Welches, Oregon
Thistle Dew
Thistle Dew, a completely renovated historic cabin along the Salmon River in Welches has been the center of Mt Hood memories for more than a century. Settle in at this cozy cabin with river views from most every room, the riverfront back deck and the grassy backyard. During the summer months dip your toes in the cool river water, during the late summer and early fall watch the salmon spawning with a backdrop of fall colors and in the winter, stay cozy and warm inside with a frosting of snow along the river's edge. Relax in the private, outdoor hot tub with Salmon River views.
The cabin setting is ideal for a romantic getaway with the cozy wood-filled interior and the sounds of the river flowing by. The spacious en suite bedroom includes a king bed, twin bunk beds and attached bathroom. The modern kitchen includes a full-size refrigerator, range with cooktop and full-size oven, microwave, toaster and all of the pots, pans, dishes, serveware and utensils you need to prepare a fantastic meal. Grill out on the back deck on the gas BBQ with the sounds and views of the river as your backdrop.
Stay warm and cozy inside with the ambiance of a natural wood fire in the woodstove and the electric heat. During the summer months open the windows for the natural air conditioning of a cooling cross breeze. You will love the natural sunlight that streams in through the great room skylights all day long and and the nighttime view of the stars. The relaxing riverfront location will lure you to spend all of your time outside just gazing at the river with a good book, good company and a glass of good wine.

We had a lovely experience at this cabin. It was even decorated for Christmas! Super clean and well stocked. The sound of the river while enjoying the hot tub was just what we came for. Highly recommend for a couples getaway.
My husband and I loved staying here last month! The cabin was cozy and had everything we needed. The bed was so so soft and comfy and it was great waking up right on the water.
This was the perfect place to stay. The river is right there and nice to sit and listen to, and catch a glimpse of a fish swimming by every now and then. Close to several hiking options too. We really enjoyed our time there!
Thistle Dew lived up to our expections. The location was perfect for our activities. We really enjoyed the outside sitting area by the Salmon River. Saw a trout swim upstream, mergansers playing around, and kingfishers. Highly recommend!
If you are looking for a place where you can relax and enjoy the scenery, this place is for you. Tucked away in Welches, it’s close to all the Mt Hood activities, but very private. With your own access to the river and the hot tub, it was a nice place to relax after hiking. The kitchen is a little sparse, but otherwise a great stay
We were so pleased to find such a beautiful cozy cabin with a wonderful river front yard. The interior of the cabin was woodsy, yet modern and it had everything you need. We highly recommend it and will probably book another stay in the near future.
Perfect getaway for my husband and I. Loved the river, so peaceful! House was great for the 2 of us, had everything we needed!
The check in was a little bumpy they didnt provide a number to call and i did not receive the email prior, but once we were in the property it was absolutely lovely. Perfect for the weekend, close to all the hiking spots and just what we needed.
We enjoyed our stay for a few nights! The river view and listening to the river was so peaceful. Very quiet area as we hardly heard anyone else. Cabin was spotless and had all the amenities we needed!
This was a perfect spot to enjoy our time in Oregon!
As soon as you walk through the front door, you are immediately taken into a different world. The river behind the house is absolute perfection. I had the windows open the whole time & it was the perfect soundtrack to the relaxing weekend I needed. Plenty of hiking trails within driving distance, and when I wasn't hiking I was sitting by the river or in the hot tub. I can't wait to come back!
LOVE THIS PROPERTY!! WILL BE BACK FOR SURE
Loved the fire pit and the geese that came by to feed around us. The Hot Tub was wonderful and just the sound of the river was fabulous! Thanks for sharing! We definitely had a good time!
Checked all the boxes for what I wanted and needed for relaxation. Love the river view. My only recommendation for us chefs is better pans. Bless you.
Didn’t want to leave. Everything was perfect
had my boyfriend in from Boston and he wanted a perfect PNW forest getaway and this cabin was exactly that. cute, clean, comfy and easy to find this cabin was just what we wanted!
This cabin was amazing. Tucked in the woods, along a beautiful river, but still close to amenities. There are other cabins nearby, but you’d never know it. It’s so quiet and peaceful. Highly recommend.
We loved the place and would stay again. Didn’t love the 5pm check in time but other than that 5 star.
Everything was perfect. The sound of the River is so relaxing. Thank you for a wonderful time
