Step into the enormous great room of this lodge and you'll wonder if, by Brightwood, they're referring not so much to the village a few miles away as to the riot of wood paneling that lines the inside of this home from floor to ceiling. Some of the rooms look as though they've been turned inside out! But you won't find a modern kitchen, a hot tub, or a dry sauna in the forest outside. From the custom chairs sprouting branches to the shake-shingle walls, this beautiful lodge seems more like a cottage in a Grimm tale.
The Mountain Air Lodge is nestled on a wooded acre alongside the beautiful Sandy River. You can delight in the sights and sounds of the rushing river from the warmth of the house - or walk along the private riverside trail.
And don't let the quaint decor fool you - this place has all the bells and whistles! There's cable TV, a DVD player, and a CD player. For unplugged fun, head to the rec room for a game of ping-pong, or foosball, or out to the garage for a game of hoops. For more sedate pleasure, grab one of the many board games. There's lots of couch space and so many big windows in this lodge, the walls seem to be made of glass! You'll have great views of the trees from every vantage point.
Get even closer to the forest out on the deck. Sink into the hot tub's warm swirling waters and delight in the rushing sound of the Sandy nearby.
Mountain Air has a modern, well-stocked kitchen with stainless steel appliances and beautiful stone tile in the counters and floors. You'll find plenty of serving bowls as well and an ample supply of spices. Six hungry people can sit at the glass table with padded chairs, plus two more at another table with stick chairs sprouting branches. Enjoy your meal out on the deck at the big picnic table in the warmer months.
There are three bedrooms in this unique and spacious lodge. Open the shades in the morning in one, and you'll feel like you're outside. In another - with shake shingles all around - it just might seem like you're already out there! Shower in the warmth of the sun as it streams in through the skylight in one of the three bathrooms. The earthen-toned tiles in the floor and the stall continue the pastoral theme of the rest of the lodge.
Mountain Air Lodge is right on the Sandy River, about five minutes from Brightwood. Take a walk on one of the nearby trails that run along the river in back of the property, or try one of the nine hiking trails right around Brightwood. If you've got the bike with you, Brightwood is the place! There are no less than 17 bike trails in the area. Of course there's fishing, kaying, rafting as well. Or, head down the road to Welches for a great game of golf. And that's just summer! In winter, this beautiful lodge can be the perfect home base for your forays into the many ski areas like SkiBowl or Mount Hood Meadows. Come anytime. Where else can you find cool chairs made of sticks?
