Willow Ponds Neighborhood

Willow Ponds Neighborhood 8 Lots available in the new Phase 4 addition. All the lots in Willow Ponds are of different sizes, shape and configuration.

Willow Ponds is a neighborhood in Hood River, Oregon which opened in the fall of 2004 by Developer/Designers Jacquie and Pasquale Barone. As developers our goal is to create a neighborhood where neighbors share time together, take care of each other and enjoy the natural environment. We believe smaller, well designed homes allow you more time to
spend quality time with your family, friends and ne

ighbors. People who visit always ask 'What makes Willow Ponds feel so different from other residential neighborhoods"

1) What you won't see at Willow Ponds is tall fences between homes. Homes are designed in relation to each other to create privacy as well as earthen berms planted in trees and shrubs that create a natural screen. To add interest, some privacy panels are created to add screening where needed.

2) What you won't see at Willow Ponds is the same sized rectangle lot with straight streets. Streets are designed in relation to the protected wetlands and the natural contour of the site.

3) What you won't see at Willow Ponds is the same house, same front lawn. Each lot is given a specific limit to its footprint and layout and the homes are designed in relation to the location and the homes around it. Large front yards of lawn are discouraged, however some homes do have lawns in their back yards surrounded by natural borders of trees and shrubs.

4) What you won't see at Willow Ponds is lots of hard surfaces with loads of parked cars along it. The roads in Willow Ponds are private roads owned and maintained by the Homeowners Association as part of of being a PUD development. This allows for narrower streets where parking is in designated off-street parking areas throughout the neighborhood.

5) What you won't see at Willow Ponds is the big tall boxes of houses so tightly built together. Homes in Willow Ponds could be just as close as other homes in other neighborhoods but by designing the homes in relation to each other with respect to scale and elevation and by planting large trees between them, the feeling is different. As the developer of Willow Ponds we are dedicated to working with our new homeowners, designers and builders right to the completion of all 60 lots by providing guidance in house design, landscape design and more. All house and landscape designs go through a review process that allows current homeowners to assure that what has been created continues to be so. We encourage better quality built homes with natural elements that reflect the northwest environment and Hood River's history.

Willow Ponds is full of wonderful landscaped places to walk, sit, garden, swing, slide, play in nature and hang out with your neighbors. We believe everyone benefits from nature and that children can learn so much as they play in nature and get to know their neighbors. When you build a home around these parks you also get to enjoy the beautiful extended views outside your own property.

Just planted some more trees around the new 13 lots in Willow Ponds. If you want a great privacy screen try these Thuja plicata ‘Verescens’ that don’t get too big but give year round privacy. You can pick some up today at Good News Gardening here in Hood River.

Phase 4 is finally under construction. Roads and services are going in for the next 12 lots.

When is Phase 4 happening? Currently we are waiting on permits from the Department of State Lands, The Army Corps of Engineers and DEQ for work within the waterways and wetlands. These permits are taking longer and are more extensive than we had hoped so we are currently on hold till these come through. At this moment it could be closer to a fall start than a summer start.
