About this property

Walk to Downtown White Salmon, Sweet Retreat

Enjoy a peek of Mt Hood from this cozy retreat with private, enclosed yard. Walk to downtown White Salmon from this one bedroom, one bath home. You will love the vaulted ceilings. This home has A/C!

We allow pets at pet friendly homes only with prior approval and a $15/night/pet, pet fee. Pets are not permitted on the bedding or furniture and must never be left at the home alone unless they are crated/kenneled.

Please note, if you choose to book with this home, you will be receiving a separate rental agreement that will need to be electronically signed before your stay.

The Columbia River Gorge, with its mountains and rivers, offers the vacationer and recreation enthusiast the opportunity to windsurf, mountain bike, kayak, golf, ski, hike, fish, or just relax in the unhurried pace of a natural paradise. Historic buildings line the beautifully scenic streets of downtown Hood River, with a bustling shopping district featuring boutiques, designer shops, outdoor adventure gear outfitters, antique shops, art galleries and no less than 30 restaurants.

There are many orchards and vineyards in Hood River. The Hood River Valley is known for its luscious apples, pears, cherries, peaches and other fruits, and for the view of the majestic snowcapped peak of Mt. Hood. People from all over Oregon make an annual trek in the fall to the many farm stands to stock up on fresh apples and pears. Other produce is available, and varies by season. The award-winning Hood River Vineyards is located on a hillside overlooking the Hood River Valley. Their tasting room features traditional wines, and fruit liqueurs.

The Columbia River Gorge, with its magnificent views make this a dream spot for a destination wedding.

Wind surfing capital of the world is Hood River's latest distinction. The winds from the Columbia River Gorge, best during the middle of the day, create ideal conditions for riding the waves. To enjoy the view of "boardheads" at play, drive to the Columbia Gorge Sailpark or follow Second Street to the waterfront.

The Mt. Hood region and its more than sixty miles of forested mountains, 77 waterfalls and myriad lakes and streams are a rip-roaring mecca for outdoor adventure. The mountain is home to four ski areas and offers the country's only year-round skiing and snowboarding.

Waveseeker
Waveseeker is cosy, basic and overall a good place to stay. It could, however, do with some attention by way of window trim that's peeling badly, baseboard in some of the rooms that needs replacing (or is missing...) and a light over the stove (the one in the microwave doesn't work and didn't last year when I reported it...).

horrible experience
The bridge was out and was told only days before arriving. Found out, all were told a month before for scheduled maintenance. They knew when I reserved the unit on the 23rd that the bridge would be out. The title of the email I received about the bridge closure was titled 'info about bridge'. It came the same day as the checkin email. I read the checkin email. I did not read the email titled bridge info. very deceptive and the commute was an HOUR to the next bridge. VERY POOR EXPERIENCE.

Perfect little place for 2
Needed a base camp for Everyday Brewing block party. 5 min walk to downtown White Salmon. Small but great for 2. Lives bigger than it’s size with high vaulted ceilings, exposed beams and lots of character. Good sized yard but grass in bad shape. Good value for the money.

A cute place that had a well stocked kitchen, comfortable bed and easy access. The team at Arrived was very prompt in getting back to me when we were unable to get the lock box cover back on. This is a well located place for 2 in White Salmon close to Grocery and amenities. White Salmon Bakery is just off Jewett - Very close . The TV was a little challenging to get all the remotes activated, but we finally managed. Cute place.

We enjoyed our stay but would offer some suggestions to make it even better: have lawn mown prior to guests - grass was too high 10" to enjoy sitting out --men who mowed the day before we left did a wonderful job; repair or remove rickety wooden lawn/porch chairs; offer coordinated towel sets, include more hand towels & face cloths; provide extra box/es of Kleenex; add some bowls & small plates to dinnerware, also wine glasses; include more helps on remotes - ie. must point them at the receiver to work; replace light bulb above oven/under MW; include recycle bags; repair screen fittings so as not to have gaps - great to open windows in nice weather; remove old door mat on top of outside grill and replace with a nice welcoming door mat.:)

Quirky but enjoyable.
A quirky home. We enjoyed it but never really felt comfortable. Giving 4 stars because it really needs a house manual to explain certain things - such as the heating, entertainment system, and access to loft (which should be avoided). That being said, Arrived's Support Team continues to be top notch and rapidly provided us with a space heater when the wall heater in the bedroom broke. Note that the TV does not have smart capabilities and the wifi speed may not be suitable for those needing remote work capabilities.

Practical and comfortable
Positives: Has everything you need for a comfortable stay. Nice design job in the bedroom, we liked the skylight. The vaulted ceilings are nicely done, makes the place feel bigger than it is. If you bring a dog, the yard is large enough and fully fenced. Not so great: Windows needed cleaning and the yard needed some TLC - weeds were tall and the plastic Adirondack chairs were kinda grimy and brittle/cracking. There are no mountain views due to surrounding shrubs and houses. Bottom line, it's fine for what you need, a good practical option if you're traveling with a dog. Could be better if they put more effort into maintaining the yard/exterior.

Great little getaway
We spent a long weekend here and definitely enjoyed it. The space is cozy and comfortable for 2 people (+ our dog). Everything was clean and easy to find in the kitchen. The fenced in yard was great for letting the dog run around. It is also in a great location within walking distance to a lot of the restaurants in White Salmon. We enjoyed dinner at Henni's and Pizza Leona and breakfast at White Salmon Baking Co! All were within walking distance (if the weather had been warm enough for it). The only small issue was slow wifi (not good for streaming shows/movies or working if that's in your plans). But that was our only minor "complaint". Would recommend!

Funky charm and pretty good location
We were able to hike by day and walk to restaurants in the evening. The house has a southern exposure, so the afternoon light in autumn was welcoming. The property managers communicated promptly by text. A little updating would be welcome

Very disappointed
Three day rental… had to check out the next morning, and get a hotel. My husband is a disabled veteran with mobility issues. The couch was so low he couldn’t use. Only other options were two wood bar stools & two uncomfortable dining chairs, one with a wobbly leg… unusable. Could not find any channels on TV which were free. The wood pellet stove was not working ( as posted above it.) Some of dishes in cupboard were dirty. And although written instructions in rental tell you to load dish washer, there was no dishwasher. The biggest problem was the toilet which was unusually low. So low my husband could not get up and down from it. The only response from the property manager was “sorry the unit was not a good match for us.” She refused a refund for the two nights we could not use. We left unit clean as instructed (well, we hand washed dishes as there was no dishwasher.) We have happily used VRBO many time (easily dealing with quirks most homes have👍) Unfortunately, this was the worse VRBO experience we have ever had. 😔 Small house with yard would work for couple with no mobility or joint issues.

Nice Relaxing Home
Overall impression is that the outside leaves something to be desired, but all this is wiped away when you enter the home which is light, airy, fun, and inviting. The only downside is that the internet went out after 24 hours and it was a weekend so no contact
