Plan a mountainside escape in this stately Parkdale vacation rental with a secluded location and great amenities, including a game room with a pool table. Come winter or summer, this idyllic Mt. Hood lodge is the perfect place to take a break from the daily grind with family or friends!
The rustic abode is nestled in nature, yet just six miles from museums and shopping in town. Explore the Mt. Hood National Forest by mountain bike or hiking boot in summer, or hit the slopes at Mt. Hood Meadows or Cooper Spur Mountain Resort by snowfall!
The log cabin-style home is timeless with handsome leather accents, a cascading rock fireplace, and modern amenities including WiFi and stainless steel appliances. Soak up the fresh mountain air on your spacious front deck or flip a juicy hamburger on the gas grill. A bistro table and private views of the trees make this outdoor space a perfect summer hangout.
Svendsen Lodge is cozy, providing accommodating amenities for groups of eight. Guests can stretch their legs across four bathrooms and three bedroom suites. The bedrooms are spacious, providing great natural lighting and hardwood accents.
One suite has a queen-size bed. A second room offers a queen bed and unique loft, while the third room is ideal for families offering a queen bed and two twin beds. You'll have convenience amenities like central AC and a washer/dryer to make everyone feel right at home.
Inside, enjoy social areas on the main level and private bedrooms upstairs. Warm your toes around the gas fireplace after a long day on the ski slopes or unwind with a family flick on the flat screen TV. Are little ones arguing over the remote? Svendsen Lodge offers a library of books and a regal game room complete with a pool table and media entertainment for non-stop family fun!
Whether you're hosting a holiday dinner or packing a summer picnic, the open-concept kitchen and dining room is ideal for large groups. Modern appliances, including a dishwasher, french door refrigerator, and a formal table for eight, will make planning and serving meals a breeze.
In spring and summer, the mountain is a wonderland of mushrooms and wildflowers! Hike the Frog Creek Trail or pick up a map from the Hood River Ranger District to find the perfect fishing spot. Learn about the history of the region at the Hutson House museum, then enjoy pizza and brews at the nearby Saw Tooth Roadhouse.
In winter, the region is a hot spot for all snow sports, including snowmobiling, Nordic skiing, snow shoeing, and alpine runs! At Mt. Hood Meadows you can enjoy breakfast with Santa, then hit the slopes or watch and epic rail jam. Cooper Spur Mountain Resort boasts 50 acres of beginner and intermediate level terrain and even snow tubing!
This home is a perfect combination of backwoods relaxation and action-packed outdoor recreation. Get your group together for an intimate stay on the mountain!
We truly want you to enjoy your time and make some wonderful memories with your group. That being said, this is not a party or gathering house for groups that can't control their noise levels. We have relationships with all of our neighbors who have our direct contact information. Quiet time is 10:00 pm to 8:00 am. Please stay indoors during this time, keep the windows and doors closed and keep the volume to an enjoyable but reasonable level. If it is loud enough to be heard outside in these conditions, it is too loud for you to remain our guest. This property includes a noise alert monitoring system in order to ensure that neighborhood noise levels are respected. Again, please realize we want every group to enjoy their time, laugh, have fun and make memories. These devices are only to ensure noise levels don't reach a threshold that bothers our neighbors. Also, please note there is no electronic video surveillance monitoring pools or spas, or on the interior of the house.
