Modern Retreat Near River, Golf, Boating, Fishing, Pickleball & Gorge Concerts!

Feel the calm set in as you step onto the patio and take in the mountain views.

Go for a round of golf in the morning, then head out for a day of boating on the Columbia, more like a lake then a river in this area. Or just soak up the sun by the community pool (SEASONAL Memorial Day - Labor Day).

In the evening take in a concert at the Gorge, or just relax by the fire pit.

Desert Sky House is in the best part of Desert Aire with close proximity to the pool, golf, pickleball, boat launch & park.

We have an exterior security camera on the garage facing the driveway, and an exterior doorbell camera at the front door.

Communication
The house exceeded our expectations. it was extremely clean and looked great. I had a few questions a couple of days leading up to our stay and also when we got there. They responded very quickly and had no problems with all of my questions. Hopefully it will be available the next time we go down there.

Quick getaway for a football game
We had a great stay and loved the home! Thank you for sharing! It was perfect for our group to relax. We made all of our meals in the beautiful kitchen, watched a lot of football, and played games around the nice dining room table. Thank you! I would highly recommend this VRBO!

The house was very comfortable and fresh! The area is so different from our stay in Seattle and we enjoyed the River, the pool, the restaurants in town, and the wonderful vista. Not to be missed and this house is the place to stay!!!
