My friends and I needed a place to get together to celebrate our Christmas and found this cute little cabin. We had a great time and were able to really make the place feel like our own! Dawn was a fantastic host and was very communicative about the whole process. Highly recommend!

Great hangout or overnight spot.
Dawn has done a great job creating a beautiful spot to stay in a great community with good food and coffee nearby. You can tell they have put a lot of attention to details, and have a well stocked kitchen and everything worked great. We grilled, the AC kept things cool, and we weren't left searching for items or bedding or anything.

Perfect!
This place met all of our needs! Location is great near all the restaurants and only 20min from Trillium Lake and just around corner to Salmon River Trail which is an awesome swimming hole that the host, Dawn, told us about. Beds were comfy! The two large couches comfy to sleep on. They have air conditioning!! Dawn was great with communication and tolerated all of my questions. Lol she really is great! I highly recommend this place!!

Great for short stays
Great communication from property manager. She answered all questions in a timely manner and was available to assist during our stay. The electric fireplace wasn't working during our stay so that was kind of a bummer but it was still plenty warm using the home heaters. There was no place to cook food except for the outdoor grill so long stays might be difficult for cooking. Not much around the location of the home, and it was farther than anticipated from the Mt. Hood railroad that we came for but thats my fault for assuming it would be closer. We stayed one night and it met our needs. It's a cute and cozy home, lots of places for people to sleep! We fit 4 adults, 2 kids, and 1 infant.

Not impressed.
Power was out due to wild fire mitigation. Host did not warn us about this even though she knew this could happen. We drove all the way down (250 miles) and had to turn around and go home because there was no power in the town and townsfolk said it would stay out all weekend.

A cozy getaway in the shadow of Mt Hood!
The host gave us great directions and checkin info via text, making it extremely easy when we arrived, and also responded with good dinner recommendations! Very clean place, nicely decorated, great big screen for unwinding with streaming tv and moves. Terrific proximity to Mt Hood trails and attractions. Overall very easy and nice!

Holiday stay
Overall place was clean and almost as listed. It is not clearly stated that this is a basement apartment under a house. Host did allow us to bring both our dogs as we were trying to escape fireworks. But the biggest thing was all the noise from heavy footsteps upstairs, chairs moving and sound like someone falling off of said chair and hitting ground very loudly all late at night. Mind you this was 4th if July. So we tried to sleep as best we could. Brushed it off to holiday. But loud footsteps started at 6 am the next morning and again on second night. Yes it is beautiful and cozy, but main room needs lamp, very dark and only overhead light to see. And I would not stay again due to all the above our heads noise.

Super start to our northwest pilgrimage.
We found it to be very spacious for 2 people, beautifully decorated with native American motifs. Dawn provided countless little extras, like ample amounts of toiletries; coffee, sugar, and real creamer! Comfy bath robes. Laundry. The super size tv was also great. And the location was ideal for our purpose, a day on the Columbia River gorge and a day exploring Mount Hood.

Stayed at Dawn’s place for 5 nights. Very clean. Super quiet and the property was nestled in the pines. Great location for anyone needing a place close to Mt Hood without having to stay in Govt Camp. Closer to supermarkets, restaurants, golf, and hiking.
