A wonderful place close to Mt. Hood

The kitchen is well stocked. We cooked our breakfast and dinner without buying any seasonings. The space is so big for our party (3 adults 2 teens). Everyone had a good rest after skiing at Mt. Hood.

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?
