I visited Cascade Locks for the first time for a couple days. I was surprised at the immense beauty of the town and surrounding area. I had reservations at a resort in Yachats but cancelled and decided to extend my stay here in Cascade Locks. The front desk and all employees were very welcoming and friendly and made me feel at home. Can’t wait to come back

The property is beautiful and the location was amazing. The hotel is super clean and the staff were really friendly. The complimentary breakfast you get at the restaurant is one of the best breakfast I’ve had, you get about 6 options and the food is fresh. The location is perfect if you’ll lab on hiking the gorge.

The staff was super friendly and helpful. The rooms are clean and the riverside view is really nice to have. It is a really tiny town so keep in mind nothing is open 24/7 and nearly everything closes pretty early, at least in winter and early spring so bring your own food options if you need a midnight meal sort of thing. The restraunt for their free breakfast was only open from 7am to 3 pm so only good for breakfast and lunch and not dinner. Breakfast was included in the room fee and theres a good menu selection and a pretty view.

The property has a great view of the Bridge of the Gods. There is a nice gym on site and a great pool and hot tub that our family really enjoyed. The hotel is right next door to a great restaurant that offers breakfast and lunch. Not far down the road is multiple family friendly pubs that offer great food choices also for lunch and dinner. There is easy access to some small groceries in town. The only potential “downsides” are that it backs up to a train track between the hotel and the river. Excess noise was never honestly an issue during our stay. Overall a nice gem of a hotel at a fair price point, and I would absolutely stay again.
