"Absolutely stunning location right on the river! We had an amazing time." – Jade Wake up to the soothing sounds of the roaring river and sip your morning coffee in a cozy rocking chair on the covered 2nd-floor balcony, watching the sunrise paint the water in golden hues. Spend your day exploring Mt. Hood’s hiking trails, skiing slopes, or fishing spots—or simply unwind at home. Rejuvenate in the glass-front barrel sauna, soaking in stunning river views, or relax in the 6-person hot tub, nestled amidst trees with the river’s melody as your backdrop. For endless fun, dive into the game room, where air hockey, a poker table, and a 75” theatre TV with electronic games, puzzles, and Karaoke keep guests of all ages entertained. Guests rave about these “fantastic amenities,” calling them “a blast” for kids and adults alike. "The hot tub and sauna next to the river was quite amazing! The kids loved the electronic games and air hockey." – Stephanie Inside, exposed beams, large windows, and vaulted ceilings flood the space with natural light, creating a charming, stylish, and inviting atmosphere.

Open a window to drift off to the river’s soothing sounds—a “magical” touch guests adore. The property’s spacious, super roomy layout accommodates groups, from families with kids and pets to couples on honeymoons, with “great open space” for indoor and outdoor meals, games, and relaxation. "Magical & peaceful—perfect for a family getaway. We’ll be back!" – Alex Kelly’s exceptional hospitality shines through, with guests calling the host “great,” “very responsive,” and “thoughtful,” leaving extras like sleds for snow adventures, holiday touches, and disposable bakeware for Thanksgiving. This serene retreat, just a short drive from town for groceries, blends seclusion with accessibility, making it “perfect for a quick getaway” or “yearly retreat.” Visitors love its “modern, well-stocked, inviting home” feel, its “stunning location right on the river,” and the “peaceful, relaxing ambiance” that feels like “above our expectations.” "Kelly was an excellent host—very thoughtful and accommodating.

A better stay than being at government camp. Because Its location was GREAT for skiing AND recreating intown with lazer tag arcade,bowling and lots of great restaurants. The home was well furnished everywhere. The best kitchen ever! With plenty pf highend pans, bakeware to make heavenly meals. They had a fun electronic game table that we all played together and air hockey tabel too. Lots of space to spread out. I found the river trail that goes forever, great for the dogs. We were here for winter skiing but this would be a wonderful summer stay. Its the best home on the river , views , unobstructed views it was definitely a fun stay. And on top of it . THEY LEFT FLOWERS! Ive never seen that before and i loved it. I smiled every time I saw them. Thanks Kelly for our great stay. ##### Tami O.
