About this property

Cedar Creek Hideaway - Secluded, Geodesic Dome Cabin, Woodstove, BBQ, Dogs OK

Cedar Creek Hideaway - Meredith Lodging

Cedar Creek Hideaway is the perfect cabin for a quiet retreat away from the city. Surrounded by tall cedars, two seasonal creeks and the Mt Hood National Forest, a visit to this unique geodesic dome mountain cabin will leave you refreshed and relaxed. Centered on in a secluded setting, take a stroll along the winding driveway and enjoy the scenery or say “hello” to the deer who visit here daily at dawn and dusk. Meander down the trail to the seasonal creek with the waterfall and just sit back and relax.

The unique geodesic shape surrounds you in the vaulted great room with view windows, the fully-equipped kitchen, the woodstove and comfortable log cabin furniture. Step out to the wrap-around deck for socializing, grilling dinner or spending time with friends. Roast marshmallows and recount stories of the day’s explorations at Mt Hood while sitting around the firepit during the evenings.

The first level kids’ space downstairs includes a pool table and Internet TV for evening fun. This secluded cabin is perfect for unwinding and getting away with no cable TV and limited cell service. The Cedar Creek Hideaway is well-suited for one to three couples, a friends’ gathering or one or two families with three bedrooms and a loft (1 queen, 1 twin, 2 bunks with a double and twin each) plus 2 1/2 bathrooms spread out over 3 levels.

Unplugged for stargazing
Great remote spot to watch the stars and be unplugged from your devices. House has satisfactory furnishings but if your idea of staying in and watching Netflix is your jam, this is not the place to stay. Internet works fine, but electronic equipment is dated, missing pieces, and there is no cell service. Kitchen is well stocked with what you need to cook. Accessing the property is difficult for 2wd vehicles - it's up a very steep hill on a gravel road.

Wonderfully unique property in a great location
We were enthralled with the property. Fun, serene, close to the grocery store and Mt. Hood. Wonderful place. Only complaint (this is silly) was that the pool table was quite tight and game rules caused some heated family debate! Would highly recommend it.

peaceful cabin
What a cabin! We loved everything about this place. It was super secluded on the top of a big hill, had two nice bose speakers strategically placed in the dome, and was very quiet. Would definitely go here again.

Peaceful and quiet cabin in the woods!
My husband and I brought our pup for a short stay this summer. We absolutely loved this property. Very quiet, serene, and peaceful - exactly what we were looking for. It had all of the amenities we needed. There were a couple of minor pieces of feedback we sent to the property manager about cleanliness and the check-in code, and they were very responsive. We also loved that this house was close to the grocery store and several hiking trails. We would stay here again!

Cute and private
My family really enjoyed our weekend stay at the Cedar Creek Hideaway! The home is cozy and very private. Had a little trouble accessing the house upon arrival because we didn’t have cell service and no access to email or the app to get the lockbox code. So future guests can learn from me and jot down directions and codes before leaving for your trip!

Beautiful mountain home.
We loved the property and amenities. We were disappointed when the bbq caught on fire because it wasn’t cleaned. We felt safe, but it could have ended in disaster had we not acted quickly.

Woodsy Escape
We love staying at the Geodome! It's location was secluded from the neighbors, while still being really close to everything in Welches. You really felt like you had solitude in the forest. The beds were really comfortable & the kichen had a good mix of utensils & pans/dishes. We have a small issue with the door lock but the folks at Mt Hood Rentals were very helpful in getting it taken care of quickly! Cedar Creek Hideaway was a great base camp for our Mt Hood adventure!

Dome home was unique!
We liked the secluded location. It was super quiet. It does need a few details like, there was a DVD player but no DVD'S and lots of VHS tapes but no VHS player. And the pool table needs a short pool cue to play. The home needs updating for sure but is a good rustic cabin vibe.

Weekend reunion
The house was great for a weekend ski trip reunion with friends. We loved the shape of the house and the spacious outdoors area. Few things to note for future guests - the Wi-Fi is extremely slow. Not a bad thing but came in at about 2mbps when we tested (well under 20 as listed). I was surprisingly able to take zoom calls for work and run some editing software but at lower quality. The cleanliness and communication was not as expected for a full rental agency. There were a few stains and sticky spots on the floor. My group was not bothered by it but rather surprised for the cleaning prices.

Cedar Creek Hideaway Review
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My friends and I stayed at the spot for 2 weeks to ski at Mt. Hood in July. We had an overall great experience. It was generally comfortable and spacious and an absolutely BEAUTIFUL location. The internet is garbage. Might as well not have it. The place is marketed to large groups but the internet can barely support 1 person. That was extremely frustrating. We had some bear issues with the garbage outside. A new bear-protective garbage solution could be great.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was an incredible stay. Secluded with visions of an awe inspiring night sky. No better place to spend with a group of people you're trying to build a bond with. Even you decide to come out here on your own to get away from the madness of it all, this cabin comes decked with a collection of books which draws envy and respect. Firewood is provided to you and a grill is available for use along with pots and pans to spare. Although difficult to find, Mt. hood Vacation Rentals has the foresight to provide you with written directions which are straight forward and lead you directly to the cabin. Highly Recommend!

Cedar Creek stay
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The location of this property is idea - very private and plenty to explore on the 7 acres. The house is definitely funky and original so charming but not luxurious. The master is open to the downstairs so can get noisy if you have kids who stay up later.

Awesome Weekend in the Forest
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We rented the Cedar Creek Hideaway for my husband's 30th and we had a wonderful time! The acoustics in the house made the weekend that much more interesting. It's close enough to Thrift Way in case you run out of any food or drink necessities and it's a quick drive to some awesome hiking. The house was clean and the master bath alone is worth booking this cabin! My ONLY complaint is that there were some mouse droppings in some of the pots and pans. If you're looking for a trip with friends and family that is somewhat close to Portland yet secluded enough to feel like you get the true "in the woods" experience then this is the place! Looking forward to going back!

Fun Get Away Cabin
Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We stayed in this cabin Friday afternoon until Sunday mid morning. It was a bit difficult to find in the dark, but once you get there, it's not a problem getting to and from. We fully enjoyed our stay. There was plenty of room. It is a cozy cabin away from other houses. It is nice that they only have one TV. More family time playing the numerous board games and it was so nice to listen to music on the great surround sound system in the house! Super bonus! The only thing that was upsetting was the amount of mouse droppings in the kitchen cabinets and drawers. It seems like they are aware of the rodent problem though. It would have been nice if all of the droppings were cleaned up prior to our arrival. We had to wash any dish/silverware/cup that we used due to the droppings. It was inconvenient and a bit gross, but we didn't let it ruin our stay there. I would recommend this cabin to a friend regardless.
