What a wonderful escape from the world. It's quiet and secluded, but close to a store, hiking and everything else you need. The house has everything you need and there's a short, but beautiful walk down to the stream. The only recommendation I would make is if you can, bring a folding table to enjoy eating outside. There's no patio furniture and you're going to want to enjoy the chirping birds, mountain air, incredible view and soft sound of running water in this distance.
Everything was lovely. The house sat in a very quiet area with hiking trails right behind it. Deer cam almost every night. Bed was comfortable. The only thing I'd say is provide more towels and laundry detergent/ dryer sheets for guest. There was a note they provide only as many as guest count but not really convenient for some. Would definitely stay again
We loved our stay. The house was roomy and comfortable. The view from the property wad stunning. The river is an easy walk through the woods. If you are looking for a peaceful retreat, this is it. I will say, the house did smell of dog. This is a pet friendly home so I suppose that comes with the territory. There was a large dog bed in the master bedroom, which we were able to put away , and lit some candles which helped with the smell. All in all, I would recommend this property.
This house is beautiful and the views are amazing! The house can use a little furniture upgrade as the couches are starting the rip and they don’t smell the best. When we showed up the heat in the house was turned down to 43 degrees and with it snowing outside it took until 9pm to get to 63, when we woke up it was back down to 60 degrees. Thankfully the house had plenty of plug in heaters that we turned on and finally got the house up to 68 by that evening.
Our second time at this property and we love staying here. The house has everything we need for our family including a great hiking trail behind the property. We will definitely be back.
Everything was wonderful! What a lovely home. The house was clean, cozy, and perfect for our stay. We loved the outdoor fireplace and hot tub. The kitchen was well-equipped to cook meals. Our toddler loved the books and upstairs play space. We had an amazing time.
We had a beautiful time at this home that has so much to offer including an idyllic meadow and trail by the river, comfortable furniture, well equipped kitchen, and ping-pong table.
Great location! Super close to Mount Hood for snow sports, hiking, etc.

Beautiful home!
This property was a slice of heaven during the Thanksgiving holiday. Everything ran smoothly and my family had the best time—we will definitely return at a later date!
We had an amazing stay at Big Buck Lodge!
The home and location was ideal for our family.. the home was welcoming and cozy; the property was serene and the ease of location to the many of Mt Hoods trails, restaurants, shopping, etc!
We hope to return to Big Buck Lodge during the winter months!
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.
