A rather basic, quite remote, comfortable house about 30 minutes from Crater Lake

If you are looking for peace and quiet in a remote area of southern Oregon, this is the place for you. The Riverhouse is about 40 miles from the nearest town and has an expansive yard on the river with picnic tables, a grill and lots of chairs outside. Inside is spacious, with an excellent master bed, an acceptable, small bathroom (lots of hot water) and a very workable kitchen with more than enough equipment. When the weather is good, it is a good base for exploring the area and hiking trips to Crater Lake. Unfortunately, after 2 days of beautiful weather, it turned cold and we had rain, snow, sleet and hail and were more or less housebound for a couple of days. In that situation, a good TV with cable, maybe a DVD player and a better radio would have been welcome. We were warm enough with all the the space heaters in the house and were certainly able to cook our meals with no problem but we had come for Crater Lake and it was a shame that it was lost to the fog and snow. This is, of course, no fault of the house, which is very comfortable. Tim was wonderfully kind, offering us warm clothes, suggestions about where to go and continually checking to make sure we were OK. All in all, a good experience. Next time, we will bring warm clothes.

Serenity at its finest!

This place was so beautiful. I loved the charm of the old house coupled with the peaceful river next to the property! I wish that we could have stayed longer, we were passing through on our way to Crater Lake. Communication was great and fast with the owner!

Crater Lake

Nice place to stay when visiting Crater Lake - about 20 miles away. A bit dated but clean and comfortable. Only 1 bathroom plus a portapotty.

Great Crater Lake location

Great place for our family trip to Crater Lake NP. Nice location for all the activities. River access was awesome. Only downside was the porta pot as second bathroom. Not a deal breaker and I understand the cost and effort for another. All in all a very nice place to call a home base while in Fort Klamath. Thanks for sharing your place.

Amazing! As advertised!

This place is amazing! The property is very well maintained and larger than it looks in the pictures, and nicer! I will definitely stay here again anytime I'm near Crater Lake! Incredible view of the sky/stars too! Host was very responsive and friendly, and the location is very convenient and close to local shops and attractions. The house was in fine working order and no problems at all.

About the host

Hosted by Tim Wiest

I grew up 15 miles from The Riverhouse and have admired this property since I was a child. We have 4 sons between us and 10 grand children. Number 11 is on the way. We love the Riverhouse and spend as much time in Southern Oregon as possible.

Why they chose this property

If you want privacy and peace come to the Riverhouse. Sit on the deck in the morning with a cup of coffee and watch the river go by. Birds are chirping, Eagles overhead. Fish from the yard, play horse shoes, just enjoy the nataral beauty of this property. BBQ on the deck at dinner time, enjoying the river and birds and squirrels. Gaze at the Milky Way and the rest of the Heavens at night.

What makes this property unique

Close to Crater Lake. An Oregon State fish hatchery 5 miles away. Peace and quiet in your own place. Lots of trails to hike and bike. Seven Lakes Basin is just a ten minute drive, Klamath Basin is home to two national wildlife refuges. Sun Pass State Forest is ten minutes north, the historic Fort Klamath site is two minutes drive or a nice 15 minute walk. I recommend the walk to the Fort to take in the Cascade Mountain range, the cattle grazing on miles of pasture, it's just a great place to see.
