About this property
Hear the River from Cozy Mt Hood Cabin W/ Woodstove & Dogs Ok!
Hear the peaceful Sandy River from this classic knotty pine 1930's mountain cabin with a blue tin roof, located on historic Barlow Trail Rd. This cozy cabin is filled with plants and has vintage & mid century decor. Get cozy by the wood burning stove, original river rock fireplace, and picture windows. Take a soak after a day in the snow in the deeper than average tub in the newly remodeled bathroom.
Enjoy the large kitchen with all new appliances, a tranquil outdoor space with beautiful ferns, cedar trees, sun & shade, a fire pit, and a bbq. Have a meal or enjoy games at the large 6-8 person farmhouse table.
Check out our discounted weekly & monthly rates! This cabin is perfect for a couple, two couples, (3 couples if one sleeps on futon in living room), a friends weekend, or a family. We have 2 bedrooms (1 with Q and 1 with K), a nice Q futon in the living room.
The space is open, yet cozy, charming with a rustic feel, but has modern amenities like dishwasher and newer mattresses. Watch from the large picture windows as the rain or snow falls while you are warmed by the wood stove!
We are set back away from the road amongst lots of trees, but you can hear traffic from Barlow Trail Rd if you are in the front yard or have the front windows open. If you are in the backyard, or only have the river-facing windows open, you mostly hear the river! Our cabin is not on riverfront property, but you can hear the river, as it's just through the trees less than 50 yards away. Our cabin feels secluded, but we do have two somewhat distant neighbors. You can't see them in the spring/summer due to foliage, but in the winter you can see them through the trees.
Under 20 min drive to Govt Camp, 5 min to Welches Thriftway grocery.
HEAT: you can heat the main living area in the cabin without using the wood stove to about 65 degrees, and the bedrooms to 72, by using the electric baseboard heater near the record player, the plug in heater, and the very warm bedroom wall heaters. Some guests found they needed to use the wood stove to be comfortable in the living room area, so please keep this in mind. Although there is electric heat, the wood stove is guaranteed warmth! The wood stove can heat the entire home on it's own if you read the instructions in the cabin and keep it going. In fact, it gets too hot at times! If you plan to use the wood stove and not the electric heaters, we provide wood for you, but please bring your own kindling & newspaper, which can be found at the Brightwood Store near the cabin for $2.99.
We have a high chair and Graco pack n play board books and toys for those with little ones.

About the host
Hosted by Amber

I love traveling and staying in cabins. I also love to camp, hike, and spend time with family and friends. I designed and decorated our cabin to feel cozy, clean, warm, and welcoming.
Why they chose this property
We bought this cabin due to its cozy and charming feel, and it's proximity to the Sandy River. I always sleep so well when I can hear water. We remodeled, adding new hickory floors, but maintained some of the knotty pine walls, and painted others white to brighten the cabin. The cabin has a great balance of feeling warm and cozy, yet not too dark or dreary.
What makes this property unique
Many cabins on Mt Hood are close to highway 26 and the noise of a highway can take away from the setting. We were lucky to find a cabin away from the highway, with neighbors that are not right on top of us. We are a mile or so away from 26. Although you can hear traffic from Barlow Trail Rd when outside or if the front windows are open, the river is what you mostly hear, and Barlow traffic is much less constant than highway 26.
