About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire apartment to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Escape the big city, park your car, walk and bike everywhere!

This is our dream home and community. We are literally one block from town and surprisingly secluded on a little known section of Sherman Avenue.

No expense was spared in building this brand new home.

After a year of not renting because of COVID we are back, vaccinated, ready to provide a sanitized safe environment and looking forward to 2022.

Hood River Certificate/License No. 674

New Parklane king-size bed that actually splits into two twins. Just ask for us to split them. Its no problem.

The space is open, airy and partially sub-terrain. The room naturally stays a cool and even temperature. Even though it is set back into the hillside you are elevated from the road which gives you a better view and sense of privacy.

You have your own private entrance and completely separate living quarters. You are not sharing your space.

Jon loves to kite, windsurf, road bike, mountain bike, hike, dirt bike, snowmobile, snowboard, alpine ski, cross country ski, snowshoe, SUP and kayak.

Nancy is learning how to kite, does yoga every day, road bikes, hikes, cross country skis, snowshoes, kayak's and SUP's.

Just let us know what you'd like to do when you're here. We'll let you know where to go and/or just plan an adventure with you.

We have room for you to store your bikes, boards, etc., hot water to hose stuff off and a great place to let your wetsuits hang dry.

We've owned this lot since 1991. It had another home on it that was rented and a favorite for visitors because of its location. We just underwent a 2+ year demolition and rebuild. Many of those who stayed at our old home are now permanent Hood River residents. This new home is WAY better.

Perfect for the Solo Traveler!
This is my second time staying at White Cap and it's still a great place. The location in town is ideal - close to excellent dining and fun bars, yet on a quiet street. The unit is very comfortable and has everything you need for a home base. Many thanks to the attentive hosts!

River life
Had a wonderful 1 year anniversary weekend. The property was perfect. This was such a cozy place for us with perfect walking access to DT Hood River and to the event site/sandbar for our water activities. Couldn’t have asked for better hosting and cleanliness. Truly enjoyed this property, and will for sure return again soon!

We were in town for a wedding and had a great stay! After exploring the surrounding areas, we quickly realized we were staying in the best location. Close to hiking trails, shops, restaurants, and the Fruit Loop! Had a nice, big breakfast at Bette’s :)

This was a perfect spot to stay for the weekend in Hood River. Super close walk to the "downtown" road. Had a really comfy bed, was nice and bright, and had what I needed (no full kitchen, but great for short stay). Thanks for a lovely stay!
