Spectacular! We really enjoyed our visit. Photos on website were very accurate. Host/manager was amazing at communication, very fast. The tree vanity in downstairs bathroom was amazing. Loved the bedding and beds were comfy. Hot tub felt great after our hike. Would definitely stay again at this property. Loved the swing too! Property is in great location where surrounding properties face in other directions so feels very private.

We're thrilled to hear that you had such a spectacular visit, Christopher! It’s wonderful to know that the photos matched your experience and that our communication met your expectations. The tree vanity in the downstairs bathroom is indeed a unique touch, and we’re glad you found the bedding and beds comfy. After a hike, there's nothing quite like soaking in the hot tub, and we’re delighted it added to your relaxation. The swing is a favorite spot for many of our guests, and we’re glad you enjoyed it too. We appreciate your kind words about the property’s location and privacy. We would love to welcome you back for another stay whenever you're ready!

The fun started when our three hour Google Maps trip turned into over five hours. We figured we looked wrong the first time, but after the map took us through extreme one lane only off road in the deep woods going over a mountain we were stumped, kids were scared to death, seriously if I didn’t have an extremely capable off road truck, any other vehicle would of been ruined or not capable of making the trip. The next day we were able to investigate in the daylight and realize someone shut down the road as “locals only” on Google and that extra couple hours off road would have been three minutes of regular driving. Even sitting in front of the house the next day, Google wanted to take us two Hr around to get to the cabin we were literally sitting in front of. As far as the cabin, don’t let the pictures fool you, it’s a cabin, you will be greeted with bats and spiders, weird beetles at night, and the sounds of large rats running through the walls and ceilings. The cabin looks amazing on the photos, maybe it’s my fault for thinking it was going to be less cabin feeling. Pros- beds/showersCons - dirty floors/kitchen/applainces, no spare kitchen trash bags, no wood for the fire as listed, not private like the pictures make it seem, terrible lighting, probably to hide the bad cleaning job, fire alarm hanging open off the ceiling, and the final straw was a camera on the front of the cabin which was not listed at all, which is sketchy and against the rules. We left early.

Jason, we appreciate you sharing your experience with us, even though it sounds like your journey to the cabin was quite an adventure. We understand how frustrating it can be when navigation leads you astray, especially with kids in the car. We’re sorry to hear that the road conditions added to your stress. Regarding your stay at Sycamore Lodge, we genuinely regret that the cabin did not meet your expectations. We strive to provide a clean and comfortable environment, and it’s disappointing to hear that the floors and kitchen were not up to standard. Your feedback about the firewood and the lighting is valuable, and we will certainly look into these details to ensure future guests have a better experience. We also want to clarify that the camera is in place for security purposes, and we appreciate your understanding of that policy. We take guest privacy seriously, and we’re sorry if this caused any discomfort during your stay. Thank you for bringing these issues to our attention. We hope you might consider giving us another chance in the future, as we would love the opportunity to provide you with a more enjoyable experience.

The house was perfect with plenty of amenities and space for the 6 of us. The house definitely deserves 5 star's, VRBO on the other hand deserves 2 stars for extremely poor communication.

Close to Mount Hood and the house is warm and charming. We gathered with our adult children and found the set up to work excellent.

Beautiful Cabin & Perfect location for Mt. Hood boarding

Sycamore Lodge continues to stun. This is our second time staying at the Property and we felt right at home. The cabin is gorgeous, the location is perfect for a day on Mt.
