The Neighborhood:
The Father Blanchet Park Neighborhood is perched on a hill that looks down and south across the Columbia River to Portland and its international airport. The neighborhood has easy access to state Highway 14 and Interstates 5 and 205 and is a very short trip to the airport and other Portland destinations.

This home also sits just 5 miles from the local boat launch, Marine Park, and with ample parking for boats at the house, we look forward to you floating, boating and picnic-ing during your stay with us!

The neighborhood is almost entirely residential and full of beautiful, classic homes, most built during the coveted mid-century. It is a well established neighborhood with large lots and homes with character. Many neighbors have lived in the neighborhood since their homes were built, and as a result, has a very friendly, neighborly vibe.

Getting Around:
-- You'll want to bring a car to get around while staying at this home.
-- There is parking for one car/small crossover at this home.
-- Please do not park in the street. You will be towed!
