***** COVID Cleaning Notice *****
We have a long-standing commitment to rigorous cleaning procedures. We utilize paperless check-in and check-out, reduced in-room furnishings/high-touch items, sanitizing laundry protocols, and disinfectant cleaning of all surfaces.

If you don’t find our place sparkling clean, clutter free, and well maintained – we promise to make it right.
***** PLANNING TIP *****
If you are planning out more than a year (brides? grooms? parents?) go to the WEB VERSION of AirBnb -- the app doesn`t go as far out!
****************************************************
Hawks Perch is in the downtown core of Hood River and walking distance from shopping, dining, cafes and more. We are up above Oak Street at 7th. Entry is from behind the unit, off State Street. Being up on the hillside gives you great views of the Columbia River and especially the Event Site, Sandbar and White Salmon Bridge - where kiteboarding, windsurfing, sailing and stand up paddling prevail.

Sleep is important. You’ll find a solid night’s rest on any of our five beds with thick memory foam mattresses and high thread count 100% cotton sheets. Three full bathrooms come fully stocked with Pharmacopia shampoo, conditioner, and shower gel as well as plush 100% cotton towels.

What’s Where?
Top Flight – Live large in our comfortable living room, dining room, full bath, upper deck with BBQ, and a bedroom that can be configured as one king, or two twin beds, your choice.
2nd Floor – here’s where you enter. On this level you will find the master suite with king bed, a private bathroom, and private outdoor deck. Also, on this level is our billiards room, laundry room, and a bit of storage.
First Flight - two more bedrooms with queen-size beds, and the third full bath that rounds out the accommodations.

Need extra room? We chose to provide additional bed options by getting two of the most comfortable twin airbeds we could find. Put these anywhere that makes sense to you – even under the stars on a nice night. The living room couch isn’t too bad either!

Internet:
Need high speed Internet? Not a problem. Hi-Speed Internet and Mesh WiFi is available and free to use by any of our guests. Login info will be provided in your welcome guide.

Billiards Room:
Feeling like a night in, or entertaining for the evening? Then you’ll enjoy our billiards room with room to play and watch. Connect your smart phone to our Bluetooth Bose speaker or put the big game on the TV to keep the entertainment flowing while trying not to scratch your final shot.

Kitchen and Dining:
You`ll find gourmet Bertazzoni appliances and a full kitchen suite of utensils and cooking accessories will have you cooking your favorite dishes with ease. More of an outdoor type? Smoke your fresh salmon or grill veggies and steaks on the deck`s Country Smokers Pellet Grill. Enjoy use of spices, seasonings, and condiments, as well as your favorite tea or cup of joe – we support Keurig, ground, and whole bean preferences.

TV and Entertainment:
Want to catch a game or watch some movies? We`ve got you covered with our 55” 4k TV. Also, enjoy all your favorite channels, shows and content with YouTube TV included, and Netflix, HBO and several other content providers ready for your own personal log-in.

We are licensed with the City of Hood River with License Number 716.

Have a question? We`re easy to get in touch with. Thanks for visiting Hawks Perch and we await your first, or next, visit.

We stayed at Hawks Perch for 6 nights. Check in was easy, the unit was clean and well stocked. We easily walked to several restaurants and shops, and truly enjoyed the view of wind surfers on the River. We had an excellent stay.

Hawks Perch was absolutely perfect for our girls getaway! The place was super clean, well stocked, decorated really nice, gorgeous views and the walk ability was fantastic! Communication with James was absolutely great - even texted me saying if we wanted to check in early the cleaners were done and could check in whenever and he even followed up afterwards. I definitely would stay here again and definitely would recommend this place!

Perfect Location and Setting for a Group

Hawks Perch is the perfect location in Hood River- it's located on the main street with all the shops and restaurants. The fire pit was perfect and it was extremely well stocked with everything we needed. There were 9 of us and we felt it had plenty of space. Super clean, easy check-in and the host was very easy to communicate with. All in all a perfect weekend!

The owner was very communicative and accommodating. The space was perfect for my two younger children; 2 and 4. The area surrounding the “hawks perch” was great for finding local coffee, food, and had access to three playgrounds (walking distance). We’ll certainly be back.

Great place to visit

We had a three day stay at this wonderful home. The home has a beautiful view of the Columbia River…very peaceful and relaxing. The cleaning ladies did an excellent job leaving the home spotless for us. The owners contacted us several times to insure that our stay was without any problems. It is clear that the owners want their guests to enjoy their stay and had the home very well furnished. We would highly recommend this rental for anyone wanting a relaxing time in Hood River.

Amazing property for bridal party!

This vrbo was amazing for us and our bridal party! We used it as the girls getting ready spot and the light coming into the living room/dining room was perfect for the makeup artists. All the girls could hang out and make breakfast together. And the decorations were spot on! We had to fight the boy for this vrbo because it had an awesome pool table area as well. Would definitely stay in this property again if returning ti hood river!

Weekend stay

We are a three generation family and booked the property for grandpa’s birthday in mid December. First time in Hood River and we loved everything about the property. Beautiful view of the Columbia and Main Street Christmas lights from the balcony. Wonderful to have coffee and tea available for a morning cup. The suggestion for the waterfall hike was much appreciated. It was a great hike for all three generations of us. We definitely recommend this property.
