We rented this house for a get together. It is in a great location- a couple blocks from the middle of Government Camp. For whatever reason, the VRBO map shows it miles from town in the middle of the forest. They charge multiple miscellaneous fees that weren’t explained until after the booking process They charge $30 each for a booking fee, accidental damage, and trash removal. The trash removal fee seemed particularly excessive given that we were staying two nights. After booking, you are instructed to download an app. The app theoretically has check in instructions but the link never worked. I ended up calling to get the door code. We arrived at 4pm and found the cleaners still working. They were very nice and apologized repeatedly. It’s a large house and the two people cleaning it were clearly doing the best they could to get it done in time. The overall cleanliness is as fair. It seems like it needs a deep clean- things like dead flies on the window sills and fireplace mantle, old cans of stain on the deck, fireplace ashes dumped off the side of the deck all need to be addressed. As another reviewer mentioned, the photos show a much newer, cleaner house. There are multiple maintenance issues inside including: the towel rack missing from the walk( brackets still mounted) and 3 of 4 burned out light bulbs in one of the master bedrooms, loose deck railings, one smoke detector missing it’s battery, numerous stains in the carpet, a toilet missing part of its flush button. The listing shows photos of nice deck furniture. It was absent from the property. We were told it was in a warehouse in Portland. The management said they’d try to get us something but no deck furniture ever arrived. Overall, a disappointment stay particularly given the high price charged for this property.

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 went to the mountain house for a weekend with two families of 5. We had more than enough room, one bedroom went unused. This house was cozy and stocked. We had fires, and walked to the trailhead to snowshoe and sled. The entry way benches gave us a nice large area to get our snow gear on and office. The table was huge so we played games and had big dinners together. Our only complaint about the house was the lighting. Lots of mood lighting but hard to see if you wanted to read rules to a game, see what is in your bag, or read a book, our middle aged eyes struggled to see, a few bulbs were out above the table. At the same time the lighting did create a cozy atmosphere. Overall this was a great stay and the host was easy to reach and very nice and accommodating. I was worried about having to pick up the key in Welches but the property management was really helpful and made it work with our skiing schedule and we got to check in a little early. We really loved our stay here and would love to be back!

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This home looks very charming online and it is. It is also positioned as luxury accommodations though which it is not. Sitting directly in the heart of government camp, the mule deer is positioned perfectly as a great base camp for all your Mt Hood adventures. Beware though, the photos are of a much newer and cleaner cabin than the mule deer is today. I was quite astonished to find most faucets leaking and falling apart, the railing around the deck is falling apart in multiple places and very unsafe, a door to one of the main entry doors fell off while we were there, the entire downstairs smells of mold, and the paper products in the house must have been purchased at the dollar store. Truly the worst part was simply how dirty the place is. One bed had sheets that smelt of someone else’s BO, cob webs everywhere, walls are dirty, base boards seem to not have been cleaned in over an year, the washer smells of mold, and all of this in the middle of a pandemic. It simply did not feel safe. This is the most expensive Rental property in government camp (we paid $1000 a night) and is truly not worth it. The quality of this home would have met my expectations at $300 a night price point. The cleanliness is completely inexcusable at any rate. Really quite disappointing for a property that could be so great.

This place was perfect for our group of 11. It says 16 but that would be very tight. The only reason I gave it 4 stars is that the check in process is inconvenient. You have to drive to a location that is about 10 minutes away to pick up a numeric code that could be emailed.

The house was so great! It is much larger than expected. Perfect for an offsite and had enough space on the dining room table for a meeting. A few suggestions would be to add screens on the front doors and a TV or access to the projector in the living room.

We had a wonderful time at this cabin and plan to visit again.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We have a few things we’d like to mention about our stay at the Mule Deer Cabin. This is our 2nd year reserving this location.

1. We’d like to mention that 2 of the bedrooms on the basement floor have beds with huge dips in them.

2. The oven was not cleaned and had an immense amount of oil splattered all over it. The pans are in need of replacement as well. We are a family that loves to cook and make somewhat gourmet meals. It was though not being able to have the right cooking items furnished here to pan-sear steak and fish.

3. The outside grill - I had checked with your office that it was in proper working order prior to our arrival- was not receiving propane enough to light.

Incredibly clean beautiful home near everything in town. Easily going to stay here again!

The only one issue was one upstairs bathroom wasn't working and we weren't notified until we arrived. Hopefully they continue to maintain such a beautiful property because we love staying there. It's an absolutely beautiful home.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This beautiful home was perfect for the four families that came up for a weekend at the mountain. There were plenty of comfortable beds with nice linens and comforters. Lots of new bathrooms. The kitchen was brand new and had plenty of space and supplies. Of course the best part was the great room-- it is such a big space that there is room for 3-4 groups of kids/adults to be doing their own things and still have plenty of room. The fireplace was well stocked. Also, the rental company was very friendly and came over right away to fix the (slow) wifi, and some other minor issues. Everyone had a great time. highly recommend it!

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: A group of 14 of us visiting the area for a friend's wedding at Timberline Lodge stayed at the house in late August 2015. The house is beautiful and we loved being there. The house is well-equipped, particularly the kitchen, and was immaculately clean when we arrived. The beds were comfortable with great linens and blankets, and we slept well. The dual fireplace (indoor/outdoor) in the living room was great on a colder night, and the open living room / dining room / kitchen was a perfect space for us to all visit with each other at the same time. The decks in front and back were so great - in front there are large areas to sit and in back there's a river that was beautiful to listen to.

The location of the house is perfect; it's easily walkable (2-3 minutes) to the center of Government Camp with a great general store, a couple coffeehouses, and some restaurants, and it was right where the shuttle to the wedding left from. It was also an easy and quick drive to Timberline Lodge, and about 20 minutes from a great 4 mile hike at Tamanawas Falls (beautiful waterfall). It was easy for us to find the rental just using the address (no latitude / longitude coordinates required, although some periods of the drive are without cell phone service to program your route in advance while you have service). Communication with All Seasons Vacation Rentals was very good, and they accommodated our late arrival.

The only cons were (1) the wifi, which was so slow that it was unusable (and you'll feel it as most cell phone service is nonexistent) and (2) the hot water, which could not keep up with 14 of us getting ready for the wedding at the same time (and none of us are hot water hogs). I imagine the wifi speeds are a factor of the remote location, so perhaps not much can be done, but surely the hot water can be fixed. Was a bummer to be showering in cold water on a 49 degree day, and there were only 14 of us in a house that's advertised for up to 20.

The home was perfect for our family. The extra large dining table allowed for all of us to gather around the table eating, playing games and catching up with one another. The home was clean and modern looking with plenty of space for all of us. The creek running in the back was a delight to hear at night and fun to explore. The location of the home was great because of the nearby lakes and other outdoor amenities. This was one of our best vacations ever. Hopefully we can come back!!
