The house was perfect for 5 family members who came from Boston for our nephew's wedding. It was a very comfortable place to come back to at the end of the day.
We enjoyed exploring the area and tried to take in as many sites as we could in 3 short days. The area is beautiful and now we know why our nephew has relocated here.
Have a great fall !

This vacation rental is perfect ! Well lit, spacious, and tastefully decorated. It has everything a family looking for a fun-filled and relaxing time will need- not to mention the expansive river and mountain views ! My kids loved having the downstairs all to themselves. I loved the upstairs room and the new appliances in the kitchen. The location is great, too. Just a short walkfrom downtown shops and cafes and close to many attractions. Hood River is the perfect spot fpr exploring the Columbia Gorge. The owner is very friendly and helpful. We'll definitely come back again.

We had a fantastic two weeks here and windsurfed every day except one !
The area around the River is fantastic and we enjoyed lots of views. I'm sure we will be back for more windsurfing.

This is the 24th year that we have come to Hood River, Oregon, to accompany our son and daughter for their passion of windsurfing. It is our custom to camp out for a week and not rent a house for a week.
Your house is very well appointed and makes holidaying a real pleasure. Whoever built and finished the house is to be complimented as the trim and cabinetry are done in good taste.
We are feeling right at home as we have the same leather furniture in our rec room at home.
We have enjoyed the WiFi system as we have four laptops between the families and our son is a computer programmer and works when the wind isn't blowing.

Countless hours were spent admiring the view from every room. Thank you for sharing this corner of heaven with us. Our vacation was filled with kayaking, touring the "Fruit Loop", and exploring the Gorge area. The house perfectly suited our needs. we look forward to our return.

From the guestbook :
For starters, I initially planned to rent the house for September....and to make a long story short, I've now been here 6 months . This is without a doubt the best house in the entire Columbia River Gorge area. The views of the Columbia River ( you can also see Mt Adams) are absolutely amazing, and the proximity to MT Hood means you're very close to some of the best Hiking/ Mountain Biking Trails anywhere in the country. The House is stocked with everything you can possibly think of and all the appliances are brand new. The 3 levels provide plenty of space for families and the surrounding neighborhood is extremely quiet.

Also, the downtown itself is only a few short blocks away, so due to its location you can pretty much walk anywhere.

My job is taking me out of the area, which is why I'm leaving, but please don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions or require additional information about the House. The bottom line is that if you're looking to stay in Hood river this is by far the best house so if it's available,
rent it immediately !

Cheers, Jason

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Gorge's Best Viewhouse. The home was new, spacious, bright and well appointed, with spectacular views of the Columbia River and Mt. Adams from the the main floor and master suite! A lovely walk to downtown for activities, shopping and dining! Plus the owner was very gracious and helpful! We'll definitely be back!

From the guestbook :
This rental exceeded all of our expectations. It is thoughtfully appointed and sparkling clean. The three-level layout - with the master upstairs, two bedrooms downstairs and the living area in between - was perfect for friends traveling together. The location is very quiet and convenient. I especially enjoyed walking to town and around the charming neighborhood.

And the name says it all. The view is truly spectacular..

We had five days of relaxation here. The house is very comfortable and kid friendly. We got to do some sight-seeing and hiking, but mostly we just lounged in the great room and read or played games. The view is absolutely mesmerizing ! We love Oregon ! We'll definitely come back again.

From the guestbook :
This is a fantastic rental unit!So comfortable & the views of the river & mts are great. For being in a neighborhood,it is extremely private.There were only 2 of us but it would be a perfect place for 2 couples or a family, plenty of room to move for all. The kitchen is a gourmet's dream,with every gadget/appliance provided. Don't cook every night though,because you can walk to downtown in minutes, where there are many great restaurants & shops. We love the place....do we have to go home?

Owners Response: In front of the home is a bird sanctuary - Well's Island, named after Doctor Wells who lived there in the mid 1900's, commuting by boat to treat his patients . It is now home to the eagles and a pair of ospreys, as well as flocks of ducks, herons, and numerous Canada Geese, who grace the sky over the Gorge with their shifting V formations of honking flight. I agree wholeheartedly and bought binoculars for the home after these people left. It's a great show !

Spectacular !!! We loved watching the osprey pair and the eagle as they fished and CAUGHT fish. An osprey flew right past our window with a fish one morning.
This place has been very comfortable and relaxing. We hate to leave, especially for the view !

We LOVE the view ! And the beds are very comfortable. I'm sleeping so well I slept all the way through a huge windstorm the other night .
The location is great- right in the middle of everything and so close to it all.
We all would recommend this place to everybody.

I've lived right next door for a little less than a year now. All I can say is WOW what a view! The townhome is very comfortable, with a huge master suite and gormet kitchen then dine on the deck and watch all of the kites in the summer. You've gotta stay here.
