Best Vacation Rental We've stayed at

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Probably the best vacation rental we've stayed at so far. The view is unbeatable. Our family spent a lot of time admiring the mountain and forest in the back yard. We also enjoyed the ping pong table and shuffle board in the garage. We would love to stay here again if we're back in the area!

wonderful place, outstanding location

Our family and dog enjoyed a nice winter weekend at this gorgeous and comfortable property. The sandy river is essentially in the backyard and there is a beautiful trail running along the river that is accessible from the back yard. We hope to come back soon.

Big Buck and All Seasons Vacation Rentals are Wonderful

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was our second year with All Seasons Vacation Rentals. We were upgraded to the Big Buck Lodge and loved it. A lovely, large home with everything and more you need. Great for those with a dog and/or children. Very well maintained and appointed. Customer service by All Seasons again was top notch. Many restaurants and a Thriftway closeby.

Don't Go Here - Save it for us :)

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We loved this house and we loved our time with our family here. The space was perfect where we could spread out just a bit, but also be together a lot. It felt very isolated and private, but also was just a little drive back to the store if need be. The views of the hills from the house are stunning all throughout the day. The access to the trails and river was great. We had deer out the window and could hear owls hooting from the hot tub. Check in was very easy and the property management was friendly and helpful. Perfect size for 7-8 people. I didn't notice anything that wasn't clean when arriving and kitchen was well appointed. The outdoor fireplace is so much better than a firepit because the smoke isn't chasing you around the circle the whole time - and there was plenty of wood. The only issues we had was the door of the bonus fridge in the garage was wonky and we kinda were hoping for a dvd player for some of the movies that were provided - very small issues in light of how much much we enjoyed this house! Would definitely stay here again!!

My wife and I had an incredible time at the Big Buck Lodge. The house is beautiful and the property it's on is gorgeous. The house was clean and stocked with most of the essentials. Being close to the Sandy river with pretty trails through the forest made the spot even better than we could have imagined. We would absolutely stay here again in a heartbeat. While I'm giving the house and our stay a five star review, here are the only things we didn’t like: - There was no foil, but there was parchment paper? - There was no olive oil, spray-oil, butter, or other common cooking staples - The plastic wrap was so cheap it melted in the microwave (possibly due to the issue I mention below) - The plates are cheap and are thick ceramic that heat to extreme temperatures in the microwave while your food remains luke-warm - The pans were small and in awful shape, and the knives were dull - There was no clear instruction for how to properly use the dishwasher or washing mashine, but the checkout instructions ask you to load and run both - The ping pong table needs to be replaced - Overall the house-specfic details and instructions were lacking in the guest book If we come back again, we'd bring more of our own essentials to have an absolutely perfect stay.

The place was beautiful and we would definitely stay there again. Only things keeping it from being 100% perfect were: the microwave doesn't work, the dryer is dying and extremely loud, all of the hand-soaps were empty with no refill soap available, the coffee maker had no filters that fit, there was no laundry soap and the soap for the dishwasher they left a note saying do not use, and there was no outdoor seating to enjoy the patio and view. I think all of those things were the responsibility of the rental facility and not the owners. When we reached out, they responded promptly and tried to help but misunderstood the needs of the house. All in all, it was still a spectacular place to stay, very clean, and we had a fabulous time! My family and I would like to thank the owners for sharing their home with us and for the memorable weekend!

Perfect Mountain House

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our family absolutely loved our stay here. The house itself is amazing and well stocked. We loved the views of the mountains through the big windows off the back of the house. And great outdoor spaces with a hot tub and outdoor fireplace overlooking a beautiful meadow with wildflowers and the sounds of a rushing river about 100 yards away. The location is perfect, feels very secluded but only about 5 minutes away from the small town and a few restaurants, etc. Also close to some great hiking and the drive further up Lolo pass road has amazing views. We can’t recommend this place highly enough!

No question 5 STARS

We had the BEST time! We had age ranges from 45 to 5 years old and everybody loved every second. The kitchen was fully equipped for breakfast lunch and dinner. Oh wait there’s also an awesome covered outdoor fire place and a hot tub plus acres of exploring. We will be back 100% thank you!

Amazing Mountain Getaway!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a great time. Went for a relaxing mountain getaway and this place delivered! The views of the wildflowers and foothills out the living room windows are wonderful. The house was clean and well stocked. You are close enough to restaurants and a store but far enough away to really feel like you are in the forest. Our dogs loved walking the trail and going down to the river. We would definitely stay again. Also, the management was fantastic.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The property is pure perfection (especially if you aren't worried about sending and receiving calls, or watching non-stop television - this is a little weak, but due in no part to the amazing property... it's purely location). We contemplated how we could stay forever. The views and silence are peaceful and breath taking. The crew at the rental agency was fantastic.

Felt the Magic!

The home, property, and environs exceeded expectations. We met up from across the country for a mini-family reunion, and the stay checked every box we’d anticipated and some unexpected, magical ones as well. There’s nothing like witnessing spring unfolding in the Mt. Hood area, and this place helped us make lasting memories close the heart of each generation present. Thank you for the thoughtful details throughout and for letting us share this beautiful place!
