Rhododendron, Oregon
You will have a quiet, relaxing vacation at the Rapid River Retreat, one of our most popular vacation rentals. Sit by the Sandy River with your morning coffee or a glass of wine in the afternoon and see and hear the Sandy River rushing by. With the west-facing backyard, you will soak in lots of afternoon sunshine while grilling dinner on the Weber gas BBQ. After dinner roast marshmallows and tell tall tales gathered around the firepit. The private, outdoor hot tub next to the river will cap off a day of fun and an evening of relaxation.
The vaulted great room is perfect for a gathering of friends and family who like to cook with the spacious open kitchen and second prep area with its own sink. You can sit around the large dining table for dinner and enjoy the river and mountain views through the floor-to-ceiling picture windows. The wood-burning fireplace warms the home and adds to the mountain lodge ambiance.
This home is perfectly suited for three couples or a small family with three bedrooms (1 king, 2 queens) accommodating up to 6 guests. There are two full bathrooms, one upstairs and one downstairs. Each bedroom looks out over the Sandy River and the Cascade foothills in the background adding to the relaxing atmosphere.
The kids will love adventuring in the forest surrounding the Rapid River Retreat as well as finding fun places to explore throughout the Villages of Mt Hood. Your dog will be happy that you brought him along on this getaway retreat with the river to play in and the gated, dead-end road for taking long walks. The national forest just across the street from the cabin is a perfect place for your dog to explore and run.

All cleaning policies meet or exceed CDC standards and recommendations. Our team wears new masks, gloves and shoes covers each time they enter home to prepare it for a new stay. We clean and disinfect all hard surfaces and high-touch items such as appliance handles, light switches, door knobs, remote controls, etc. We also clean and disinfect all dishes/glassware, silverware, bedding, towels and other linens as well as tubs and toilets. Meredith Lodging has added the extra measure of a pre-check-in inspection to make sure all of our cleaning and disinfecting procedures are complete and to our standard before you arrive.
Once it passes inspection, your home sits empty until you arrive for your contact-free check-in. Additionally, if your home features a private hot tub, rest assured it is disinfected, treated and cleaned thoroughly after each departure so that you and your guests can enjoy it with peace of mind during your stay.
Stayed and hikes around mt. hood. It was setup well for me and gf and another friend. He stayed downstairs, we had the master upstairs. Hot tub, nice. Riverside, nice. gated road, fine, nice. No issues, no worries. Close to breakfast on the corner of main road. Killer biscuits. Mirror lake is 15 minutes. It's great. It's on wet side, dark side of Mt. Hood, but that's fine, drove the dotted line road to Hood River. (summer only). It was a pucker up drive, but we got there. Spectacular scenes over the mountain pass where the pioneers would drive cattle on the oregon train (apparently) ...visited winery on other side of the mountain. Easy drive if you take the main road for an hour. The pass does NOT save you time, just an experience. It's not on Google maps. Just have faith and keep going.
Excellent house and great location! It was a perfect setting for a stay near the mountain.
Thank you for sharing your home! I truly love the peace I find on your property.
Loved the sound of the river and the hot tub

Beautiful property
It was great!
Gorgeous well appointed home.
We were much happier than expected. First positive experience with a Merideth property. The property was extremely clean and everything was in working order. We felt very comfortable and the home has a beautiful view of the Sandy River. I would definitely stay here again.
Everything at the location was well kept, great communication, and the hot tub was clean/perfect. Not too far from government camp and super spacious
Clean, spacious, clearly loved and well-maintained property. This house felt very private but still safe and we had a lovely time watching the snow come down from the hot tub. 10/10 would stay here again.
Beautiful house, well appointed kitchen everything needed to be cozy and cook! Love the view, great even when stuck inside, it rained all but 2 days of our week-long trip. Close to ski, sites, Sandy and Govy. You should know the tv situation is not good. Only living room tv works. Master bedroom is deeply flawed. Honestly buy a best buy Android ready tvs and bring them with you for the 3 bedrooms. It's not ok that it's not provided in any of the bedrooms.
