Sakura Ridge, what can I say? It was one of the most peaceful, and picturesque weekend I've had in a long time! The lodge sits on a 72 acre orchard, which also includes some farm lands that houses a couple of Alpaca and a bunch of sheep's. There were the three of us for 4th of July weekend and we booked the Mt. Hood room, and the River room. Both rooms are next to each other and had a patio with a picturesque view of Mount Hood. Both rooms had very comfortable beds, and all the amenities you need. Coffee, WiFi, towel, popcorn, glassware, shower amenities, and the best of all, heated floors in the bathrooms! Price per night rate comes with breakfast, and let me tell you! Breakfast was AMAZING! I actually was looking forward to breakfast every morning. It wasn't just the same skimpy toast, eggs and bacon kind of breakfast, but it was a nutritious and filling breakfast menu that changes every morning! It definitely filled me up until dinner time! Overall I recommend this place if you want a gorgeous, serene, and picturesque getaway! I felt at peace when I returned home. PS: Oscar the farm cat! Very friendly and will greet you every morning! read more

We stayed here in early April for a weekend trip. We could not have asked for a better B&B in the Hood River area, which is a little over 1 hour away from the Portland airport. Sakura Ridge provided a very comfortable stay with everything that we needed to unplug and relax. There were many small details that we appreciated- a beautifully designed and very clean room, comfortable bed and sheets, heated floors, snacks and drinks in the common area (hot cocoa, tea, soda, popcorn), and guidebooks, cookbooks, and maps for guests. The breakfasts were delicious and carefully prepared by Deanna. We had fresh lamb sausage, cherry tomato and goat cheese tart, scrambled eggs with chives, and sorrel salad. The second day, we had a cream cheese omelette, ham wrapped asparagus, and fresh blueberry scone. Deanna also made a berry smoothie both mornings. John was very kind and taught my husband how to feed their lambs on the second morning. We met him at 8am and my husband got to feed 3 lambs at one time! I have to say, it was a unique and fun experience. We stayed in the Orchard Room, which was great. It was built as an addition in 2007, so it has a separate entrance and felt very private. The bathroom was well appointed with a marble walk-in shower and soaking tub. We had a private balcony overlooking the chickens and lambs on the farm, and it offered an AMAZING view of Mt. Hood. One of the best things about Sakura Ridge is that it's situated on a farm with animals (lambs and chickens) and fruits (pears, apples, peaches, plums, and berries) and vegetables. We highly recommend staying here and would love to return in the summer. read more

Absolutely hands down the most beautiful, peaceful, friendly, and picturesque place we've ever stayed. The sweeping mountain views are just breath taking. We stayed in the Mt. Hood room, which is on the bottom floor. You can sit on the room's private patio and enjoy a postcard-worthy view of the mountain, the grazing sheep, and the lovely grounds. The amenities are well-appointed, I especially enjoyed the claw foot tub, heated bathroom floor, large bed, and did I mention the view?! Breakfast is served in the morning between 8:30-9:00am. Our first morning we were served a refreshing fruit smoothie, and a scrumptious breakfast tostada. The next morning it was homemade granola parfait, quiche, salad, and biscuits. Everything is homemade and they source whatever they can out of their organic farm. The cat: Oscar. He's not a cat, he's a dog in a cat's body. He is the friendliest cat I've ever met. He would run up and lead our car into the parking area, walk us to our room, and camp out on our patio. He's so adorable!!! The owners Deanna and John are friendly, but gave us plenty of privacy. We enjoyed exploring the orchards and garden. 300% would stay here again and again. The other guests have been returning here for years. This place is special and a must-visit. read more

Absolute heaven - so very serene and peaceful and so incredibly beautiful!! This bed and breakfast sits on a hill overlooking Hood River, Oregon and faces Mount Hood - the property is absolutely gorgeous. It sits on an organic orchard and is a working farm with a full garden and farm animals. The attention to detail inside the B&B is impeccable and the place is spotlessly clean. It's truly relaxing and quiet - and at night you can see every star in the sky. The service is excellent and the food is delicious and fresh as it all comes from their own farm. I highly recommend the Mount Hood room as it features a beautiful, clear view of the mountain. This is definitely one of those places you come to to unplug from the hustle and bustle of daily life. The property: When you first enter their gate, you drive through an organic orchard and as the driveway winds around, you end up at the most adorable 3 story cabin. The grounds surrounding it are beautifully landscaped with pretty flowers growing and the grounds are nice and colorful. They have the friendliest cat that hangs around the front and greets you as you walk up, too. When you walk to the backside of the cabin, you see Mount Hood -- and many of the rooms feature a gorgeous view of the mountain... absolutely beautiful, unobstructed panoramic views of both the valley and the mountain. Hood River is off to your left. To your right, you see the Sakura Ridge garden where they grow all of the vegetables that they serve during breakfast. They also have their own goats and chickens and they are fun to watch too. The cabin/ rooms: The rooms are adorable -- I arrived at the start of a weekend when the other guests had yet to get there and I peeked it at each of the rooms. They are very cute and inviting. Not all of the rooms feature a view of Mount Hood (some have a view of the side yard, etc), however, it appears that most do. Even if your bedroom doesn't have a view of the mountain, you can always utilize one of the common deck areas that feature amazing views and comfy adirondack chairs. We stayed in the Mount Hood Room and I enjoyed every minute of the amazing views we had. We had our own private patio and stayed out until late at night when we could see every star in the sky. Hood River is down below and there isn't any light pollution to impede your views - it's just magical and romantic. Each of the rooms also have the Toto toilets which have bidet features (not a fan!) - but the heated seats are amaaazing.. haha. The tiled floors are also heated and there is a thermostat on the walls to control the temp. Love it :) The only thing I didn't care for was the fact that the WiFi was so slow it was basically ineffective and there was no TV in our rooms, but that's OK. This is one of those places you really come to to unplug anyway. Also - the cabin has a central community living room and a community kitchen complete with a fridge, microwave, oven, etc. One of the other guests that was there during our stay caught some salmon down in the Columbia and cooked it one night while we were there. They have dishes and all of the utensils you need to make that happen if you don't feel like going out. The food/ service: Breakfast is served each morning at 8:30AM. You sit family style with other guests (but I think that is fun to meet new people - when we were there, there were couples from California and Vermont). The food is fantastic and super fresh as it comes from their own farm (veggies, fruit, sausage, fresh farm eggs, etc). The owner is both the cook and the server and she is friendly and helpful. Afterwards, she and her husband disappear to work on the property and you don't see them again until the next morning at breakfast. Hood River, OR: While this is not directly about the B&B, I just want to say that this is one of the cutest towns in America that I have ever visited. You can shop, play on the water, visit Mount Hood & Timberline Lodge, you can take the "fruit loop" and visit the area's local berry farms, hike in the area and see some awesome waterfalls, drive through the Columbia River Gorge, etc. We had the best time here. I highly recommend this town and this B&B. We also had an Italian dinner one night at Romul's and it was very tasty, so I recommend them as well. :) Enjoy :) read more

I just can't say enough good about this B&B. It is an Incredible place to stay and a Great value. The Host was very nice, very knowledgeable about the area, and available but unintrusive. Sakura Ridge sits in a beautiful orchard, farm and has a great view of Mount Hood. We chose the river room and got an unexpected surprise one morning, when the skies were clear, Mount Hood was just out the window, what a great view. The Breakfast was really great.... The entirety of the breakfast was locally sourced from the farm or neighbors farms. It was very well presented and delicious. Hood River is a neat town with at least one great brewery and some good pizza places.. There are some other activities in the town (Windsurfing and kayaking off the top of my head). Sakura Ridge is close enough to go into Portland for the day. There are tons of parks and waterfalls between Hood river and Portland. I have a rule about staying at B&B's They can't be frufru (I'm a dude). Sakura ridge is, as they describe it, Rustic and Classy. I felt totally comfortable there and I'd even feel comfortable staying there if I was by myself. Ha. read more

This place is amazing. The rooms are VERY nice, very well kept and well furnished. The view from the lodge is absolutely gorgeous, and breakfast is exquisite. read more

My wife and I decided to visit Hood River and discovered this lovely place online. The online pictures and reviews were great but experiencing this place in person was even better ... the long drive on the private road with snowy Mt. Hood in the background on a clear cloudless day ... the 5-star attention to detail ... the amenities ... Deanna's breakfast with soft scrambled eggs and fresh lamb sausage from scratch ... so yummy ... the hospitality ... the Japanese toilets ... we really loved everything about this place and especially the huge picture windows featuring Mt. Hood in the center. It reminded me of a temple in Kyoto where the columns and beams were placed like a picture window to feature the natural surroundings. Thank you Deanna and John. We hope to visit with you again soon. read more

Probably the most impressive lodging experience I've had in quite a long time. Staggeringly beautiful views of Mt Hood, very well kept lovely gardens and farmland surrounded by pine trees. The lodge itself is spotless, well maintained, charming, and the hospitality is way above average - with small tokens of comfort and care that feels more like staying with a family member than a hotel. Farm fresh breakfast served and lots of relaxing things to do in the commons areas, whether lounging, reading, each space is nicely appointed with cool rustic modern decor, art and details. The beds, linens, pillows and everything about the room we stayed in were excellent and comfortable. Very clean, which is a huge factor for me. The hosts were even kind enough to leave fresh flowers in our room for my girlfriend upon my request as a favor. Highly recommend, and will definitely be coming back as a secret little gem of a getaway spot close to Portland that still feels special and tucked away way up in the mountains. read more

My wife and I stayed here in Sept. 2014. First experience at a B & B. Would definitely recommend. To sum it up.... Friendly service, excellent food, & an unbelievable picturesque view. They set the "bar" pretty high. Hope our next B & B experience is as nice. read more

The photos do not do this place justice; THE best place to stay in the Gorge. A close drive from downtown Hood River with magnificent views. Breakfast was delicious and the room left nothing to be desired. Cannot wait for my next visit. Thank you, John & Deanna! read more

There are many reasons Sakura Ridge has nothing but 5 star ratings. It starts with its location. Find Hood River, OR, one of the gems of Oregon and the Pacific Northwest, then take an easy drive a short way out of town into the orchards to the west. At the end of the road you'll find an idyllic spot you won't believe and you won't want to leave. The views of the valley and Mount Hood are spectacular even with the early season clouds that only allow the hem of the mountain's skirt to be seen. We sat outside our room and listened to owls calling across the valley to one another in the evening after walking around the orchard and visiting with the resident sheep herd. Your hosts are gracious and welcoming. Breakfast each morning was delicious. The suites are quite, private, and so very comfortable. The smallest highlight is Oscar. Watch out for this incredibly friendly gray cat; he might be lying in the road as you drive in. read more

Wonderful place with great food and views of Mt. Hood from the B&B. The orchards and sheep add a bit of pastoral ambience to this special setting. read more
