Sandy Retreat Stay

This really is a retreat; surrounded by nature with access down to the river is just a beautiful sight. Plus you’re not far from Mt. Hood for additional activities. The cabin was cozy and clean.

Perfect Cabin Getaway

This cabin was absolutely perfect for 2 Moms and their kids. The cabin was so comfortable and had everything that we needed. The beds were very comfortable and we loved opening the window at night and hearing the river.

Beautiful house and property. The trees and the sound of the river is amazing! Very quiet neighborhood. The walk along the river is gorgeous! We loved our stay. It would have been nice to be able to open the downstairs windows to be able to hear the river inside and also to let in some air. The path down to the river is quite dangerous and uncomfortably close to one of the neighbors gazebo and stairway. These are the only two things we had a negative comment on.

Beautiful cozy cabin getaway

The cabin was beautiful and clean and in such a great location with an amazing view of and access to the Sandy river and super close to the nearby ski areas! My boyfriend and dog and I were completely at home snuggling up in front of the fire in this super cozy cabin after a long day of adventuring.

Everything about this place was amazing! We loved it so much! The view, the trees, the yard, the home-all of it was what you’d want in a much needed retreat from the crazy. Most of the home was incredibly clean-the only thing that kept me from giving 5 stars is that when we pulled the sheets back on the beds—they didn’t look clean-we found lots of long hair from someone and other things you just had to wipe off the sheets. We didn’t end up sleeping in the bed that had all the hair because of it. All in all we’d def come back and def encouraged others to check it out as well.

Better than we expected!

This was such a good retreat for me and my husband. We hiked Ramona falls in the am, relaxed by the river and on the deck in the afternoon and finished each day in the (under advertised) hot tub overlooking the sandy river. Can’t say enough about this sweet cabin!

Peaceful Retreat!

What a terrific cabin that I cannot recommend it enough! The kitchen was very well equipped, and the home was incredibly clean and cozy. We spent the days down by the river in the soft sand, and evenings in the hot tub & relaxing by the firepit. What a great place to fully enjoy Oregon's peaceful environment!

This place is so peaceful! Perfect rustic cabin by the river. Only thing I could suggest is maybe an additional space heater. I truly did not want to leave!

Had a great experience.

It was a great location. Has access to a great fishing hole if that’s your thing. Great for a single family stay. Think it would be crowded for a group of people. Only downside was trying to keep the lower floor warm. Had a fire rolling most of the time with heaters on and was still cold. Great location and amenities.

Hello Alexander, we are so happy to hear you enjoyed your stay! Please note that there is also a wall heater and a space heater in the downstairs bedroom to help keep the area warm. We hope we can host you again soon!

Quiet break.

We loved or midweek winter break at this cabin. The neighborhood was quiet, cabin was clean, kitchen was well stocked for cooking and tv has good streaming plus a large collection of movies and games. The hot tub overlooks the Sandy River and has great views of the stars when the clouds clear. My dog loved the large fenced yard. We will definitely return, maybe in the summer when we can appreciate the little beach by the river.

Great get-away!

We enjoyed our stay at this rustic (but clean and fresh!) cabin. River access, fenced yard, comfy beds,, and hot tub were all positive features. We brought inner tubes, but we wished we had ropes to anchor against the current. We did learn to block the middle of the gate to keep our adventurous dog from exploring the neighborhood. We would definitely come back!

A great find

The Sandy River Retreat is comfortable, with a well-equipped kitchen, and is conveniently located between Mt. Hood and Portland. We soaked in the hot tub on the deck each evening and enjoyed the sound of the Sandy River below and the sight of bats zipping around overhead. We highly recommend the short Wetland Trail and Cascade Streamwatch Trail at Wildwood Recreation Site (BLM) and longer hikes from nearby Forest Service trailheads, including the Ramona Falls Loop and the unique Castle Canyon Trail.

Incredibly Relaxing

This was exactly what our family needed! The home was very clean and comfortable, everything you need is available, the river was peaceful, the hot tub was relaxing, the fire pit provided a great atmosphere, the fenced yard was perfect for our dogs, and the deck was a wonderful spot to just sit in peace and quiet. And the only recommendation I would add is to have a sink strainer to prevent things falling in. We definitely will be back and can’t wait to spend more time here!

Photos don't do it justice

The cabin was absolutely spectacular. The photos really don't do it justice. It's a little rustic and charming, but clean, well appointed, and the view is truly amazing. We got in on Friday evening when it was dark, and the river view when we woke up really took our breath away. Only downsides: the washing machine really doesn't work very well, and a 10am checkout is really early.

Look no further!

We enjoyed a peaceful and relaxing couple of days here. The cabin is so quant and has everything you need. The dog especially loved the River access and large yard. The fireplace was wonderful and there was plenty of wood. The hot tub overlooks the river! The sound of river was very relaxing. The cabin is perfect for 2 or 3 people but no more. There’s only one full bathroom (downstairs). The beds are very firm but we were able to still get a good nights rest. We will definitely be back-can’t wait!

Rustic Cabin on the Sandy River

We had a lovely stay in this cabin for 3 nights. It has a large deck overlooking the river with table and chairs. It is spacious inside and the kitchen functions well apart from the older-style oven which takes quite a while to warm up. There is also a really nice fire-pit outside with chairs but sadly it rained the whole time we were there so couldn't use it. All in all I would recommend this property, it was very clean inside with a lot of charm. We also had trouble opening the lock on the gate - maybe this should be addressed.

Thank you for staying with us, Heather. We apologize for the issues you had with the stove and gate lock. Our local staff is always available to assist you with any issues during your stay if we are notified. We have passed along your comments to our local staff so they can work with our maintenance team to address these concerns. We hope to host you again.

Very cooperate.

All we were asking for was a late check out of just one hour. And they said because we didn’t ask for it two days prior that we could not do it and they were going to charge us for it.

Bad Thermostat

The thermostat should be replaced. The thermostats wiring is heating up so it turns off long before it gets to a comfortable temperature. Making it hard to relax for the three nights we stayed

We apologize if you were uncomfortable during your visit and wish you had called. Maintenance is scheduled to inspect the thermostat. Thank you, Tim!
