A Relaxing Weekend
This cabin is close to the river, so we loved that we could hear the water. The cabin is really nice and has a rustic feel to it, even-though it has all amenities needed. I was impressed by the nice appliances and the overall layout of the place. Its surprisingly large.

Private Riverfront Cabin
I stayed at this cabin-like private residence on the river with two brothers (25&26) for a disc golf trip to the Milo McIver course roughly 45 minutes away. Very close to Mt Hood. Hot tub, board games, fully equipped kitchen were excellent features. We enjoyed our stay and would recommend!

Beautiful location
We choose this home based on the location and nearness to Mt. Hood where our daughter was at snowboard camp. The house is in a quiet neighborhood, by the zigzag river, and had a hot tub to enjoy after a day out exploring. The house is cabin-like and being in the woods comes with more earthy and damp smells of nature. We spent most of the day time out exploring. The kitchen was equipped so that our family could cook and grill easily with all essential items and more.

Lovely house, very private, very clean
Lovely house, very private, very clean & nice, plenty of room for just the 2 of us. Lots of bedding & towels (good quality), very nice kitchen. Convenient for some very nice hikes in Mt. Hood National Forest. My quibbles are very 1st world & thus the 4 stars instead of 5. 1st of all my issue is with virtually all vrbo listings, please just tell us the real cost up front & directly. I hate it when you think, oh, that's a reasonable price & then all the added fees make it twice the original price. I am fine the size of the cleaning fee as it's a big house & if all the beds had needed to be changed that would be a big job, & I just always hope the people actually doing the work are getting the actual $. Then when I am asked to pay that kind of cleaning fee, I'm still supposed to start the laundry for them? Mostly at this place I resent there is a hot tub fee but the point is, it's not optional so really, it's not a fee, it should just be incorporated into the price of the house. Just be honest folks. 2nd quibble is that there was no information binder telling us things like how the heat worked (took us until the next morning to figure that out) or give ideas about local hikes & such. We always appreciate that kind of information/recommendations. Another source would have been a guest book but there wasn't one of those. Then it turned out that some of the information was in a link they sent us on the day we checked in that merely said "review your trip" not, hey, here's helpful information for your stay, so we hadn't clicked on the link b/c we had the enter code & directions (though our GPS didn't recognize the address but Google maps did) so we didn't feel we needed to "review" anything. Again, all 1st world quibbles & not a reason to deter you from booking this beautiful place. It's peaceful & comfortable, plenty of room for a crowd & very clean. We loved Mt. Hood National Forest.

The views were amazing but whenever we cooked in the kitchen the smoke alarm went off and we had all the windows open. We could not build a fire in the campfire area due to fire season but were never told about this. Lastly mid stay a board fell from the ceiling onto my husbands head giving him a concussion. Then we were afraid the rest of the stay that more boards would fall down. Vacasa only refunded 100 dollars of our total trip. Also the bedrooms are not very private.

Great place for a woodsy getaway
Easy booking, home was clean, sleeping arrangements accommodate our family very nice. Great to have a grill, and hot tub. Kids had fun watching the salmon jumping out of the river and a few bald eagles. Wish the kitchen had a few spices other than that kitchen had everything you would need.

Cabin on the zigzag
Wifi info was a bit confusing, but we got the straighten out quickly. Over all the only thing to say is our time was to short and wished we booked for another night. Kitchen and baths are decked out to the nines and very enjoyable. Bedrooms , beds and bedding very nice and clean. Space of the cabin is spacious and comfy. Views from inside looking out is beautiful. Setting is wonderful.
