Bright and sunny Salmon River Condo, Fireplace, BBQ, Dog-Friendly

Salmon River Condo #5 - Meredith Lodging

The Salmon River Condo is a bright and sunny condo along the Salmon River creating a quiet, private setting. This comfortable home with riverfront and golf course views offers easy access to all mountain recreation and activities at a great value. If you are active and like to explore all day, this is the perfect place for you to make your base camp. You will have all of the comforts of home including streaming TV and wifi.

This spacious 1-bedroom, 2-bathroom condo feels more like a cabin with wood floors, rock fireplace and cedar accents. The breezes flowing through the river-viewing back deck are comfortable for reading a book or enjoying a glass of wine. Or you can take a walk along the path that parallels the Salmon River just steps from the condo.

The fully equipped kitchen is set up to prepare a full meal that you can enjoy at the dining table or on the deck. Or grill dinner on the gas BBQ and make it a picnic on the riverside picnic table. Sip a glass of wine at the riverside picnic table and watch the birds soaring overhead. During the evenings, you will want to cozy up in front of a roaring fire in the fireplace. This quiet setting will leave you relaxed and rejuvenated after your Mt Hood vacation. Your dog is welcome to join you at the Salmon River Condo for an additional charge.

Very nice condo in a quiet community. The condo itself was clean and well maintained. The community has a pool and a sauna (no hot tub). There's a grocery store and restaurants nearby, if needed. Host company is responsive and easy to contact.

Bed is moderately comfortable. Could use a foam topper. Pictures don’t actually show the unit provided. WiFi equipment flashing lights are out exposed to bedroom. This can be an issue for light sensitive sleeping.Easy walk to nearby golf course clubhouse.

Thank you for the review and for noting that the location worked well for you. I’m sorry the mattress wasn’t as comfortable as you’d hoped; I’ll share your suggestion about adding a foam topper with our team for consideration. We do capture this exact unit in the listing photos, but please let us know what you found inaccurate so we can look into your concerns right away. We very much appreciate your feedback, thank you.

The place is comfortable except I thought the bed was to hard and hard for me to sleep comfortably. The housekeeper needs to pay more attention to cleaning the floors, there was stuff swept into the corners of the bedroom door way and the kitchen mat wasn’t moved and swept around, there was dried up food on the mat along the baseboard.

Thank you for the review and for letting us know you had a mostly comfortable stay! I'm sorry the mattress felt too firm and made sleeping difficult. I also apologize for the missed spots on the floors and the condition of the kitchen mat — that falls short of our standards. I’ve shared your feedback with housekeeping so they can tighten their checklist and address the corners and mats. We will also look into adding a mattress topper. Thank you for letting us know — your comments help us improve, and we hope to welcome you back.

Thank you for noting that much of your stay went well. I'm so sorry the television setup kept you from enjoying shows. I’ll have our team inspect the TV and add clear, step-by-step guidance to the guest information so this doesn’t happen again. We appreciate the feedback and hope to welcome you back for a smoother experience.

Great comfortable place with all the amenities, 35 minutes to Mt Meadows ski lodge.

Comfortable place and nice details including the fire place setup ready. Instructions should be more summarized in the chat when the reservation begins. Sometimes it’s hard to look for details in the website. 5 stars to this place.

Wrong code to enter. Had to call and get new code. The pool and trash codes didn't work. Had to get code from manager and he said to just use his code for pool. Internet did not work. Had to reboot the modem every day. Called to tell them twice and they never did anything about it . Unit was very dated and the Arcadia door locked with a stick and you could hardly open it . Really needs to be updated. The best thing was the location. Thank you.

Thank you for your feedback, Jacque. We’re glad you enjoyed the location, but we’re sorry to hear about the challenges you experienced with access codes, the internet, and the condition of the unit. That’s certainly not the smooth experience we want for our guests. We’ll be reviewing the internet reliability, door functionality, and property updates with our local team to improve moving forward. Your comments are appreciated, and we thank you for taking the time to share them.

What a let down.

We paid for three nights but didn't stay one night. The code given to us did not work, and yes, we followed the instructions. When we sent a text to the support number, they could only tell us the same instructions from the email. They told us that each lock was different, so they could only give us basic information. That was not helpful! We found a number for the "onsight" manager, and he gave us a code that allowed us to get inside. Once inside, we found the condo to be almost 80º, and the AC compressor was paused and still had an hour before it would come on. The pictures give the impression this property opens up to the creek. It does not. The complex is along the creek, but this property is not. It's also a smoker's paradise. They even supply the ashtrays. I haven't seen an ashtray since the 90's. If you've been around smokers, you know that smell does not come out of fabric easily. So, you guessed it, the bed smelled like cigarette smoke. For these reasons and more, we didn't even unpack. We loaded up the car and drove home. This was supposed to be our summer blowout, but was a summer bust. I would not recommend this property to anyone.

Hi Bobby. We are sorry to hear you had issues entering the condo and encountered several inconveniences once inside. Had we been notified, we would have gladly sent our housekeeping or maintenance team over to address your immediate needs or concerns. We have shared your feedback with our local team, and requested they investigate/address any cigarette smells. If we are lucky to host you in the future, please feel free to contact our friendly and knowledgable reservations team, as they can answer any questions you have about a rental (location, amenities, etc.) pre-booking. We do hope we have the opportunity to provide you with a better stay in the future.

Best part was we were granted a late checkout; we dropped the key off at 3:30, but we could've stayed longer; the office staff was so laid back & told us to take our time & glad we enjoyed ourselves. We will definitely make this a yearly visit, if not more. :)

Comfortable quiet condo

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Very professional helpful people in the rental office. Property was well maintained outside, convenient, unit generally very clean, older appearing furniture seeming a bit dated but very comfortable, comfortable bed. Kitchen well equipped and easy to cook in. Good layout and size of unit, particularly for a couple or maybe +1( bedroom has king and single bed.) Not sure fireplace wood completely dry as did not burn particularly well but both kindling and fire started cubes provided which was appreciated. Partial view of river through greenery to one side of condo with other views across green & bushes/ trees to other units. Close to a walking path to river so some people walking dogs and could look into unit so not completely private but easy to close or partially close blinds if privacy preferred. Easy drive up to Timberline and nearby walks and hikes. Different restaurant possibilities ( ate at Rendevous, coffee shop across their parking lot friendly/good coffee) Overall comfortable unit that provided the desired peace and quiet desired along with convenience of amenities and access to activities.

We even got 2 feet of snow to enjoy - but recommend having a snow shovel handy to dig clear a path for the car. ;-)

salmon creek condo

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We like the condo very much. Guest bath could use a refresh and some better light nobody likes a dark bathroom, new toilet. Otherwise very comfortable and nice feeling in the condo. Glad that the condo person contacted us day of our stay to make sure we had directions. Would prefer to just have a lock box on condo and go straight to unit not have to find two places. Folks should know that it is prohibited to go in the creek. I think that is not up to the condo to control or limt but rather just state creek use is not under oversight of condo and go at your own risk.

Lovely condo and environment; Unfriendly neighbors

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The staff at rental office were great! Thanks Fay!The condo was lovely! The kind bed mattress was soft, saggy, lumpy. Had a hard time finding blankets and the sheets for the fold out bed. But, the whole experience was clouded by the "nosy" neighbors who seemed to be watching our every move. They called us at least 5 times to tell us where and where not our car should be parked and what was the strange car(my son came to visit for the afternoon). They even called your office. If parking was crowded, no spaces I could understand but really! Why can't the spaces be labeled with the number of the condo!
