Back in 1957, when Elvis was "All Shook Up" and Pat Boone had an "April Love," someone also liked the musical sounds of Clear Creek as it tumbled over the rocks to meet up with the Sandy River, so they built this classic "A" frame cabin to be close to that wonderful sound. Now, you can be there too! As though it were reaching out to get even closer, the wonderful deck of this recently remodeled cabin spans the final few feet to the creek's edge, making you feel as though you're part of the cascading waters. Just 1.5 miles from Mount Hood Highway, you'll enjoy the quiet, unhurried atmosphere of this cozy mountain hideaway on Clear Creek, providing a timeless, relaxing escape on about one acre in the forest.
Ensconced in the warmth of the Vermont Casting wood stove, the wood-paneled, cozy living room on the main floor has a queen sofa and opens to grand views of the creek below, providing the perfect compliment to the tranquil atmosphere. Catch those re-runs of Lucy and Desi on the cable TV on both floors, or enjoy the DVD/VCR/Stereo/CD Player, with 6.1 surround sound. Bathed in light from 10 dormers and big, stylized windows, the upper level has a sitting room - with breathtaking panoramic views of Clear Creek - that you won't want to leave. Like previous guests, you can play music here, do artwork, relax, watch TV, read and more. Sink into one of the two soft sofas. There are antiques (for example, an old sled converted into a coffee table) and a writing desk by the window where you can pen a letter or commune with your muse while you watch the rushing waters below.
The kitchen of this home is literally a work of art. With custom tile work by Enna Tiles, a local Mt. Hood artist, your chef will have the rare combination of aesthetic and functional value. With ample room for cook and helpers, the unique tiled island houses the electric range and affords you the extra space for extra dishes. There's a microwave and coffeemaker as well. Clean ups will be easy with the dishwasher.For marshmallows and s'mores, head creekside to the stone benches and fire pit. Serve it all up at the table for six (two more at the bar), or gather 'round the table on the deck and have your meal above the roar of the creek.
Bedrooms are upstairs. In both, your bed will be the base of the triangle formed by the A-frame roof, with big, custom triangular windows inviting in the morning sun. The Master Bedroom features a queen bed and a bath and the second bedroom has a twin bed and a full bed. The bathroom on the main floor is a veritable spa. With two sinks, a two-person Jacuzzi tub and a dual head shower, this is not your average bathroom. Enjoy a romantic and relaxing view of Clear Creek from the hot tub as the warm water swirls around you.
As part of the Mount Hood Scenic Byway, Rhododendron is a great jumping off point for all the activities, summer or winter, available around Mount Hood. Close to five ski areas (including Mount Hood Meadows, a little over a half-hour away). There are great places to fish and hike as well with nature paths around the property that run by Clear Creek.
