About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire cabin to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Mt Hood’s historic Cedarwood Cabin

Stoke the woodstove and watch the fire, read, write, relax. Head out to nearby trails or hit the ski slopes. Then return to your own private basecamp. Hand-built in 1922 and lovingly restored. Simple and rustic. If you love hand-crafted details, you'll fall in love with Mt Hood’s Cedarwood Cabin.

A beautiful enamel woodstove is the centerpiece--with firewood provided!

The queen-sized bed sleeps two, and the folding futon couch can offer an additional sleeping spot. Two sleeping bags and extra blankets provided for slumber-party style sleeping (or forts).

The kitchen is basic, but has tools to turn your groceries into great meals: a plug-in hot-plate and griddle (no oven), makes for classics like pasta dinners or hotcakes and omelet breakfasts. Microwave, coffee grinder, french press, and an assortment of bowls, dishes and utensils are at the ready. Or enjoy the nearby restaurants and brewpubs of Welches.

For travelers accustomed to more modern accommodations, not to worry, you can fall in love here, too. But please know that this cabin, like all historic cabins, can get chilly in the morning, has simple cooking set up, and is by design, a rustic and simple structure.

Cedarwood is 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.

An absolute gem
Hats off to Ian, this place is amazing. He has gone above and beyond to keep this place authentic to it's history and location from the cabin itself down to the record selections. The first thing you notice is the beautiful wood stove with plenty of kindling and wood provided. The bed complete with down comforter and pillows was comfy and toasty. A microwave, hotplate, electric griddle and waffle iron give you plenty of cooking options. Shower was hot with great pressure. You are provided guide books with plenty of hikes, restaurant recommendations and a history of the property. Our 5 year old excitedly asked if this could be our "new winter headquarters" and we completely agree.

Cozy rustic cabin
Cedar and woodsmoke aromas. Enjoyed building fires as the source of heat and charming atmosphere. Just one quick step through back “porch” to the thoroughly modern (and heated!) bathroom adds to the reminder of days gone by—but it’s so much more comfortable now! Great place to unplug. Let the fire die down and snuggle under the feather comforter through the night. Wake to warm coffee in bed and pancakes on the griddle (if your partner gets up first!) 😉

We loved our stay at this cabin! It was so relaxing and cozy. The games and record player were a big hit with our five year old. Also, the host was very quick to respond when I asked for a few more towels. Highly recommend staying here!

Rustic, comfortable cabin. Specifically stated no fires and neighbors had fires going both nights we were there, also barking dogs kept it from being nice and quiet at night. A shame. Other than that great stay.

Lovely Rustic Cabin
Cedarwood provided the cozy, rustic cabin experience we’ve been looking for!! We will definitely go back. A couple of tips for people arriving after dark like we did: 1. We never saw the motel sign in the dark. Just watch for the deer sign, and the turnoff is IMMEDIATELY after it. 2. The parking spot is on the main road, BEFORE you get to Shadow Lane.

Rustic comfort in the trees
The Cedarwood cabin is a lovely place to call home for two nights! It was clean, homey, and simple to check into. The wood stove is beautiful with plenty of wood to keep things nice and toasty. We made beef stew in our instant pot and enjoyed nice hot showers with great water pressure. The big band records provided in the cabin really are the perfect touch. The 1 pm check-out time offered us time to wake up slowly and also tidy up the cabin with love before leaving. 2 things I feel I need to share though: First, as two adults with chronic pain/disability, we had a hard time finding comfortable sturdy chairs to sit in. (Rocking chairs were so cute but rickety, and the futon was slanted/deep and hard to sit upright) Also, the bed frame didn't feel sturdy for our weight and ended up breaking on us while we were napping on it. I would definitely keep this in mind if you aren't smaller adults, and maybe bring your own chair to sit in if you are concerned about options. SECOND: Though the bed did break, we reached out to the host Ian and got a very timely and friendly response, and Brent a co-host was at the cabin within an hour to fix the bed for us. He was kind and made quick work of it. While we were a bit nervous to sleep on the bed again, it held up for the rest of our stay. 5 stars for communication and emergency assistance! We will definitely be back if a more solid bed frame is added to the cabin, but I highly recommend the Cedarwood, overall.

Fun cabin experience
We so enjoyed our one night stay at the cabin! My only suggestion would be to add something to the listing or check-in information that you have to step outside to get to the bathroom. Or at least a little sign by the door. We got in late and it was dark and perhaps it took us a few minutes longer than it should have to figure out the situation. But we would definitely recommend it to anyone looking to get away!

Can’t get better than this
My partner and I stayed for a night as an early birthday celebration, and we were absolutely smitten with the cabin. Absolutely loved that there was no tv and no Wi-Fi, the fireplace/oven thing was a delight and so warm. Very clean, has all the basic comforts and a little extra. We will definitely book again!
