We had a lovely time here, and our pup LOVED getting to sniff and run around the large back yard. It was a great getaway for us, and just a short drive from Portland.

This is a very roomy and comfortable place. Beds were comfy and the bathrooms and kitchen were clean, aside from the dirty dishes in the dishwasher when we arrived. The yard is huge for the dog. Needs a deep cleaning, dog hair and cobwebs in the nooks and crannies around the place. Overall, we really enjoyed it and would stay here again.

Thank you for your review. I’m so glad the house felt roomy and comfortable and that the beds, bathrooms, and kitchen met your needs. I’m sorry you found dirty dishes in the dishwasher and noticed dog hair and cobwebs; I’ll address this with housekeeping and schedule a deeper clean with extra attention to nooks and pet areas. We appreciate the feedback — if there’s anything else that would have made your stay five stars, please message us through the Vrbo app. We hope to host you again.

Quiet, clean, spacious for a small group and the big yard is dog heaven.

Worked well for my weekend of dog competitions. Close in, responsive hosts, and friendly neighborhood.

Quaint getaway

This house was a perfect location for everything we wanted to do in the Mt. Hood/ Columbia River loop. Literally right off the highway, yet felt very secluded. I personally felt that the house needed some TLC, but it was clean and met our expectations.

Nice family nook in woods

Everything was nice. Clean, large yard for dog, nice comfortable chairs, with a good selection of games. They could use a can opener though!

Excellent weekend getaway for the family and pets

We stayed for a long weekend with our infant and two dogs. This location and house were incredible and we will absolutely use this booking again. The yard is fully fenced in and very, very, large so the dogs had plenty of room to play. The house itself is well cleaned and equipped with all the tools/kitchen utensils/devices youd need. The beds were actually some of the most comfortable weve been in. The location is perfect, close to town amenities and a quick drive to Timberline. Overall, highly recommend.

Hi Fadi, We love hearing how much you loved your stay at the Twin Cedars Getaway. The large yard is amazing and it is rare to find a fully fenced yard at Mt Hood, so this is especially nice with dogs and kids. Please come see us during the summer when you can hang out in the yard, play corn hole, croquet or toss a ball for your dog. Betsy and the team at Mt Hood Vacation Rentals

Weddings in woods

Overall the property was beautiful wooded rental. Has an enormous fenced in backyard which was perfect for our two large dogs to roam around in. House is very roomy and comfortable exactly what we’re looking for. Only thing that was a downside was coming back from a outing we saw a random pick up truck in the drive way and fence open.turns out it was landscaping coming to clean but was not notified or asked of any sort of way about the yard work and landscaper was upset we had dogs and rushed him to finish

Nice backyard for the dog

The house has a huge backyard, great for our dog. The lighting of the whole house could be improved significantly. It feels dark, especially with all the big trees surround it, there's barely any sunlight comes in. The house itself is ok.

Very clean

The house was very clean and well supplied. The king bedroom mattress was pretty good but the guest bedroom mattress not so much. The front of the house needs some attention and the lighting in the living room isn’t very good, other than that we enjoyed our stay.

Dog Friendly Mountain Home

This property was exactly what the listing says it is. The home is spacious, comfortable, great location, and well-stocked with everything you might need. The best part for us was the MASSIVE backyard. We had 2 dogs and a 4-year-old, who were thrilled with the space and adventures provided by the yard! Overall, I highly recommend this stay (especially for dog people). The only recommendations I have for the owners are to consider getting a different couch and provide excess blankets, but this is more of a recommendation and not a complaint! We had a great trip thanks to this cabin!

Hi Jaycee We love that the Twin Cedars Getaway has the large fenced backyard for families and guests with dogs, too. They are so hard to find at Mt Hood. We are glad you enjoyed your stay. We will pass along your comments about the sofa. This is a great location in the summer when you want to spend more time outside. Betsy and the team at Mt Hood Vacation Rentals
