If you're craving a quiet change of scenery, consider a stay at this charming modern cabin located less than 50 miles from the heart of downtown Portland, and five miles from Wildwood Recreation Site. Inside, whip up anything from quick trail snacks to full-course dinners in the well-equipped kitchen complete with stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, and a small breakfast bar. Enjoy more formal meals together at the dining table for six - perfect for meals, laptops, or family game nights. In the living area, get a warm fire going in the river rock fireplace, settle into one of the sofas, and stream your favorite shows and movies on the flatscreen TV. And outdoors, breathe in the fresh mountain air while you soak in your private hot tub or meet up around the chimney as night falls. And if you want to get out and explore, there is an easy, year-round riverside hiking trail within walking distance that follows the Sandy River for four miles across unspoiled National Forest land.

Neighbors are very close by, not secluded
The cabin was very nicely decorated and waa pretty clean but there were alot of spider webs on the ceiling, and the carpet in the big bed room smelled like urine. I wish there was a privacy wall or something for the hot tub because the neighbors are right there looking at us only a few feet away. The pool was in the middle of the woods (there were no signs to find it) and it was closed even though the sign said the pool closes on Oct 11th and I went there on Sept 29th.

Cozy cottage
Cozy cottage in perfect location for skiing, grocery, and restaurants, yet deep enough in the forest so only the sound of the close by river and no road noise. It’s tastefully decorated and has comfortable linens and towels. Hot tub and dog friendly are great bonus! We would definitely return!

Winter storm 2024
Beautiful cabin, but wasn’t fully equipped for a winter storm and losing power. Wood was provided for the fireplace, but propane tank was practically empty, and back up in garage was empty. Most flashlights didn’t work, and there weren’t very many candles. If we didn’t lose power, it would’ve been a great stay! If there’s a storm coming when you visit, bring enough supplies for your stay.

Great place
Great place to stay, and close to lots of wilderness to explore. Cabin is so quant, cute and the decor is perfect for the area. Beautiful rooms. Hot tub was amazing, and the fire place was fully stocked with wood. Kitchen was fully stocked with utinciles and was a great place to cook a home cooked meal after a long hike. Other houses are a lot closer then pictures/descriptions indicate, but neighborhood is quiet and cozy. Only reason for not 5 stars: Vacasa is hard to get a hold of. They also offered a late check out, but never indicated that it is only available until 4pm the day you check in. We expected to be able to check out late on our laste day, after a long day out exploring with no reception, trying to email, and call them with no respons.. Next morning was able to text them, and that's when they finally told me if late check out is offered, it's inly good until 4pm ( on your check-in date)

Beautiful little place
We really enjoyed our stay. It was so nice to walk down to the river, nice little beach area. The kids had fun playing. The kids also enjoyed swimming in the pool. Our stay was short, wish it could have been longer. Loved being out in the mountains.

Cute House!
My family and I really enjoyed our stay here! We loved the location, not too far from town, but still felt secluded. The neighbors were closer than I expected, but it was still so quiet it felt like no one was around. My family really enjoyed exploring the nearby trails. I did rate down on cleanliness just because the hot tub had quite a bit of debris in it still from the trees, but other than that the house was very clean and cozy!

Ok Stay
The house was pretty clean and the perfect size for our group. The hot tub barely worked was filthy! There was garbage all around the hot tub and broken glass. I reached out to the company shortly after we arrived to get assistance with the hot tub, and they never responded.

Cozy Stay
Tucked into the forest with the sound of the nearby river, this place was warm and homey. Great base camp for our winter adventuring but also lovely to just relax and read a book by the fire.

Winter getaway
We were hoping for snow but still had a cozy long weekend here. The home was as pictured and very clean inside. The only thing was the hot tub definitely had not been cleaned from the previous guests. The beds were comfortable and the fireplace made it nice and warm to watch movies in the evening. Went to the ski bowl for some cosmic tubing and had a wonderful time! Thanks for having us!
