Mt Hood’s historic Cedarwood Cabin

An authentic Mt Hood cabin hand-built in 1922 and lovingly restored. Simple and rustic and charming! If you love hand-crafted details, you'll fall in love with Mt Hood’s Cedarwood Cabin.

A beautiful enamel woodstove is the centerpiece--perfect for curling upon rainy evenings with a book and blanket.

The comfortable bed sleeps two, and the folding futon couch can offer an additional sleeping spot.

The kitchen is basic, but has tools to turn your groceries into yummy meals: a plug-in hot-plate and microwave, coffee grinder, french press, coffee maker, waffle iron, and an assortment of bowls, dishes and utensils are at the ready—but NO OVEN (just be aware for your grocery planning.) Or enjoy the nearby restaurants and brewpubs of Welches.

This cabin, like all historic cabins, is by design, a rustic and simple structure: It can get chilly in the morning; it has simple cooking set up; and the attached bathroom is just a step out the back door, with sink, shower, and toilet, and electric code lock.

Tucked in a wooded neighborhood just off the main Mt Hood Hwy 26, Cedarwood is conveniently located for all that Mt Hood has to offer. It’s close enough to be in civilization, but also feels like stepping back in time into a private cabin world inside. Guests have found it a magical place to slow down, unwind, unplug, relax. You won't find a TV, but you'll find fun books on hiking and Mt Hood history, places to read, to rest, to reconnect. Fall asleep to the gentle patter of rain.

Lovely cabin

Ian is a spectacular host! The cabin is rustic and cozy and well equipped. Has a lovely history that you can read about when you are there. Loved our mornings on the front porch sipping coffee! Many wonderful hikes in the area-from easy to challenging. Hope to return to this charmer!

Perfect cabin stay!

This was our second time staying at the cedarwood cabin and it was just as charming and cozy as last time. Being able to get out of Portland and spend time here was invaluable. Definitely will be coming back!

Cute cabin

Overall, we enjoyed our stay and would visit again. I loved reading about the history of the cabin.We did wish that the linens were stocked for our visit. 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.

Mount Hood Summit Climb

Stayed 3 nights with two others that used the cabin as a platform to hike Mount Hood. Nice cabin, but the cell service was very limited and there is no WiFi (which was disclosed), but did not realize the cell service was so limited. Otherwise, nice place and owner is very response

Not as secluded as the pics mate it appear. My fault but didn’t realize there’s no stovetop (hot plate and plug in grill sufficed though). Overall cute cabin for rustic experience.

We had a great time staying here for a couple of days! It’s in a really quaint forest community and really sets a great vibe for a trip to the Oregon wilderness.

Nothing Short of Magic

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.

The quintessential cabin experience

We loved staying here, it was rustic, simple and relaxing. I loved the rich history and the care and thought Ian put into making the cabin enjoyable. The selection of books, a beautiful wood stove and a little record player added to the old time vibe. Thanks to host Ian for preserving and sharing this gem with us all.

Hygge

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. Thank you Ian for your care and attention to us and to the cabin!

Rustic, cozy, historical cabin was charming for a winter break

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.

Hidden gem with historical significance!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Cedarwood Cabin! This rustic and romantic location enthralled us with it's history and charm. It transports you back to a simpler time. 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. Host Ian was excellent in communication and really cares about the historical significance of this cabin. It shows in the attention to detail that he gave. We will definitely be returning some day.

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.
