This is a beautiful, fully equipped guest cottage on an amazing property! It has a queen bed in a bedroom, full bath, washer & dryer, kitchenette, a small living room area (with a fold-out sofa bed) & a spiral staircase to an additional sleeping loft. 1/2 hour to skiing in winter, Mt. Hood recreation. Property is great for families!

The space
This cottage sits on our 20-acre property at the base of Mt. Hood (about an hour east off downtown Portland - a great city to explore!). We are 30 minutes west of Ski Bowl and the Mt. Hood National Forrest. The cottage is approximately 300 square feet, with a small covered porch and fireplace. Private bedroom with full bed, living room with a wood spiral staircase up to a sleeping loft (spiral staircase is not appropriate for small children), a kitchenette with toaster oven, microwave, coffee maker and mini refrigerator. There also is a outdoor grill with side burner on the deck. A full bath with the added bonus of a washer/dryer. Great for after a day of travel or playing in the outdoors.
Also on the property (and AirBnB) is our Magical Treehouse, if you are feeling adventurous! One of the best parts of staying in the cottage is access to our amazing property. You will feel like you have your own park! See Guest Access.

Guest access
Our 20-acre property has trails all over winding through beautiful trees. There are springs on the property, several which feed our 1 acre pond. The pond has a small island, kayaks and a ZIP LINE for adventurous folks that want to jump in and add to their experience! The pond is great for swimming, is stocked with trout (feeding but no fishing), and is fun to paddle around in. There is a lovely garden (in the summer) and a row boat for a quiet afternoon. Outdoor activities (depending on weather) can include hiking around on the trails, disc golf, carpet-ball, horseshoes, a pendulum swing, and basketball. Additionally, there is a Magical Treehouse (also listed with AirBnB) on the property.

Other things to note
•PLEASE NOTE: We have two family dogs, easy going labradors. One Chocolate (about 85 pounds) one Yellow (about 75 pounds). The dogs are generally home and loose on the property. They are very friendly, love chasing balls and going on walks around the property on our trails. If you are not comfortable interacting with these dogs, this is not appropriate listing for you.
Like most labs, they enjoy interacting with new people. They are fun to place fetch with, and they love to dive into the pond to retrieve balls!. They are super friendly (maybe sometimes too much so). We have no problem with you saying "no" to them or shooing them away. They are young (both under two) and are still learning socialization. If anyone in your group is uncomfortable with large dogs, this is NOT a good match for you. This is Woody and Jessie's home. If you like dogs, you will enjoy our furry friends!

If you wish to have more than the allotted 4 people; you can request our Glamping Tent (which sleeps two) or our Pond Cottage (much like a Yurt - also sleeps two) or our Tentsile (it is tent suspended in the trees), or consider also also renting our Mt. Hood Magical Treehouse (also 4 person max).

•Internet note: we are located in a fairly remote location, so don't expect internet connectivity. The only internet access you’ll likely have is your own cell phone (service is heavily dependent on carrier). We recommend not counting on it.

-We are a working Small Woodlands Tree Farm. As such there is occasional tractor, chainsaw and milling going on in the woods.

-We have chickens and ducks. You may be able to hear their quacking and crowing from time to time, we are happy to share fresh eggs when they are available.

We love our animals, and understand you love yours too! But we have a strict "no pets policy" for bringing additional animals on the property.

Neighborhood highlights

We are mid-way between Sandy and Welches on the flanks of Mt. Hood. We are six miles from town (Sandy), in a quiet setting. All neighbors have acreage properties. The area is very forested and beautiful, the cottage and private home sit on about two acres around the pond, and are out from under the trees, so there is plenty of light. There are many activities, so come ready to play or to rest... or both!

My work: Therapist
My husband Dave and I are both psychotherapists. We have our practice in Sandy, Oregon, about an hour out of Portland, Oregon. We live at the base of Mt. Hood on a beautiful 20-acre property (We list our Treehouse and Guest Cottage on Airbnb). We love the outdoors and we LOVE to travel. I enjoy gardening, skiing, hiking, tennis and eating at fun restaurants. My husband shares those interests as well as doing projects on our property. He has built our home, our guest cottage and our 16' x 16' Treehouse (complete with electricity and water - he has a very playful streak.) Our children are grown and launched, and now we enjoy sharing the property with AirBnB friends. You can check out our Airbnb to get a more visual sense of us. Also you can look at our professional business side at website: River Ridge Counseling in Sandy Oregon. Additionally the Tree House has it's own webpage, simply google Mt. Hood Tree House.
