Decent place to stay

This was a good place to stay as a home base for doing wildflower and waterfall hikes in the area.

Quiet house in the woods

Very nice house in a beautiful, quiet location. The house is older, but well maintained with beautiful decor. The kitchen is well stocked, but the bathrooms were limited.. no hairdryer, or soap in the showers. The TV had a glitch, it worked but was sort of irritating to watch because of the glitch. Overall we truly enjoyed ourselves and would definitely stay again.

Fun and Sweet Space but very sparse

Lovely spot. Very limited cookware so plan on bringing everything you need. Sparsely furnished (no rugs etc.) but a lovely location. Little things missing (like coat hooks) that would add to convenience. Clean and pleasant just bring every single thing you need (except towels.) It is a beautiful location and cute house.

Away From it all

Stayed here for Thanksgiving. The cabin is in a very peaceful setting, with several areas to walk to and explore or drive around. The house was very cozy, quiet and had pleny of room for myself, spouse and our 2 dogs. The cabin was clean, odor free, plenty of blankets, towels and pillows. The mattresses are a type of memory foam, too soft for me but ok. Since we celebrated Thanksgiving at this cabin we made the traditional turkey dinner, only thing we did need that the cabin did not have was measuring cups/spoons. I'm really happy the county is restoring these 1930 era cabins and making them available for rent. It's an amazing setting. I can't wait to return. And highly recommend.

Mt. Baker house

The house was wonderfully clean. Nice! The heat pump however, could not keep up with the cold weather: 27 degrees nights and 37 degree days. We came to enjoy the views of the Wind River nursery since I worked there 50 years ago and there is a Port O Potty right in the line of sight out the living room window. A bit of a disappointment! Seems like it could be better placed!!!

We loved it, recommend it, and would do it again.

Nice place, my family loved it. I would use it again given the chance and recommend it highly. Fabulous location. Easy access to Carson and Stevenson, so had everything we could need. Plentiful hot water and the owners left plenty of towels. Beds are comfortable and warm and the kitchen has all the basics you need for coffee, refrigeration, utensils, etc. There is a TV, and the owners have provided a DVD player. The absence of Wi-Fi precludes any streaming and there is no point in putting a TV antenna on because there are no standard TV signals out here (at least according to antennaweb.org). We had a great time and didn't miss the TV.

Great!

Super great stay! Close to all the amazing hikes and waterfalls and adventures! We got locked out but the ladies who volunteer next door helped us reach out the the cleaning lady who let us in! The house was perfect for the family and the kids had a blast with the game table down in the basement. I loved the friendly neighbors around us and the swimming hole under the bridge!!

A+++

Location is right in the Gifford Pinchot National Forest in an area where it is close enough to find things to do, a short walk to the small creek for a dip with the kids, hiking trails all around you, scenic waterfalls just a short drive away, the area is nice and quiet and the house is maintained clean. Fun place to stay when visiting the area. Would stay again.

Beautiful Place in Beautiful Setting

OMG! We were impressed. Whole family wanted to move in! Very cute house with all of the amenities and located in a most beautiful area. Easy to find, too. It's going to be even more beautiful in Autumn! BEWARE: It says "no wifi" and there is NO WIFI! Most of family was happy about that. Teens may not be! Lots of work was put into this house, and it shows. Comfortable beds and 1.5 bathrooms really came in handy! Big new fridge & stove; microwave easy to use. Very nice electric fireplace took chill off and gave very nice ambiance. We are very glad we found this house & feel the price is well worth it. You can't find that much charm or room in a motel room anywhere within 100 miles!

Great Historic Home

Fell in love with this historic little house as soon as we walked in the door! It felt a little “out of the way” on arrival, but was actually central to the waterfall hikes we had planned and only 15 min from restaurants and grocery store. Do not hesitate to book! A couple of things to know. No-WiFi, it was in the listing but somehow I missed it. We have ATT and Verizon and had decent service. Just something to keep in mind if you need to download a lot of maps or other data. There is a tv and DVD player, but it was not able to read our memory card, no cable or Roku. There is a small selection of movies to watch (plus we added a couple). Amenities are basic compared to other rentals (no fancy toiletries or even a hair dryer). We only used the kitchen for breakfast and found it well-stocked for our needs. The washer and dryer worked well and was a bonus. It was an honor to stay in this house and support the county’s efforts to restore Wind River. Take a few extra things with you and enjoy!

Lovely spot in need of a few more kitchen supplies

The house is comfortable and spacious. It's a great place to unplug in the woods. You can hear the nearby stream and there are lots of trails nearby. The kitchen is stocked with only the basics, I suggest bringing spices. It'd be great if the property manager would supply a cutting board or two. These were our only qualms, it was a wonderful time.

Cozy, secluded cabin. Great for unwinding with nature.

I stayed here with two friends for a weekend and had a wonderful time! The house is spacious, but cozy and quaint. It’s secluded and very close to a lot of beautiful forest area and a creek. We drove down to Hood River for the day, which was about a 40 minute drive. Definitely recommend if you want to disconnect and spend some time with nature.
