About this property

Wallace Cottage! Charming Vintage Cottage, Fireplace, Deck, BBQ, Large Yard

Wallace Cottage - Meredith Lodging

A beautifully restored 1939 vintage cabin will take you back in time to the early days of vacation retreats at Mt Hood. Get comfortable in the cozy and warm living room by the original rock fireplace with a woodstove insert. Cook meals in the modern and updated kitchen with new stainless appliances. You will love the big yard for summer fun with a sunny lawn and a shaded covered porch surrounded by tall old-growth Douglas fir trees.

The two bedrooms are upstairs with a queen bed in one and a double bed in the second bedroom. Recline with a good book in the reading nook at the top of the stairs in-between the two bedrooms. The bathroom downstairs is fully remodeled with a tub/shower enclosure, modern vanity and warm views of the backyard. The updated mudroom includes full-sized front-loading washer and dryer.

Grill on the gas BBQ year-round under the covered front porch. Listen to the soothing water feature and pond in the front yard, while you dine alfresco at the outdoor dining table. Kids will have fun in the play structure and running around the large lawn in the backyard. You can warm up around the 3-season firepit, too. The Wallace Cottage is close to Wildwood Recreation Site, Sandy Ridge Mountain Bike Trails and Mt Hood National Forest hiking trails. The Wallace Cottage is next door to the Bridlewood Cabin for 2 families or couples traveling together.

mildew and cobwebs
My partner and I had been looking forward to staying here for the past month, unfortunately as soon as we arrived, our hopes for a lovely weekend away were gone. Immediately as we walked in we were struck with a very strong moldy odor. We tried opening all the windows to air the place out, but as we explored more of the cabin we only became more convinced that we should leave immediately. Every single corner in the home and many of the walls were absolutely filled with thick cobwebs, especially the two rooms upstairs. In the kitchen water damage was immediately apparent on many of the ceiling and wall planks and the living room had a large patch of mold growing on the ceiling. Aside from the lack of cleanliness, this place does have a creepy vibe to it as other reviews have stated. The staircase especially which looks straight out of a horror movie. After trying to air the cottage out unsucessfully we both had severe headaches from the moldy smell, we decided it wouldn't be safe to stay and left before even being able to load our luggage in. For a place that states they have professional cleaners this cottage seems to have been dangerously disregarded for quite some time. Our worst VRBO experience by far.

Black Carpenter Ants
We were told we couldn’t have early check in because of other guests they needed the whole time to clean. I’m not sure what they cleaned kitchen I had to clean everything and the spiderwebs were so think on everything! Definitely not what the pictures showed. The owner was there when we got in cutting boards for an add on next door put trash in our trash left out all his trash in the front so we had to look at the whole time. But, the reason why we had to leave was because of the big black carpenter ants that were all over in the inside of the house. On the curtains in the beds it was a lot very overwhelming. We lost time on our vacation then had to move to another place. I’m currently in the middle of trying to get my money back for my nights I wasn’t there. I was in town for 10 days lots of places to stay and I had lots of choices I choose here because we wanted relaxing nights and enjoyable down time. We got nothing of the short! Being a property owner myself I would never rent anything that was in the shape and the infection this place has! Nor would I be working on an add on to the property instead of fixing what is already broken. Hopefully they make good decisions and do the right thing!

Quiet cottage in Mt. Hood neighboorhood.
It was veey quiet and clean and just the right size for the whole family. The club house unfortunately was locked so my kids couldnt play inside but they loved the horse shoes and deck. It was difficult to find as the gps points to the oposite side of the property and there are two Wallace aves. The eaaiest way in is to stay on the main road, turn left on Mountain Air and the left on wallace. It is in a neighboorhood and people do live there but there is enough woodland around to kake you feel secluded. Overall great place.

Wonderful and Cozy Stay
Our family had a great time at this property. It was slightly difficult to find it when we arrived as the Google map takes you to a parallel street but once we made it we had a great time. The property has everything we needed.

Cozy Cottage for a Lazy Weekend
My partner and I were looking to get out of the city and enjoy a quiet wilderness setting, and sit by a campfire in the snow. This spot was perfect for that. The cabin is cozy with a rustic feel, but not lacking in any modern amenities, and plenty of space. Recommend highly we may return soon

Secluded for Sure
The pictures didn't do justice for the feel of the cabin. It was quite creepy. Spiderwebs everywhere, and inside was dark, although the many lights did help. I did want to be in nature, but this was too much for me. The entry and finding this place was kind of bothersome. I think if there were others the feel wouldn't have been so creepy. The amenities provided were excellent though.

Winter Cabin Weekend
Our family of 4 loved our wkd stay at Wallace Cottage. It's a great cabin that keeps the cabin feel, yet has all the modern appliances you need for a weekend. The yard, play structure and outside spaces were a nice bonus.

Cute, clean, not so private.
Adorable and clean cottage. Not super private and in the woods, but a nice getaway near Mt. Hood. I would totally stay here again. Just note that all the bedrooms are upstairs and the bathroom is downstairs in case you need a potty trip in the middle of the night. Also, the neighbors are very close and can see into the bedrooms and main rooms due to the see-through Roman sades (not exactly private at night or when changing clothes). Hopefully, they will upgrade the shades. Also, bring your own salt and pepper.

Perfect spot for Mt Hood skiing
Charming cabin in a quiet area—It was perfect for spring skiing up at Mt Hood. The kitchen was very well equipped and the place was very clean. The rental company was very pleasant and easy to work with.

Charming and cozy retreat
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We thoroughly enjoyed our time at the Wallace Cottage. It was very comfortable - we felt transported to another time and didn't want to leave! Perfect balance of updated amenities (in kitchen and bathroom) while keeping the charm of a rustic cabin. There are a lot of neighbors close by, but it didn't get in the way of feeling secluded from the outside world.
