A lovely slice of the forest!
It was a little challenging to find the right turn off for the place, and the kitchen equipment was a little rusty, but the place was fantastic! The location is beautiful, the hot tub by the water was a delight, and the 6 of us had a great time.

WE had an incident with the bear attacking our garbage can. That seemed to sort itself out. The real issue that bothered us was all of the English ivy covering all of the trees. It will kill the trees and totally take over the surrounding area. They are invasive

A cozy Mt. Hood Getaway!
We loved this spot! The interior was very cozy and was as advertised. I loved the fire place in the living room. The real star of this place is the hot tub on the deck, which is right next to the Zig Zag river. It’s a large really nice hot tub, and the pleasant sound and view of the river really add to the ambience.

A cozy and easy time near the mountain
The sound of the river, cracking fire and warm lighting and aesthetic made for a relaxing and rejuvenating getaway. The cabin was well cared for, beautiful and well stocked with kitchen tools, fuzzy blankets and games. We loved our stay and look forward to visiting again in the future. The road to the cabin may be difficult to navigate in more extreme weather for those without all wheel or four wheel drive.

Beautiful cabin and setting!
We absolutely loved our stay. However, the tone of our trip could’ve begun on a less stressful note as we were unable to get into the cabin right away. We received a notification telling us the place was ready for an early check-in, so we ditched our late lunch plans and raced over to the cabin to decompress and take advantage of the early check in. Our key code didn’t work, despite numerous tries. We thought perhaps it hadn’t been reset for early arrival so we decided to hang tight on the deck for an hour or so until the initial 4pm check in. At 4pm the code still didn’t work so we got on the phone with customer service. We were on hold for nearly 40 minutes until we eventually got through to someone. After 10 minutes on the line with the agent, she was able to retrieve the code to get into the key box. The door was actually locked and we needed the code to the box to get a physical key in hand to unlock the door. Once we unlocked the door, we received a new code and anxiously grabbed our bags and dashed inside. Relief! Luckily the weather was pleasant while we were locked out for the 2 hours, otherwise we would’ve been really unhappy with the experience. BUT, everything else was magic throughout our weekend stay. Gorgeous cabin (looks even nicer in-person than photos), and incredible setting. Beds are extremely comfortable, kitchen had all the appliances we needed, comfy sofa… Walk through the neighborhood and you won’t find a more charming community.

Gem!
This property was fantastic. The photos don't really do the cabin justice. It is rustic, but beautiful and updated. Beds and couch are very comfortable. reading nook is awesome. My only concerns, the internet wasn't working the whole time, which is problematic because there wasn't cell service either and because of my work, I really needed to be reachable, so had to drive to town to get messages, etc. Vacasa did try to help me reset the equipment, but that didn't work. The power situation is a little sketchy- I think this is why our code didn't work when we were trying to check in and then the internet situation. There is a generator that kicks on when the power goes out which occurred every morning. Again, this wasn't something that would keep me from going there again- I loved the spot and I almost didn't want to include it in the review, but I thought it was fair to do so. Kitchen was well stocked, wonderful layout, very clean and maintained hot tub and home, again, beds were so comfortable. I can't wait to go back - hopefully the power issues and internet will be worked out, because I am already looking forward to returning to this gem. Oh, and the pizza place Al Forno which is super close was some of the best pizza I've ever had, including in Italy!

A gem in the woods
This cabin is absolutely perfect in every way. The location, the layout, the hot tub in the snow, the sounds of the river and even though you feel like you are deep in the woods, you can easily get on highway 26 to get to all the local spots. I would recommend this gem to anyone wanting a relaxing time away in the woods. My complaint about this experience though is dealing with Vacasa customer service. They talk about the wood fire fireplace over and over again in the listing but do not tell you that you have to bring your own wood. They only supplied enough towels for each person for showering but no towels for hot tubbing. I asked if we could get more and they said no. The door knob to one of the bedrooms feel out as soon as we touched it and locked someone in the room and I told them about this and they didn’t even respond. Lastly, I asked for a late check out when we arrived because check out is earlier than most at 10am and they told me to follow a link they sent and it never took me to have the option to get the late check out. I then text them and they told me it was too late to request it now and were not accommodating at all. If I were the owners of this amazing little cabin I would not use Vacasa in the future due to their customer service.

Our friends plan an annual cabin trip and this cabin was everything we were looking for! Fun for adults and perfect for babies who have joined the family! The kitchen was perfectly stocked with appliances like a coffee maker and utensils. It was the perfect size to cook and host for everyone. Bedrooms were cozy and clean. The two bathrooms were convenient and well stocked as well. Best feature of the cabin was the hot tub next to the river. The sounds of the river block out any noise from the highway or neighbors. I’d love to book this place again in the future!

Vacasa Should Be Ashamed of Themselves
Let me start by saying the property is absolutely stunning. Views for days and a cozy cabin feeling that can’t be replicated. That being said, on our initial night in the property our child ended up being locked in a bathroom because of a faulty door for nearly 3 hours and Vacasa didn’t send anyone to assist until we were 2 hours into trying to get our kiddo out. After a string of snarky texts and a representative who essential told us we were on our own because the property manager was off the grid and maybe we should call the fire department to break down the door (all while we’re trying to comfort a claustrophobic kid), we received a call from the property manager letting us know he had just been contacted (contrary to what the rep previously said) and would be there in 10 minutes. He ended up having to scale the side of the house, break in through the bathroom window and ultimately remove the bathroom screen and door to set our child free. Both the door and screen were discarded in one of the bedrooms and we never heard from Vacasa again. We texted, called and emailed a number of times in the days following and the ONLY response was a conciliatory “thank you for your patience, we’ll forward this to the property manager…” We’ve since checked out and still not a word from anyone at Vacasa. My child continues to be overwhelmed by the experience and it ruined our entire family vacation. We’re honestly not sure where to go from here, but suffice to say we’re not planning on sweeping it under the rug.

Rat infestation
House was great. I feel badly for the owners. Vacasa was awful to work with. They didn't have the house ready at 4:00 so we had to wait outside for 40 mins. Then the first night in the house we realize that there is a mouse or rat problem in the kitchen. Called and emailed Vacasa. They sent over sticky traps for us to put down and then left. The next night we caught the rat and had to dispose of it ourselves. Emailed Vacasa again. Never heard back. At this point I have emailed them 4 times and never got a response. We expect a refund or compensation for our troubles but still hear nothing. Will not be renting any house that is managed from Vacasa again and would advise others to do the same.

Beautiful cabin curated with you in mind.
This cabin delivers the Hygge vibe and we loved the newly remodeled interior and deck with hot tub. The cabin's layout is unique with a large central living space with a fireplace that flows to the kitchen and dining area to feel connected with our family and friends. Everything about this place's fit and finish is premium and stands out from most rentals that feel like someone's worn out summer cabin. This place is perfect to chase some solitude, walking distance to trails, and best of all you can bring your pup to enjoy the local activities! We'll be back!

Beautiful spot on the river
A beautiful spot to enjoy the jacuzzi on the deck, hiking the forest trails near by, relaxing with a blazing fire and cooking in the well-equipped kitchen. One suggestion I’d make is to cut the firewood to fit in the fireplace more easily. The logs left were simply too big to manage safely. Also fireplace prongs would be a great addition.
