One bedroom with full / twin bunk and a trundle on the lower level, full, clean bathroom with bathtub. Upstairs is media space with a thermarest pull out queen bed, a full bathroom and a primary bedroom with queen mattress. Plenty of storage and gear locker onsite. Trails for the MHNF are out the door. Enjoy drinking water voted Best in Oregon (it's sooo cold and delicious!). The Mountain's best BBQ is walking distance away, with amenities in the Village a quick drive away (3 minutes). Groceries, brew pubs, Golf, Frisbee Golf, Spa, trails, fishing, mushroom foraging... the list goes on! Moonshadow has been lovingly updated with fresh paint, linens, lightings, fixtures.

Decent place to stay for a ski weekend

The place is just fine for a small family ski weekend or hiking at Mt. Hood. Check in is easy, but I took stars off for cleanliness, especially considering it felt like we had to do quite a few cleaning chores on the way out and I found a few things laying around and in the fridge, despite a cleaning fee being charged, etc. Overall, I would consider the place again

Tiny bathrooms

My only complaint would be the tiny space between the wall and toilet upstairs. And the sink didn’t drain very well. But we loved the place, it was peaceful. The blankets were amazing. The beds were so comfortable. Internet worked great.

I took my kids and other family here so we coulf go play in the snow. It was a little bit further than i thought it would be to reach snow but that wasnt a big deal. This cute cabin had almost everything. Board games, washer & dryer, there were even basic food items like hot chocolate and pancake mix. The kids had a great time running around while us ladies enjoyed the facial masks and bath bombs that were there for us to utilize. Great little get away.

Cozy, private, homey

Loves staying in this cabin in the woods. The layout of this cabin allows for privacy but still can communicate with people in the home from anywhere you are. Kitchen was so perfect for our needs. We brought a crock pot for chili and cooked steaks and broccoli the other night. We made full use of the kitchen and it had everything we could possibly need. The pellet stove was such a nice addition, but we ran out of pellets after the first night. Would be nice to have a slight upgrade in the lighting. Playing board games and puzzles was hard in soft light. I would love to come again. Great for kids with the bunk beds too!!

It was spacious, clean, and fun place to stay. It had charm and a cozy vibe. Lots of thought into what people might need or forget during their stay. Lots of shade and greenery surrounding the property making a nice view from the wraparound deck.
Road property was on.

Skiing remote work

This house worked great for a quick midweek ski getaway. My teenaged son and I skied, while my husband worked from the house. About 20min to Timberline, 30min to Meadows. Well stocked kitchen (butter, cocoa, tea) and cozy beds. Highly recommend!

Vintage property in the woods

The house is a cook 70s throwback. The kitchen is large and the two living spaces gave our family all the space we needed. The pellet stove was perfect to sit around after sledding all day. The two things I’d recommend is better lighting throughout downstairs and a shoe rack by the front door/
