Basecamp - Rhododendron, OR

Make your next group getaway one to remember at this waterfront lodge on the banks of Hackett Creek. It's an incredible space for a reunion, a holiday, or a trip with multiple families, offering a private hot tub, a deck among the evergreens, and a converted garage rec room.

Natural wood and light are constants throughout the house, which is spread out across two levels. There are many spots to sit down and relax after a day spent hiking or skiing, including a sectional sofa warmed by an electric wood stove in the living room and plush couches in the dedicated media room. The gourmet kitchen is a natural gathering space as well, offering stainless steel appliances, two ovens, an island with a gas range and bar seats for three, and a window-lined dining area with both a circular table and an expansive farm table with views of the surrounding woods.

The outdoor spaces are equally special, including a deck that was built around the trunks of several towering fir trees. You can bring your meals outside to the deck or to the picnic tables at the creek's edge before capping the evening with a soak in the hot tub and stories around the firepit.

There's no shortage of entertainment in the converted garage rec room - an indoor/outdoor space where you can play Ping-Pong, foosball, cornhole, and basketball while projecting a favorite movie on the wall.

At night, you'll find one bedroom on the first floor and the other five bedrooms upstairs. The home has three main suites upstairs, with two private baths and one dual-access bath. Additional amenities include free WiFi throughout the house, two washers/dryers for your laundry needs, and a newly added treadmill to help you stick to your workout routine.

This charming house sits on nearly 12 acres in a quiet, park-like setting next to Hackett Creek. You'll be right at the edge of Mt. Hood National Forest and six miles west of the heart of Rhododendron. If you follow Mt. Hood Highway, you can easily reach the mountain's hiking trails and ski resorts, with Mt. Hood Skibowl 15 miles east, Timberline Lodge 21 miles east, and Mt. Hood Meadows 26 miles east.
