Perfect Mt Hood Family Rental

WOW. Gorgeous townhouse right in the heart of Government Camp, Oregon! The checkin process was seamless, the home was spotless and stocked with all the comforts of home. There’s plenty of room for families to spread out, our kids LOVED their bunk room, and the ping pong table was perfect for evening tourneys. there were dozens of board games as well, perfect for entertaining the kids when we weren’t on the slopes. If that wasn't enough, the community pool and hot tubs were another highlight and even open for use during the snowstorm! As far as the location, if you’re doing anything on Mt Hood, whether in Govy, Timberline, Meadows or anywhere between, this cabin is perfectly located. We can’t wait to return!! Great location, gorgeous and clean unit, fantastic hosts—what more could you need?

Teenage Boys Everywhere!

It was great! The condo was clean, well-equipped and well-appointed. I was able to cook for a gaggle for teenage boys with no problem and it was a joy to have them all sit down and eat together at the dining room table. The couch was huge and the master was in the perfect spot to not have to hear all those boys. Perfection.

A Nice Condo

We enjoyed our stay in this condo in Government Camp. It was clean and comfortable, and we enjoyed the recreation facilities (pool and sauna). We liked that it was close to skiing and other mountain recreation. I would recommend Collin’s Lake and this condo. We had a few messages from the owner that will cause me to look at different options in the same neighborhood for our next visit. First, there was an extra up-charge after our original booking because they said they hadn’t updated their prices in VRBO. It wasn’t too substantial, so I paid it and planned to enjoy my stay and not mention it in my review. Then, after our stay I received a text message that they were upset that we parked 2 cars in the garage. This was confusing because their check-in directions listed that as an option. It is winter time with snowy weather and the garage would have needed swept, which would take more housekeeping time, but I don’t know what I could have done about this to appease the owners. They never wrote a reply to my reply (I guess I’ll see that in their review of me after I submit this review?)
