If you are looking for a mountain get-away to escape koi from the crowds after a busy day on the ski slopes or hiking trails, this is the perfect “base camp” for you! The magic of this location is the easy transition from ski cabin to summer hideaway. The oversized, fenced yard is under the forest canopy of towering pines, vine maples and lush ferns, providing cool spots for napping in the hammock, reading in the Adirondack chairs, playing yard games and relaxing around a fire. Leave behind the hustle and heat of the city. Bring food for the grill and a good book to take in the fresh mountain air. Our property has a 60amp ChargePoint EV charging station with a NACS port. Please bring your own CCS adapter if required for your vehicle.
We are located at the gateway to Mount Hood - about an hour's drive from beautiful Portland, Oregon. This area is the perfect start from which to explore the many different areas of Mt. Hood with countless hiking trails, ski areas, and lakes to fish in. This cabin is just 12 miles away from the slopes of Ski Bowl, and 18 miles to Timberline Lodge. Small grocery stores, gas station, local restaurants and bars are all just a short drive away. Come prepared to relax and enjoy the beauty of the great Pacific Northwest.
This 2-story cabin was built in 1930. While we have added modern touches throughout, the interior of the cabin boasts original hardwood floors, kitchen cabinets & counters. It offers 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, PLUS a detached 3rd bedroom in the backyard steps away from the main cabin. WiFi speed of 349+ mbps also makes this a great place from which to work remotely.
The living area has a cozy gas fireplace for winter snuggling, and small dining area with seating for 6. Relax while reading a book, watching a movie, or playing a board game the whole family will enjoy. Downstairs living/dining area does not have window coverings.
The original 1930 kitchen cabinets and counters are complimented with a modern refrigerator, microwave, stove/oven, and dishwasher. This fully appointed kitchen is equipped to prepare whatever meals you decide to create. There is also a small 2-person breakfast bar in the kitchen.
Bathroom has heated tile floors, one small vintage sink that is original from 1930, and full-size tub/shower combo with a detachable shower head that we find very helpful when bathing the kids. While the bottom pane of the bathroom window is frosted, there is no window covering on the top half of the bathroom window that looks out to the private, forested backyard.
