About this house rental

Welcome to the Spotted Dog Lodge, a luxurious new custom-build retreat nestled in the heart of Rhododendron, Oregon—where timeless mountain charm meets elevated Pacific Northwest design. Surrounded by towering pines and just steps from the serene Zig Zag River, this five-bedroom escape is only nine miles from the slopes of Government Camp, making it the perfect year-round base for adventure and relaxation.



Inside, every inch of the home has been thoughtfully curated with hand-selected décor and furnishings to create the perfect blend of mountain style and exceptional comfort. Natural wood finishes wrap the interior in warmth, while expansive windows frame forest views that shift with the seasons. The main level features two beautifully appointed bedrooms, each with en-suite bathrooms. Upstairs, you’ll find three additional bedrooms—including a quiet, private suite above the garage with its own seating area and kitchenette, ideal for guests seeking a bit more privacy.



The amenity list is as extensive as it is luxurious. Relax in the covered swim spa after a long day of hiking or skiing. Refresh in the steam shower or heated outdoor shower. Tech-savvy travelers will appreciate the hidden motorized TV with Sonos sound bar in the main living area, Sonos audio both inside and out, and two dedicated workspaces with dual 32” monitors. For your comfort and peace of mind, the home is equipped with privacy and blackout blinds in three of the rooms, fire suppression sprinklers, and an ADA-friendly driveway, entrance, and suite.



Entertainment is effortless with TVs in every bedroom and living room, plus a wood-burning stove, fire pit, and propane grill for evenings under the stars. Families will love the kids’ toys, books, dual lofts with cushioned play areas, and extra sleeping space with two pull-out couches and a futon. Play some games upstairs or battle it out on the ping pong table below. Either way, you are in for an unparalleled adventure.



Best of all, you're within walking distance to hiking trails, local coffee shops, restaurants, and entertainment, letting you experience the best of the Mt. Hood area without ever getting in the car.



Whether you’re sipping your favorite drink, enjoying the comforts and views inside, or gathering around the fire after a day on the mountain, the Spotted Dog Lodge offers a truly one-of-a-kind retreat where style, nature, and comfort come together in perfect harmony.



Spotted Dog Lodge is also perfectly suited for intimate gatherings and transformational work. Whether you're hosting a yoga retreat, guiding a breathwork immersion, leading an executive mastermind, or planning a small company offsite retreat, this space is designed to support depth, creativity, and connection. This is a place where groups can slow down, connect deeply, and experience the kind of luxury that supports clarity, creativity, and transformation.



Due to the location of the home, please note that there may be times where outdoor fires are not permitted due to safety reasons during fire season (typically July- August).



Quiet time is 10:00 pm to 8:00 am. This property includes a noise alert monitoring system in order to ensure that neighborhood noise levels are respected.

Great house that had more than you need! The hot tub was HUGE and our group loved it after a day of skiing.Unfortunately the TV in the main living room was broken but the host was quick to respond on the issue.

This place is amazing! The design of the space is beautiful. It balances being cozy with high end modern touches. The hot tub was huge and fit all 9 of us at once! The kitchen was well equipped for all of our meals, the space was clean, and the amenities were great. I'm thrilled we chose this spot for our work retreat. We had a wonderful time and will be back!

This house is beautiful and in a great setting. The design and decor is top tier. It’s spacious and very well appointed, with everything you’d need from cookware to lawn games. Communication with the property manager was quick and easy. Our group of 3 families with young kids loves this house. We will absolutely be back.
6 / 10Average·Dec 2025
This property was ultimately a disappointment, particularly given how it is marketed and priced. While there were a few thoughtful and appreciated features, the overall experience fell well below expectations for a home positioned as luxury.On the positive side, the home was clearly set up with families in mind. The toddler toilet seat, kids’ dining setup, and the selection of games and toys were well appointed and genuinely helpful. The steam shower in the primary bedroom was a standout feature, and the hot tub was clean, well maintained, and comfortably sized for a larger group.Unfortunately, many core amenities were lacking or nonfunctional. The hot water never truly got hot. The stove functioned poorly—possibly due to the low-quality or incompatible pans provided—making cooking difficult. The kitchen overall was not well equipped: there were no cooking oils or spices, no salt and pepper in the shakers, several basic utensils were missing (including a peeler), and coffee options were noticeably lacking for a house of this caliber.The ice maker in the main house did not work, requiring us to purchase ice. More significantly, the refrigerator in the studio unit did not work at all, even after resetting circuit breakers. The surround sound system was also not working. Slider doors were difficult to open and close, adding to the impression that maintenance has been overlooked.The bedding quality was surprisingly low for a luxury rental—thin, uncomfortable, and not alig
