The house was spacious, very clean, location on the river was lovely, appreciated all the electrical outlets, and our hosts Kaila and her husband were outstanding. They responded promptly and helpfully to our questions and requests, both pre-visit and during. We had a minor issue and not only did they patiently explain how the fixture worked, their housekeeper came over to double check that it wasn’t a bigger issue. All interactions were warm, gracious, and respectful. Be prepared though — there was no Saran wrap or storage containers for food. We donated ours, but I don't think those items are regularly stocked. I would also agree with what others have said, however. The house is in need of some TLC. To be fair, it looks like they’re making improvements a little at a time. Overall, we had a great visit and would definitely go back.

Nice very quiet neighborhood, even though it sits just off the highway. House is an older home but was very clean. Good response time to our inquiries. Bedrooms and bathrooms were good size. It was nice to have two living areas. If you're planning on cooking and saving leftovers you'll need your own saran wrap, plastic bags or food containers. Also briquettes are not provided for the BBQ. The access to the river is a short walk away. No access directly from the house. It was a short drive to activities in the Mt Hood area.

Much more than expected!
This was hands down the best rental we’ve booked in years! The house is huge, well-stocked, clean, and comfortable. Our family of 9 had plenty of room to spread out and enjoyed the games in the garage! The hot tub and deck area was perfect on hot summer nights, and the jacuzzi tub bathroom was a nice surprise! We wil definitely book again.

Great home with lots of room for everyone!
This was a great little house with awesome views. There was a nice little walking/biking path just down the road that follow the river and great views. The outdoor seating could be updated. A couple of chairs were broke and it's harder for older people to sit in the low chairs. We had family nearby who brought us camping chairs so it was more comfortable to sit outside. Other than that great spot and beds were comfortable.

Not as advertised
Nice view of the river, wouldn't hurt to use the broom or leaf blower on walkways. Maybe wipe down the dust on hot tub cover along with fixing the doors so they don't fall on people while using the hot tub, kitchen was decent except both ovens were greasy and burnt food on the bottom of both ovens , garage was good size but needs a little appeal the moldy walls was a nice touch scared the kids they didn't want to use it... the Foosball table and ping pong table was one of the selling points is why we rented in the first place.. didn't mind the extra guest but I don't think the mouse paid. .all and all was decent place ...a little TLC can go along way ... If you're planning on cooking your own dinner you might want to bring your own cookware plenty of utensils but lacking cookware...don't mind the missing grass Trey in the bottom of the refrigerator the veggie trays hold things just fine...one last thing it's 30 yards from hwy 26.. I'm sure I missed a few things but I think we left it cleaner than when we found it..

Spacious!
When I arrived I was surprised how big it was. There were 5 of us but the house is quite large and would easily accommodate 9 people. Everything was clean and uncluttered, A few little quirks due to age of the home but no issues. We cooked all meals at home and the kitchen has most standard supplies. We knew to bring any special pans needed with us. It was nice to have a Keurig and complimentary coffee! The location is good with a grocery store just a couple miles down the road. The house is next to the highway but I didn't notice any road noise when inside. The front and backyards were also nice and big. We enjoyed our stay and would stay again.
My family & I loved this house. We had the best most relaxing time. Hot tub overlooking the river was beautiful. Everything was really clean & very comfortable. I would hands down love to stay here again.
