Surround yourself with Mt. Hood's woodlands, streams, and ponds at this three-bedroom Rhododendron cabin, a cozy, dog-friendly home with a wrap-around deck, access to seasonal community pools and tennis courts, and a wondrous location close to ski slopes, hiking trails, and the Sandy River.

This two-level home sits on a quiet cul-de-sac a few miles north of central Rhododendron, in the midst of dense woodlands that provide wonderful privacy, and is the closest home to the community pools. Take short strolls on summer days to the banks of the Sandy River or the community pools and tennis courts (please note that a day use fee applies), hit the trail to Ramona Falls five miles east, and spend the winter skiing at Mt. Hood Skibowl (14 miles east), Timberline Lodge and Ski Area (19 miles east), or Mt. Hood Meadows (25 miles east).

Built in 1970 and thoughtfully maintained since then, this 1,536-square-foot home offers a tranquil setting for getaways in every season (please be aware that a high-clearance 4WD vehicle is required in winter). Build a fire in the wood-burning stove, watch the snow fall through the picture windows, and curl up on one of the sofas to enjoy the free WiFi, Apple TV, 100+ DirecTV channels, and DVD player. You also have a private hot tub for relaxing soaks.

Spend summer days flipping pancakes in the spacious kitchen (with a dishwasher), sipping coffee on the wrap-around deck, and walking your dogs on the trails that follow the Sandy River (please note that a two-dog limit and a nightly pet fee apply). Take a hike to the summit of Tom, Dick, and Harry Mountain 12 miles east, come home to toss your clothes in the washer/dryer, and light the gas grill for a backyard barbecue among the streams, ponds, and evergreens.
