Very nice, a few additions would make it better
It was nice! We used it as more of a basecamp to go to Timberline for the weekend, but we got to enjoy the hot tub. It's a very, very quiet area and at night it feels like there are no neighbors around. However... Facing the house, to the right the neighbors are EXACTLY on the edge of the property and there isn't much yard space in-between the property lines. There is a house behind bordering the back yard as well, but there are a lot of trees in-between so it's not so bad. There is a large space of land to the left so no issues there. It would feel a lot nicer with a tall fence bordering the property to the right that lines up against this one, especially in the back yard due to the hot tub. There are some areas of fence back there which helps, but it would feel more private with a longer, complete fence. Second, people were not joking about the bed being firm. This has been a long-term complaint from the reviews, and truly I can sleep better on my backpacking sleeping pad on the literal ground than I did on this bed. A simple foam topper for less than $150 would make a big difference for comfort and a simple solution to what seems to be the top complaint.

Needs new furniture and attention to landscaping asap
Nice house, nice layout, nice space for family of 4 to 6. But needs major attention to be a better rental. The furniture sucks: the queen bed is hard as a board, pillows all flat and hard, couches sink way down/low (and we are not big people), futon frame broken/sagging. No futon sheets available. The furniture is basically from 1985 and exceeded its life span 20 years ago. The outside of the property doesn't look like it's been tended to for about a year or 2. It is very overgrown, you cannot really even walk around the back "yard".

Barely anything worked
The thermostat, stove, and hot tub didn’t work properly. It took the hot tub two full days to even get above 70°. Really disappointed. Called the service line and they said they were sending someone to fix it and no one came. We had to run space heaters to keep the house a reasonable temperature and to make sure our baby’s room didn’t get freezing. Will not be staying there again or using Vacasa’s facilities.

Nice cabin for mt hood access
Overall nice, however unfortunately the hot tub was not working when we arrived. They had sent an email beforehand to let us know which was buried in spam folder so was a surprise. When I called the number they said they wouldn't be able to send anyone out to fix it, but then a maintenance person did actually show up to fix it that night. He had to drain it and unfortunately it took more than 48 hours for the water to actually heat up to a usable temperature because the power of the outlet is only 120V instead of 220V. Beds were also quite uncomfortable. The place is heated by the gas fireplace which has to be turned off when you leave so when we came back the place was quite chilly and took a few hours to warm back up to a good room temperature. They did provide space heaters though. Probably good place for the price, right off highway 26 and easy access to ski lodges, but not the most luxurious lodgings. Firepit in the back was nice.

Unique cabin in an interesting place.
This was our fist time in an A-Frame cabin and it was different. The kiddo loved the bunk bed in the loft. It took some tries to get the key box to open, but we finally got it. Although there are a lot of cabins in that area the thick forest makes it feel private. We went skiing at Skibowl and it was only 20 minutes away.

GAS STOVE DID NOT WORK
The gas stove in the living room did not work. The maintenance guy was great and told us the pilot light needed to be relit. He offered to come do it for us, but we decided to go with the space heaters. We actually got the pilot light to light but it would not stay on. Space heaters were not sufficient to heat the room. We will not return to that cabin.

Everything but the bed
Overall the place was lovely. Clean, cool and well stocked, we had everything we needed for a getaway. The firepit and grill were excellent, but the slight lack of privacy from the back was disconcerting. Our only major complaint was the bed, which was absolutely horrible. I ended up sleeping on the pull-out upstairs and my partner used the couch. Ultimately we got a good nights rest but I cannot imagine just having the bed. Oddly the bunk bed mattresses felt very comfortable. If only I weren't two feet too tall for them...

Nice Location
So before I even stayed there, after I booked, I received a things to know about my stay. In that email it outlined visitor policy, quiet hours, neighbors, etc. What bothered me was that it told me I am not allowed to have visitors to the property that are not listed on the reservation without getting approval first. It also stated that the neighbors will call the police on you if you are too noisy and you will be assessed a separate fee due to this. This should be something that should have been on the post so people know exactly what is expected before booking, if these do not fit you needs. Like if you are a grandparent and you are in town visiting. Customer service and maintenance need to better at prioritizing maintenance calls. The night I checked in, the heater for the main space was not working and there was only one small space heater. I understood it was too late for someone to come out that evening and I was assured they would be there to repair it the next morning around 10:30. I waited and around 2pm I called them back. I was assured they would be there. By 7pm that evening I once again called back and was told once again they would be there the next morning. Finally mid-morning they came to fix it, the pilot light was out. There should be more effort to make sure main items in the house are in working order before the guest arrives. Other than those two things it was a nice place to stay, even with the neighbors being super close it was still private feeling. But the bed in the main bedroom is absolutely terrible. Pillows are also super flat.

A not so relaxing weekend
Unfortunately we had to leave our vacation a day early due to absolute dissatisfaction and an inability to get any sleep on the most uncomfortable bed I have EVER experienced. To begin, we were not prepared for the run down condition of the grounds. That was a bit shocking to say the least. But we were still excited to get inside and cozy in for this long awaited weekend of relaxing. As we began unloading and putting groceries away we began to notice ants, big ones, all over the kitchen. Not a great start to our trip. When I went to use the downstairs bathroom, lo and behold the ants greeted me there as well. The hot tub was the one saving grace. It was heated and clean. Awesome! After dinner, we went to sit on the couch to watch a movie and the couches, ugh!!! So broken down that we practically rolled into one another. I don't need the Taj Mahal but come on...if you are going to rent out your home you should have functional and semi comfortable furnishings......and that bed in the master.....are you KIDDING ME!!! That is THE worst bed ever. Oh, I see I already mentioned that in my first paragraph. Well, that's because it was awful. Oh, and did I mention that there were ants in the bedroom too? Yep. We went to bed at 10:30 and tossed and turned until 1:15 am when we finally got up and tried the futon and bunk beds. No better. Needless to say due to lack of sleep and feeling sick because of it we felt forced to come home. There was no answer at the phone number provided in the book. And the main customer service line had 118 calls in queue. How was I supposed to address my issues in a timely manner? So we just came home. We put the cleaner in the hot tub. Washed our towels. Cleaned the kitchen. Washed our dishes. You must think I'm a terrible person given all my complaints. It's mostly due to my lack of sleep. Yes, there were some nice attention to details. But I'm sorry, they were overshadowed by our grave disappointments with a lack of creature comforts.

Peaceful getaway in the snow
The cabin had a great location that was easy to get to but far enough away from the main road that we didn’t hear anything. My family had a great time watching and playing in the snow and working the puzzles provided. Everything we needed was provided. We would definitely come back again. I had read in the recent reviews that the dishwasher was broken and was a little surprised that it hadn’t been fixed yet. We didn’t use the hot tub but I did peak in and ... it could use a good cleaning.

So i never heard back from anyone through the phone number you guys provides . On arrival the dishwasher was full of dirty dishes with a sign that said out of order. The hot tub was also dirty and didnt get above 98 degrees. Mold is also visible on the high ceilings. The promised waffle maker was also missing. Pretty disappointing stay.

A nice break from the city, but still connected if you wish.
It's nice that there's WiFi, two smart TV's with apps like Amazon and Netflix, but you can still get away from technology here. The TV credenza holds a plethora of games to keep you occupied and engaged. We played Trivial Pursuit and Cranium (we brought our own Scrabble and played that, as well). There's a well-equipped kitchen, which allowed us to make a nice meal and prepare snacks. Bring your own coffee creamer. I bought some and left it behind for the next guests, because I assumed it would be stocked. My bad! Thriftway is close, and we also found great restaurants nearby. The shower is powerful, the bathrooms were super clean, and we weren't short of hot water. We left wanting to get our own hot tub. It was clean and excellent! I wish we'd bought s'mores makings, because the fire in back is inviting. There's a BBQ if you're so inclined. There were some spiders, but we're used to that. We saw that in a previous review. If you have the pleasure of living near trees, you have the pleasure of sharing space with spiders. The mattress was also surprisingly firm, and I was worried I would sleep poorly, but it was actually rather comfortable after settling into it. We enjoyed our stay.
