Salmon River Cabin - Private, Hot Tub, Huge Deck/Yard, Outdoor Shower, Fire Pit

Great hot tub and wood burning stove. Well stocked kitchen.

I booked this cabin for my best friends birthday for a group of us and it was exactly what we were looking for. It’s rustic and really has that cabin feel which was perfect for this trip. It’s an old home, nothing fancy, and that’s part of why we loved it. It fit all 8 of us well and the beds were comfortable.Keep in mind in the winter, it’s pretty cold and took a little while to heat up when we got there but it ended up becoming nice and cozy after awhile. The river is close by, just a quick few min walk however at this time of the year, after all the floods, it was pretty rough out there. The wood deck was knocked over too. Still, super pretty and a lot of nature which we still enjoyed.While we loved this place there were a couple things I would like to leave feedback on. The grill was covered in mold, and understandable if not used often but we did not want to clean that, I truly felt it should have been cleaned before our stay. And second, the hot tub was not very hot. The first night it was okay but quickly got cold but the second night it was even colder. We weren’t really sure what was going on with that. Overall, it was a great stay and I would totally stay again!

The cabin was great. We enjoyed playing games at the large kitchen table. Plenty of space to hangout and relax.

Great spot for a family!

Beautiful location, and our basic needs were met. This property is definitely more of a cabin vibe compared to comparably priced rentals in the Welches area, which are cleaner, nicer, and more up-to-date. Nothing wrong with that; just have the right expectation. The hot tub was excellent, and the hot water in the house held up, which was helpful. It took a couple hours to heat up the house after arrival with the baseboard heaters and small mobile electric ones provided.We felt we should share with other renters the reasons we couldn’t give 5 stars:- The fireplace remote batteries were completely dead with no replacements available and we had to go out and buy AAs to start the fireplace.- Dishes in the cupboard were dirty on arrival, with food residue still on them (several plates, several cups, and several forks). The cutting knifes were dull.- Substantial mold was growing on the cooking surfaces of the gas grill.- Sheets on the beds were very nice, but we all agreed the pillows were flat and the mattresses too soft. Preferences vary, of course.- Watered down hand soap reduces effectiveness.

We had a board retreat here and it was perfect! Great location, a lot of separate spaces to chill when you needed to think but a nice living room where we could all do our work together and a huge table where we could eat together. The setting is amazing!

Very well equipped home. Nice location. Just a little further from the river than I thought. Tons of beds/sleeping options. Would definitely rent again

Hot tub clean tv a little bit of problem trail needs a little work but would rent again as we had fun nice quite location.

We had a fantastic time at this gem! The house and backyard are spacious, just as pictured. There are neighbors but it feels very private. The walk to the river out back is like a very small hike but entirely worth it. We were there every day and the cold water was refreshing on the 90 degree days! Inside, the kitchen is nicely equipped, open but not too open. The den is an open space too but the noise doesn't carry to other parts of the main floor. Beds were comfortable - there was a nice mix of flat and firm pillows for all tastes. There is a skylight right above the primary king bed that doesn't have a curtain, so bring your eye mask! We were there in the middle of an unusual heat wave and this house doesn't have A/C. It got chilly in the evenings but even with windows open it took a while for the top floor of the house to cool down after such intense heat. It was fine, but good to know if you are going in the summer and have a low heat tolerance. Also, the power went out while we were there. From reading the binder and talking to the (friendly) neighbor it sounds like this happens now and again. Flashlights were on hand but we did have to drive into town to get a signal to be able to report/check in on the outage. It had a minimal impact on our stay, but something to be aware of if you have anxious travelers. Chris is an excellent communicator and we were grateful check in was so easy after a lot of travel. Highly recommend and would stay again!

We had an amazing trip to Welches! The house was perfectly sized for our group & very comfortable. The hot tub & outdoor shower was awesome. Loved the lathe yard! They offered plenty of supplies & had an easy check out process. A few suggestions-the hot tub cover is very heavy & hard to take on & off, the description about getting to the river & access were misleading. The house was a little “cobwebby” & the upstairs shower was difficult to work. These few things did not impact our amazing stay & we would love to stay again sometime!

We had the best girls trip! River is 5 minute walk away and had a semi private swim hole. We loved the rustic feeling of the house and of course the hot tub! We will definitely be back. We accidentally locked ourselves out after arriving, and the owner was responsive and helped us get into the house within 5 minutes.

We loved the property....very quiet, enjoyed the outside firepit, a bit icy but yhe hot tub was enjoyable, and the river was awesome. Had great sleep, a little surprised that all bedrooms were upstairs but no issue for our group. Wedding at Zigzag Falls and dinner at Timberline was so much fun.

Our family enjoyed the cabin, views, proximity to the mountain and activities in the area. The house was clean and fairly well supplied. We really enjoyed the wood stove, being from GA, it was a delight. The hiking was stellar as well as the short drive to Mt Hood. Our grands really had a blast playing in the yard and exploring near the river. It really is a nice place. The only think I would change are the larger beds, The mattresses seemed like they were out of memory. The bunkbed and twins were more comfortable. All in all we appreciated our stay and benefits of the location. The good news is the couches were pretty comfortable. The owners were great at getting back to us quickly when we needed information or advice.

Property is beautiful. We walked out to the river which was so relaxing. Hot tub was so nice even thogh it was cold out. House is very clean. The beds are so comfortable. Kitchen has everything you could need. Host is very responsive.

Great place to stay. Cozy house, beautiful surroundings and comfortable beds. Will definitely stay here again

The cabin is cozy and well supplied. The property is beautiful and the river close by. We enjoyed our stay immensely! Thank you

Our family had an amazing time at your cabin. We loved the coziness and welcoming, warm feeling of the entire cabin as well as the yard and the Salmon River behind us. The sound of the flowing river was relaxing and we even had a bonus visit of a doe and two fawns one morning. It was an overall fantastic experience! Thank you, from our family. ♥

It was a great cabin for us. Lots of room stayed cool even when the temperatures were in the 90s. Only thing i would chand is the grill needs to have a deep cleaning and gas elements replace.
