Quaint cabin in a unique location for exploring Eastern Oregon
We had a wonderful few days at the cabin which had everything we needed, the cabin is very comfortable. Cam and Christine were wonderful hosts, they are very knowledgeable of the area and had some great suggestions for us of places to see. It is located in a beautiful quiet forest, we could walk straight out onto the forest roads for our evening walks down to prairies and creeks and it is ideally situated for access to shops/restaurants (Bottom of the Barrel!) in Lakeview and then exploring Lake Albert, Hart Mountain etc. Night skies that go on forever as well. Perfect location and accommodation for a relaxing family holiday to enjoy the majestic scenery and wildlife that is Eastern Oregon. We look forward to returning, thank you Cam and Christine!

Perfect place to unplug
Beautiful property, cozy cabin and great location for day trips to local activities. Our family enjoyed spending time here playing games, reading and talking around the fire pit. The cabin is dated but has a peaceful old charm to it. We would love to visit again and spend more time. Note: Kitchen is a little small to prepare bigger meals for a family. Plan simple or BBQ outside.

White tail cabin
Cam, is a wonderful man, he came and checked us in, gave us the info we needed, said if we needed anything to let him know. After reading past reviews I can tell you the White tail cabin has a great shower. Both of us were able to shower and not run out of hot water. And after a day of digging sunstones it felt amazing. We did find the double bed to be way to soft for our liking the first night, but the twin beds were much firmer, and slept like rocks the next 2 nights. Thank you, Cam We enjoyed your place very much!! Keep up the great work!!

Another great trip
5 of us rented both cabins for a several day stay during some training. Cam, the host, was always responsive and offered excellent communication. These are cabins in the high desert so they are rustic and not cottages. We trained outdoors all day with a lot of gear. Storage was adequate and the shower kept up with our demands. A quick 20ish minute drive into town for supplies kept us stocked up. There is no cellphone connectivity so you need to drive into town. Thanks again for a great experience.

Great cabin
The host and cabin are great and met our needs perfectly. We had four men with gear for training at a nearby facility. While the cabin is small the outside space and abundant parking made it seem larger. The cabin is a cabin in the high desert, expect wilderness type things. The grill was stocked with charcoal and lighter fluid. The kitchen is small but contains all the cooking things you’ll need. The water was always hot even with four guys showering after training. The grounds are fantastic, gorgeous Oregon high desert. About 25 minutes from Lakeview. We chose the cabin over the two motel options in Lakeview and were very glad we did. We will stay again the next time we train at the nearby facility.

Private and peaceful
The rustic cabin was definitely rustic and you felt like you stepped back to a time where life was slower and simpler. Was a great jumping off point for us to explore the area - Hart mtn refuge and hot springs, Plush, Adel, Lakeview, various reservoirs. Cam was available to answer any questions. Definitely recommend the rustic cabin if you're looking for some down time to rest and reconnect. Great place for long walks and sunsets.

Perfect Eastern OR getaway!
Staying at Cam and Christine's cabin with our family for 3 nights was magical! If you like get away from it all and explore this is the place for you. The gorgeous hikes nearby just minutes from the cabin exceeded our expectations, and when we ventured away from the cabin to the desert (sunstones and Hart mountain) coming back to their mountain retreat was just what you needed. The cabin was cozy, clean, and had everything we needed! We are already planning a trip back! -The Christophers

Lovely place, lovely people!
When you book Cam and Christine's Whitetail cottage, you get comfort, quiet, privacy, and so, so much south-central Oregon beauty! But mostly you get Cam and Christine, who are wonderfully welcoming and full of ideas of things to do and places to go -- don't hesitate to chat them up with your interests! There's a little secret, too: Cam is an accomplished and well-known professional musician, so whenever we want to relive our nights at Whitetail, during which we listened to his CDs, all we have to do is put one on the stereo, or look him up on one of the music services. We hope to be back someday! --Ellen and Ken

Romantic Weekend
It was exactly as shown in the pictures. A cute rustic cabin in the mountains. No tv, limited cell phone signal, no internet, a fireplace, it was perfect! The beds were comfortable. Our dogs got to play in the woods on the property. Perfect weekend away from city life.

We absolutely had a blast and really appreciate the fact that we were able to bring our pets along with us. The hosts were very gracious and the place was tidy and had everything we could possibly need to cook with, sleep, etc. I would recommend the white tail cabin to anybody who’s looking to get out of town to some peace and quiet and check out the Oregon outback.

Peace on Earth
As described, this cabin is small and rustic but it has everything needed for comfort. The kitchen is very well equipped with any cooking utensils that may be required. It was wonderful to sit on the deck, under the cool of the pines on a hot summer day, and watch hummingbirds at the feeder. It is a place of peace and quiet. And, the surrounding mountains were quite empty of people and so beautiful!

Wonderful, private gem in an undiscovered area
This cabin was everything I hoped it might be: clean, quiet, private, and very well equipped! Everything was provided for cooking, keeping warm (even the fireplace was ready!), exploring the wonderful area (maps and books), and relaxing. My two grown sons and I spent a fantastic weekend exploring the area during the day, and relaxing in the cabin at night. Our hosts were very friendly, gracious, and accommodating.. I enjoyed chatting with them very much.

Rustic cabin retreat quiet setting
The place is nestled in the pine trees and very quiet. It is rustic, not a hotel room or Bed-n-Breakfast fastidious cleanliness. It was as advertised a get away with character. We ran early in the morning on the abandoned old highway not a soul around except for occasional cattle and wildlife. We squeezed in four people and all our gear that was a bit tight but do-able.

Just a quick stopover in a beautiful, quite cabin just 10 minutes off Highway 395
We needed an intermediate stop on a long drive to the eclipse. I found Cam and Christine's cabin on VRBO and it looked perfect. After a long day driving we pulled in and found a cute cabin with everything we needed. Christine came down to greet us and made sure we had everything we needed. The cabin is in a ponderosa pine grove at the edge of a large meadow. We went for a short walk in the evening to check out the area. We saw a few birds and wildflowers while walking and were pleasantly surprised to fine the cabin stocked with bird, wildflower, and other local nature field books. There were also lots of maps and other resources for people wanting to explore the area. I was sorry we didn't have time to hang out for a few days.
