Framed by Nature: Picture Windows with River Views: Kalama Oaks' Panorama Suite

9.6 out of 10, Exceptional, (4)
"This property is VERY nice and clean with an awesome view. Judy the host was extremely communicative and worked with us to have a later check out time due to our son's golf tournament. My only negatives were as pretty as the view is, you definitely heard nothing but noise from I-5. The steepness of the driveway and parking should be noted in description. I can't imagine trying to navigate that in the winter months. "
