Amazing location! The ONLY warning… bring your own pillow and coffee filters. The pillows were rough and there are no coffee filters. Everything else was fantastic!!

Great cabin for family get together

I booked this cabin to “get away from it all“ and it was perfect. The great outdoors plus modern amenities. I had the peace and quiet of the luscious forest and time to catch up on my podcasts and audiobooks. Highly recommend it.

Tiny, cozy and perfect

In a small cluster of homes. Neighbors are quiet. Woods setting is lovely and a very short drive to Salmon River trailhead. Beds need upgrading but otherwise very unpretentious and cozy.

Not terrible but also a lot of issues - The photos looked amazing but once we got there it felt like meeting someone you met online only to find out they didn't look nearly as good as their photos lol. We left early because there were a couple BIG spiders in the bed while we were in it. One of the beds felt like it was about to collapse because the bed frame, and a couple tables had really wonky legs (definitely not a place to put drinks or kick up to relax). Their was very little privacy between all the neighbors and curtains missing on some windows, making it pretty creepy at night. The hot tub was good but again, no privacy there. We also had to take out the trash up the road but instructions were unclear so even after all that work they never collected the trash the next day. No dishwasher so you better be good at washing dishes by hand. Again, not the worst place but it's definitely falling apart and shouldn't be used as a vacation rental at this point.

Nice place

This was a good location for outdoor adventures around Mt. Hood. The cabin itself was cozy. We were here in July and the mornings were chilly (lows in high 40s, low 50s) but the fireplace warmed the cabin up quickly. The bed was comfortable and the bathroom was nicer than anticipated for a cabin. The cabin overall was very clean. The only reason I didn’t give 5 stars is because there is a chair in the smaller bedroom that smells like BO. It either needs washed or replaced. You may want to bring your own coffee grounds. There was instant coffee available in the cabin, which was surprisingly not bad and there is a local coffee shop close by that has an awesome bagel sandwich! We ended up getting propane to use the fire table, which was very nice. To be fair; we took that upon ourselves thinking we would need to wait for Vacasa to have someone come out to bring propane and we didn’t want to wait. The WiFi was spotty, which was kind of annoying, but you are in a cabin in the woods. So, take that for what it’s worth! Overall, good experience.

Quaint cabin

We really enjoyed coming home to the hot tub after long days of hiking. The kitchen was fully equipped so we didn’t have to eat out every meal. Plenty of toiletries also. We really liked this place.. very quaint and quiet. Highly recommend 😊

Only visit if you like camping

I would say this isn't the worst place I've been to, but you can tell nothing has been renovated or replaced in a LONG TIME. Lots of flimsy furniture, spiders in the bed, no dishwasher, some windows don't have curtains, making night time a little creepy since people can look in. Lots of construction of houses right next to us. The hot tub was nice but no privacy at all. We didn't even use the porch because it was dirty and not very homey. We also had to take the trash to the end of the street but instructions were unclear so it was confusing and stressful. The owner did say we wouldn't get charged for putting it in the wrong place so they were accommodating. But the task itself felt like a chore instead of being able to be on vacation and relax. Also the remote to one of the TV's controlled both TV's, so I couldn't turn on/off one TV without it doing the same to the other TV in the other room... Just a lot of little problems that added up to where we ended up just leaving early. Only go here if you're okay with a house that's falling apart and good being surrounded by a lot of people and houses.

Although there were a few bumps like the hot tub being foggy and the dryer not working. It was a very quiet and peaceful place. All other amenities worked great and we had a wonderful stay!

Cute + Cozy Cabin

We had a great stay at this cabin! It had everything we needed and more. The heat worked great, the hot tub was perfect and the kitchen had all needed. We would totally come back and stay again! Contrary to other reviews, we felt it was very private. Thanks for letting us enjoy this place!

Lovely

The cabin was clean and comfy. Although the neighbors are pretty close it still seemed secluded. Hot tub was perfect. The kitchen has very little seasonings, so bring what you want.
