Vaulted interiors, curved walls, and abundant natural light give this space a design-forward feel that’s both inspiring and relaxing.

Perfect for couples, design lovers, and anyone seeking a one-of-a-kind getaway.

## Neighborhood

Right across the road from the marina is the biking and walking trail that goes for miles along the river. Easy access to city highlights like the Alberta Arts District, downtown Portland, and outdoor adventures along the waterfront make this spot ideal for both relaxation and exploration.

Portland, Oregon.

## Getting Around

🚶 Walking — A walking and biking trail runs along the river across the road from the marina.

🚌 Bus — Use TriMet’s current trip planner to check routes and the nearest stops. A car or rideshare is helpful for getting around from the marina.

🚗 Driving — Parking for one standard vehicle is included in the gated marina lot. Additional or oversized vehicles require advance approval. Easy freeway access via I-5 and I-205. Rideshare (Uber/Lyft) is another option.
