Here in Oregon, we’re always trying to find ways to get as close to nature as possible. So an opportunity to spend the night floating on the Columbia River? Yes, please. And happily, there’s an Oregon AirBNB that lets you do just that. The Tomahawk Island Cozy Houseboat is a floating tiny home that’s docked at the Tomahawk Bay Marina on Hayden Island. Offering scenic views of the captivating Columbia River, this Oregon houseboat is a dreamy little retreat in one of the state’s most spectacular and scenic spots.

In Oregon, houseboats are everywhere.
