About This Home
Located in scenic Columbia County, Oregon, The Farm at Tide Creek offers a rare opportunity to enjoy world-class waterfowl and big game hunting, farming, and ranching—all just an hour from Portland and a major international airport. Spanning approximately 438 acres, the property features a diverse mix of ponds, creeks, forests, wetlands, and meadows, creating exceptional habitat for Roosevelt elk, waterfowl, deer, and a wide array of birds. Formerly known as the legendary Gary Loomis Duck Club, the property was acquired in 2020 by a conservation-minded owner with a clear vision: to restore the land for wildlife, recreation, and family enjoyment. Since then, the farmhouse has been tastefully renovated to provide a comfortable and welcoming retreat, while significant improvements were made to the landscape. Invasive blackberries and outdated fencing were removed, new hunting blinds were installed, and natural habitats were enhanced to support resident and migratory species. Approximately two-thirds of the property is protected under conservation easements, enriching the ecological value while preserving around 135 acres of productive, tillable ground for crops or grazing. Supporting structures include a renovated 1,728-square-foot, four-bedroom, four-bath farmhouse; a 72' x 120' barn with shop space, bunk room, and full bathroom; a 28' x 96' equipment and decoy building with a dedicated duck club room; and a 30' x 60' equipment storage building. The Farm at Tide Creek is a turn-key legacy property that combines premier hunting, a peaceful rural lifestyle, and long-term conservation value—all in one extraordinary package.
