Welcome to the Mt. Hood Hideaway! A quiet, cozy retreat among the trees, right near the beautiful Salmon River.
The cabin (3 bedrooms w/ 5 beds, and 2 bathrooms) is great for family and friends, as well as for a romantic get-away or solo adventure. It has a well-equipped kitchen and outdoor grill for preparing meals. A beautiful propane-fueled cast iron stove in the living room provides inside ambiance at the touch of a button, while big windows, skylights, multiple outside decks, and a hot tub provide lots of ways to enjoy the sounds and fresh air of the forest just outside, as well.
Accessibility: 2 bedrooms and one full bath upstairs, and 1 bedroom and full bath downstairs. There are 2 steps to enter the house, and it is located at the end of a (very bumpy! please drive carefully/slowly!) dead end dirt road. You can hear, but not see, the nearby Salmon River, which is walking distance away. The nearest trailhead into the Mt Hood National Forest is a mere 15 minutes (on foot) away, with many, many others a short drive away. The cabin is also conveniently located within reach of a full grocery store (less than 5 min drive), library, bakery, gas station, and a bunch of wonderful local restaurants within a 10 min drive (BBQ, Japanese, pizza).
Activities: Within a 15 miles, you can ski, paddle, fish, mountain bike, or snowshoe on countless trails, rivers, and streams. Enjoy starry nights from the hot tub or wildlife viewing in the early morning through the many big windows or from one of the multiple decks. We also have musical instruments (piano, guitar, banjos and shakers), plus many games and puzzles for indoor fun.
Please note: This is NOT a party house-- it is a place for a peaceful getaway or get-together. We love and respect our neighbors, and ask all guests to observe quiet hours outside on the decks from 10 pm until 6 am during their stay. Also, there is NO garbage service at the cabin, so all garbage and recycling must be packed out (or can be taken care of for an extra fee). Please plan ahead for this, as it is a wildlife corridor and leaving garbage outside the house is not an option. Lastly, we ask that folks not wear shoes in the house to keep our cleaning fee as low as possible, thank you!
