Additional Information

Tucked away in southwest Washington near mountains and ocean beaches, close enough to Portland’s urban lifestyle of culture, nightlife, shopping, great food trucks, and brewpubs, but just outside of the hustle and bustle and traffic. Kelso offers a great small-town community feel and is only two hours from ski slopes in (White Pass in Naches, WA, or Mt. Hood in Government Camp, OR). If skiing is not your thing, there is also access to rivers for fishing, kayaking, rafting, or day hikes within 30-minutes.  Plus, the pristine coastal beaches of WA and OR are only an hour and a half away!
