Beautiful home, great location
Property was great for three families with young kids. Clean and well appointed (including the kitchen), beautiful home with an even better view in a quiet neighborhood. Good communication with host and with maintenance person who came to check on us during the stay. Good location, just a few minutes up the mountain to get to sledding for the kids. Only two notes. First, the internet is criminally slow. 1mbps slow. Not a problem for us and an excuse to stay off of our phones, but be aware of it heading in. Second, the hottub was clean, but not ready. When we arrived it was only 60 degrees, and it’s a large tub so it takes basically a full day to heat up. Somewhat unavoidable if they needed to change the water between guests, and I’d rather have a clean tub for part of the stay than a dirty tub for all of it. Happy that it was clean, which is not always the case. Great stay and I would stay here again.

Wonderful Family Time
Our family of 8 (6 adults & 2 elementary age kids) stayed 6 days. We enjoyed this clean and extra comfortable cabin with it's amazing view of the Sandy River. The living area and fire place created a cozy space for family games and reading. The kitchen was well stocked for meals. The extra long dining room table was a delight for dining and games. Two ways to do coffee; whole bean option and a Keurig option. The owners thought of everything we needed and could want! We enjoyed the clean hot tub too, with it's million dollar river view!

Wholesome Winter Getaway
This cozy cabin accommodated our big group perfectly! The hosts were also very responsive to our questions and the check in / check out process was seamless. The location was perfect for snowboarding and close by to a local market which had all the necessities if you forgot to pack some things.

Perfect for Thanksgiving
We just got back after staying here for Thanksgiving. We had a large group of 14, several different families. We had a wonderful experience! The house was very well equipped, had just about everything we needed (I has read another review saying they wished there had been a few more baking sheets, so I brought 2 of mine from home) but just about everything we needed to serve Thanksgiving dinner was provided! The location is beyond perfect, we all loved sitting on the back porch or using the hot tub and enjoying the view. The house feels very private despite being in a neighborhood. There were tons of towels and extra blankets and our kiddos loved the bunk room (they found a lot of joy in learning about a VCR). The property has Dish but we would bring a streaming device if we stay here again (next Thanksgiving potentially?) to get access to some other options. As others have mentioned cell service is spotty and the wifi could not keep up with the size of our group but we all used it as an opportunity to disconnect, but it is good to know. The back deck was the star of the show and the access to the river and beach was so amazing. The only other downside was a few of the beds were on the firm side for our group. The carpet was so cushy and the appliances were new and worked great, you can tell they put the money into upgrades where people would really benefit. The host also generously let us check in a little early which was a perfect start to our Thanksgiving holiday!

Wonderful Place to Stay!
If you are looking for a place close to Mt. Hood but not up at Government Camp, this place is a find. Great Space where we had 8 adults staying comfortably. Beautiful Views, two great grills, comfortable beds, and a clean and well maintained hot tub. The kitchen was well equipped for the most part (I would recommend that the owners get one more nonstick pan and a couple of cookie sheets.) The ONLY other suggestion would be to look at an alternative for internet service. The speed isn't fast enough for multiple people to use it without struggling, this would be especially true if you were to try to work a bit while away. We would absolutely stay again, the owners were amazing with communication. 10/10

Annual Family Trip
We take an annual family trip to this general area of Mt. Hood each summer. There are 14 of us ranging from age 6-82! Out of all the houses we have stayed at over the years this one has been our favorite by far! There were so many activities to do within the neighborhood, and lots of hiking and other outings near by. The river was very accessible, even for the oldest in our group. The house was very clean and with a well stocked kitchen. We would definitely stay again!

Absolutely amazing experience!
My husband and I renewed our vows on Mt. Hood with our closest friends and their families, after getting married under Covid restrictions in 2021. We stayed in Chris' cabin with a big group that included eight adults and four young children/babies and fit very comfortably. The cabin was perfect in every way -- fully stocked with everything you could ever need, with spacious living and dining spaces, and a huge deck with an incredible view of the mountains and access to the Sandy River just below. The VHS machine and collection of old cassette tapes in the kids' bunk room was a great touch, as was the jacuzzi on the deck! Chris was such a kind and generous host who responded quickly and went out of his way to accommodate us. This home is truly perfect for a family vacation. I recommend it to everyone and am already planning the next group trip here!

The perfect reunion spot
My 4 siblings and I along with our families had a 5 day celebration of life and family reunion at this gorgeous location in the Sandy River. The house was perfect with lots of room for people to spread out either inside or outside. The bedrooms were amazingly quiet from the rest of the house; all you could hear was the river from your open windows.

Great for all ages!
We booked this house because of it's proximity to the river and the ability to house THREE families (6 adults, 6 kids). When we got there, we were even more impressed with the neighborhood itself- the pool, the swings, and the proximity to fishing/hiking/swimming for the kids. We never ran out of things to do! My favorite part of the house was the huge dining table, which we sat around each night and really enjoyed some fabulous family dinners- plus the massage chair was a nice added bonus. We would've loved a slightly earlier check in time (with young kiddos) but recognize that Ms. Linda (the wonderful woman who cleans the house) has a ton of work to do in order to get it ready. That was really the ONLY thing I would improve. Thank you for such a wonderful stay! We would love to visit again :)

Live, Laugh, Love (TM)
We lived. We laughed. And we loved. Just a group of fellas who enjoyed the cozy and spacious accommodations. Grillin’, hot tubbin’, and enjoyin’ the fabulous view of the river were just what we needed after strenuous days of hiking the bodacious trails of Mt. Hood National Forest. Bathroom facilities were fabulous. The plethora of kitchen appliances were top notch. And there were ample craft supplies. Chris’ communication was fast and cheerful. Just wish the N64 wasn’t missing the TV connection cable ;)

Lovely property! It had everything that we needed except we had some difficulty with WiFi. However since we did not miss it too much we did not check in with owner about it so could be user error. There were some meandering trails within the neighbourhood but if you want a longer hiking trail, you will need to drive a bit. The home was well looked after and has a spectacular view!

Amazing Place to Stay
We really enjoyed our stay! We planned to do a lot of activities in the area, but the property was so nice and relaxing that we ended up spending more time there just hanging out with the kids and relaxing. The river access, the views, and the sound of the rushing water were amazing. Connectivity was slow in general, but that was very helpful in getting the kids off their devices!

River Retreat
“This place is perfect”… I heard that phrase several times as our group of 9 enjoyed a visioning retreat in this well provisioned, well cared for Lodge. The Host and Caretaker were attentive to our inquiries and needs, clearly communicative and friendly. The setting is powerful, with the Sandy River a steady inspiring presence, conveying a sense of natural wonder. We are grateful for the experiences we enjoyed in the sanctuary of the Lodge.
