Cabin Trip
The location was perfect, the cabin had everything that was needed. The main highlights were the hot tub and its location and the easy access to view the river. The only issue is the shower head upstairs did not work which was inconvenient especially with a house full of girls and the check out was super early, tried to ask for a later but was told they could not accommodate, other than it’s a great cabin to stay in and checked most of the boxes

Fantastic retreat!
Our family really enjoyed this cozy, welcoming home. The surroundings were absolutely beautiful, as it's nestled in a quiet area surrounded by gorgeous trees. It has everything that we could ask for, for a wonderful weekend away!

Nice setup, but furnishings and amenities need TLC
The layout of the house worked great for our family. Hot tub and proximity to the river are a plus. However, we found the furnishings, fixtures, bedding, and kitchen equipment to be in generally "rough" condition. Not what I was hoping for based on how charming things looked in the pictures.

Great spot
Loved our stay here. The view from upstairs was beautiful, there is a river that’s a short walk from the house that was awesome. We could hear the rushing water from the house. Kitchen area was roomy, we had a great stay. Thank you for sharing your home.

Outstanding home away from home
We enjoyed everything about Stone’s throw! The short hike to the water, basketball, corn hole and the evenings were spectacular out on the back deck! The hammock was a big hit too:)

Disliked: Check-in

Quiet neighborhood. Nice setting. Short walk to river. Did not like a few things such as urine smell on the carpet, master bedroom toilet flapper leaking, master bed room door not lock not catching to lock, and broken deck chairs. Overall a good vacation.

A wonderful place to get away
We stayed at Stones Throw for 3 nights. Our group consisted of 5 adults and one teen, and there was plenty of space for all of us. We all felt at home and were all very comfortable. The house is located on a quiet road just off of Hwy 26. There were plenty of beautiful hiking places nearby as well as stores for any last minute supplies we missed. The kitchen had everything we needed to make family meals, and towels and soap were provided in each bathroom. We really loved reading through all the entries in the guestbook, and everyone was very happy. There were tons of games and DVDs to watch. However, I will say we will miss the hot tub the most. We will most definitely be back! Thanks for having us!

JANUARY
A very nice property in a good location, nestled in the woods with close proximity to Mt Hood. Only disappointment was that the hot tub needed chlorine and shock oxidizer which were not available and were not delivered after calling VRBO.

Mixed feelings overall
Generally this place was decent. The location is OK; it's fairly tucked away, but literally right off of 26, which means you can hear traffic from your deck. I didn't love that. You can also hear the river, though, which is just a five minute walk away. That was a nice bonus. There are also a couple of decent restaurants nearby, and a grocery store as well. The house is on a gravel road which gets a surprising amount of traffic, so you'll get dust flying up while you're out enjoying the front deck at times. The hot tub is great, and soaking in the tub surrounded by trees is a nice treat. That really made up for a lot of what we didn't like. The house itself is a little rough. The furniture is hilariously uncomfortable. The showers are tiny and really uncomfortable to use. The stairs are terrible - they're very steep with small steps and VERY plush carpet. Walk very carefully to make sure you don't fall down the stairs (like I did). Overall our stay was OK, but I would probably try to find something a little more comfortable if I had a do-over.

Beautiful location and home
The only reason this home isn't getting a 5 star review is because the cleaning was still taking place when we arrived and we had to wait an extra hour before we could move our stuff inside. 4pm is already a very late check-in time, so we were not pleased to have to wait even longer than that. Other than that, everything was perfect and in great working order.

Ski weekend
Stones Throw is a very comfortable well located property. Very quite and peaceful, close proximity to skiing. We especially enjoyed the hot tub after a day of skiing. Kitchen had almost everything you would need. Seasonings for cooking were a bit sparse. No salt and barely any pepper. Time to restock! Bed in the downstairs bedroom was too hard for me! Family upstairs said theirs was fine. While we were planning on bringing our dogs along, plans changed and we did not bring them. Asked for a refund on the pet fee, so far no response. Overall, we had a lovely time! Would stay here again.

Relaxing adult getaway
Gorgeous location is mostly private, possibly visible by only one neighbor. The hot tub works great, but a shelter/gazebo around the hot tub would have been nice. The utilization of space was good in the house. One of the bedrooms upstairs is a loft that overlooks the living room below. People in that loft bedroom will hear activity below until everyone else has gone to bed, too. Very spacious parking can easily accommodate larger vehicles. Overall, we would definitely recommend this property. Very clean, very nice to spend a relaxing weekend in.

Private house with river trail
Great privacy at the house! Loved the little trail back to the Sandy River with a little shore for the boys to play with sand. Great hot tub that had a perfect forest view.

Welches in the river
We have stayed at this location before, because it is beautiful property, surrounded by tall, magnificent tree, and a short walk down to the Sandy River. The home is a bit dated, but spacious, and fulfilled all our needs, except for a big problem watching streaming services on TV!!! Froze up every night, which was a huge drag when wanting to unwind together after a long day of skiing and hiking

Thanksgiving
Space was ideal for our college kids to join us for Thanksgiving so that they didn't need to drive all the way home. Kitchen was better equipped than we anticipated with plenty of pots, pans, cooking and baking utensils. The Thrifymart that's only about a 10 minute walk was super helpful and stocked with anything you might forget. While a little quirky needing to go through the upstairs bedroom to get to a sitting room, you figure it out. Main level master bedroom is big enough and would have been nice to have a king bed, but overall the beds were comfortable. We appreciated the quiet and isolated feeling, very little to no road noise, and the only sounds from homes nearby were the occasional barking dog. No complaints, only appreciation for an ideal location to rest and restore.

Great getaway
Pros- This home has great space for a family, especially with the extra family room upstairs. Well stocked. Beautiful decks on both the east and west sides, so could find sun or shade when wanted. The walk down to the river was longer than expected, but still just a few minutes away. It was a lovely place to spend a quiet afternoon. Cons- When we arrived, someone was there to check on an upstairs bathtub leak. We got the okay to shower up there, but not to take a bath in the jetted tub, or it would leak into the kitchen. The e-lock on the front door wouldn't work. The guy tried resetting the code a couple of times throughout our first day, and into the second, but no luck in getting it to work. We could lock the door from the inside, but couldn't lock it if we all left the house. We were finally offered an actual key, but didn't have plans to be away from the house on the last day, so passed. The hot tub was nice, but the water was pretty murky, and a ring of dirt stuck to the sides.

2 Weeks Well Spent
My wife & I spent 13 days at Stone's Throw. We've stayed at other cabins in the area & none of them had all the amenities this one had. It was wheelchair accessible with an elevator that went to the second floor. All the seating was comfortable. Even the outdoor seating. Central air was nice for a few of the hotter days. Very private setting. We will definitely be staying there again next year if possible.
