with bright light while sleeping. Kitchen is well equipped but I thought there was a regular coffee maker and one that used KCups. Not a KCup compatible machine, FYI.

Fun getaway to the mountains
This house was located in a nice mountain neighborhood. The property overlooks a river and has access to walk to the river. it was very peaceful. The inside of the house was very well maintained and the set up was great for our multi age group. Having the garage set up as a game room was great for us to be able to spread out and do different activities in the house. Very enjoyable experience

Fantastic family getaway!
Our family of four (mum, dad, girl (11) and boy (9)) loved our stay at Brightwood. Well equipped house in a tranquil location and exactly what we were looking for. Sitting on the deck / lying in the hammock whilst listening to the river and birds was bliss. Though a bit of a drive, we found it well located for Portland, Mount Hood, trails, fruit farms, etc. Highly recommended and would stay again!
