About this property

Special 3rd night free stay before May 23rd WiFi Level 2 electric car charger

In its post-war heyday, the Barlow Cabin—on the route of the historic Barlow Road in Government Camp—hosted everyone from Scandinavian royalty to the world’s top ski racers.

Movie star Rock Hudson stopped in for a drink during the filming of Bend in the River (1952). The cabin was built in 1946 by Timberline Lodge’s first publicist, George Henderson, as a compact, convivial base camp and gathering place for skiers and climbers and, eventually, his own children and grandchildren. Now it's your turn to immerse yourself in Mt Hood history!

This rustic cabin offers Pendleton blankets, down comforters, a cozy wood-burning fireplace, a furnace and now air conditioning! There is also a smart TV with Hulu and WiFi to stream. You can also hook up your iPod / iPhone to the stereo to play your choice of music. The Crosstown Trail, with its links to the Westleg Road and Glade and Alpine ski trails, is a short walk / ski away. Walk to dinner in Government Camp or stay in to cook in the small but well-equipped kitchen. On the walls are photos and memorabilia from the 1930s and ’40s depicting Government Camp’s emergence as a recreation destination. While you are visiting, be sure to page through George’s own Mount Hood memoir; Lonely On The Mountain.

The living room, kitchen, small bathroom with shower, and kids’ bedroom (bunk beds) are downstairs. Upstairs are three small bedrooms and a half-bath. One upstairs bedroom has twin beds, one has a queen bed, and the third bedroom has one queen bed and one twin. Capacity is limited to parties of eight or fewer.

Guests are welcome to charge their electric vehicle at our conveniently located Level 2 car charger. Please note that the Barlow Cabin is not wheelchair accessible, and pets are not allowed.

Fabulous vintage cabin!

Great cabin in the heart of Government Camp, with easy access to the mountain trails for snowshoeing and the village for fun. The home is very well appointed with well stocked kitchen games, smart TV, Wi-Fi, wood-burning fireplace and great gas heater for back up. Thank you we really enjoyed our stay!

Bachelor Weekend

It was all good, it’d be nice if there was at least a dryer for clothes, but all is fine, water heater for the sinks maybe wasn’t working or turned off. Other than that 9/10

Great cabin and location year round

Very sweet cabin, not a lot of room to do more than sleep and sit around (ie. Not much table space for games) but its incredibly close to all the shops and cafes in town. also incredibly close to ski lifts and ski bowl for year round activities. Biggest challenge was that the check in process was not provided clearly through VRBO beforehand, and they were separately emailed which wasnt expected. All around a wonderful place to stay.

Quaint, clean cabin

An old, but quaint and cozy cabin. Comfortable beds and linens. Clean and nicely kept. Cool old photos on walls to look at. Had a big dump of snow so has happy to have chains to get out of the slightly sloped driveway.

Great stay, but had to cut it short

we loved the Barlow cabin. Unfortunately, our second day there was a power outage from government camp all the way to Sandy, and we had to check out early. Carol and the team were great and very communicative the whole time we hope to come back up as soon as we can make it

great location for a rustic 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: This is a sweet cabin with four bedrooms. It is VERY rustic. We had a problem with the wood burning stove--which let a ton of smoke into the house (and we moved flu, etc). This is a great place for skiers or snow shoeing to take off from.

Barlow Cabin stay

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: We had a wonderful experience at the Barlow Cabin. We went there for a wedding on the mountain at Ski Bowl. It was wonderful and cold. How fun to come back to a cozy house with a fire and charm galore. We would definitely come back again. We love the history of the cabin! It was also well-stocked for cooking meals and very clean. Thank you for a great stay!

Epic weekend of play!

We ventured up to the mountain for Spring fest at Ski Bowl and had an epic weekend of weather, comfort, and relaxation. The house was in a great location, gently tucked away in the trees, and an easy walk to trails, local restaurants, shops, etc. A foot of snow dropped overnight so if you’re going during the winter be sure to have 4WD and patience to navigate the elements. We we’re thankful for the warm cozy fire after a long day playing in the snow. The kitchen is makeshift so expect mini fridges with limited counter space. We had four people so we managed just fine and enjoyed the cozy accommodations. Looking forward to coming back in the summer to enjoy the trails.

Nice cabin old but nice

This is a well-kept cabin that was built in 1945 or so. The furniture etc. is all relatively old but comfortable. The mattresses on the bed were comfortable with plenty of extra blankets for when it gets cold. Overall, a very nice place to stay in the area and would recommend it as well as stay there again when we're in the area. There were some negative comments about the property managers, but they could not have been nicer when we saw them. And they responded to any questions we had. The kitchen is very well stocked with all the tools you need to cook with as well as plenty of dishes and glasses etc. There is also a very good grill on the porch for grilling. The driveway is a bit steep so just need to use some caution there. It is advertised to sleep 9 and there are certainly enough beds for that no doubt. There is a bit of road noise from the side of the house that faces route 26. The small town of Government Camp is within walking distance with several bars and restaurants and places to buy a few goods that you might need. The only downside is the bathrooms. There is one small bathroom upstairs that has a toilet and a small sink. And another small bathroom downstairs with one shower. So, I'm unsure if nine people were staying there how well that would work out. The water was very hot, but I don't know if that would last for 9 showers in a row 😊.

Great house in great location

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. 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: Barlow Cabin is cozy and quaint. We loved the historic feel. Plenty of space for our group of two couples and two kids. It had everything we needed for a fun ski weekend. A few notes: Lots of bedrooms, but there's just one shower, and if you're planning to cook gourmet meals, you may want to look elsewhere. The kitchen is surprisingly functional for its size, but lacks a fan over the stove (and there's no dishwasher). Also, no dishsoap was provided. Some of the outlets didn't work, along with the ceiling light in one upstairs bedroom (luckily we didn't need to use that room). I wish they had a door code so we didn't have to pick up the key in Welches, as some in our party were coming from Hood River. Overall, though, what it lacks in amenities, it makes up for in charm. We will be back!
