Property details

Be one of the first to escape to this incredible HillsHyde retreat. Enjoy the breathtaking views from both inside and out of the Columbia River Gorge and the surrounding region. The 500 square foot covered deck provides an exceptional location to enjoy every moment possible. Inside the custom built 1929 you will find beautiful built-ins, Russian white oak hardwoods, and an upgraded chef's kitchen. Dr. Hyde was a beloved local family physician that built and lived in the home for many years. Connected to the kitchen is some tableside seating as well as some space at the bar. The main living room has additional dining room seating as well as a cozy place to relax after a day of adventures or just because. The entire room is bathed in natural light and incredible views. When it is time to relax, throw on a record and read one of your favorites in the attached library. Also on the main floor is a spacious bedroom with en-suite bathroom with a king bed. The entire home is filled with countless antiques, artwork, and custom pieces to create the perfect blend of character and comfort. Ascending upstairs there are a couple different sections of the house. One has two additional bedrooms along with a full bath nearby. For more sleeping flexibility there is a twin day bed just outside the bedrooms which is perfect for kiddos or young adults. The other upstairs section of the home is perfect for fun and entertainment. There is a large couch and a huge TV to enjoy countless streaming options. If you are looking for a little competitive enjoyment there is a pool table, dart board, and putting mat for the group or family to thoroughly enjoy together. Descending downstairs you will find a lower level that is quite special. Besides the laundry and some facilities related stuff, there is a final sleeping area that is a haven for the kiddos. The room has multiple twin beds as well as a twin over twin bunk. There is some comfortable seating and TV for streaming. The teepee is always a hit as well. As you can tell, this home was furnished a level of thought and care to facilitate most any group or family have a truly special time. It is rare to find such a complete home on an acre of mature landscaping. We look forward to hosting you at the HillsHyde Escape. Please don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions at all.

Wonderful weekend in the Dalles! Perfect place to sit on the porch and enjoy a glass of wine while watching the sunset over the river. The hosts were responsive and proactive in communicating, would absolutely stay again.
