Relaxing adult getaway
Gorgeous location is mostly private, possibly visible by only one neighbor. The hot tub works great, but a shelter/gazebo around the hot tub would have been nice. The utilization of space was good in the house. One of the bedrooms upstairs is a loft that overlooks the living room below. People in that loft bedroom will hear activity below until everyone else has gone to bed, too. Very spacious parking can easily accommodate larger vehicles. Overall, we would definitely recommend this property. Very clean, very nice to spend a relaxing weekend in.

Loved our stay here. The view from upstairs was beautiful, there is a river that’s a short walk from the house that was awesome. We could hear the rushing water from the house. Kitchen area was roomy, we had a great stay. Thank you for sharing your home.

Ski weekend
Stones Throw is a very comfortable well located property. Very quite and peaceful, close proximity to skiing. We especially enjoyed the hot tub after a day of skiing. Kitchen had almost everything you would need. Seasonings for cooking were a bit sparse. No salt and barely any pepper. Time to restock! Bed in the downstairs bedroom was too hard for me! Family upstairs said theirs was fine. While we were planning on bringing our dogs along, plans changed and we did not bring them. Asked for a refund on the pet fee, so far no response. Overall, we had a lovely time! Would stay here again.

A very nice property in a good location, nestled in the woods with close proximity to Mt Hood. Only disappointment was that the hot tub needed chlorine and shock oxidizer which were not available and were not delivered after calling VRBO.

Welches in the river
We have stayed at this location before, because it is beautiful property, surrounded by tall, magnificent tree, and a short walk down to the Sandy River. The home is a bit dated, but spacious, and fulfilled all our needs, except for a big problem watching streaming services on TV!!! Froze up every night, which was a huge drag when wanting to unwind together after a long day of skiing and hiking

Not my idea of a vacation
Dirty house and a confusing layout with a wonderful back deck Mice and mice dropping all over the house. Called first thing in the morning to have someone come take care of the mice and after someone showed up to set traps. That we had to clean and rest during our visit. Had to clean the rocks and debris and put in a shock before we could use the hot tub. The floor are stained and dirty and it rained during our visit and the window in the dining room leaked so bad that it soaked the items on the table. The hall bathroom door was difficult to close with the washing machine sticking out. Went to use the downstairs shower, had to clean away the nats that were flying around first. I can say the best part of this house was sitting on the back porch. It was so quiet and wonderful listening to the wildlife

Very home like
Our group usually camps 3 or 4 times during the summer. We decided to try out a cabin this year. And we will be making this an annual summer thing. The cabin was great. Very roomy. Short walk to the river was nice. Beds were all comfortable. And the hot tub was very relaxing with the little stream running by it. The manager came out and helped fix the ac right away since it wouldn't go lower then 72 and the temps were in the high 90's while we were there. Housekeeping dropped off dishwasher pods when I asked. Wish there were some Tupperware bowls to store leftovers a little better for the week. All around it was a great week away!

Lady's Special Time
We were 3 ladies celebrating a very special birthday. First thing we did after arriving Friday afternoon at the house and before unpacking was to explore the beautiful surrounding with the little waterfall by the back deck. We went on the trail to the river right away and enjoyed the water's sound. Back to the house we explored every room. Everything was just as described, spacious, quiet and tasteful furnished. The kitchen had everything you would need. Unfortunately we were not able to use the first floor shower since they had put in a new floor. A sign said to not use it until Sunday, so that was not something we had expected. There was the upstairs bathroom with a shower but unfortunately that shower did not work either. So we called maintenance and they were quick to solve the problem. By the time we came come from a few hours trip everything was fixed. So thank you to the maintenance person! The weather was nice so we didn't have to use the fireplace in the living room. We saw plenty of firewood stacked outside just in case and we added more that we had brought with us. We like to sleep in a cool bedroom so for the night we opened all the upstairs windows to cool the rooms. All in all we had a great time, enjoyed each others company and our plan is to come back at another time. We definitively recommend this place!

Interesting but beautiful
The house and location are beautiful and secluded. I especially loved the little stream near the hot tub and fire. The house was unique and definitely like any other, I do wish that there was more explanation to how things worked like the upstairs tub and shower. The manual was pretty vague for explanations, I will say. Getting in contact with the host was incredibly difficult especially when we had power go out and when we lost the code to the house. Overall, the stay was pleasant I would just ask the host to be more attentive to the guests and have more detailed explanations for how things in the house worked.

Stone throw
House was clean upon arriving. Location and views are beautiful! The little creek running behind hot tub was so nice! The river was nice, but stinky like sewage. The hot tub was stinky and was provided 2 small cups of shock. The beds were soooo cozy! The kitchen was well stocked even with some tea and condiments. The spice rack was stocked and very useful. The leather couch in living room was broke and the reclining part wouldn’t go back into itself like it should and made it hard to get up. The stairs are very steep, kids had a blast going down them on their bottoms 😁 there unfortunately was no firewood stocked or even available unless you wanted to buy some. Unfortunately we couldn’t use from outside it was wet. Upstairs bathroom is cute but tub is old and jets are super loud. Outside the decks are huge! Very nice piece of property and private away from neighbors. Shower down stairs is awkward due to home being A frame. Upon checkout house keeping was waiting in car that was kinda rude. All in all it was a good time and nice stay.

Perfect getaway for a few
The property is everything in the listing. It’s a big property and lots of room between the neighbors. All the good reviews are correct. One review mentioned a lack of cookware, this has been updated. We had everything we needed to prepare and cook the food. If you want to bring music, bring a jack to plug into an amp. It’s the only downside to the AV system. Great hot tub perfect Sandy beach at the river. I will return summer and winter!

Family Vacation
Reserved this vacation home for a long weekend with family and grandkids. Size and beds were a good fit. Pretty clean, but could be updated. One sofa recliner was in bad shape and broken down. TV in living rm downstairs did not work properly. Beds were comfy. Kitchen pretty well stocked with plates etc. Need to provide your own seasonings, oil, etc. Large back deck was nice, especially the water feature. Hot tub was clean. The river was not too far to walk to and the kids loved it. Much to do in the area. Make sure to take the hike to Mirror Lake. Trillium Lake was also a lot of fun!

A Perfect Vacation Spot!
My friends and I rented this cabin and stayed for a few nights during an extended road trip and it was the perfect escape from the road we needed. It was also perfect for our first visit to Oregon. Being from Texas we marveled at all the gorgeous tall trees and the mountainous land around us and this cabin allowed us to enjoy that natural beauty throughout our stay. Especially since the creek was such a short walk away!
