About this property
HUGE A-Frame in Goldendale // Now Sleeps 12!
NEWLY remodeled! Now room for 12! 4 bedrooms, 5 beds (2 kings, 3 queens, plus sofa pullout as needed). 4 full bathrooms!
Our towering A-frame with floor to ceiling windows invites you into the tranquility of slow, country living. Perched peacefully over a grove of Ponderosas with breathtaking views of the Columbia hills and a majestic Mount Hood, this retreat offers an escape from the bustle of urban life and will lull you into a much needed quietude. Enjoy the starry sky on our spacious deck, or a slow savoring of Pinot from a nearby vineyard.
3000+ square feet of an open floor plan provides the perfect setting for unwinding that is lately so needed. Three floors of natural light, airy, open spaces, and a neutral, minimalist aesthetic intended to help our guests unwind. The house boasts plenty of room to spread out with two spacious decks, four bedrooms, four full bathrooms, cozy family media room, full kitchen, plus kitchenette.
Now able to host up to 12 guests, it’s ideal for family gatherings, retreats, or group getaways.
Inside, vaulted ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows fill the home with natural light, while minimalist, nature-inspired décor creates a serene atmosphere. A custom dining table made from reclaimed wood by the owners seats 10, making it the perfect centerpiece for shared meals and conversation. Create meals together in the fully stocked, spacious kitchen, or watch the sunset from the home’s enormous living room sectional. Working virtually? Starlink internet and an office with a large monitor mean you can stay connected or work remotely with ease. Step outside to enjoy the large wrap-around deck, where you can spot deer, wild turkeys, and the occasional fox, along with the neighbor’s friendly llamas. Whether you’re sipping morning coffee or winding down with a glass of wine, the setting offers unmatched peace and a front-row view of Oregon’s natural beauty.
The home features multiple gathering areas, including a second living space downstairs for movie nights, a ping pong table in the garage, and a newly added kitchenette with a reclaimed wood bar for casual entertaining.
Surrounded by year-round recreation opportunities, this retreat offers quiet country living just a short drive from adventure. Here, you can truly unplug, connect with nature, and enjoy time together in a space built for memorable moments.
You'll have full access to all three floors of the house, including both decks furnished with comfortable outdoor furniture and a cozy gas-fireplace. A barbecue is also available for outdoor cooking on warm evenings. The house also offers a front yard and five peaceful acres of quiet pine forest tranquility, with developed nature trail for full access to land.
This house is located on the ancestral land of the Kah-miltpa Band of the Yakama Nation. For more information about the tribal history of the area you can visit the Yakama Nation’s website. The Kah-miltpa Band continue to live in the area and practice their traditional cultural ways in the Simcoe Mountains and the Klickitat Valley as their ancestors have for thousands of years. During the month of April, the Kah-miltpa Band has an annual salmon feast and pow-wow and invites visitors to come and share a meal and perhaps dance each year.

The house in the pines was a fantasic stay. I would sit and look out those windows for hours. We had amazing sunrise and sunsets this trip! The beds were comfy and loved the layout of the house. We had a few things come up and Jacob was responsive. Though one couldnt be fixed during our stay, it was easy to make contact with him.
This house will be on our radar next time we come visit.
Loved our time staying in this peaceful home! As pictured and described, had everything we needed, and host communication was excellent throughout. Great experience.
This is our favorite place to stay while visiting family in town. This time we introduced the new baby to the family. Relaxing, spacious, caught a clear view of Mt Hood and enjoyed one night of star gazing from the deck. We will be back next time we come to town.
We had the loveliest stay at this home! We were looking for a quiet place to escape to from the city and this place did not disappoint. Such a beautiful home to relax in, enjoy some good meals and watch the most gorgeous sunsets ever! No stargazing this time because of the thunderstorms, but we will be back to try again!

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Lovely house and absolutely gorgeous surroundings including a view of two mountains. The living room is the perfect place to lounge and you feel like you’re in the outdoors. The deck was perfect for an early cup of coffee in the morning. Three bathrooms, two extra roomy, kept us all comfortable. Full kitchen and dishwasher were also very convenient to prepare our own meals. If you watch a lot of TV, the TV is not very convenient, but we had no need of it. I did just want a plain old coffee maker but that’s because I’m old-school (they had 4 different coffee making devices and filters were provided so we were fine). It is a no-shoe house so I suggest bringing slippers. The third bedroom had glass doors so wasn’t private, but maybe they’ll remedy that in the future. I have no real complaints, just things that might be a small issue based on your preferences. Lovely house, property, and view. I was a pesky client and had a lot of questions prior to the trip but the property manager always got back to me quickly.
We were looking for a place close to the Goldendale Observatory that our family could spend some time together. This place was perfect for our family with 3 bedrooms, space to hang as a family, and a beautiful view. Everything was clean and there were nice little touches like wireless chargers, specialty coffee makers, telescope, and a welcome basket when we arrived. We would stay here again for sure!
House is well equipped for groups. Large tables inside and out. And kitchen was big enough for us all to cook. Nice common area space. I took the small bedroom, which had a hide-a-bed that was not the most comfortable, but the other two bedrooms were really nice. Nice to have three bathrooms. Good launching spot to explore the area. We took the road less-travelled to Bickleton. It was exquisite. IF you go, do not miss the general store or the Bluebird Inn - thought it was a bar, but was a restaurant. The women who ran both establishments were incredible. We had planned to hit a winery afterwards, but the house is so nice we decided to go back "home" for evening libations. Would definitely recommend.
Very lovely, spacious home. The view of Mt. Hood was spectacular. We saw two mama deer and two babies while there and the birds chirping was a pleasant sound while sitting on the deck. We were 8 women ages 40+ and the sofa bed and the blowup mattress were not ideal for our age group, but we worked things out and slept very well. Host was very attentive staying in touch. Would highly recommend this place if you're going to the Maryhill Winery plus the many others nearby, the Maryhill Museum, Stonehenge and/or the observatory. Restaurants in town were quite good.
This is such a beautiful home in a spectacular place, we didn't get blessed with great weather and we still had a great time. I would recommend this place to anyone.
