About this property

Salmon River Waterfront Cabin w/ Hot Tub! Dog Friendly!

Nestled right on the banks of the pristine Salmon River, our updated and restored Mt. Hood cabin sits on a private 1/2 acre amid old growth forest. At the cabin you experience what it feels like to be away from it all, with the sound of river and the sights and smells of the forest.
Our idyllic cabin boasts a full covered front porch featuring a custom-built outdoor dining table and Adirondack chairs. Additionally, there is the covered side patio with hot tub and gas BBQ. Inside you will find a beautiful river rock fireplace with woodstove, knotty pine wood walls, a fully updated/stocked kitchen and comfortable beds.
This is your gateway cabin to all the adventuring your heart desires: ski the slopes, mountain bike the Sandy Ridge Trail system, or hike any number of beautiful trails through old growth forests. If relaxation is more up your alley, our cabin has you covered too. Sit by the river, soak in the hot tub, relax with a good book by the wood burning stove, play a board game, complete a puzzle or spin some vinyl on the vintage stereo. We also offer smart T.V. and high-speed WiFi for streaming your favorite shows or if need be, to complete some work.

Cozy Cabin
This place is a gem. Close to town while still feeling quite remote. Very cozy with many amenities. While it was a bit cold and wet to enjoy the beautiful firepit seting by the river, we still enjoyed our stay immensely. Will probably book again in the spring/summer

Perfect Getaway
The cabin was perfect for a weekend getaway with friends. It is simultaneously cozy and plenty spacious for a group. We played games and listened to the awesome record collection. One highlight was a completely functional and stocked kitchen that allowed us to cook shared meals all weekend. The location is wonderful, tucked in the woods right by the river, but only a two minute drive to the grocery store. Vince was attentive and great at communicating info during our stay. This was one of the better rentals I have experienced. Would stay again in a heartbeat.

Home away from home!
This property was ideal for our quick visit to the mountain. We brought our friends from England who wanted to see snow! The location by the Salmon River was perfect! We enjoyed the short drive to Timberline and cocktails by the firepit each evening!

The perfect getaway cabin
Look no further if you want a perfect cabin getaway. This cabin had everything we needed and more. We especially appreciated the access to firewood, two fire pits, a hot tub, and the riverfront property. We celebrated my birthday here, which was perfect because the cabin had a huge assortment of vinyl records and games to play. We had everything we needed for relaxation and for entertainment.

Beautiful home in the woods
Loved the house. The record player was amaxing and there were lots of different records to listen to. The kitchen was big and had everything we needed to cook on our stay. The beds were super comfortable and the property was right on the river. You could walk down a path and get to the river bank. Very beautiful. We will be bavk this winter.

Serene Getaway
This was the ideal getaway for our active family of four. The location is simply perfect for completely unwinding and connecting with nature. We could stay at the cabin to sit riverside, play games, read, or just be. The location is convenient for hiking beautiful trails, kayaking, or visiting Hood River. The cabin was well equipped, comfortable, and spacious. Three full bathrooms was a plus! We will definitely come back!

What a gem
There's nothing quite like this place with its old-timey cabin feel, yet it's up-to-date with conveniences and cleanliness. It's close to town, yet feels so remote. This might be the perfect spot! We thoroughly enjoyed this place. The fire-pit by the river made it 100x more special.

About the host

Hosted by Vince Onstad

Host profile image
Having grown up in Montana I have a great appreciation for the mountains and being outdoors. In the early 2000's I was living in Alaska flying bush planes where I met my future wife who also shares my love of mountains. She moved to Portland to finish her degree and I followed. We ended up settling in Portland and started a family! With two young kids we decided it was time to get back to our mountain roots and we purchased the cabin. We love coming to it year-round as every season has something to offer.

Why they chose this property

Simply put, it's awesome! I realized the moment I pulled in the driveway it was the one. I really didn't feel like I needed to see the inside of the cabin, the location alone was enough for me. As it was, the cabin needed some love and I have since carefully brought it back to life, while honoring its original features. It is truly a magical place that I love taking my friends and family for any reason and I think you will too!

What makes this property unique

The cabin is an original that cannot be recreated. It has a sense of seclusion and privacy while being so close to all the mountain amenities.
