      Great house, great location by the stream, secluded, awesome views. Kitchen was great, cooked many meals, dishes, flatware, utensils were all there. Recycling bins were also very nice for good stewardship. Only issue was the hot tub needed work but the staff was very friendly and attentive.

      Would recommend to anyone, great value!

      Sharon F from Camas, WA recommends this vacation rental

      My husband and I stayed in the master suite, which was GORGEOUS! However, we rented this with three other couples, and their accomadations were not so nice. There was only one other full bath, and one of the beds was not so comfortable. In rainy weather, not much place in a house that size to be by yourself, other than the master. Overall, beautiful home in a wonderful relaxing location. I would recommend it with these caveats.

      Everything was fantastic,however; I didn't get any wood for the fireplace. It was empty form day one. Not an important issue though. Better dusting was needed, cobwebs in many corners, A very lumpy mattress in master bedroom. It is time for the mattress
      to retire. Other than these minor problems, the place is amazing. Recommend it to all nature lovers who don't want to give up the modern day comforts. I will definitely go back next year, this time I will stay longer.

      • Manager Responded on 9/23/2011

        We are very happy to hear that you enjoyed your visit at the Island Park Retreat. We did not provide firewood during your visit because there was a forest fire in the Mt Hood National Forest and the Forest Service, Clackamas County and Hoodland Fire District all placed a burn ban in the area due to high temperatures, high wiinds and dry weather conditions. We communicated this information to our guests at check-in, so we aplogize if that was not clear. The fire is now 90% contained and the Forest Service is in wrap-up. We can now allow fires in fireplaces and woodstoves, however, outdoor fires are still banned. We look forward to your future visit.

      Barbara P from Tempe, AZ recommends this vacation rental

      This was my 5th time at a Mt Hood Vacation rental, 2nd time in this home. Although, I have enjoyed every home I have stayed in, Island Park Retreat is my favorite. The comfort of the home, the views from every window, the lush yard, and view and sounds
      of the river can't be beat. This vacation was spent as a "girls retreat" and everyone of the ladies could not say enough nice things about the home and it's location. Coffee by the river in the morning, spotting some salmon swimming upstream, and soaking in
      the jacuzzi just added to the ambience of the home. And of course the staff is top notch and go out of their way to make sure your stay is an enjoyable one. A special thanks to Emily for everything you did for us!!! See you next year!

      Jim W from Hermiston, OR recommends this vacation rental

      Location, location, location. Located on the end of an island. Setting could have not been better. Only complaint I have is we were driving by the office and wanted to stop by and pick up the key earlier then the 4PM time so as to save time and an extra trip. We were greeted with rudeness and inflexibility. Did not match the rental's beauty at all.

      • Manager Responded on 5/25/2011

        We agree the location of the Island Park Retreat is phenomenal. We try to allow early check-ins whenever possible, however, you arrived in our office at noon and check-in time is 4 PM. The home was not ready for your arrival at that time. Unfortunately, guests before you have asked for the key early, promising to not go to the home prior to check-in time, then sneak in anyway, forcing us to be strict about key distribution.

      I hosted our 13th annual "Boys Poker & Ski Weekend" at the Island Part Retreat and we had a great time. My five guest who flew in from all over the country loved the place. It is a beautiful riverside home that's close to Mt Hood's attractions and an easy 1 hr drive from PDX. Nice home, great secluded location, and an amazing hot tub spot right on the river. Oh, be very careful if you think that some hot tubbing followed by a quick dip into the river is a good idea... the water is shockingly COLD and quick in January!

      Walking into this home was like a bit of heaven. Views of the trees and/or rivers from most windows was so beautiful and peaceful. The hot tub made some of the ladies completely relaxed. Kitchen space and multiple ovens was fantastic as we did a lot of cooking. The locations was fabulous, even without the Mt. Hood view that I had hoped for. I really couldn't have asked for a better spot.

      Our book club spent a long weekend at Island Park retreat and it lived up to its name - had a lovely time, very secluded, just the sounds of the river. The kitchen and dining room were perfect for the gourmands amoung us. The sleeping accomodations worked for all 9 of us comfortably! Everything we needed was here. We have rented from Mt. Hood Vacation rentals before and this location was better than the last one. Thank you for a wonderful time.

      Had a last minute gathering. Relatives from Arizona, Seattle and Portland. Had a wonderful time and everyone was blown away with the house and location. Second stay with MT HOOD RENTALS first one Huckleberry Inn which was equally as impressive in its own unique way. Booking tonight for NEW YEARS at the Huckleberry. Praying for SNOW can not wait.
      Thanks again to the verrry helpful staff.

      The property was great - including the location - which couldn't be beat. It was just two of us so we didn't use 90% of the house. Jacuzzi was awesome at night. Nicely stocked with everything we needed. On

    • Great family vacation, Had a great time only draw back was that the hot tub wasn't ready for the first night and that the temp could not be controled and was very hot since the weather wasn't that cold, sould of been down 2 degrees

      Troy Cadwell V from Vancouver, WA does not recommend this vacation rental.

      After paying them over $700 for two nights, the management charged me an additional $125 fee for “Misuse of the Hot tub.” The Management charged this fee because they said they needed to clean the hot tub after we used it. Said we had too much lotion on our skin. The Management lied to me and said they had pictures of the hot tub before we moved in and it was crystal clear. They sent me the pictures and claimed it was taken the day we checked in. Well, the management isn’t very smart here (besides on how to charge additional fees for things that were of no fault of the guest) and I looked at the properties of the pictures and the photos were taken a week after we checked out. Everybody in our party followed their rules and guidelines of how to use the hot tub. Now the management wont even reply to emails. If you stay at these properties, make sure to not sign the hot tub agreement. They will charge you over $100 if you do. Then never respond to any emails. These guys are crooks and you should not stay at any of their properties.

      • Manager Responded on 3/10/2010

        We apologize that you were not completely pleased with your visit. We take pride in maintaining our hot tubs and keeping them in the correct balance with crystal clear water for each guest's visit. However, the hot tub water was green and murky after your visit. This could be due to a number of reasons including having lotions, hair gel, sweat or dirt on your body or even detergents and fabric softeners on swimsuits when you use the hot tub. Additionally, if beverages are consumed in the hot tub and they spill into the water, the chemical make-up will be changed. We do ask guests to sign the hot tub letter as it outlines your responsibilities as well as instructions when using the hot tub. We rarely find it neccessary to charge guests for mis-use of the hot tub; most do follow the instructions. We have replied to several of your emails and spoken with you on the phone several times, so I am not sure where the confusion lies.

      We rented the house for New Years and the only thing that was missing was the snow! But other than that everything was wonderful! The view and surroundings are breathtaking!

      • Manager Responded on 1/6/2010

        You should have been here last year! You could barely see the house for all of the snow. El Nino is playing tricks with the weather this winter.

      Wow what an amazing home and location! This property is so beautiful. The Salmon river is on 3 sides of the home and is breathtaking. Even in the wind and rain we enjoyed it. We were lucky to have a gloriously sunny day and the 5 of us took a ton of pictures as the colors of the leaves were changing and falling during our stay.

      The home is lovely and well layed out. The rooms all had comfortable beds and great river views. It was very clean and well cared for. Wonderful natural light in most of the house. We enjoyed fires in the roomy fireplace everyday.Plenty of wood was provided for us.

      If you want to plcae that is large enough for 5 friends or your family and yet feels very cosy this is the right place to stay!

        We are so pleased to hear how great your visit to the Island Park Retreat was for you. This home is truly located in one of the most stunning settings in the entire Mt Hood area. And we have had a really beautiful showing of fall colors this year.

      The location could not be beat - one of our absolute favorites. Everything was near perfect. The only change we would have asked for was another shower/bathroom upstairs for the price of the rental. We had five people sharing the one shower/bathroom upstairs. Otherwise it was awesome - thanks again for your excellent customer service.

      a guest from Honolulu, HI recommends this vacation rental

      The house was beautiful but a lot of space was wasted in the master bedroom and bath. The smaller bedroom down stairs lacked a closet and the half bath was on the other side of the house but the double sink was convenient. Our party of seven enjoyed eating together in the formal dining room but the placemats could be replaced. Relaxing in the living room was a challenge because of the limited seating. One person watched TV from behind the wet bar and there was no space to lounge.
      The property's location was gorgeous and had us wishing to revisit in the summer. The management staff was very helpful and suggested places for us sightsee and have dinner. Overall, we enjoyed our stay at the house!

      • Manager Responded on 5/28/2009

        Good news!! The living room furniture has been updated, there are now 2 full-size comfy sofas and 2 easy chairs, so the entire group can enjoy the fireplace or watch TV together.

      we enjoyed the space that the house had to offer. We would have loved it more if the beds were more comfortable. Also, the living space where we spent most our time was not conducive to an intimate evening with friends. Maybe another love seat or sofa would be better than the chairs and the carpet that kept bunching up.

      It was unusual that we were unable to close the shades/blinds in the bedrooms...the cords were locked up in strategic knots and it was uncomfortable and kind of spooky) for us.

      Love the house have stayed in house before but the house is lacking living room furniture for sitting and relaxing. for a house that is for 10 plus people it does not have alot of furniture. Also needs more towels and blankets. Also I would let famlies know if they are supposed to bring there own toilet paper, soap and various other things. Just not alot of that available. Our family has rented from you company several times. Have always loved the houses we have stayed in and always had a good experience. thank you for making our holidays a special time.

        Hi Bernadette-We usually do proved enough TP and other supplies for your rental. My guess is that with 10 people for 4 nights, there just wasn't quite enough of those items. Every home has 2 blankets for each bed. We will do a recount at this home to be sure there are enough. Also, there should have been 2 bath towels and 1 hot tub towel for each person for your visit, as well as wash cloths and multiple hand towels. Next time if there are not enought towels, please contact us during your visit and we will bring you more.

      As a group of eight adults we found the Retreat to be a beautiful, spacious home in which to enjoy each other and local spots of interest. Our only comments would be that more furniture (chairs, dressers, places to hang clothes) should be made available in the bedrooms.
