Cascade Motel

10/10 Excellent

"We absolutely loved this place! We booked last minute through Expedia for a spontaneous trip and honestly didn’t know what to expect, but this motel exceeded our expectations. The cabins were spotless, newly renovated, and the property itself was peaceful, spacious, and beautifully maintained. Everyone we met — including the owner — was so welcoming and helpful, and we got some fantastic local food recommendations. If you’re visiting the Gorge or exploring the waterfalls, this is an amazing budget-"

Carson Hot Springs Resort

4/10 Poor

"NOTE:They really should market this as adults only. Be advised that you must be 18 or older to use the pool. They have this written in the fine print but we neglected to read. NOTE: If you want an early check in, let them know in advance. They are sticklers about this! The staff at the front desk could use some training. Not the friendliest. No sense of humor. Not very accommodating. Just be prepared. I am guessing they are over worked and overwhelmed. Tired. Property is a little on the run down side and probably has seen better days. Be prepared for lots of stairs. Bed was hard and there wasn’t a sheet between the bottom fitted sheet and the comforter. Both our queen beds were made up this way, so we think that is their standard. Restaurant is a good long walk up a hill. It was too far away after long days of hiking, so we ended up driving and eating in Stevenson both nights which is about an 8 minute drive. On the very positive side, the price was soooo much less expensive than the other more popular resort in Stevenson. We weren’t in the rooms much so if you are looking for a place to get some sleep, not a bad deal. You get what you pay for. There was also a nice fire pit and some chairs and tables outside to play games in the evening. We didn’t use the provided white robes in the rooms, but saw lots of people walking around in them. They had some gorgeous baskets of flowers along with an old tub filled with flowers which added some color and personality."

Best Western Plus Hood River Inn

10/10 Excellent

"The check in process was quick and efficient. The person was very helpful and provided information of things to do in the area. The onsite restaurant and lounge had friendly staff as well and the food was delicious. This site has a great view of the Columbia River Easy access to I-84. Nice base to explore the region."

Skamania Lodge

8/10 Good

"The lodge is pretty good! Went with kids and they loved the pool and hot tub and front lawn to play games. Our experience at the restaurant was not the best. It took a very long time to get our food which is hard with two little kids sitting there. To their credit they gave the kids a snack and acknowledged an issue with the pizza making process. My biggest complaint is the nickel-and-time $15 parking fee. The lodge is in the middle of the Gorge, 50 miles from an airport. There is no feasible way to get there other than a car. Parking fees can make sense in an urban setting where there is limited space and public transportation/taxi available. This just feels like another junk fee."
