A beautiful house in Welches

The house is very large and well maintained. The hot tub is very nice with lots of jets and it holds 6 people easily. The kitchen is well stocked and there are plenty of spices and a bottle of olive oil. The beds are comfortable, although the downstairs bedroom is next to the heat pump which makes a very loud noise.Our only problem was that the house had not been heated so it was cold enough, even after the heater had been on for 7 hours, that some of the family members had to wear jackets and woolen caps. Even the next day it was only 68 degrees in the house. The owner communicated well and offered to send out someone to reprogram the heater but I did not see the message until returning from The Mountain late in the afternoon. By then it was warm enough in the house, 24 hours after moving in. But I would still recommend this house if you are staying at Mt. Hood. You just have to remind the owner to turn on the heater the day before .

Good for One Night

The house was in a good location and provided a lot of space for our group. The layout was good and provided our teens with their own place to hang out downstairs. A soak in the hot tub was a nice way to end the night. The kitchen was spacious and was decently stocked with dishes, pots and pans.

Beautiful, quiet, comfortable home 20 minutes from Timberline

This house was very spacious, clean, and had modern fixtures. The neighborhood is quiet and the yard is beautiful. 10/10 would stay here again and would recommend. We towed a trailer with gear out to OR from CO. It was a bit difficult backing a trailer into the driveway but it’s doable.

Big house. Little hot water.

This house is amazing. It’s beautiful. It’s spacious. We loved cooking dinner in the kitchen and sitting around the big table. We enjoyed the big living area with fireplace and of course the hot tub was a favorite. I would have given 5 stars BUT after a day on the slopes all we wanted was a hot shower. Only 2 of us could have a hot shower right away. The others had to wait hours for the tank to fill up to have a hot shower which was such a bummer after snowboarding all day. The house has 3 beautiful big full bathrooms with showers and says it can sleep 14 people! It really needs a bigger water heater. Other than that we enjoyed our stay.

Wonderful Weekend Away

Walking into this house blew my mind. It was stunning and had an incredible view. Even with knowing how many the house could sleep, we were floored at how spacious it was! The property manager was extremely accommodating and understanding about a circumstance that was beyond our control and saved the trip for a few of our friends.. What a magical place and made for a wonderful weekend. We would love to return and were thinking about making this a once to twice a year visit. Thank you so much for having our family and for providing such a beautiful getaway. We all loved it!

Beautiful home in a great location.

My Book Club planned an overnight stay at this home. We found a great kitchen for making super together, spacious lounges, nice bedding, gorgeous bathrooms. It would have been nice if the hot tub was covered as it rains plenty in Welches, but we put on our beanies, and were able to enjoy the tub, in the rain, very much at any rate. A great place! Would recommend.

Surprise 50th Birthday Party

Everything was perfect...except, we had a very upset neighbor because we parked some cars in the cul de sac at the end of the road. She complained about our house and the house up the hill being the “Party” houses and she was sick and tired of it! She threatened to call the police and the “commissioner” and stated that they owned the cul de sac, that it was private property and we weren’t allowed to park there. We listened to her tirade and when she was done, assured her that we would do everything we could to be quiet and accommodating. We never heard anything after that.
