We loved our time in this home. The views of Mt. Hood and the Columbia River Gorge were stunning and ever changing with the light. The home was very clean and appeared to be recently renovated. The finishes were all very nice. We did lots of cooking in the kitchen and it had most of what we needed. One great thing is the FOUR bedrooms and lots of bathrooms. This was perfect for our extended-family vacation because everyone had the personal space they needed as well as the large living room/kitchen/dining room area. This is a great home base for exploring the eastern end of the gorge. Some activities we enjoyed/recommend: the Goldendale Observatory, Maryhill Museum, Jacob Williams Winery (amazing views), Columbia Hills State Park, Catherine Creek for hiking, Sorosis Park in the Dalles, The Columbia Gorge Discovery Center, Hood River, etc. Oh, yeah, and be sure to drive up the driveway at Schreiner Farms just east of the property (free) to check out the exotic animals (bison, zebras, camels, etc).
