A HOT-AIR-BALLOON-THEMED 5-BEDROOM ESCAPE FOR YOUR WHOLE CREW IN WALLA WALLA ...

Gathering the whole crew in Walla Walla wine country this summer? Picture everyone under one roof at Soaring Spirit: a spacious, hot-air-balloon-themed five-bedroom home where the hot tub is bubbling, the firepit is ready for s'mores, a pool-table tournament is underway in one game room while the arcade lights up another, and a big group dinner is coming together across two full kitchens. This is the home built for the trips you will be talking about for years.



Planning a getaway for twelve people should not mean booking a row of cramped hotel rooms, splitting your group across town, and hunting for a restaurant that can seat everyone. It should feel easy. Soaring Spirit gives your family or friends one comfortable, playful, thoughtfully stocked place to gather, spread out, and actually be together. Unpack once, pour a local glass, and let the celebration begin.



WHY GROUPS CHOOSE SOARING SPIRIT

- Sleeps up to 12 across 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms — real room to spread out, not bunk beds in a basement

- TWO full kitchens, so cooking for a crowd never turns into a traffic jam

- A private hot tub and a s'mores-ready firepit for long summer evenings under the stars

- Two game rooms — pool table, classic arcade machines, and a digital game table — plus a home theater with a 72-inch TV

- Minutes to downtown Walla Walla, dozens of award-winning wineries, and tasting rooms

- Thoughtfully stocked and spotless, with the kind of proactive, 5-star host communication that makes a big group trip effortless



ROOM FOR EVERYONE — THE SPACE (SLEEPS 12)

Soaring Spirit was designed for groups to gather and still find their own corner.

- 5 comfortable bedrooms with large, quality beds and fresh linens, plus extra pillows and blankets

- 4 bathrooms stocked with the essentials, hair dryers, and plenty of hot water for a full house

- Multiple living and lounge areas with 9 smart TVs throughout, so the kids' movie and the grown-ups' game can happen at the same time

- Central heating and air conditioning, ceiling fans, and a cozy fireplace for cooler evenings

- Long-term stays are welcome, and there is accessible parking on site



TWO FULL KITCHENS — COOK FOR A CROWD

Anyone who has cooked for twelve knows one kitchen is never enough. Soaring Spirit gives you two, each a full kitchen with a refrigerator, oven, stove, microwave, dishwasher, coffee maker, blender, air fryer, crock pot, and the cooking basics, dishes, and glassware you need to actually pull off a group meal. Lay out a wine-and-cheese spread on one island while breakfast comes together on the other. There is generous dining space and alfresco seating outside, plus a barbecue for grilling on warm Walla Walla evenings.



PLAY WITHOUT LEAVING HOME

The best group trips have a home base that is its own destination, and Soaring Spirit delivers from morning to midnight:

- Private hot tub for starlit soaks after a day in the vineyards

- S'mores-ready firepit and an outdoor fireplace for easy evenings together

- Two game rooms: a pool table, classic arcade machines, and a digital game table for friendly rivalries

- A movie room with a 72-inch TV for family movie night

- Life-size yard games and a yard with lush green grass for lazy summer afternoons

- Fast Wi-Fi throughout and an EV charger on site for your road trip
