Map & Owner's Profile
Why the Owner Chose Hood River
We chose Stevenson as it is so centrally located in the gorge and yet only 45 minutes to downtown Portland. It has always been our dream to own waterfront property, which is so rare to find on the Columbia River. We enjoy wind surfing, kite surfing, and kayaking right in front of our home! We completed building this dream home in 2009 and we are excited to share it with other water lovers.
The Unique Benefits at this House
We love getting up to watch the sun rise over the Cascade Mtn range and the Columbia River. The river is typically calm early in the morning, with ducks & geese on the water. Equally enjoyable is watching the sun set in the evening. The huge harvest moons reflecting on the water at night are unbelievable! There's no end to activities on the water to take in, from fish jumping to sail boats & Sternwheelers passing by.
Award winning micro-brews! Enjoy a cold, tasty beer & a bite to eat on the outside terrace and enjoy live music many nights.
Play a round of golf while enjoying the views and then have a massage before dinner
Enjoy a soak in the mineral hot springs or one of the many spa treatments. Great restaurant too.

We've had such a great week. You have a really lovely home and this location is stunning! We've had fun visiting and the kids have had a ball exploring the area; swimming, hiking and we've had fun checking out local eateries, etc. Weather has been so nice! We're sad to leave. Thank you so much.

Our family had a "chick hiking trip" ages from 48 to 85 had awesome times using the house as our base. It's just such a beautiful setting!! The house had absolutely everything you could possibly need provided!! Would stay there again! Thank you!!
Owner response:Thanks to Tina for her positive feedback on their stay in our home. We would love to have them come back. They were the perfect guests and took such good care of our home while they were there. We're happy that our home is a good base for the many day trips in the area, and Tina and her family took advantage of that, with trips from the mountains to the Oregon coast.

Just wanted to drop you a note before we leave in the morning. Your home is beautiful and the view has been spectacular. We own a second home in the Bahamas on the beach, which was my dream, and I can see how this was yours. We have had a fabulous time and it was very relaxing. The house is very well equipped. Nice appliances, nice bedding, very clean and the landscaping is beautiful. You have done a very nice job. We hope to come back!

This is one of the most amazing getaways imaginable. The house is large, cozy, and has panoramic views of the water and mountain, which adds to the relaxing atmosphere of the home. We were able to kayak and windsurf directly from the property, just steps from the patio. A perfect retreat home! We were sad to leave and would definitely love to return.

We rented this house three weeks last summer. We chose Stevenson as it is a great base for a Gorge vacation. Everything was as advertised--this place will not disappoint. The home is very clean and high standing, with open space and vaulted cielings, great privacy, and magnificient views of the water and Columbia gorge scenery. Few places in the Gorge are right on the water with private beach, yet pretty much in town. We loved being able to walk to the cafes and breweries for a dinner or lunch out, or just stay at home to enjoy the deck, and outside waterfront living. We windsurfed right out of the house, or drove a few minutes to the Hatchery or Doug's. On hot "nuking" days when we had sailed East, it was so nice to come home to Stevenson and enjoy a cooler evening and quiet winds, with a sip of wine on the patio. We will definitely come back.
