The house was big and well appointed, had lots of fun things for our toddler to play with too. Kitchen and bathrooms were clean and stocked and the house info was very clear.
The hot tub was clean and easy to use as well! The only small downside was how we had to manage the pellet stove and multiple wall heating units to keep the house warm, but it wasn’t too bad. We would love to stay here again!

It’s a bit dated inside. The outside was enjoyable. Nice creek in the back of the house. Off a busy road, so lots of road traffic all morning.

The photos of this home are totally inaccurate. The house was disgustingly unclean, furniture is blown out, the deck was unsafe, and the pool was nonexistent. The property manager was open to texting with us while we were at the house and seemed concerned by our grievances. My partner actually STEPPED THROUGH THE DECK! But once we left, all communication stopped. We had discussed them giving our cleaning deposit back to us since we spent FOUR HOURS cleaning and prepping the house to be able to even stay there. But I’ve heard nothing since. I will now be having my credit card company fight the entire bill of the house and will be reporting Vacasa for scamming us. You’re lucky we’re not suing for injuries accrued on the property. It’s an absolute disgrace no one has gotten back to me after our stay. I will never use this site again.

We enjoyed our family time. Most were comfortable. All enjoyed the cabin space. We could not find the living room fan remote, but the box fans helped immensely. The tack strip between the kitchen and the living room carpet needs attention. There are nails that poke bare feet.

I love the scenery in space sleeping arrangements weren't bad. I most definitely would recommend them to get their AC figured out cuz it was hot the AC didn't work or none of us could get it to work,the hot tub didn't get very hot, it takes two cycles in the dryer to get anything dry, no cleaning supplies or garbage bags, no batteries in remotes had to buy some . As beautiful as the location was I personally don't think I would rent it again.

Overall the house is great. Little things like the screen door being jacked up, the hot tub could use a solid cleaning and the corner pillows replaced, better regulated heat are all pretty darn minor. Price wise, location wise and overall the place is amazing. I will say the hot tub was a life saver after we socked it and added water and cranked the temp. After 3 days of riding it was much needed each night. Would defintely stay here again!

The location was perfect, the surrounding forest and stream behind the house was beautiful and relaxing, exactly what we were looking for 😊

Very clean, beautiful location and interior, great kitchen. Beautiful upstairs bedroom. Great, roomy bathrooms.
Electric wall heaters weren't all working. We never got the heater working in the lower bedroom with the queen bed. I tried to ask about it via app messaging but never got the final answer.
The living room has three wall heaters but only the middle one was working. The weather is extra-cool right now so fortunately the wood pellet stove was awesome and a couple space heaters were available.
Some family members complained the mattresses weren't comfortable.
No manual existed for misc. questions like what to do with garbage, etc., so we had to put the bags outside. I couldn't find a garbage can or dumpster.
The supply of paper products (paper towels, toilet paper) was insufficient.
The hot tub looks great but we didn't use it (it's snowy and icy now).

Loved the comfy warm home and wood pellet fire place. The beautiful backyard with a small stream was very nice. But the hot tub could not heat up after the first use. When we first got in it was at 106f and we turned it down to 103f, next day it was stuck at 95f and when we turned the heat up all the way it wouldn’t warm up. Next day it was at 91f and still wouldn’t warm up. Only complaint about the trip. Hot tub fees costed a lot for it not to work properly.

Peaceful little place. Older home w/ some charm. The only thing was one of the bathroom doors needed fixed. We kept forgetting and got locked in. Good thing friends where around. Finally just put a washcloth in the jam. Other than that it was really nice place.

Our family of six stayed for four nights and it was perfect! Plenty of sleeping options, great jacuzzi, perfect setting, river access close by, a great retreat overall! Smelled musty, but not a deal breaker. One bathroom doorknob gave us a hard time, if you bring little kids keep an ear open in case they get locked in. All in all, we would recommend this to others, and we'd stay here again as well.

It was a nice, spacious house but it smelled like an attic. The hot tub was dirty and required a lot of cleaning before entering. The stairs to the fire pit had a lot of debris covering the steps. There was a dirty kleenex between the cushions of the couch otherwise the house was clean. The view from the living room window was amazing. There are a lot of other houses all around so the cabin is not secluded at all.

Place is in a great location, the view out the large picture windows is amazing.
Place was in a great location. Really enjoy the view of stream and mountains out the large living room windows. Place was clean, however walkway and porch needed to be swept. Storm door is broken so it was hard getting things in and out of front door. The furnace covers needed to be cleaned very dirty which then blows out dirty air. Kitchen rug was dirty. Needed to have dish towels not place mats to whip the counters and dishes with. Only left enough cleaning aditive for 2 nights. Space was large enough to spread out with a large dinning table. Couches and chairs are old and need so cleaning.

We were a little disappointed in the cleanliness of the house. Hot tub was dirty with tree debris in it. A neighbor was shooting a large gun while we were in hot tub.

Had a very relaxing getaway with the family and a few friends! Great deck, great hot tub, lots of games and blankets and we particularly enjoyed the relaxing loft space. Very close to a lot of beautiful nature as well. The listing provides an accurate description of the space and I would recommend!

Really enjoyed this house. Though the furniture and carpet are much older and more worn than the photos reveal. Also, from the photos, I expected this to be more secluded than it is. There are neighbors in back and on the sides, not too close, but not as empty as I thought from the listing photos.The back deck and stream in back, and the side deck with the firepit are really nice and the rooms and beds were comfortable. The kitchen is well stocked and the baths are very nice. We really enjoyed our stay and highly recommend the property! The property was in a great location. Hiking trails nearby, Multnomah, Bridal Veil and other falls, as well as orchards within an hour's drive, and whitewater rafting on the Clackamas River 45 minutes away to the south west. The coast is a couple hours drive to the west.

Overall the location was great, the kitchen was well stocked and we enjoyed our time there. However, there are a few items that need to be addressed like the overhead light was out in one of the bedrooms, the corner shower in second bathroom leaked as there is a gap at the bottom of the door, house only had one dishwasher tab and one roll of paper towels, most of the deck chairs had cracks in them and the foliage is overgrown on the steps going down to the creek. Also contacting Vacasa to ask questions about the property and to ask for more dishwashing tabs and paper towels was very difficult and they never ended up delivering them to us before we checked out.

Nice and peaceful getaway! House was nice and clean. We cleaned up the deck and chairs outside from debris but that's expected. The breaker was off for the hot water but an easy fix. We will be using these services in the future.

Wonderful property if you can stand VRBO
We loved this property! Good light, hot tub, nice big kitchen for big meals and lots of seating for our group. Being surrounded by trees was lovely and we were able to watch the clouds float by.
My grievance is with all the fees that were added in during the registration process. It is my fault because I was rushed during the booking process and didn’t pay as much attention as I should have. However, I will never use VRBO or Vacasa again.
Pay attention if you want to book the house: There is a fee for the owner, a fee for VRBO (which is the website I was using), and a fee for Vacasa. There was also a hot tub fee. And cleaning fees and taxes, obviously. Some of the fees were absolutely expected but the 2 nights quickly became double what I was expecting.
Never again.

Super cute and comfy!
This house was adorable right when we got there. The rooms were clean, kitchen was easy to use and the bathrooms were stocked. The neighborhood was quiet and we felt like we were alone even though we had neighbors. A grocery store was only 5-10 minutes away and the mountain 25 minutes. The hot tub was easy to use and had clear, easy instructions. I would definitely book it again!
