Woods hideaway with mountain view

Great place for a sense of isolation in luxury. Living space is bright and open with great views of Mt Hood and the surrounding landscape. A good circuit or trails on site for quick walks. Kitchen is well appointed and the bathrooms are modern and comfortable. Easy drive from Hood River.

Wonderful escape

We had a wonderful stay at this mountain retreat. We took our dog and it’s hard to say if we or he enjoyed the property more. 25 secluded acres to wander with little paths all over. The home was very comfortable and had everything we needed for relaxing and light cooking. We were gifted with 5 inches of snow overnight on our second full day and it was magical to wake up to. The house is a good 20 minutes to any town or a store so we were happy we packed food and got a few items one day we were near town so we could truly relax and enjoy the quiet and isolation.

Beautiful nature getaway

Perfectly off the beaten path, looking directly at Mt. Hood, quiet and gorgeously placed, open and bright house. It's high above the gorge with big sky views. Wonderful kitchen with the right amount of stuff so that cooking was easy and pretty. Clean and well laid out. We will be back.

Relaxing, peaceful oasis

This home was perfect for my family's Christmas. It was clean and welcoming. It is a bit remote from town but that was what we wanted and it was a wonderful place to cook, take hikes, sit by the fire and unwind. On a clear day the views of Mt Hood are spectacular!

Relaxing, Quiet with a Great View of Mt. Hood

Beautiful Home, Elizabeth and Greg set us up well with a bottle of wine from one of the many excellent local vineyards. We made a three hour drive to the coast to spend the day at Ecola State Park, Locally - Mountain Biking, Curtain Falls (one of many local hikes). You would not believe the wind surfers on the Columbia River. The girls wanted to take a class, but ran out of time. Mount Hood is an Hour drive. We had a great hike.

Beautiful Home and View

This home is so beautiful and such a great private place for relaxing. We unfortunately had a sick kiddo and did not get to enjoy it as much as I would have liked but everything exceeded my expectations from seeing it online. The view is spectacular of Mt. Hood and the property is so private and unique. They had everything and more that we needed and we felt very welcomed and taken care of by the hosts. The only thing that I would say is that the air conditioning cools the main part of house very well but the bedrooms still were very warm by the evening. With a baby it was just hard to keep him cool and comfortable but there are plenty of fans to help keep the bedrooms cool. Also, if you have a baby, bring blackout solutions for sleep. The guest bedroom was much darker than the master but we have a slumber tent and even with a fan going the tent got pretty warm for our son to sleep in. He was also sick though. So bringing something to put over the windows in the heat of the summer for little ones may be a better option. Overall, we would highly recommend the stay and would love to come back again.

Oasis in the Forest

We can’t say enough about our stay at this property- it is everything and more as described. Elizabeth was a wonderful hostess from the very beginning with communication, directions, expectations, and getting us there safely and checking in on us and our pampered pooch. We love the solitude, the forest and found it to be a wonderful base for exploring the Gorge, both the Washington and Oregon side. Our only regret is having to leave! We most certainly will be back. Worth every penny.

Amazing house, amazing location, amazing hosts!

Elizabeth and Greg went out of their way to make us feel comfortable and welcomed to their unbelievably beautiful home with a stunning view of Mt. Hood. My wife and I decided on this location for a remote anniversary week. Everything was perfect. The house is super cozy, the hosts have thought of everything (my OCD wife was blown away with the details!). The location is far enough out that you truly do feel secluded, however civilization is only minutes away with a quick shot into The Dalles or Hood River for any provisions you may have forgotten. Our new favorite hideout in the Gorge!

A magical peaceful escape

Everything was perfect. Plus we received a foot of snow adding to the magic. I didn’t want to leave the calmness and beauty knowing the stresses of living in the city were waiting at home. I started looking at remote property offerings, but I think I will just rent this perfect house for a month. Thank you for creating such a special place.

Beautiful, Peaceful, Soothing

This modern mountain view retreat is exactly that. The house is beautiful, modern and very comfortable with everything you will need. The mountain view is of Mt. Hood and it is spectacular! The location in a truly rural setting is private and peaceful. The 26 acres are great to explore. It is full of birds and small wildlife, and keep your eyes open for the occasional deer. We also loved the many and varied hummingbirds that frequent a feeder on the deck. We brought our dog with us and it was a perfect setting to take him on walks and let him explore a little. We stayed for a week and after a couple of days could feel the pace slow and the breathing deepen. All in all it is an amazing place to relax in peace and quiet. We loved our time here!!

About the host

Hosted by Elizabeth and Greg Ferguson

Host profile image
We love the outdoors - especially hiking, fly fishing, and boating the Deschutes - and live and play between Vancouver and the Columbia River Gorge.

We bought our 26 acre property and a 40-ft RV about 8 years ago, sold our house in Vancouver, and moved up to the property to make our daydreams come true. We built this beautiful home - custom designed on a napkin (several napkins) over drinks. After a number of years living here full-time and enduring the commute, we realized our plans were a bit premature as we're not of retirement age yet and our careers require us to spend more time (than we'd like) in the city. So we bought another house in Vancouver, and now use this beautiful mountain retreat as our, and now your, vacation home.

We have two awesome dogs, Boo and Bro, that we are blessed to have in our lives. They love spending time at this property, and if you bring your dogs, we know they will too.

We are committed to providing you a great vacation experience. Let us know if you have any questions. We are just a phone call or text message away, and less than 2-hour drive should you need us onsite during your stay.

Why they chose this property

We love the pines, spectacular view, quiet still, and wildlife

What makes this property unique

The incredible Mountain View along with 26 acres, modern amenities, quiet setting, and dog friendly
