'Gorge Retreat' - Modern Carson Home w/ Mtn Views!

  • Pack your bags for an unforgettable mountain escape! 'Gorge Retreat' is a 3-bedroom, 2-bath vacation rental home. Nestled in the heart of the Columbia River Gorge National Scenic Area, this newly built home boasts an open-floor concept, cozy sleeping arrangements, and unbelievable mountain & Columbia River views. Whether you're rafting & hiking in the summer or skiing & snowmobiling in the winter, this getaway offers easy access to an array of year-round sports in the Carson & Hood River area!

    -- THE PROPERTY --

    Bedroom 1: King Bed | Bedroom 2: Queen Bed | Bedroom 3: Queen Bed, 2 Twin Beds

    Cruise along the scenic roads of Carson to find your tastefully appointed home-away-from-home. Inside offers 1,760 square feet of living space, where vaulted ceilings and a wealth of windows bring the immaculate mountain and river views into the home.

    The living room is not only a great place to soak up the views, but is also the perfect spot to kick back and relax. Melt into the plush sofa or armchairs, flip on the gas fireplace, and stream your favorite show on the flat-screen TV!

    As the group grows hungry, get to work in the fully equipped kitchen outfitted with stainless steel appliances. After all of the food is prepped and ready, settle at the breakfast bar or elegant 8-person table for a quality meal with your loved ones.

    When the sun sets, lounge on the furnished deck and share a bottle of wine while soaking up the spectacular views. With southern exposure, you can revel at the gorgeous Columbia River and some sensational sunrises!

    For a replenishing night's sleep, retreat to one of 3 bedrooms throughout the home, all with brand new memory foam-topped mattresses. The third bedroom includes twin beds that can be elevated at the head and foot by remote. There are also 2 bathrooms in the home, one with a walk-in shower and the other with a shower/tub combo.

Gorge Retreat in Carson.

What a great property! We came into town for a wedding and stayed at this house with family and it was more than big enough. Very clean with super comfy beds and everything you could want! The view out the deck is gorgeous, I wish the weather was better for our stay.

Comfortable Stay

We very much enjoyed our stay at Gorge Retreat. The house was clean, well equipped, and we loved sitting on the deck enjoying the view each day. There are a lot of hikes and things to do within a 10-20 minute drive of the property (the Dog Mountain trailhead was only 10 minutes away) and the neighborhood was quiet. Lots of recommendations from the host, as well as brochures/books on things to do in the area at the house. Would highly recommend!

The Gorge at its best

It's hard to get a sense of the scale of the Gorge, especially from river level. The views from this house do it justice! You can really appreciate the height of the hills, the width of the river, and the majesty of it all. It's a wonderful home.

Great location

My Daughter and I stayed at the Gorge retreat for three days to celebrate her birthday with the intent to explore the gorge, one of her favorite destinations. This location was perfect for our stay. The location provide easy access to many of the sites in the gorge and is an excellent base for exploration. It is also in a very peaceful area located in a quiet neighborhood with excellent views. We particularly enjoyed returning to this peaceful setting after dealing with the crowds at Multnomah falls! The house had everything that we needed for our stay and I would definitely book this property again.

Great house. Spectacular ever-changing Views

First time to the Columbia Gorge area. So much to see and do. Beautiful scenery. Views from the huge windows across the whole house are always changing…clouds and fog one minute, sunshine the next, sunrise to sunset. House is roomy and comfortable. Stocked with the little extras that helped us get settled.

Close enough to Portland Airport to use as last night - and great place for nature

The purpose of the location was to be in close proximity to eventually exit the place to get to PDX airport. It was 35 minutes away and from the views it could have been 200 miles away. Excellent location to feel nature. Mountains, Waterfalls, Water pictures, National Parks, Hiking, Locks, fish hatchery, The home was very high on a hill - but this gives you access to an amazing view. We had a sunrise that was top 10 in my life. All the home comforts were there. Nice place.

Gorgeous house!

The Gorge Retreat is beautiful and modern! It seriously has everything you want, to be able to have a relaxing stay. Everything is so clean, even all the linens smell amazing! The views from the large, open concept living room and kitchen are stunning. We had an amazing time playing cards around the large dining table while enjoying a beautiful view of the Gorge. The wrap around deck is another great way to enjoy the view. The Elk Ridge golf course is nearby and there are a few great vineyards just a 20 minute drive away. The check in and out process was a breeze, and the site manager was available directly through text if needed. I highly recommend staying at the Gorge Retreat and would love to come back soon!

Gorgeous mountain getaway

We were a party of 6, ranging in ages from 7-78, and everyone had a blast at Agi’s house. The home has a stunning view of the mountains and Columbia River. It was well appointed with anything you would need in the kitchen, bathrooms, and bedrooms….and OMG the beds in all 3 rooms were sooooo comfortable…I’m talking the most comfortable beds of any 5 star home I’ve rented off of VRBO. Close by you will find plenty of things to do from hiking to the Fruit Loop to cute alpaca farms. We loved the Red Bluff Tap House and AJ’s Grocery store had great selections of organic produce, as well as any other items you would need. I highly recommend this house and the surrounding area!

Beautiful home, great views!

The home was very clean and welcoming. The views are fantastic, deck was sheltered on one side providing a nice respite from the wind. Amenities were great, kitchen was well stocked for cooking. Now for the not so good: The stairs to the garage were, I hope to code, but they felt extremely steep and had a nonexistent railing at the switchback which made them, in my opinion, dangerous for an older adult. The threshold at the top of the stairs was a TRIP hazard. almost 1 inch tall, if you weren't careful you might "roll" down the stairs.
