About this property

Dog-friendly creekside home with entertainment barn, private hot tub & firepit

Summary:

Basecamp



The Space:

Make your next group getaway one to remember at this waterfront lodge on the banks of Hackett Creek. It's an incredible space for a reunion, a holiday, or a trip with multiple families, offering a private hot tub, a deck among the evergreens, and a converted garage rec room.



Natural wood and light are constants throughout the house, which is spread out across two levels. There are many spots to sit down and relax after a day spent hiking or skiing, including a sectional sofa warmed by an electric wood stove in the living room and plush couches in the dedicated media room. The gourmet kitchen is a natural gathering space as well, offering stainless steel appliances, two ovens, an island with a gas range and bar seats for three, and a window-lined dining area with both a circular table and an expansive farm table with views of the surrounding woods.



The outdoor spaces are equally special, including a deck that was built around the trunks of several towering fir trees. You can bring your meals outside to the deck or to the picnic tables at the creek's edge before capping the evening with a soak in the hot tub and stories around the firepit.



There's no shortage of entertainment in the converted garage rec room - an indoor/outdoor space where you can play Ping-Pong, foosball, cornhole, and basketball while projecting a favorite movie on the wall.



At night, you'll find one bedroom on the first floor and the other five bedrooms upstairs. The home has three main suites upstairs, with two private baths and one dual-access bath. Additional amenities include free WiFi throughout the house, two washers/dryers for your laundry needs, and a newly added treadmill to help you stick to your workout routine.



This charming house sits on nearly 12 acres in a quiet, park-like setting next to Hackett Creek. You'll be right at the edge of Mt. Hood National Forest and six miles west of the heart of Rhododendron. If you follow Mt. Hood Highway, you can easily reach the mountain's hiking trails and ski resorts, with Mt. Hood Skibowl 15 miles east, Timberline Lodge 21 miles east, and Mt. Hood Meadows 26 miles east.

It's such a fun and quirky home and we loved the character. It isn't too far from town either if you find you forget something. The back deck was great although an owl tried to swoop down and get my small dog so beware if you have small animals with you! Overall really nice stay.

Amazing Retreat Near Mount Hood

We had such a good time at this lovely character-filled cabin. The kitchen is well-appointed with a large table. The patio has another large table, BBQ, and hot tub under a pavilion. The giant separate game room building was cozy and had something for everyone to do. Five stars and we highly recommend a stay!

Incredible!

We loved everything about Basecamp. Comfy beds, 103 degree hot tub, serene location & cleanliness were all top notch. We had a hard time choosing between exploring the Mt. hood area and wanting to just hang out at Basecamp. Great for large groups with space for everyone to get a nature fix. Cannot recommend this place enough!

Fun place for all ages

We had a great family gathering. The house is well-equipped in the kitchen and the "fun" room provides activities for all ages. The deck and creek area expands on the room of the place. Note, the 6th bedroom is hidden is the dinosaur cave.

Great space for large group

A large group of us stayed here for a long weekend and it was fantastic! Everything from the amenities to the property to the large gorgeous dining room space was exquisite. The place was well stocked with linens and felt super clean. The heating situation felt a bit complicated but once everyone realized there were individual room heaters we were good. I would totally recommend this property to anyone looking for a good space to accommodate a larger group.

Amazing home & fun location

The property was amazing; felt like you were in the woods and wilderness, but close enough to do all the tourist attractions. The home was big enough for 13 of us to stay comfortably. The game room was a fun spot to hang out. The hot tub was clean. We were all able to sit and eat dinner together at the table. The firepit by the river was a fun place to gather and chat. Communication with property manager was prompt. This house was perfect and I'd recommend it!!

The house and all the surrounding were so beautiful and peaceful. We absolutely loved our stay. The water could have been hotter in the kitchen and bathrooms. Showers were only warm. Other than that our stay was amazing. Thank you so much for sharing your house with us. Loved the Christmas tree. It was perfect for us as we celebrated our family Christmas.

A Solid Weekend Getaway

Overall, the property was great and was exactly what we needed for the weekend getaway with a large group of friends. Ample places for people to sleep, dine, and entertain themselves all wrapped up in one property. My only knock on our stay was that some of the dishes and utensils were dirty upon arrival. Didn't ruin the experience by any means, just something that I noticed. The grill was also pretty dirty and gave it a solid scrub down. Otherwise, if you are looking for somewhere to have a solid staycation with friends or family around the Mt. Hood area. This property should be a good fit and has something for just about everyone.

Lovely summer accommodations for a large group

We had a family get-together and we all fit nicely in this house. It was a lovely giant cabin - nothing fancy but really comfortable. The kitchen and dining area was where we all spent the most time and it fit us all very nicely. Another favorite area was the deck and fire pit. The location of the house was great for hiking and was not far from a nice grocery store and a few restaurants. The only thing that was a little off was that the first floor bedroom (that slept 5) didn't really have a bathroom. There was a full bath on the first floor but it was quite far from the bedroom.

Wonderful home!

What a wonderful home!! So spacious, perfect for groups, excellent location for skiing at Timberline. The only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars is because of communication. We had one question before our trip and a couple of issues during our stay, and I never got a response to any of our messages other than an auto-generated email from Vacasa saying they were busier than normal and would reply when able. If you’re willing to roll the dice on communication, this house is AMAZING. One of the best large houses we’ve ever rented.

Outstanding for a group

Had 12 people for a long weekend—wonderful place. Tons of space, tons to do. Easy checkout which is much appreciated and surprisingly rare. Minor complaints—very minor, so consider these to be tips more than real issues—the kitchen has plenty but some very odd omissions. There were no large pots, for instance, which isn’t great in a house that can fit a lot of people. A couple of really big cheap stockpots for pasta or whatever would help. Don’t get me wrong. Loved the house and would happily repeat. Probably will.

First of all, let me say we had a great time and would recommend this place. The property is beautiful, the house is quirky-cool, we all agreed the beds were comfy, and the "Sports Barn" was so fun! We did have a few issues that put a damper on the spirit, but I'm sure they will be fixed before next time. Totally our bad, but we didn't think through that we would be staying during the hottest days of the year in a place with no air conditioning. They provided a TON of fans, but it was still super hot. Other things: the light was burnt out in one of the bedrooms (we swapped the bulb with the hall light), the gas oven made the whole kitchen stink of gas, the fridge in the kitchen was icing over and leaking, and the fridge in the laundry room got warm and spoiled all the food we had in there. The Sports Barn had a lot of fun equipment, but some of it was broken (deflated balls, crooked pool ques, duct-taped air hockey table). Again, all fixable stuff, and overall we had a wonderful time!

Everything but the showers was great

Property is great with all the amenities but unfortunately with 15 people none of us could take a shower as the water pressure was non-existent. Perhaps the listing should inform guests that the water pressure for all the showers does not really work. The pressure kept going from a stream down to a trickle which made it unable to properly get clean. I would have given a better rating but showers are very important to 15 people who go up snowboarding all day and just want to come to the cabin and relax with a hot shower

Great property

Loved the space and location. Everything it claimed it would be. Be aware that water pressure can be a problem so manage shower time with all your guests. The party barn can be cold during the winter since there is only one small wood stove. Wood is provided. Also be aware that even though there are 16 beds, they only allow 15 guests. It isn't clear before booking and only about a week b4 your stay will you get a "guest rules" email that states "no more than 15 guests at any given time including non overnight guests" and max capacity on cars is 6. If you are planning a family reunion and have more than 15 people coming, they (Vacasa) threaten to evict you and your guests. The home is beautiful and spacious and the party barn is an amazing benefit. It was everything we imagined it would be and given we know the rules, would stay again, we just think they should be more forthcoming with the rules and perhaps be a little flexible. But that's their prerogative.
