Great River View Easy Stroll to downtown

This beautiful craftsman house offers the best value in the Gorge with amazing views and easy accessibility to all Hood River restaurants and shops! Enjoy your breakfast on the covered deck outside or from the inside nook while gazing at the Columbia River with Mt. Adams in the background. In addition to the marvelous views of the Hood River bridge, White Salmon bluff and the 'Event Site', this home is located in one of the most desirable neighborhoods in Hood River. Take advantage of this fantastic location to easily walk downtown to Mike's Ice Cream, Double Mountain Brewery, Full Sail Brewery, Brian's Pourhouse, Pines Tasting Room or walk the famous city stairs!

The Columbia street house is a 3 story, in the 'Craftman' style featuring a living room with original brick and updated gas fireplace. The adjacent dining room shows off beautifully maintained original woodwork as well hardwood floors throughout the house. All floors have plenty of windows and easy viewing! Outside is just as beautiful as inside! Sit on the front porch in the Adirondack chairs and watch Hood River drive by, enjoying the well done landscaping. The main floor bedroom(1) also has air conditioning and new windows with the half bathroom located off this bedroom. The walkout basement on the lower level has a common seating/sleeping area and a full bathroom with shower. This level is not completely finished but the bathroom is completely finished. This level of the house has the walk out basement to a very welcoming patio. It is great for gear storage as well.

After enjoying the day, take advantage of the very clean outdoor shower in the beautifully landscaped back yard. Relax on the back patio while watching the garden grow. Or enjoy a freshly grilled salmon on the back deck!

Our daughter’s wedding weekend
This charming home is in a beautiful neighborhood and the location is perfect for waking into town. It easily accommodated our large extended family and was equipped with everything we needed. I was especially impressed with the kitchen! My daughter and I loved sitting in the breakfast nook, overlooking the sloped back yard, the Columbia river and Washington foothills.I look forward to returning for a girls weekend soon!

Clean and Close to Everything
All of the reviews are accurate. This home was super clean and close to everything. It’s an older craftsman but kept very well. There are 2 bedrooms in the basement, one on the main level and one on the 2nd story. That’s one thing I thought would be helpful for a description to know with kids!

Perfect location & excellent back porch view!
Wonderful home. Back porch with amazing views of Mt Adams and Columbia River. Walked to Double mountain, our favorite brewery, several times :) Home is a classical, old house, but the kitchen is updated and well-stocked.

Fun getaway in a great neighborhood!
Our stay was very comfortable and relaxing. The house is old but charming, and it was perfect for our group. There were many amenities we enjoyed: a very well-stocked modern kitchen, more than ample towels and bathroom supplies, a great backyard, porch space in the front and back of the house, and an amazing view of the Columbia River and Mt. Adams. The neighborhood is perfect for walking and is close to many restaurants and shops as well as Children's Park (just a few blocks uphill). The only downside is that the freeway (I-84) is not far from the house, which you can hear when you're sitting on the back porch or in the backyard. But it's mostly white noise and we didn't hear it while we were indoors.

Hood River Stay
Beautiful neighborhood. The home was an older but classic old style (1930’s)construction. Beautiful remodeled kitchen. Sofa in front room need to be replaced. Just my opinion…The view is wonderful Downstairs below grade basement needs a new mattress. This is why 4 star rating. Bedding is absolutely critical for a 5 star rating and also a very easy upgrade

Uncleaned at check in, promised refund not made, nice craftsman house with view
While a beautiful Craftsman Home the check-in process was terrible. When we arrived exhausted from a wedding the day before the place had not been cleaned. It was evidently a screw up and the service worked hard to resolve the issue but it took 2 to 3 hours. A partial credit was suggested, but it never showed up. It was a fine house though with a great view of the Columbia River. I would hesitate to rent a property from Gorge key vacation rentals in the future.

Convenient location. Great views of river.
Great house for a family; we attended a wedding downtown and walked everywhere. The kitchen is awesome, well appointed and we all love the back porch and breakfast nook. The only thing missing is a coffee maker. There was a Keurig, but for 6 people, a drip coffee pot would have been more convenient. We enjoyed breakfast and evenings out on the back deck. The house is somewhat worn, but I like that it is not fussy and there is so much charm with craftsman finishes. The basement needs some sprucing up, and the small bed is not comfortable. It is musty down there, and floor is cement. A coat of paint throughout the house is needed, and the back deck needs some work. I would not lean on the deck wall, as it is not very sturdy, Parking onsite worked out great. The other beds were comfortable, as far as I know. We slept upstairs and we’ve were very comfortable. I love the huge walk in closet. I would stay here again. You can’t beat the views and location!

Had a great time with our family of 4 + dog. House is very close to town. The kitchen was well stocked and updated, much appreciated. The couches in the living room could certainly use an upgrade. Other than that, great home and we enjoyed our stay

Older home with plenty of room and spotless updated bathrooms. Meticulous gardens and a view that takes your breath away. Steps away from all that Mount Hood has to offer. Highly recommend.
