  • Introduction

     

    Clackamas River House - Oregon City, OregonWelcome to the Clackamas River House

    Enjoy some peace and natural beauty on the scenic Clackamas River in our newly redecorated home. You will be greeted with warm hospitality as we open our home to you. Relax as you enjoy the sights and sounds of the area. Listen to the frogs serenade you and watch the birds fly overhead or swim by on the river.

    There is a great view of the Clackamas River from the front yard, living room as well as both guest rooms.  The back yard blends into a lush, wooded hillside. There are several gardens for your enjoyment.
     

    Breakfast will be provided in our dining room, or outside on the patio on warm summer mornings. A wide variety of foods, both traditional and creative are served. The cook (Bev) has studied nutrition and loves to bake, so homemade whole grain products are a favorite menu item. Special dietary needs can be met when the requests are made in advance.

    For many years, we have run a small medical clinic and as our children grow up, we decided to follow a dream of running a bed & breakfast. We love to provide hospitality to others. Other hobbies include gardening, quilting, and traveling. Marc enjoys remodeling and doing lawn care and Bev loves baking and needlework, so this has been a perfect project for us.

    Our bed & breakfast has some special features we would like you to know about. We have off-street parking, including space for an RV or truck pulling a trailer. For those musically inclined, we offer a spinet piano in the living room. There is a room upstairs, we call the Frog Room that serves as a library/media room and has a balcony deck off the back overlooking the backyard and wooded hillside. This room has a television with DVD and VCR player, as well as games, books, and puzzles. Wireless internet access is available. The backyard features a pond and waterfall, and gardens with a gazebo for your enjoyment. About a quarter of a mile away is Carver Park with a boat ramp, picnic tables, and river shoreline. We enjoy seeing the ducks and geese that reside there.
