About this property

Fantastic Rustic Mountain Lodge, Game Room w/ Pool Table, *Pet Friendly* Close 2 Gov Camp & Hood Riv

*IMPORTANT: During snow season, 4-wheel drive is required.*
Plan a mountainside escape in this stately Parkdale vacation rental with a secluded location and great amenities, including a game room with a pool table. Come winter or summer, this idyllic Mt. Hood lodge is the perfect place to take a break from the daily grind with family or friends!

The rustic abode is nestled in nature, yet just six miles from museums and shopping in town. Explore the Mt. Hood National Forest by mountain bike or hiking boot in summer, or hit the slopes at Mt. Hood Meadows or Cooper Spur Mountain Resort by snowfall!

The log cabin-style home is timeless with handsome leather accents, a cascading rock fireplace, and modern amenities including WiFi and stainless steel appliances. Soak up the fresh mountain air on your spacious front deck or flip a juicy hamburger on the gas grill. A bistro table and private views of the trees make this outdoor space a perfect summer hangout.

Svendsen Lodge is cozy, providing accommodating amenities for groups of eight. Guests can stretch their legs across four bathrooms and three bedroom suites. The bedrooms are spacious, providing great natural lighting and hardwood accents.

One suite has a queen-size bed. A second room offers a queen bed and unique loft, while the third room is ideal for families offering a queen bed and two twin beds. You'll have convenience amenities like central AC and a washer/dryer to make everyone feel right at home.

Inside, enjoy social areas on the main level and private bedrooms upstairs. Warm your toes around the gas fireplace after a long day on the ski slopes or unwind with a family flick on the flat screen TV. Are little ones arguing over the remote? Svendsen Lodge offers a library of books and a regal game room complete with a pool table and media entertainment for non-stop family fun!

Whether you're hosting a holiday dinner or packing a summer picnic, the open-concept kitchen and dining room is ideal for large groups. Modern appliances, including a dishwasher, french door refrigerator, and a formal table for eight, will make planning and serving meals a breeze.

In spring and summer, the mountain is a wonderland of mushrooms and wildflowers! Hike the Frog Creek Trail or pick up a map from the Hood River Ranger District to find the perfect fishing spot. Learn about the history of the region at the Hutson House museum, then enjoy pizza and brews at the nearby Saw Tooth Roadhouse.

In winter, the region is a hot spot for all snow sports, including snowmobiling, Nordic skiing, snow shoeing, and alpine runs! At Mt. Hood Meadows you can enjoy breakfast with Santa, then hit the slopes or watch and epic rail jam. Cooper Spur Mountain Resort boasts 50 acres of beginner and intermediate level terrain and even snow tubing!

This home is a perfect combination of backwoods relaxation and action-packed outdoor recreation. Get your group together for an intimate stay on the mountain!

Great Cabin in the Woods
My family stayed here while our child raced in the Wy'east Wonder. It was the perfect location close to Parkdale in Mt Hood and a great time of year to be in the area with all the orchards, fruit stands, wineries and breweries. The Svensen Lodge had everything we needed and lots of space to spread out. I'd go back in a heart beat!

Wedding stay
Very beautiful home. We had a very comfortable nice stay for our daughter’s wedding. Beautiful setting among tall fir trees, very quiet and relaxing, very clean. The beds were confortable. Kitchen had everything you need to make a nice meals. The main floor bedroom, it did not have a closet to hang clothes, it had an antique armoire that smelled old and musty inside. Not the best place to hang our clothes for the our daughters wedding. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Beautiful House
We had a lovely stay at the Svendsen Lodge. There were 6 in our party with more than enough room to stretch out and relax. The younger folks loved the game room to hang out, while the older folks loved lounging on the deck or going wine tasting. The kitchen was very well appointed with everything you need to cook a grilled cheese or a gourmet meal. The management staff were very attentive and nice. We would highly recommend a stay here!

Great get away
Are family stayed at the home for a long weekend and it was our first time. It is a beautiful setting with no neighbors or busy streets. The home was a perfect fit for three couples and did not have any issues. We visited downtown Hood River and Parkdale which was only a 10 min drive.

Wonderful getaway!
This is a perfect locale to get away and relax in the woods! Hood River is an easy 15 minute drive, and Mt. Hood is really close as well. It's a hiker's dream - so many hikes in the Columbia River Gorge and near Mt. Hood. The place is gorgeous, very clean, and very well stoked. We had 2 families (7 in all), and there was plenty of room for us all to relax. We all want to come back!

Relaxing Getaway
The property's closeness to nature, nestled in the forest, gives it a charming lodge-like feel. We were immediately captivated by the pine scent inside the house upon arrival. The well-equipped kitchen and bathrooms added to our comfort. Its location, close to winter sports, hiking trails, and shopping, made it an ideal spot for our family getaway. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and are already making plans to return. A great tip for future guests: be sure to visit Solera Brew Pub nearby with breathtaking views of Mt Hood from their outdoor seating area.

Winter Wonderland
Very spacious and open high ceiling, high/large windows, spacious kitchen and large dining table, warm gas fire - felt very chalet/cabin like experience. We were fortunate to have it snow during our whole stay so everyday was a wonderland, and the house sits at the end of a residential road and top of the hill. It gave us the feeling of being by ouselves, on top of a snowy mountain, at some resort cabin. Pool table we loved and played much. Communication with host was excellent-quick to respond and accomadating/helpfu. Liked so much we booked an extra day and the host was so helpful. We all had a great time in snow and skiing at hood, and the stay was so great we will book again.

Beautiful home
We very much enjoyed our stay. It would be helpful if the heat had been kept at a reasonable setting instead of off completely as this is a large house and took many hours to heat when the outside temp was near 30 degrees.

Amazing Lodge
We had an amazing time at Svendsen Lodge! It was packed with amenities, and the perfect size for our group of 8. The game room was amazing for our teenage boy group, and my husband and I could hang out upstairs and relax by the fire. Thanks so much! We will be back!

Cozy, Private Lodge in Serene setting
A group of 7 friends shared a most delightful time at the Svendsen Lodge. It was perfect accommodations for our restful, private "girl time". Serene, wooded setting provided the peaceful get away along with the well-appointed kitchen, gathering rooms and large dining table for games and meals. Close to Hood River, the Fruit Loop and wineries, but tucked away on a dead-end forested road for peace and tranquility. Pure Delight!

While my friends and I were in route to celebrate our best friends getting married on Mt. Hood, our original VRBO cancelled on us. This property was a life savor! It was the perfect location for us to stay for all the wedding celebrations and for the bridesmaids to get ready at!
