Wonderful cabin!

Plenty of room both indoors and out for our family of 5 plus two four legged friends. Lots of living space, a well stocked kitchen and a short walk down to a gorgeous river. Host was friendly and readily available to ensure a smooth visit. This cabin was a perfect home base for adventures on Mt. Hood!

Relaxing Getaway

We enjoyed a relaxing holiday getaway at the Sandy River Ski House. Just a short drive from the Portland metro area but a world away in terms of peace and quiet: just the sound of the wind in the trees and the gentle waters of the nearby Sandy River. The house is equipped with all the amenities you may need and is easy to find off the main highway. Overall, a great place to unwind, unplug, and connect with nature

Sandy River Ski House was perfect for our family's stay in the area. We were so delighted with the outdoor space and ate most of our meals at the picnic table and spent a good deal of time relaxing by the private access to Sandy River. The location of the house was so convenient to Thriftway and several eateries and coffee shops as well as all the places we wanted to explore - Mt Hood/Timberline Lodge, Old Salmon River Trail and Trillium Lake were a few of our favorites.The beds were comfortable, the hot tub was very clean, the house was well labeled and David was extremely helpful with recommendations and answering any questions I had. Highly recommend!

Clean, Comfy & Quiet – A Perfect Mountain Getaway

We had such a great stay here! Super clean and comfortable. We all felt at home right away. The hot tub was clean and toasty, simply splendid. This was great in the evening after a long day of hiking. We loved the nature path down to the river area. The down comforters were super cozy, and mornings with coffee on the front porch and birds singing… couldn’t ask for it better. Quiet, relaxing, and just a really beautiful place. Highly recommend!

What a Beautiful Home

What a beautiful stay. We loved the hot tub and the clear partial awning to view the night sky while listening to the river sounds. This place is great! Frosty mugs in freezer. Super clean. Really nice furnishings. Excellent new mattresses. Sleep number bed in master. Plenty of kitchen "stuff" for cooking. A sweet yard to sit in. The cool meadow down back, and an excellent spot by the river. Great host.

Lovely home amongst the trees

A quiet neighborhood, a lovely home with lots to do, a wonderfully well put together vacation home. The hot tub was great and the host was easy to communicate with and allowed us a late checkout which was the perfect compliment to our weekend. He even ordered snow for our stay and the fireplace made lovely ambiance. We loved all the games and cozy blankets and beds and we'd love to come back.

Lots of Room, Clean, comfortable and great location

The Sandy River Ski House is a great place to stay while exploring the Mt. Hood area. The place is large, very comfortable beds, a good hot tub, kitchen is good and the outside area is very nice. The house is very close to restaurants, groceries, and many really good hikes. I would recommend this place and would stay again when in the area.
