A soulful and comfortable cabin in a beautiful surrounding

The cabin is beautifully built, not big but very cosy and comfortable. The bed is good. Kitchen well equipped. Bathroom is narrow but everything is clean and functions fine. Lots of notes give directions about everything available. Nature is stunning. Cabin offers privacy and quietness

Perfect A-Frame Staycation

Nestled in the trees, in a quiet neighborhood. A short lovely stroll to the Sandy river, with a cup of coffee in hand, was the perfect way to wake up each morning. This cabin provided the perfect home base for a friends mountain wedding weekend!

Nice for a single

This cabin is a perfect get away for a single. It came well stocked with all the necessities that a person would need while staying there. It’s in a quiet neighborhood nestled amongst the trees. The short walk to the river is an added bonus. Enjoyed my stay and plan to return.

Cozy wonderful little cottage

This was a great place for just me and my dog to go for some relaxation and personal time. The Chalet was very well kept and had everything I needed. Loved the secluded rural neighborhood that still gave me lots of privacy and a feeling of being in the forest. Lots of things to do and places to check out just a few minutes away.

Adorable

This cabin was so cute. I loved the stiry and history if the cabin the hosts had in the room. EVERYTHINC was labeled which made it so much easieer to find and function in a the space. We had some issues woth our code to get it but it was quickly resolved. Another amazing stay.

Quiet Retreat!

It was a great getaway to be close to the mountain for skiing! We also really enjoyed walking down to the Sandy River. It was very quiet and relaxing! The cabin is very cute and cozy and the kitchen is great! it has everything we needed to be able to cook. The bed was a little uncomfortable, we just would bring a foam mattress to put on top next time. We enjoyed our visit!

1 Old Man + 1 Old Dog + 1 Small Cabin = Contentment

• Immaculately clean • Stupendous use of space • Comfortable bed • Pristine condition My ancient Blue Heeler and I couldn't have been more pleased. Two minor things of which they have no control ~ While using their gas BBQ, the second burner connection seemed to have come lose or in need of repair (it was working fine at first), and some loose dogs in the neighborhood were obnoxious.

I loved the backstory and how it was built. I loved everything about the cottage, but the grounds around it need improvement. That's an easy fix. Also, in icy conditions the deck is a bit slippery.

We really liked the house. Small but cozy, it has everything you need for a comfortable stay for ...

The house is clean and tidy. The hosts took care of everything necessary for the guests. Five stars in all positions.

Unfortunately, we misread the advertisement and thought the river access was included with this cabin. Sadly, the rude neighbor came down and stood there to let us know we were trespassing and on his property. We thought we had carefully read the instructions, but sadly, we did not read them correctly. We were never able to find the public access point, although we spent a fair amount of time looking. There is no privacy, the pictures are misleading, and after the encounter, we felt uncomfortable, and the neighbor can see you from every part of the outdoor space. We decided to leave and not stay the night. The cabin is cute and was very clean.

Beautiful location with some history

The cabin is in a perfect location for exploration. As a historian I enjoy wandering around the Oregon/Barlow Trail sites. Also I enjoy taking photos so this is the perfect place. Everything in and around the cabin was perfect!

Cozy stay

The place was clean and the kitchen was well stocked. The room was cozy and comfortable. We loved our stay. The book with the history of the family and construction of the cabin was neat to read. It reminded us of the cabin our grandparents had.
