Cascade Motel

Cascade Motel was great. It was just outside of the middle of town, so it was close to everything without feeling crowded. There's a kitchenette with a fridge/freezer, microwave, and coffee maker. The decorations and cleanliness make it clear that the owners really care about the place, it felt like a cute little tiny home oasis to come back to when we weren't out for a run or hike. When we checked in the owner and his family gave us solid recommendations, without them we wouldn't have seen Herman the sturgeon (which was a highlight of the trip). I would stay here again for sure, and will recommend it to friends if they travel to the area.

Ok... so it's not a 5 star hotel! But I paid just over $100 for a one night stay, so I'm going based on that. For the money that I paid, we were thrilled. This place was cleaner than many of the chain hotels I've been to. The owners were super friendly. You can tell that they take pride in their little cabins. The bed had a mattress pad on it to make it more comfortable. They have a really nice firepit outside that we enjoyed sitting around while drinking a beer and chatting with the owners. We would go back here in a heartbeat!

I would say don't pay any attention to reviews written prior to 2019, especially not the 1 star that was obviously written by someone that got high while staying here and had an outer body experience. This motel is the cleanest one I may have ever stayed in, the owner is friendly as hell, it's super quiet and there is lots of spots to sit and smoke, read a book or just relax outside. Our room had a small kitchen, small couch and a smart TV in the living area and bedroom. Bathroom was nice with excellent towels. Looks like they are preparing to paint the outsides soon so that will make it even nicer. If you're looking for a well priced room to spend a night or two, check this one out!

What a lovely, welcoming place to stay in Cascade Locks. This is a small motorcourt off the beaten path, very quiet. We spent a night in Unit #6 which is half of a building with a nice yard out back. It was easily the cleanest room I have ever stayed in, in any motel/hotel. The bathroom was spotless, as was the room. This includes the baseboards, molding, doors, furniture, windows, shower, sink, etc. Furniture was in very good condition, with the bed being the only minor issue - it rather sagged toward the middle. The windows opened for a fresh breeze.

The manager is very friendly and happy to comply with requests. We sat outside in the evening under a tree, around a fire pit and enjoyed our wine and cheese. The manager offered to provide real wine glasses, but we had brought our own. I would definitely stay here again. And Cascade Locks is a lovely little town.

If you are looking for an authentic mid-century roadside motel in the Cascade Locks/Hood River area then you can't find anything better than the Cascade Motel! The rooms are spotlessly clean the beds are comfortable, and the room was extremely quiet. The rooms are non-cookie cutter & they are upgrading to its original mid-century feel. The owners were lovely and so engaging, happy to help you with any questions about the area. WE WILL BE BACK!

Nice little surprise here on our roadtrip. We showed up after 9pm with no reservation hoping to find a room for the night. No one was in the office, but a note on the door directed us to call for service. A very pleasant woman said her husband will be right there. Less than two minutes later he drove up and greeted us with a friendly "Hello!" He led us to our unit (#4) and opened the door for us. We chatted for a few minutes about the area and our trip. He suggested a few points of interest nearby and gave us some advice about timing our drive into Portland. We truly appreciated his thoughtfulness.

As for our room, it was very clean. Spotless. Looking as if it had been remodeled recently, the room was comfortable and the bathroom was literally sparkling. I appreciated stepping into the bathroom and shower without having to worry about anything nasty. The bed was comfortable and the sheets appeared new. Our room was certainly not fancy but definitely comfy. Cleanliness is the most important factor for me, and this place nailed it.

I would definitely return here for a stay - - hopefully a longer one next time.

A very cool, nicely maintained 1940's era motor court motel......individual cabins, some with kitchens. The room I stayed in was clean, had a very comfortable bed, a perfectly adequate bathroom, and lots of character. A true family owned and ran establishment in a town many people likely overlook.

This is a cute little place hidden away from the main road.
My parents stayed here while visiting my family the Gorge.

This Motel has had a lot of remodeling done recently.
The double cottage where my parents stayed in had newer carpeting, Nice big flat screen tv and new bedding.
It looked very clean and my parents said it was very comfortable.
The price for a small cottage in March was around $65.00 a night.
The caretakers were very friendly and helpful.
I highly recommend this place.

If you don't mind snotty people who drip with saccharin to your face. Very bad vibe here with everyone. Did not feel at ease or comfortable. Everything here is so basic and predictible I cannot recommend.

This is a charming older hotel that has been very well maintained and up kept. We're four couples travelling together and it was a perfect place for us each to have our own sweet little bungalow and a central place to meet chat and have a meal. Owner manager Scott and his lovely wife were eager to please add help us find places to go and amenities for our comfortable stay. They are a family operation who has been running this motel for 30 years. Dont expect the Ritz Carltpn in this nice small town, but DO expect a comfortable, homey motel experience from two wonderful hosts!
