About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

The STONEHOUSE isn’t just a place to stay, it’s a special experience.

The Stonehouse is a rare find. One of a kind. Even from the driveway entrance you won't see the house till you get to the end of Quarry Street. We are in the city and in the woods. Just the kind of home you think of when you think of Oregon. From your patio there isn't a house in sight. Peace and tranquility, birds and squirrels, mountains and Portland sky lines off in the distance, and evening sunsets glowing through the trees. Sit on a large boulder left from the old rock quarry and read a book. Swing on an adult size swing and feel like a child again. Turn on the patio party lights and have friends over for dinner outside and marshmallows around the fire pit. Take a short walk after dinner up the path, located just above the driveway, to the lookout over Oregon City and beyond.
The Stonehouse is a very private 1000sq. ft. daylight basement apartment surrounded by Waterboard Park just above historic Oregon City (winner of 2018 Great American Main Street Award.) A garden path leads to your own separate keyless entry, which opens to the living room, dining room and kitchen.
The living room has big comfy chairs that are a great place to curl up with a good book or watch your favorite show.
If you enjoy cooking or barbecuing, the kitchen is well stocked with the tools you'll need, including convection oven and full size refrigerator.
We think you will especially enjoy the quiet and comfort of your bedroom.
There is no road noise to disturb your sleep. Blackout curtains, pristine white sheets, lots of pillows and extra blankets are all provided to enhance your sleeping experience. We have another bedroom open by request, with a queen bed.
If you want city, use the bus system to reach Portland or stroll to downtown Oregon City via the elevator to explore wonderful restaurants, bars, and shops. It doesn’t get much better than this.
Come see why we call Oregon home.
We look forward to hearing from you.

Cozy Home Away From Home
From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with warmth and hospitality that made us feel right at home. The property was clean, comfortable, and equipped with everything we needed for a relaxing stay. The thoughtful touches and attention to detail were evident throughout. The homeowners were incredibly friendly and responsive, always available to answer questions and offer recommendations. Their kindness truly made our experience even more special.

Our stay at the Stonehouse was perfect. The accommodations were beautiful, spacious, clean, secure, and well appointed. The gardens and grounds were magnificent and provided a lovely setting for us to play outside with our grandchildren and have all our family meals. The hosts were friendly, communicative, and professional. We're looking forward to coming back to stay at the Stonehouse whenever we return to the charming town Oregon City.

A must if you are planning to visit Oregon City!
We decided to book The Stonehouse based upon the unbelievably beautiful setting and appearance of the property, although we wondered: could this place be as amazing as it appears? What others said in prior reviews seemed to confirm what the pictures and description of the property conveyed. Now that we have stayed at the house, we can also say the same. If you are interested in a very quaint and private VRBO in an gorgeous natural setting, look no further! We found this property to be exceptionally clean with everything we could think of to make the stay comfortable and relaxing. The owners are impeccable hosts, working so hard to make your stay the best that it can be, interested in attending to every detail. The surrounding area is very walkable/hikeable and we enjoyed the park near the property, as well as walking to explore the surrounding area. The Stonehouse truly was a home away from home, but even better, as our back yard cannot compare to this one!

Spectacular setting, wonderful hosts
This property is in the most spectacular setting possible. On the ridge above the Willamette River with views of the entire valley including all the area mountains and downtown Portland. Spectacular sunrises AND sunsets right from the property. Easy walking access to the view point (that you can also drive to) from a trailhead just by the driveway. There is a beautiful outdoor table with 6 chairs, a gas fire table with 4 cushioned chairs, a fire pit with several chairs around, a tire swing!!, flawless landscaping, and the mist goes on. The inside property is very clean with all the modern amenities and everything you could need. The hosts were very prompt in responding to any questions. They were also very kind in giving recommendations for other things to do and see while in the area. Highly recommend!!

Work from your "home away from home" at the Stonehouse
I stayed for three weeks while on a work trip. It was absolutely PERFECT. It was exceptionally clean, quiet, and comfortable inside. The outside was diving, relaxing, and peaceful. Both provided the perfect spot for working and relaxing. It was absolutely the best rental I've ever stayed in. I have recommended it to colleagues since we have lots of work in the area and can't wait to come back on my next trip too! Marlaine and Steve are the kindest and most considerate hosts too. The. Best.

Oregon City visit
We stayed for a week at the property and enjoyed its location very much. A relaxing, quiet home base to escape back to after some busy sightseeing day trips. Nothing like a retreat to the cool pines to put you at ease. The hosts are very communicative and accommodating. They take pride in what they do. The apartment is very comfy and easy to settle in to. Great memories overall.

A Home Away From Home!!!
I can not recommend this property enough! The setting is breathtaking, surrounded by beautiful trees and a stunning view of Oregon City. There’s a private entrance and easy parking, a stocked kitchen, a comfortable family room, two spacious bedrooms, and a beautiful bedroom. My wife, daughter, and I felt so at home here and were really spoiled by how wonderful the location is. To top it off, the owners are absolutely fabulous. Incredibly kind, helpful, and responsive. They went out of their way to ensure that our stay was comfortable…they even worked with us before checking in to figure out a furniture layout that would work best for us. They were quick to answer any questions we had and just a delight to chat with. Like I said, I can’t recommend this property enough. We even extended our stay by another month because we loved it so much.

Beautiful secluded getaway
The pictures don't do the place justice. The kitchen and bathroom have recently been re-done. The decor is tasteful and is more spacious than the pictures make it look. This is the perfect peaceful getaway. The hosts were incredibly accommodating and happily provided any additional house/kitchen supplies we desired. They were kind and available while still giving us privacy. The backyard has a perfect patio and swing with views of the trees and forested area. The ideal place to watch the leaves turn during the fall. The place is a 10-15 minute walk from quaint downtown Oregon City and about a 30-minute drive from the city of Portland. There is a short hiking trail right off the driveway that is lovely for a stroll. We loved it and would absolutely book again!
