Please go to our video tab at the top of the page to see the views and setting from the riverside of the cabin….

Panoramic views of the Sandy River from the great room, dining room and kitchen.

An unforgettable mountain retreat where the views, sounds and smells of the river and trees will reconnect you to your senses….

Sink into the serene and charming Wildwood River Cabin - an ideal mountain getaway less than an hour's drive from Downtown Portland. Just a few feet in front of the Sandy River, the cabin sits nearly secluded on its aged lot amongst towering fir, pine and cedar trees. From the great room you will see and hear the water as it gently winds its way down the mountain.

The knotty pine walls, vaulted ceilings and custom pine woodwork throughout the cabin make it an especially warm and cozy retreat for you and your loved ones. The open great room includes a clear-glass woodstove and a wall of windows offering a panoramic view of the river through the wildwoods. Outside, take a soak in the hot tub under the trees while sinking into the sights, smells and sounds of the mountain.

We warmly welcome you to the Wildwood River Cabin for a treat that will relax and restore you...

Your love and sensitivity are pervasive in this cabin. Thank you for creating this refuge from a crazy world. We feel renewed and recharged to face it again.
Many blessings, Doug and Teresa

* Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us. Just a few weeks here, oh no, it was just a few days that felt like weeks of calm and peace. Can’t wait to return to your wonderful river retreat!
Linda & Christy & Lucille P.S. A very dog-friendly place.

* What a beautiful home you have here! We were in awe as we entered the cabin. The entire setting was restful and replenished the spirit. Our family had a wonderful time and thoroughly enjoyed our time here. Thank you. We hope to be back again.
The Mellin Family

* What a perfect peaceful honeymoon spot after a frantic wedding-planning month! We spent most of the week in the kitchen (and hot tub!) We will miss the sound of the river and the silence of the cell phones! We’ll be back for anniversaries!!
The Brand-New Vogt’s

* This place is so beautiful we did not want to leave. The kids and dog had so much fun playing in the yard with the snow and throwing rocks in the river. Thank you for sharing your home!
The Kind Carson Family

* The view out of the window every morning is so peaceful and serene. The weekend was the calm and restful mini vacation that we were really needing. Thank you, we will be back.
Dave and Terri

* Wonderful, splendid, pleasant, amazing, beautiful, cozy, warm… The sound of the river is soothing to my ears… the kitchen was too inviting, ate way too much good food, hot tub was hot, river was cold…the warmth of the surroundings made us both feel at home. The selection of games in the closet is fantastic.. Yahtzee is my new favorite game, as were the horseshoes.. so much fun!! Got a lot accomplished before 10am.. more than back in the city! Will definitely be back soon…best wishes Adam & Suzy

*Thank you for a lovely place to enjoy this beautiful wilderness. We’ll be back again and again. – Jen & Pete

*Wonderful. Relaxing. Idylic. Rested – couldn’t ask for more. Warm Thanks, Zoe & Lura

Such a tranquil place

This place is perfect for a romantic getaway, a girls weekend, or a nice solo moment. The house is well stocked and always clean. The hot tub is very private and perfectly located with views of the river. We have been here twice already and will be repeat customers for a long time!

Great Weekend Getaway!

Enjoyed our 2 night stay. Very comfy cozy cabin with neighboring houses visible, but felt private enough. Side windows in living room could use some coverings, but wast a big deal. The fireplace made the evening vibe even better!

Gorgeous setting, very clean, great amenities

We came out to the mountain for my husband’s birthday with some friends. This cabin was perfect! Very cozy with lots of thoughtful touches. We loved the fireplace and the hot tub. The hot tub was clean and really relaxing. It is separate from the house so you feel like you’re alone in the woods. Would absolutely stay again!

Absolutely AMAZING

The host was above and beyond, she was super helpful on finding the place and making sure we were taking care of. The cabin felt like home as sure as we walked in. The view from the living room was beautiful and even better from the hot tub. I would highly recommend this place to anyone. Thanks again for such an incredible trip. You definitely will see me staying there again and again. It’s a must see place

Amazing cabin by the river!

We had a wonderful stay over New Years in the cabin. It was cozy with extra blankets and comfortable beds. We had everything we needed for cooking and it was only 20 minutes to skiing and sledding. The cabin is extremely quiet with only hearing the river at night. The hot tub at night in the woods was so relaxing! We hope to come again.

Rejuvenating Retreat

Absolutely beautiful escape. Listening to the river with a crackling wood fire going, or soaking in the hot tub that over looks the wooded expanse leading to the river views, surrounded by the sounds of nature provided an absolutely needed recharge. Everything I needed was available, the communication from the host was fantastic, the store was conveniently located, and I will definitely be coming back.

Awesome stay, as advertised

Everything was great. The only thing is check out procedures seemed a tad excessive. We felt like we weren’t sure if we should take showers or use hand towels because we were trying to have all towels and linens cleaned before we left in the morning as per the instructions and it caused our morning to feel a little hectic.

This is my 3rd year in a row renting this cozy little cabin, and I’m ready to book the 4th. It has everything I want, and nothing extra. Impeccably clean house and hot tub. Make sure you open the sliding door and let the sound of the river wash over you.

Magical Getaway

10/10 all the way! My partner picked this place for our anniversary — I gave him just 3 criteria: king bed, hot tub, fire pit; he added his own 4th criteria of a BBQ — and he REALLY delivered!! I was blown away when we got there; I already knew it was going to be beautiful, but the pics did NOT do it justice at all! The property is gorgeous… yes, the walking path is there, but I really think the amount of traffic it gets just depends on the season; we were there for a rainy February weekend, so not much at all. Though we did plan to go and unplug, we found ourselves wanting to watch a movie while we had some ribs smoking on the BBQ, and that’s where we messed up — we didn’t bring any laptops or streaming devices!! But the cabin has basic cable available (we were definitely taken back in time for that one!) and a DVD player with a choice of about 10 very different DVDs, which really just added to its charm. We also really enjoyed the little shopping center up the road with the amazing Mexican restaurant.last but not least, I really appreciated Kiki’s communication and kindness. We will definitely be booking this cabin again :)

Mt. Hood Getaway.

My husband and I found this cabin to be so cozy and comfortable. The cabin was so clean. The hot tub was fantastic after long day hikes, and even better after cold plunges in the river. We were so happy to find the bed to be very comfortable for these older bodies. It definitely felt like a home away from home!!

This is a great place to stay! Wonderful location - feels secluded but still close to everything we could possibly need. Beautiful cabin with comfy beds and gorgeous windows. Clean. Easy to get to.

About the host

Hosted by Lili

Host profile image
I'm a small business owner living with my family in Portland Oregon. I practice Acupuncture + Chinese Medicine and absolutely LOVE the outdoors! Pictured here with me is our son Jensen and our malamute puppy Akino. :)

Why they chose this property

We chose Mount Hood because of it's proximity to Portland and all of the wonderful outdoor activities available there. In less than an hour we can be up at the cabin enjoying the hot tub by the river!

We chose the property because out of all of the properties on the market at the time, this one by far had the best views of the river and the most privacy/ seclusion. The sounds of the river too were so loud you could even here them throughout the cabin!

What makes this property unique

This property is stunning - we fell in love the moment we passed from the driveway side of the property to the river side of the property. Evergreens and poplars cover almost the full acre of land, the views and sounds of the river were so potent and in front of the cabin across the river there is green space - all giving my partner and I the sense that we were a million miles from the Portland although we'd been in the office only a hour or so before getting there!

Words, even pictures, can't fully describe what a peaceful and restorative experience this place offers. This, combined with the fact that it takes less than an hour to get there from downtown Portland, and we were sold!
