Hear the peaceful Sandy River from this classic knotty pine 1930's mountain cabin with a blue tin roof, located on historic Barlow Trail Rd. This cozy cabin is filled with plants and has vintage & mid century decor. Get cozy by the wood burning stove, original river rock fireplace, and picture windows. Take a soak after a day in the snow in the deeper than average tub in the newly remodeled bathroom.

Enjoy the large kitchen with all new appliances, a tranquil outdoor space with beautiful ferns, cedar trees, sun & shade, a fire pit, and a bbq. Have a meal or enjoy games at the large 6-8 person farmhouse table.

Check out our discounted weekly & monthly rates! This cabin is perfect for a couple, two couples, (3 couples if one sleeps on futon in living room), a friends weekend, or a family. We have 2 bedrooms (1 with Q and 1 with K), a nice Q futon in the living room.

The space is open, yet cozy, charming with a rustic feel, but has modern amenities like dishwasher and newer mattresses. Watch from the large picture windows as the rain or snow falls while you are warmed by the wood stove!

We are set back away from the road amongst lots of trees, but you can hear traffic from Barlow Trail Rd if you are in the front yard or have the front windows open. If you are in the backyard, or only have the river-facing windows open, you mostly hear the river! Our cabin is not on riverfront property, but you can hear the river, as it's just through the trees less than 50 yards away. Our cabin feels secluded, but we do have two somewhat distant neighbors. You can't see them in the spring/summer due to foliage, but in the winter you can see them through the trees.
Under 20 min drive to Govt Camp, 5 min to Welches Thriftway grocery.

HEAT: you can heat the main living area in the cabin without using the wood stove to about 65 degrees, and the bedrooms to 72, by using the electric baseboard heater near the record player, the plug in heater, and the very warm bedroom wall heaters. Some guests found they needed to use the wood stove to be comfortable in the living room area, so please keep this in mind. Although there is electric heat, the wood stove is guaranteed warmth! The wood stove can heat the entire home on it's own if you read the instructions in the cabin and keep it going. In fact, it gets too hot at times! If you plan to use the wood stove and not the electric heaters, we provide wood for you, but please bring your own kindling & newspaper, which can be found at the Brightwood Store near the cabin for $2.99.

We have a high chair and Graco pack n play board books and toys for those with little ones.

    Nicely appointed and comfortable. Could not get the TV or record player to work. That was a little disappointing especially at night when there was nothing to do.

    We had a nice stay in this very clean, remodeled cabin. Very difficult to locate however - one street name in VRBO directions is incorrect. Would also recomment outdoor light in driveway. Thanks!

    We thought the cabin was lovely. It was our last stop before heading home and I think it was my favorite place we had stayed the last 10 days! It was roomy, welcoming, in a beautiful location, and just a great experience. Thank you!

    This cabin was beautiful. It was a perfect place for us to end our week in Oregon. We were able to make breakfast before our hikes and dinner in the evening. All the tools needed to cook were available. Thank you so much!!

    My two sons and I loved staying here. We made a big dinner together in the wonderfully stocked kitchen, played games at the table, enjoyed a movie in the living room, and loved exploring the yard. Such a comfortable, cozy place!

    We (2 couples) had an amazing stay here! Everything deserves high marks — this sweet little cabin was meticulously clean, tastefully decorated, comfortable, and quite spacious. There is also a very nice outdoor space and a functional, well-stocked kitchen. We all agreed that we’d come back in a heartbeat!

    Perfect size cabin for a weekend away with a well stocked kitchen and lots of nearby activities. We went for some hikes and spent the day at Trillium swimming. Super close to the Thriftway and gas station, and the Brightwood market has tons of essentials too. It’s not river front but you can find river access trails just in the next neighborhood. Can’t wait to come back in winter for some snow play!
