The detail

If you are looking for a wonderfully unique holiday home set in the beautiful wilderness of rural Oregan, then The Lookout at Summit Prairie is the place for you. Sleeping four guests high up in the sky, this marvellous dwelling is built on top of a tower giving you unrivalled views of your incredible surroundings. The Lookout is based on the Fire Lookout Towers built by the US Forest Service in the early Nineteen Hundreds and sits within 160 acres of private land, meaning you have lots to explore.

The lookout has a warm, open plan living area complete with a fully functional kitchen, and a spacious dining table. There's also windows on all sides ensuring you get a 360 view of the Oregon wilderness that's made up of mountains, valleys, and trees. In the morning open up the doors and venture out onto your terrace where you can sit with a coffee, feeling the sunshine on your face and breathing in the fresh country air. The terrace outside is also home to a hot tub, which makes relaxing and taking in the view even more luxurious!

You can even enjoy the view from the comfort of your bed, with the first double bed having windows on three sides. This double is up the ladder and sits in the loft space, meaning it's cosy and separated from the rest of the property. The other two beds are down in the communal living space on the benches that sit on either side of the property.

Whilst guests love to spend time reading, playing games, and meditating, all whilst soaking up the surroundings, those who do venture out have lots of fab day trips on offer. Crater Lake is two hours away, and Ashland, the site of the Oregon and Shakespeare Festival, is just an-hour-and-a-half away. The historic Jacksonville, the site of the annual Britt Festival, is an-hour-and-a-half drive from your door as well. Adrenaline junkies can travel just 45 minutes and have a go at Rogue River Rafting, whilst South Umpqua Falls is also just three-quarters-of-an-hour away.
