Summary:
Alder Wood
The Space:
Spend your days skiing, hiking, and fishing when you book a getaway to this riverfront home with a private deck, an outdoor fireplace, and a gorgeous location on the banks of the Sandy River. Wonderfully situated in a woodland neighborhood in Rhododendron, this rustic and elegant two-level home is less than six miles from the Resort at the Mountain's golf courses, 15 miles from Mt. Hood Skibowl, 21 miles from the Timberline Lodge and Ski Area, and 26 miles from Mt. Hood Meadows Ski Resort.
Once featured in the pages of Better Homes and Gardens, this warm and lofty home makes a comfortable escape for small families and groups of friends looking to enjoy the beauty of Mt. Hood. With two-story ceilings and a stunning wall of windows that frame the forest and the Sandy River, the living space is full of thoughtful and homey details. Curl up with a novel on the sofa, or enjoy an afternoon game of Scrabble in the warmth of the wood-burning fireplace.
And although the tempting dishes at the Rendezvous Grill are only five miles away, you'll cook comfortably in the open and well-equipped full kitchen. Grind your own Mt. Hood Roasters coffee beans each morning and enjoy family breakfasts at the farmhouse dining table.
As the sun sets each evening, pour yourself a glass of wine and soak in the sweeping river views on the back deck. Feeling a bit cold? You'll find an outdoor fireplace for those chilly mountain nights.
To make your stay all the more relaxing and convenient, Alder Wood is equipped with a private washer/dryer. This home also has a TV and DVD player. Upstairs, you'll find two loft-style adjoining bedrooms with one queen bed and one twin bed, although a door does not separate them. WiFi is also provided.

This property was very peaceful and stayed cool inside on the warm days. There was lots of space to relax and cook. We really enjoyed the back porch and the access to the river.
It was a beautifully curated home! loved all the details in the design, easy access to river and a cute lil black kitty that cuts through the yard. Wish there were more curtains on windows that faced other houses and there was bass we could feel in our chests while sitting on the back patio, it was from across the river and only during midday.
Very nice clean cabin. Small, but cozy and enjoyable for a couple or small family.

Super stay!
A weekend at Hickory Haven is perfect for a weekend with the family to hike, play games, enjoy the nature and sit in front of the fireplace with a hot cocoa.

Wonderful Home!
This place is so beautiful, spacious, and clean. It feels secluded but isn't far from the main roads with restaurants. Would love to stay here again.
Bit of a hiccup at the beginning but overall was a wonderful stay. Really enjoyed the massive collection of VHS
