Uniontown Boat View Loft  |  Apartment in Astoria

Summary:
The Uniontown Boat View Loft is an upstairs apartment in an old duplex building, situated directly beside the Oregon coastal highway 101, giving it close access to bars, coffee shops, restaurants, and the piers. The windows look over the 101, nearby businesses, the Astoria-Megler bridge, and the Columbia River, where barges pass regularly. Please keep in mind that this is an older, quirky home! Works best for travelers who want a comfy, not a modern, space.
The Space:
The space is comprised of a fully stocked kitchen, living room, bathroom, two king-sized bedrooms, and laundry room, which also contains an extra sleeper futon for larger groups (ideal for younger guests and kids). The back door leads to a small deck, with rear-stairwell leading out into a quiet, shared back yard space. Pets are welcome.
Guest Access:
Two off-street parking spots are provided for your use. While it is possible to access downtown on foot, we recommend guests headed downtown to get there via car, as it is a longer (approx 30 min) walk. Many options for shops, restaurants, gas, and nearby services lie within 10 minutes driving distance.
The Neighborhood:
We love the close access to restaurants, bars and shops that this apartment offers. We also enjoy the proximity to the piers and the Columbia River.
Getting Around:
Two off-street parking spots are available for guests. Please use caution when turning onto the highway 101, as it can get busy and cars go by quickly. All amenities (gas, shops, dining) are within 10 minutes drive from the apartment. Also, be aware that many businesses in Astoria close around 8pm, so make sure to plan ahead for dinner etc. when arriving late.
Other Things to Note:
There is no a/c.
The Boat View house is on the main road, so please expect loud rush hour (4-7pm) and morning rush (7-9am) noise from cars.
The windows of the living room are older and do not provide the same clear visibility that they used to.
Interaction with Guests:
We are available via text or Airbnb messages for any questions
