Jeffrey, thank you for staying with us in Rhododendron and sharing your positive feedback. We are happy to hear you enjoyed your visit and look forward to welcoming you back!
Cute cabin with a beautiful view of the river! Easy drive to Mt. Hood Skibowl. Hot tub was really nice too after a day in the snow. Kitchen was well-appointed, and everything was clean. Overall positive experience! The top room is pretty tight. Our kids thought it was cool but if you’re an adult the room is really short, like an attic. And the stairs up to that room are pretty narrow and steep. I probably didn’t look at the pictures closely enough, but fyi. We still enjoyed our stay immensely!

Thanks so much for sharing your experience! We’re really glad you enjoyed the river views, easy access to Mt. Hood Skibowl, and especially soaking in the hot tub after a snowy day, that’s what mountain stays are all about.
We are so happy you found our bonus space. It’s definitely a cozy, cabin-style space that kids tend to love, and your note is helpful for setting expectations for future guests. We’re happy to hear it didn’t take away from the overall experience and that you still had a great time.
We’d love to welcome you back for another mountain getaway anytime! :evergreen_tree::snowflake:
Absolutely amazing! It was the perfect place for to have a little rest and retreat after a crazy busy summer. We had so much fun spending the day exploring the river then relaxing in the hot tub under the stars. My only regret is not booking a longer stay!

Fantastic place and wonderful host-administration. The place is beautiful and well-equipped. The location is prime, with a private view of the river and close to Mt. Hood. The host (Cascadia Getaways) was incredible in giving directions, suggestions, and answering questions. Strongly recommended.

Thank you, Mariela for staying with us in Rhododendron. We hope you enjoyed your getaway, and we look forward to hosting you again soon!
The view was gorgeous, and the house had everything we needed. You don’t have to drive far to hike some truly fabulous Oregon forests. The only drawbacks were that there is no dishwasher, no disposal, and the water tasted and smelled like sulfur. It was pretty intense. However, we tried to stay out in the gorgeous forests more than the house so it was a perfect homebase. We really appreciate the proximity to Mount Hood and the giant TVs for when our leg muscles wanted to give out. Thanks for a lovely stay!

Thanks so much for the kind words! We’re glad you soaked up the views, loved the forest hikes, and gave your legs a break with those giant TVs :smile:
Totally hear you on the water — being up on Mt. Hood means we get that wild, volcanic mineral flavor (yep, that sulfur smell is nature doing its thing). It’s safe and all part of the off-the-grid charm, but we get it’s not for everyone.
No dishwasher or disposal is part of the simple mountain cabin vibe — but we’ll keep working to make sure our listings set the right expectations.
All in all, sounds like you made the most of it — and we’d love to host you again anytime!"
Customer service was great! We did have some issues with the wood burning stove being cracked, but the hosts do the best they could to accommodate. The only other thing I will mention is, while the do may it very clear in the listing that this is one of a cluster of 3 cabins together, that they’re “still very private” …I would say more like moderately private if you’re next to nice people. Our neighbors kitchen window faced directly toward our hot tub, which did not feel ver private AT ALL. They very courteously closed their blinds, which was definitely appreciated, though not something we thought could be a situation in the first place. Last thing to be aware of is that it was impossible for us to find it when we got there (in the daylight) because we lost service the second we turned of 26, and every time we left and came back (definitely worse in the dark) it was the same issue. Maybe it’s just because we have AT&T, IDK, but just something to be aware of. Otherwise, the setting is idyllic an all the furniture is very comfortable — my husband wanted me to make honorable mention that out of all the rentals we’ve stayed at over the years, this has been his favorite bed (the King) and living room couch, which is high praise coming from him!

Thank you for the thoughtful review! We’re glad to hear our team was able to assist during your stay and that you enjoyed the comfortable furniture — especially the king bed and living room couch. High praise indeed!
We appreciate your understanding regarding the wood stove and are happy we could work with you on that during your visit. Thank you as well for sharing your perspective on the cabin layout and privacy. As noted in the listing, the cabins are part of a small cluster, but we understand that guest experiences can vary depending on neighboring guests.
Your note about cell service and finding the property is also helpful — the mountain area can have limited coverage depending on the carrier, and we’ll keep this in mind as we continue improving our arrival information for guests.
We’re so glad you still enjoyed the peaceful setting and your time at the cabin, and we’d love to host you again for another Cascadia Getaway.

Awesome escape
Very beautiful location and cabin, some difficulty with access to the cabin but great communication with the owner resolved the issue. Would highly recommend this as an excellent retreat 😊
Our small family of 3 stayed here as a landing spot for a few days skiing at Mt. Hood. We really enjoyed the cabin - it is a simple cabin but was clean and tastefully decorated/maintained. Beds and supplies were fine - as expected for a rental that has regular visitors. Extra blankets were great as it was cold at night (and we don't like to sleep with the heat going). We cooked breakfasts and dinners to our liking and streamed movies in the evening from our Apple devices. We really enjoyed the hot tub (they supplied extra towels for the hot tub!) and the view of the ZigZag river from both the house and hottub. There's a hiking trail nearby that we explored during a brief stop in the rain, too.Perfect cabin getaway.

Thank you, Marianne for staying with us in Rhododendron. We hope you enjoyed your getaway, and we look forward to hosting you again soon!
The property is nice but don’t plan on being able to cook. They are missing basics like a spatula. And there is no dishwasher which is no big deal but they don’t even have a drying rack. In hindsight I was penny wise and pound foolish renting this cabin. Should have spent more. But the owners are definitely penny wise, pound foolish. Furniture is cheap and uncomfortable. I wouldn’t stay here again and kitchen isn’t stocked properly.
The property managers were amazing. Definitely would rent from them again!
