Thunderhead Lodge

Thunderhead Inn Condos: where cozy interiors meet a supporting role in Hot Tub Time Machine. Inside, the place was warm and inviting, the kind of spot where you can kick back after a hike—though the bed was so firm I’m pretty sure it doubled as a chiropractic adjustment table. Ventilation? Let’s just say we didn’t need a menu, because we could smell exactly what the neighbors were cooking. Lots of grease, lots of guesses. Mystery solved every night. The exterior has that retro ski lodge chic—if chic means “someone should probably repaint this.” Seriously, if John Cusack had walked by in neon ski gear, it wouldn’t have felt out of place. Location, though, was a win. Being right next to a trailhead saved us a few bucks on parking passes, and the hikes gave us peek-a-boo mountain views wor

We stayed in Condo 301 (they are all privately owned and rented separately, so the review of the interior is only applicable to 301). Location is absolutely great. We really liked Government Camp and Mount Hood is amazing. Visiting in summer there are plenty of trails and sites to see. Condo itself is... Okay. Clean and comfortable, but quite a few things broken (shower, shower curtain, water takes ages to warm up, no cable TV, one ring on hob is broken, tin-opener is broken, dishwasher only cleans bottom rack) - these things really need sorting. Also, the advert does not mention the 3 flights of stairs, and no elevator. The building - a bit tired actually. There are issues with the security of external doors, hallway and stairs need some TLC, exterior decking has nails sticking out. Poo

Condo is located on the first floor (restaurant portion) of the historic Timberline Skyliner building located in Government Camp Oregon. Loved being part of that history. A short walk to Brewing Company … a bit longer walk to central Government Camp stores and restaurants. Condo has a huge fireplace, bring some firewood or simply load up at the General Store. Kitchen fully … fully stocked with cooking appliances, pots, pans and dishware. Plenty of spices too. Tons of space for families or get-togethers. A 15 minute drive to Timberline, or catch the bus just up the hill from the condo. Road is well maintained in the snow months, yet found it quiet day and night. Pool was under repair, but showers had a ton of hot water and warmed us up after ski days. Internet and Direct TV worke

The pool is like a giant hot tub! Really enjoyed our family stay in a spacious condo. Trail access is literally just outside the back door, so hiking, sledding, and returning from timberline was easy.

Stayed here through Airbnb and had a wonderful time! Only a short drive to three different ski parks, very convenient for getting there early and beating the crowds. The best part of the lodge was the outdoor geothermal pool! ~100deg water to warm up after hitting the slopes!
