Hiya. Sasquatch here. Squatch for short.
Hood River has become a mecca for the soon-to-be-betrothed seeking memorable, ideal-weather weddings. This summer there were more couples in town swearing “I do” than kite surfers swearing “hell yeah.”
Getting married in the Columbia Gorge? Consider having your wedding party, family or friends rent out one big house to stay in.
There’s a unique sense of community and memory-making when people stay together in the same place. If there’s enough space and the venue is centrally located, each person has the option to hang amongst the flock or explore on their own.
There’s money saving in renting out one big place as opposed to several hotel rooms. From brewing their own coffee in the morning, to creating big communal meals, having a kitchen offers the freedom to nibble instead of eating every meal out. When you have your own place, the cost of meal prep and gratuities stays in the wallet.
Lodge 902 is a popular bed and breakfast available for rent all year round for family reunions, wedding parties, girlfriend getaways, dude vacas, milestone birthdays, family ski trips and corporate retreats. With six en suite bedrooms, plus an option for two additional apartments, it can accommodate 12-18 guests.
“We were in town for our son’s wedding and wanted our immediate family of 11 under one roof! Comfy beds, ample relaxation, eating and board game space! Lodge 902 also has wonderful views of Mt Adams and the Columbia River! Very convenient to downtown too!” — Pat, July 2019
The bottom floor is newly decorated as an entertainment/game area with a large couch and TV, life sized backgammon and scrabble boards and even a Miss Pacman table with a bevy of other nostalgic video games like Asteroids!
Not looking forward to meeting you,
Squatch

“We appreciated the walking location and the variety of toys for people of all ages - used the large Scrabble, the ping pong equipment, the puzzles, some games, hiking books, the photo booth, the game room downstairs and the great stock of cooking equipment. It was so nice to have enough space for everyone.” — Carol, June 2019
