Welcome to Our Sweet Retreat — A Vintage- Inspired Escape with a Creative Twist
Tucked into the heart of Wilsonville, this unique property offers three distinct spaces that come together to create one unforgettable stay. Whether you’re planning a peaceful retreat, a creative sabbatical, or a nostalgic escape under the stars, this charming hideaway delivers comfort, character, and a touch of whimsy.

The Farmhouse
Upon entering, you'll be greeted by a fully furnished home, designed with your comfort in mind. Small thoughtful details, designer lighting and tasteful touches compliment the stylish, modern farmhouse decor and create a warm atmosphere making it feel like your very own Home Sweet Home.

From exposed beams to wide plank floors to shiplap walls and so much more, no opportunities have been overlooked to infuse this home with character. Embracing the original features using locally sourced materials while enhancing the home with modern day functionality, let's you experience a stay that truly feels unique.

Hand-selected furniture throughout, comfy beds and soft linens, vintage style bathrooms with heated floors and included toiletry items, a designated desk area and a convenient laundry room are just a few of the home's best features.

The home boasts a smart layout with a sitting area and two bedrooms upstairs, offering solitude and privacy from the rest of the home. While another bedroom can be found on the main level which is perfect for those who need a more accessible option.

The heart of the home is the living room with a handcrafted fireplace and theater style television but the star of the show may be the spacious dining room with custom fans and farmhouse table which blends the two rooms creating the ideal spot for gathering and spending time with your favorite people.

The stunning kitchen definitely doesn't take a back seat showcasing a large concrete island and eat-up bar which creates the perfect passageway for more conversation, easy entertaining and sharing a delicious meal together. Chef or not, you'll always be set with a stocked and functional kitchen.

The Sweet Spot Studio
Just steps from the main house, a detached studio with a sleeping loft and beverage station is your creative cocoon or cozy reading corner. Perfect for remote work, intimate chats, or simply sneaking away for a bit of quiet, this space sleeps up to 2 adults and is designed for grown-up relaxation.

The Camping Corner
When it's not out adventuring, our Shasta Airflyte 19, can be found parked in its own special spot in the corner of the property perched under an old growth apple tree. Fondly referred to, as Lil' Miss Lazy Daisy Lou, this vintage-style trailer is the perfect glamping getaway offering additional space for guests in your party or it can be rented individually. Decked out in retro style, you'll be greeted by a cheery disposition that sets the tone for a fun "old soul, sentimental" stay on wheels without sacrificing any of today's modern conveniences. Completely equipped with an outdoor grill, sink and prep station means you can take your "inner chef" outdoors and whip up your favorite camping fare or kick back and let someone else do the cooking at the many local restaurants nearby. Just steps to your own personal spa space which features an outdoor bath where you can experience a refreshing shower or relax in the deep soaking tub after a bike ride or time spent on the Willamette river. So come enjoy nostalgic moments of time gone by both inside and out with your own camp-like setting which will be perfect for BB Qs, picnics, hammock naps, games, s'mores around the campfire and more! A stay in the Lazy Daisy is guaranteed to put a smile on your face and take you back in time...

Outdoor Living & Play
With over half an acre of native landscaping, fruit trees, and open sky, there’s room to roam, relax, and reconnect. During the summer, feel free to pick fresh herbs or try your hand at gardening, then fire up the BBQ grill and enjoy alfresco dining under the trees for a true farm-to-table experience. Enjoy the back patio area with outdoor furniture or gather around an impressive one-of-a-kind kettle fire pit. A bocce ball court and other lawn games, make having fun a top priority. Plus, venture out for more play year round with your pick of some additional toys.. Don't want to stray from your daily routine? Work out on the elliptical or walk/bike to nearby Graham Oaks Nature Park for your choice of trails. Or visit other popular parks just minutes away for more outdoor activity options.
