Lake Oswego is an area located near Portland, but maintains it's own city, fire and school district. Near enough to downtown Portland, but separate and clearly a city in its own rights, Lake Oswego is distinct as being one of the Metro Portland PREMIERE neighborhoods. A very good mix of condo/town home and planned communities such as Mountain Park (a nice neighborhood in Lake Oswego), and large estates.

Lake Oswego has it all. Even its own lake -- hence Lake Oswego -- where boating, fishing and paddle boats are favorite activities. July 4th fireworks are fantastic and the city puts on a good display each year.

Little known fact; Lake Oswego has a sub-division planned by a Tolkien aficionado with such names as Hobbit Ct., Rivendell, Lothlorien Way, Hillshire as actual streets names -- and a gorgeous area it is. Lake Oswego is...Lake Oswego. A city within the shadow of Portland, Oregon, but a city unto its own.

Carla, what a neat idea with the Tolkien theme.  Will they have the Hobbitt homes?  Those were so cool in the movies.  :-)

Stefan, thanks for your comments!  The neighborhood is well-established with homes on large lots, and large houses.  I'm afraid Frodo would be gobbled up by the size of these places!!  There is a current listing on Tolkien Lane, over 3400 sq. ft., list price $724,000
