Birthday getaway
I took my partner and thier friend to this house and it was a great time. We ended up going up to the mountain and relaxing with a well deserved dip in the hot tub.

Summer vacation
Nice location right on the creek. Close to Mount Hood and activities. We really enjoyed our stay! A couple of maintenance issues: front right burner on the stove didnt work; outdoor grill was broken; 2 of 4 jets in hot tub didn't function.

Lovely rustic home
We loved this quiet property on the river with wood stove and hot tub. Plenty of seating for everyone with open kitchen. Close to sled parks and Skibowl. Will definitely stay here again!!

Great cabin!
Loved the property! Hot tub was fantastic and the creek is beautiful. The house was very well stocked - many kitchen supplies and extra blankets, etc. The only reason I'm not giving a 5 star review is due to the accuracy of the listing - the listing advertises 4 twin beds in the third bedroom, and in reality there were only 3.

Very disappointed that the hot tub didn’t work
The hot tub was broken the whole time which was a huge bummer. Otherwise we really loved the space and the location. The creek was a huge plus, easy to walk to and very peaceful. I am only leaving a 3 star review because of the hot tub and that we received little to no response regarding when it would be fixed.

Great for families.
Wonderful cozy cabin in a beautiful setting. We found it very clean and stocked with everything we needed. The property manager was attentive and took care of issues immediately. We stayed here with our daughter and her family. Children from 1-10 and we all loved it. I would highly recommend this property. We enjoyed it so much we hope to return.

This was a great spot for a ski weekend with friends! The kitchen was well equipped, and the hot tub was lovely. Lots of movies and books, close to the mountain, and plenty of space to spread out!

Nice stay
The house was old and charming. We enjoyed the snow. The driveway was dangerous with the ice and on a curve in the road but started melting while we were there.

Poorly maintained exterior
The house was as described. However, NO ONE had ever shoveled the stairs, the deck, the drive, nor the hot tub area. Luckily no one slipped on the stairs going into the front door. I would NEVER rent this house again in the winter. Apparently the landlord does not care if they get sued due to the lack of attention on the outside stairs going to the front door. The hot tub was totally non-usable also!!
