About this property
Columbia Tree House - Downtown Hood River with Big View and Fenced Yard
Beautiful Rustic / Modern home just west of the downtown business district of Hood River with unobstructed views of Mt. Adams and the Columbia River. Due to strict regulations, the majority of vacation rentals in Hood are located within the busy business districts - this home is one of few available in a relatively calm, centrally located, residential neighborhood.
The home has vaulted ceilings over the great room / kitchen. The north side is all large windows yielding views of Mt. Adams and the Columbia River from any location in the living / dining area. The master bedroom / loft is vaulted and spacious feeling, as well.
The house was designed to be open and social. Even when cooking in the roomy kitchen, you will be facing your guests / family and the view. There is a fenced and gated yard.
Located in a quiet neighborhood just west of downtown, separated from the noise, traffic and congestion of the busy business district. We are a short, safe walk to two of the best breweries in the Northwest and many restaurants. The grocery, liquor store and pharmacy are ¼ mile further to the west.
*The main floor (Great Room / Kitchen, 2nd Bedroom and Main Bath) is at the same grade (plus three steps) as the driveway / parking area.
*This is the upper two floors of a 3-story house (1st floor is a separate living space).
*A maximum of 6 guests is allowed, but there are beds for only 4.

From the moment we arrived we knew this was a special place to stay. Everything was clean and well stocked. The entire home was beautiful inside and the view...well...spectacular!! We enjoyed the deck overlooking the Columbia River, watching the wind surfers and taking in Mt. Adams. Our host checked in on us by text the day after we arrived to assure we had all we needed and that we had no concerns. He even left a nice gift on the kitchen counter which was such a kind and thoughtful touch. Thank you Brian!We all agreed we definitely will come back on our next trip to Hood River!
We really enjoyed our stay in the Tree House! The view is amazing and the home is spaces. Great location, Easy and quick to get into town for food and shopping. Highly recommend staying in the tree house.
Convenient walk to downtown Hood River. The house is stocked for convenience. We have stayed here multiple times and love this place. The views of the river and Mount Adams are spectacular.
this place is the best. great view, fantastic deck for dinner and breakfast. we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Brian is an excellent host.
thanks for the memories!!
We were in town to make my husband’s dream of trying out wind sports in Hood River into reality and this was the perfect base camp for making that happen. The house is close to just about everything, and the river view is unbeatable.
The Columbia Tree House was located very close, walking distance to downtown Hood River. This VRBO offered an excellent view of the Columbia River. We spent a lot of time just lounging on the back deck enjoying the great weather and the tremendous view of the river. I would stay here again.
Great location, walkable to town and the river. Epic views from inside the house and the balcony. The house was equipped with pretty much everything we needed and all was in good working order. Brian, the owner was very responsive and helpful with local knowledge.
It was just what was needed. The location was perfect for sitting and Reading, eating, and just being in the moments. Thank You Brian. Also bring your binoculars. So much to see on the river
Well equiped kitchen. Comfortable beds. Nice deck with view of columbia river and mt. Adams. Quiet neighborhood with easy walk to downtown and grocery. One improvement would be to add a second fan unit downstairs to the split heat pump system. The lower bedroom can get hot in summer. Also need more comfortable deck chairs. We brought our own.

Needs a little refresh
This place was clean, but worn out. The sofa is so worn it feels like one is sitting on the floor. The outside has zero landscaping and the building is in desperate need of paint. The windows are dirty. For such a great view this place could be spectacular. It needs some work.
Great location for visiting the waterfront and downtown. 10-15 min walk to most places downtown. It's a very comfortable home in a quiet neighborhood. There is a fenced side yard with an area for a dog to do business. The view is amazing.

Perfect Stay
My wife and I recently spent 3 days in the 'Columbia Tree House' and loved it. It's a very well designed home, conveniently located, with great architecture and craftsmanship and awesome views. I've traveled to the Gorge many times and this was our best accommodations yet.
This was a great place for a weekend in Hood River. Convenient location, very clean, cute place and nice river view! Owner was very helpful and responsive. A great choice!
We really enjoyed our stay at the tree house. The view from inside and outside was amazing. The host was in contact with entry information well before check-in time so we weren’t worried. Everything we needed in the kitchen was provided. The bed was very comfortable. Highly recommend this rental for your next visit to Hood River!
