Love Bill, Cathy & the Kids Serenity
is peaceful and beautiful, but it is also a work of art and a labor
of love, by master craftsman, Richard, who built it, along with
his wife, Becca. You won't find two nicer, more accomodating people.
A large bowl of fruit welcomed us, and Becca reviewed the "essentials"
of the home. We celebrated my 60th bithday, with family and friends
of all ages, and everyone had a great time. This unique, well designed,
spacious, and comfortable home is a treasure! The gourmet kitchen
opens to a family room with firelace, and a large deck that is the
perfect place to gather for a glass of wine, a meal, or to take
in the beauty of nature and quietly read a book. There's a hot tub
with large towels and various sized flip flops provided. This beautiful
log home has everything, and is waiting for you to visit. We did,
and we had a fun, relaxing, and simply fantastic time. We will be
back soon! We
so enjoyed staying at Serenity. It was a perfect place to celebrate
my son's 40th Birthday - and what a surprise to him to see his family
here from Georgia and Idaho. It was a great place for the 7 children
to play and enjoy nature. We definitely will want to return for
future family get-togethers. Thank you so much! We
had a wonderful Time in "Serenity'! Between the foosball, poker
and other games, it was truly a family retreat. Thanks for your
hospitality! Becca
and Richard, From Around the Web: www.resortsandlodges.com We
loved your beautiful Log Cabin Retreat! I feel very lucky to have
been able to spend my 41st Birthday Celebration here. We enjoyed
your GRAND Home. The amazing beauty of the TREES and view of Mt
Hood, the comfy Hot Tub, cozy fire, settling in with the many good
books and magazines, watching movies, playing chase with our almost
3 year old, eating the delicious truffles you were so gracious to
have made and just relaxing in the comfy couches! We wish we could
stay one more night - even our daughter Violet wants to stay! Weather
was beautiful - able to drive a little to go sledding! Enjoyed the
view of the full moon in Sunday night. We will be back! The
Gularte Clan loves your home. Thank you SO much for sharing it with
us. The Snow was awesome! The setting was peaceful and our Spring
Break was perfect. Thank you. We will be back! This
was the perfect getaway for the Mogel clan - beautiful setting -
great accommodations! We will definitely be letting everyone we
know about Serenity! We will be back again! Dear

beauty everywhere you turn, but you can actually feel it. Being

stay forever. At
every turn, we were impressed with the attention to detail. From

a horror film. Thank you so much.
