Great Option in a Small Town

The house was a great spot for us. There aren't many options in Bingen/White Salmon and this spot was perfect for getting around to see family in those towns without having to drive far. The house is warm and comfortable and had most everything we needed for a few days.

We enjoyed our time there. Plenty of room to park our boat. The house was the same as in the pictures. There was no AC but there was lots of fans in the house and a cooler (?) in the living room. It was still too hot for me though & I'm always cold. The owner was very courteous and responded to all my messages. She was even willing to let us have a late checkout so we could fish one more day!

Great place!

Denise and the house was awesome, very well kept and equipped with everything you need! The place is located just minutes from the gorge event site making access to kiteboarding super easy. The town of white salmon is just minutes away as well for early morning breakfast and coffee. Would highly recommend this place, we will be back!!

Cute bungalow, lovely deck

The place was well appointed and matched the listing. Denise was a gracious host and met us at check-in. Bingen and White Salmon were great on their own with easy access to Hood River and all that had to offer. It was a great place for a vacation close to home.

Good little house!

1950’s cozy house with many updates. Everything available and working as advertised. We did not cook here. We walked to many nearby restaurants in town, particularly the Ayutlense Mexican restaurant with jumbo margs! Good brunch at Carmen’s too. Nice deck with beautiful lanscaping. We were too early for the figs and apples. Easy in and out with lots of parking and no noisy neighbors. Easy access to Hood and both sides of the gorge. Definite return if we are in area again!

Cute cabin in a great location

We stayed here for a few days and it was a great little spot on the gorge. We’re thankful for the a/c as it helped us survive the heat wave! We loved that it was so close to the Society Hotel and could visit the spa there. Only downside is the train that whistles multiple times a night, bring earplugs or keep the windows closed.

Great location at a good value

Location was prefect and I preferred the laidback towns of White Salmon/Bingen over staying in Hood River. Older home, but clean and charming. Great backyard for unwinding with a glass of wine after a full packed day. Make sure you hit up Denise for activities, restaurant ideas, and how to save on the toll bidge. Great Host!

Quaint little home

We had a wonderful stay in this little two bedroom home. The backyard is perfect to sit out with a nice glass of wine. There is some pretty cool lantern lighting which adds to the ambiance in the evening. The location is a close walking distance to downtown for restaurants and beers. We met our host Denise and loved her! She even brought us some fapples, figs and an award winning homemade Apple Sauce she made! So delicious! Loved our stay and would stay here again.

Great alternative to staying in Hood River

Everything was very well taken care of and the house and backyard were all great and as advertised. Denise was an outstanding host and was very communicative. She even let my brother borrow a windsurf sail when we mentioned he didn’t bring one small enough for all the wind! The location is very convenient as well. It’s only a couple minutes from anything you could need and barely ten minutes from the Event Site on the OR side and the Hatchery on the WA side (for those visiting to chase wind). All in all, it was a great alternative to staying in Hood River itself!

Great location and enjoyable vacation home!

Stayed a week and loved this cozy, nicely furnished and well cared for home. Denise is a wonderful host (she lives in the downstairs unit) and helped suggest things to do and places to eat. The house is just a short walk to the Main Street of Bingen. White Salmon is right up the hill. Loved the deck and the sound of the trains. Very nice upgraded and well stocked kitchen. Originally from Washington State so it was really nice to be in such a central location that made it easy to explore both sides of the Columbia Gorge...Hood River and Mt. Adams areas.

Lovely Setting! Nice large deck!

Thank you for the use of your lovely vacation home. I enjoyed the comfort, privacy and especially the large deck! Lovely decor and the furnishings were very new and comfortable. Such a cute kitchen with the eat-in dining nook. The kitchen was well stocked and there are lots of fluffy towels in the bathroom. You can park and go through the kitchen door without any stairs which made it easy for my elderly parents to come by for lunch. It is an easy walk to downtown Bingen (a slight uphill walk back). Very close to some wonderful restaurants in Bingen, White Salmon, and Hood River. The description and pictures are exact. The outdoor deck was like a bonus room. Loved It!

Needs work,not a lot, but some major issues need attention. Communication lacking.

We where greeted with a clean,friendly cottage well prepared. At 1am a member of our party was stunned to find a Canadian couple staring through the lounge window! A discussion followed in which we learned that the downstairs bedroom which has internal access to the main cottage was occupied by this group for the duration of our stay.They had been advised of our presence ,we had not! which begs the point as to why at 1am they would wish to peer through the window which involves climbing onto the balcony. The bathroom door and shower door are out of alignment which means it isn"t possible to quietly close or open either. My wife awoke from a nap on the couch to find herself covered in ants, as was the kitchen bench and other parts of the cottage. Top marks for the response of the owner in taking our reservation and the welcoming touches. But we should have been informed of the fact that we were expected to share the property. The continual train whistle blasts throughout the night 5/8 blasts at each crossing finished any chance of a restful night but that is not under the owners control.

Great Garden Getaway in Gorgeous Hood River

Denise's property in Bingen was a great stop. Denise loves her home, she keeps updating it and keeps improving her beautiful yard outside. If she is staying beneath you in her garden suite, she completely and thoroughly minds her own business, and while I was there, all she was doing were improvements inside and out all day long. The beds are comfy, the space is very airy and breezy and bright and freshly painted. She has simple, lovely style and taste throughout the house. No clutter. The location is quite amazing for gorgeous gorge views and sunsets inside and out. Its set high up on a hill surrounded by a little neighborhood and a steep mountain, nice neighbors, (they all would wave,) and night time breezes. What else? There's a riverwalk a mile away along the Columbia for a quick walk, with events happening around Bingen, White Salmon (which is an adorable village very close by) and Hood River, its a truly great location to experience this amazingly beautiful area. The peeps at Uplifted Coffee hut are great and good drinks there on the way to Hood River. The Oddities shop in Bingen is a neat stop if you like weird and wonderful antiques. And watching the kitesurfers in Hood River is like a zen meditation. I love this neck of the woods, what a unique gem of an area. Also, Denise is super nice and attentive to whatever you need, and she loves her house, and that energy can be felt. (There is a passing train regularly, but its background noise, unless that noise bothers you, its not a deterrent to staying at Denise's!) Thanks again, Denise, Peace and <3, Leela

Charming property in beautiful region

We really enjoyed our time in White Salmon. Denise was so friendly and communicative and even helped fold my kids' laundry! The location is convenient and price is very reasonable. It was helpful to have the full kitchen and washer/dryer. Just note if you're a light sleeper, bring earplugs or white noise machine for the local train. Mahalo, Denise! We hope to be back.

About the host

Hosted by Denise Kainz

Host profile image
Hi!
I have been coming to the Scenic Columbia River Gorge for over 20 years - I love this magical place; so full of the Best that Mother Nature has to offer - from the best wineries, fruit orchards, biking & hiking trails, waterfalls, lakes, mountains, and the list goes on and on...if you love the outdoors - you will love it here!

Why they chose this property

I first came to the Columbia River Gorge to Windsurf which has always been a big passion for me. I have seen Hood River grow, and develop into an amazing Community of likeminded people who enjoy nature and the great outdoors.

What makes this property unique

I love gardening and really enjoy planting flowers and being here to see them blossom. I have planted an Apple tree, Japanese Pear tree, and a fig tree (that has gifted me some wonderful figs!). As well I have also planted lavendar, rosemary, sage, irises (large purple ones that bloom in June)and many other sweet adornments.
My projects last year included remodeling the kitchen and bathroom - along with refinishing the original fir floors. You will love the warmth that this cozy home has to offer!
