Please go to our video tab at the top of the page to see the views and setting from the riverside of the cabin….

Panoramic views of the Sandy River from the great room, dining room and kitchen.

An unforgettable mountain retreat where the views, sounds and smells of the river and trees will reconnect you to your senses….

Sink into the serene and charming Wildwood River Cabin - an ideal mountain getaway less than an hour's drive from Downtown Portland. Just a few feet in front of the Sandy River, the cabin sits nearly secluded on its aged lot amongst towering fir, pine and cedar trees. From the great room you will see and hear the water as it gently winds its way down the mountain.

The knotty pine walls, vaulted ceilings and custom pine woodwork throughout the cabin make it an especially warm and cozy retreat for you and your loved ones. The open great room includes a clear-glass woodstove and a wall of windows offering a panoramic view of the river through the wildwoods. Outside, take a soak in the hot tub under the trees while sinking into the sights, smells and sounds of the mountain.

We warmly welcome you to the Wildwood River Cabin for a treat that will relax and restore you...

* Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us. Just a few weeks here, oh no, it was just a few days that felt like weeks of calm and peace. Can’t wait to return to your wonderful river retreat!
Linda & Christy & Lucille P.S. A very dog-friendly place.

* What a beautiful home you have here! We were in awe as we entered the cabin. The entire setting was restful and replenished the spirit. Our family had a wonderful time and thoroughly enjoyed our time here. Thank you. We hope to be back again.
The Mellin Family

* What a perfect peaceful honeymoon spot after a frantic wedding-planning month! We spent most of the week in the kitchen (and hot tub!) We will miss the sound of the river and the silence of the cell phones! We’ll be back for anniversaries!!
The Brand-New Vogt’s

* This place is so beautiful we did not want to leave. The kids and dog had so much fun playing in the yard with the snow and throwing rocks in the river. Thank you for sharing your home!
The Kind Carson Family

* The view out of the window every morning is so peaceful and serene. The weekend was the calm and restful mini vacation that we were really needing. Thank you, we will be back.

* Wonderful, splendid, pleasant, amazing, beautiful, cozy, warm… The sound of the river is soothing to my ears… the kitchen was too inviting, ate way too much good food, hot tub was hot, river was cold…the warmth of the surroundings made us both feel at home. The selection of games in the closet is fantastic.. Yahtzee is my new favorite game, as were the horseshoes.. so much fun!! Got a lot accomplished before 10am.. more than back in the city! Will definitely be back soon…best wishes Adam & Suzy

*Thank you for a lovely place to enjoy this beautiful wilderness. We’ll be back again and again. – Jen & Pete

*Wonderful. Relaxing. Idylic. Rested – couldn’t ask for more. Warm Thanks, Zoe & Lura

We love the Wildwood Riverfront Cabin; it is so beautiful and natural. We enjoyed taking walks, playing croquet, horseshoes, and indoor games. Thankfully we saw a mother deer and her fawn, and lots of other sweet wildlife.I can still hear the rushing water of the Sandy River & look forward to returning again in the not too distant future!

Everything about the property was wonderful. The cabin is beautiful and has a gorgeous view of the river. I loved listening to the river as I did yoga every morning. The owner was very responsive and easy to work with. The home was very clean and well designed. The setting is private with lots of trees and is quiet and peaceful. It was the perfect place to rejuvenate. The kitchen and bathrooms were well stocked, the bed was comfortable, and the living room was cozy and comfortable with a river view. I highly recommend this property for rest and relaxation.

Heavenly

This cabin is directly on the river. It is very peaceful and in a good location to visit Mt Hood and also Trillium lake. We enjoyed our stay. The dirt road to it is a little rough but it is only a short drive. Wish the full bathroom was more accessible to the second bedroom without disturbing the master bedroom occupants. Our visit was great and highly recommend.

The curb appeal when arriving at the property does nothing for how delightful this property is. The view to the river in the back is just as the listing picture promises. The beds were a little soft, and be sure you read checkout expectations, but we enjoyed our stay while visiting Mount Hood. There were a few coffee shops we enjoyed during our stay. Be sure to check out Mountain Moka!

Overall this is an A house nestled on the Sandy River. Quiet atmosphere and the house fully complemented. Close to Farmers Market in Welches and our favorite BBQ at Skyway Bar & Grill. Don’t miss the opportunity to see the Saturday concert at Skyway as well. Close to the network of trails along the Salmon River an area preserved by enactment for a great wilderness experience. We enjoyed a fine glass of local wine and sat by the river edge. We grilled and cooked in the well supplied kitchen. Would recommend this home to anyone. Bought a wooden bear from Gallery at Alder Creek near Sandy OR. Not far from the cabin and the artist Mike Schmidt was amazing.

Dream getaway

This cabin was the best we have ever stayed in. The minute we arrived, we felt very relaxed and happy! The view of the river from the living room was the best part for us. The hot tub was lovely and very clean. Everything was clean and tidy. They even had extra ammentities. Anytime we thought "oh we forgot this, or that!" They had it! Close to stores and restaurants and the mountain too. It was so quiet and very secluded. Not one person bothered us during our stay. We had the best 4 nights and didn't want to leave! We will definitely be back in the future!

Enjoyed our 2 night stay. Very comfy cozy cabin with neighboring houses visible, but felt private enough. Side windows in living room could use some coverings, but wast a big deal. The fireplace made the evening vibe even better!

Wonderful choice for tall trees, river sounds, and special , accommodating cabin.

Clean, bright, light, and special is the Wildwood Cabin. The site could not be better. The kitchen and appliances in the entire house work and all cooking needs accommodated. Great and efficient heating and cooling unit. The road to get to the cabin is easy to find, but when you do, watch out for huge holes in the road. They need to fix this.

We came out to the mountain for my husband’s birthday with some friends. This cabin was perfect! Very cozy with lots of thoughtful touches. We loved the fireplace and the hot tub. The hot tub was clean and really relaxing. It is separate from the house so you feel like you’re alone in the woods. Would absolutely stay again!

About the host

Hosted by Lili

Host profile image
I'm a small business owner living with my family in Portland Oregon. I practice Acupuncture + Chinese Medicine and absolutely LOVE the outdoors! Pictured here with me is our son Jensen and our malamute puppy Akino. :)

Why they chose this property

We chose Mount Hood because of it's proximity to Portland and all of the wonderful outdoor activities available there. In less than an hour we can be up at the cabin enjoying the hot tub by the river!

We chose the property because out of all of the properties on the market at the time, this one by far had the best views of the river and the most privacy/ seclusion. The sounds of the river too were so loud you could even here them throughout the cabin!

What makes this property unique

This property is stunning - we fell in love the moment we passed from the driveway side of the property to the river side of the property. Evergreens and poplars cover almost the full acre of land, the views and sounds of the river were so potent and in front of the cabin across the river there is green space - all giving my partner and I the sense that we were a million miles from the Portland although we'd been in the office only a hour or so before getting there!

Words, even pictures, can't fully describe what a peaceful and restorative experience this place offers. This, combined with the fact that it takes less than an hour to get there from downtown Portland, and we were sold!
