Remember those bedtime stories your Mom and Dad read to you? There was always a cute little house where the woodsman lived. Well, this is it. Built in 1927, this historic cabin is located on one-third of an acre in the towering cedars and firs of Mt. Hood; perfect for a weekend family outing, romantic getaway, or a week-long working vacation. Located just past the Resort at the Mountain golf course, The Cedars is far enough from the highway to hear only the sounds of the Salmon River and the wood stove. It is not too secluded, however, as it sits in the midst of a charming neighborhood by the river.
From its wood stove, brick fireplace, and knotted wood-panelled walls, Cedars Cabin is quintessential rustic. Ah, and that old woodsman never had a DVD and CD player, or an iPod dock. He certainly didn't have free WIFI. Settle in on the comfy couch, or take a seat on the back porch and listen to soothing sounds of the Sandy River rushing nearby. Little chilly? Just fire up the other wood stove right there on the porch, make yourself some hot coffee, and relax! You'll also find a collection of games and puzzles.
Nothing is quaint about Cedar's kitchen either. Newly remodeled, it is well-lit, well stocked, and waiting to match your culinary skills from porterhouse to pasta. There's lots of counter space as well for easy prep work, and a microwave for quick snacks. Enjoy your meals at the wooden table for four. Or, hop on the internet and check out the 13 eateries in the Welches area.
Cedars Cabin sleeps four. It has two bedrooms, one with a beautifully crafted door and great big windows with views of the surrounding forest. Both have queen beds with comforters and soft linens. There's one bathroom done in an unmistakably woodsy feel that would make the woodsman proud. Primary Heat source is a gas stove.
Mt. Hood is the perfect place to be in the winter. The Cedars is only a 15 minute drive from Government Camp, 19 miles to Timberline, and 24 miles to Mt. Hood Meadows. In summer, Cedars is just a 5 minute drive from the Salmon River where anglers, kayakers can test their mettle in the cool, rushing waters. Lots of hiking trails too. Wildwood National Forest, with its "Streamwatch" program is close by, not to mention the 31 other hiking trails in the Mount Hood Area.

Truly a quiet mountain getawayGuest: ndmom(Salem, OR)Date of Stay: 06/20/10 Review Submitted: 6/26/10 We had the most relaxing stay away from home at this cozy cabin. It's very clean and comfortable. We went on an easy hike around the Timothy Lake, had lunch at the Timberline Lodge, and then stop at the Trillium Lake. We thoroughly enjoyed the day. Next day we went to the Wildwood Recreation Site and we're so glad we did. It would also be a great place to visit with younger children. Thanks for sharing this wonderful cabin.
The Cedars Cabin on Mt. Hood- A Quiet Mountain GetawayGuest: Elizabeth,Barb and Morgan(Portland, OR)Date of Stay: 06/13/10 Review Submitted: 06/17/10 The cabin exceeded our expectations. Often one worries the 1st time you use a vacation rental. No worries folks! The minute we walked in the door we were at home in the country and well cared for. The living/dining room was well furnished with comfortable chairs and couch. The kitchen was beautiful, well stocked to do some fine cooking. Lots of good restaurants nearby. The beds were comfortable with comforters and soft linens. Everything was clean by ecofriendly products,so no odd smells! Looking for a cabin in the woods, this is it. Many activities close by or simply lounge. Enjoy!
Guest: Shannon61(Eugene, Oregon) Date of Stay: 01/17/10 Review Submitted: 01/17/10 We all thouroughly enjoyed our stay at the cabin - including the fussy dog. She had no problem relaxing in front of the fire, hiking through the woods and snowshoeing up on the mountain where we could actually find snow this year. Very comfortable and well appointed. Thanks!
