If you’re searching for an authentic cabin—one with history, charm, and handmade details—Cedarwood Cabin awaits. Hand-built in 1922 and lovingly restored, this is real Mount Hood heritage, ready to transport you back in time for quiet evenings of connection.

At the heart of the cabin is a beautiful enamel woodstove. Light a fire, settle into the cozy couch, and let the evening unfold with books, board games, vintage records, warm blankets, and the soft glow of vintagelighting.

Sleeping & Layout

Cedarwood is a classic one-room cabin, ideal for couples. The double bed sleeps two, and the futon couch folds down for an additional sleeping spot.
(Please note: the open floor plan offers minimal privacy.)

Kitchenette

The kitchen is simple but well-equipped with essentials: a plug-in hot plate, griddle, microwave, coffee grinder, French press, and a full assortment of dishes, utensils, and cookware. There is no oven. Prefer a night out Restaurants and brewpubs in Welches are just minutes away.

Bathroom

The bathroom is only a step outside the back door (with covered entry). Inside, it’s fully remodeled with a subway-tile shower, sink, toilet, cedar shelves, and a twist-timer heater for comfort during chilly mornings or evenings.

For Guests Accustomed to Modern Homes

You can absolutely fall in love with Cedarwood’s charm—but please know this is a true cabin, rustic and simple by design. You won’t find a TV or modern luxury finishes. You will find history, character, and handmade, old-world craftsmanship.

What You’ll Love

• No TV—just books on hiking, wildflowers, and Mount Hood history
• Soft blankets, handmade pillows, and a snug couch for reading or cuddling
• The peaceful patter of rain on the roof

The Setting

Cedarwood sits on a small loop road of cabins and homes—quiet, safe, and neighborly. You may see someone walking a dog, but privacy is well respected. From inside, your view is filled entirely with trees.

Conveniently located just off Highway 26:
• • 5–10 miles to popular trailheads
• 15–30 miles to ski areas
• Easy year-round access; no 4WD required

RUSTIC BY DESIGN

This is not a modern home styled to look like a cabin—it is an authentic cabin. Think glamping meets history: cozy, quirky, and full of character. If you enjoy yurts, lookout towers, tiny houses, or treehouses, Cedarwood will feel like magic.

    I don’t know where the cleaning fee went bc everything was dirty. I mean it’s an old cabin but counters and bathroom weren’t pleasant. I think it’d be nice to mention too that the bathroom required you to go outside in the dark… in the woods… 👀. We ended up leaving at 4 am bc it was just a bit too much and we weren’t comfortable there.

    Highly recommend! Very clean. Very authentic. We loved learning about the cabin's history from the book Ian has provided. There are plenty of places to eat nearby. Lots to see and do as well. Cell service is spotty at best. But we weren't visiting the area to catch up on our social media accounts. And you don't need service to take a million pictures. The wood burning stove was used far more than the mini split. But it was nice to have both options, so we didn't use too much wood. The cabin holds heat very well. Yes, the bathroom is outside of the cabin. But it's 100% updated and modern. It's so close you just put 1 foot outside, enter the code and then step inside. There is a heater in there as well. There are other cabins and houses nearby, but everyone is quiet. One of the most peaceful places we have visited. Oh, and if you're going to be out past dark, leave the porch light on. It gets dark out there. But turn it off when you get settled and step outside and look up. This little cabin is quite the gem and I'm so thankful Ian is sharing it with the rest of us.

Truly the perfect cozy cabin experience with great proximity to lots of outdoor fun.

    The Cedarwood Cabin was magical! Rustic, unplugged, and quaint. The wood fire stove was a perfect touch … allowing us to enjoy roasted hotdogs and making s’mores. Even having the bathroom connected but available by going outside was reminiscent of a family cabin decades past. The historic Cedarwood Cabin is definitely everything we needed … and only sad our time had come to an end so soon

    We were excited for our stay at this property; however, shortly after our arrival we found a mouse. We contact VRBO and the owner. The owner denied our claim “as it had never happened before” and refused to refund us although we had to find alternative lodging (Marriott hotel in South Portland). Overall it was a bad experience.

We said four people were coming, but there was a top sheet but no bottom sheet for the futon. Also, there was one washcloth in the bathroom for all four of us! Another kitchen towel or two for our three night stay would have been nice, too.

    Stepping into this cabin, you can tell the host has thoughtfully and carefully worked through each detail to capture the history and beauty of the area. The cabin was so peaceful, with sounds of rain and the river nearby, beautiful lookout windows, and the comfiest bed. Woodstove kept us toasty warm (after a couple of failed attempts to start a fire), and the bathroom located just outside the cabin was the perfect refreshment needed.Kitchen is stocked with everything needed! Delicious waffles and coffee was had. The hot plate situation may look a little daunting, but we were able to cook up meals easily.Such a wonderful, peaceful stay! Highly recommend.

    Comfortable, cozy, and cared-for. The Cedarwood cabin was a perfect location for a winter week of reading, writing, napping, playing music and games, and just catching up with ourselves and one another. Making use of the wood stove for heat meant that I could also get warm splitting some logs if I felt like it, but had an ample supply of fuel laid up already.

    Enjoyed the coziness and reading about the owners journey to renovate and restore the historical cabin. Pretty basic amenities for a five-day stay. We left a day early as we were ready to get back to the luxuries of a full kitchen and indoor bathroom, but we did enjoy the cozy fires in the stove and the walks down to the Sandy River every day. Skiied one day at Timberline and just rested and relaxed. Oh, the bed is actually a double, which was a bit uncomfortable for my 6'3 husband, but we made do. I think the listing calls it a queen. We had booked based on that. We loved discovering Koya Kitchen/a roadside attraction a few miles up the highway. Great food, amazing bar menu, including obscure and delicious sakes.

The thoughtful but simplistic decor, the ambient Edison style lighting while listening to big band vinyl by the wood stove hits just right. There's also some great literature about the history of this cabin and specific area of Mt Hood Village which is fantastic.

In retrospect, I think we would have preferred a place in a location where we could have done some exploring/hiking without driving. The cabin is in a quiet, wooded area with other houses around, but there didn't seem to be any trails immediately accessible. Otherwise, fantastic!!
