Cozy riverfront cabin with wood-burning fireplace, lovely deck, and washer/dryer

Pinery on the Sandy River

Impossibly cozy and picturesque, this charming cabin feels like a true getaway. You will find yourself nestled near the banks of the rushing Sandy River. Here among the firs and ferns, you can spend your days hiking, mountain biking, skiing, snowshoeing, or relaxing by the fireplace.

There's recreation in every direction here, with Sandy Ridge mountain biking trails immediately north, world-class skiing to the east, and downtown Portland an easy drive west. Yet everything you need for a memorable escape is within this rustic home.

The interior is adorned with natural wood, including a beautiful staircase made from natural logs. There's both a wood-burning fireplace and a propane stove to warm you as you return home from your adventures, as well as a hot shower, comfortable beds, and a private washer/dryer to toast your socks.

The country kitchen has all of the modern conveniences for you to use (including a dishwasher) when you're not dining out at the Brightwood Tavern or the Chicali Cantina.

Outside you'll find a deck that was built around the towering firs, a gas grill, and a picnic table for al fresco meals. Take a short walk down the private wooded path behind the cabin to reach the river’s edge where you can relax in Adirondack chairs and roast s’mores at the fire pit after the sun goes down (as long as no “burn ban” is in effect).

Please note: this cabin is under new ownership since September, 2024. WiFi equipment and plumbing have both been upgraded and are now working very well.

Lovely, but cold
This home was a darling little cabin that gave us the get away we needed. The only problem was, we got there at night, on a cold night, and it was FREEZING. there were two small electric heaters in the walls, but they took hours and hours to heat the place. While there was a fireplace, there was no wood- which is fair, but we got there super late and after dark so we couldn't get wood anywhere. Additionally, there was some sort of other heat source in the cabin- I think it was some sort of gas/propane heater- but it was not functional. After spending over an hour on the phone with Vacasa, there was no solution really. We chocked it up to an adventure, and simply piled the blankets on. Overall we enjoyed the house and our stay, we just wish there would have been a bit more instruction/information about heat sources.

It was a perfect property for three of us, on a girls family trip. We enjoyed our stay and sitting by the river. Well stocked and a clean, cozy cabin.

Cozy fall getaway
Cozy little cabin that's perfect for a couple or small group looking to hunker down during the wet months. We wanted a nice quiet cabin to spend a weekend reading and relaxing in front of a wood fire, and we got it! The cabin is rustic but comfortable, though if you're looking for privacy, probably best to look elsewhere. If the weather had been drier we'd have taken advantage of the lovely firepit outside and/or the riverside hangout area that's just a 50-yard walk from the back door. The cabin itself is cozy, and so is the neighborhood where it's situated. You're pretty closely abutting the neighbors so three different houses look directly into the cabin windows. Not much you can do about it other than close the curtains. Still, we weren't expecting to be isolated, so no harm no foul. Nice spot, very easy check-in and check-out experience with minimal hassle/tasks.

Great getaway
This little cabin was perfect for two people to stay for a summer getaway. The river is a short walk away and feels secluded and peaceful. The cabin was equipped with everything we needed and was quiet, even with neighbors close by. Close driving distance to Mt. Hood and many great hiking opportunities. We would come again! Highly recommend!

Very Blessed by the Owners!
The owners were amazing and kind and the place was equipped, comfortable and a super location close to Welches, wine bars and the most excellent pizza place, as a chef I found the Zig Zag Inn to be my new pizza place outside of Vincenza, Italy. The Hosts have my thanks and gratitude for helping my wife and I have a groovy Birthday weekend. In His Love Joe Roberts

Cozy cabin very cozy!
My husband and I needed a little weekend getaway from the city and this cabin was ideal! The setting was beautiful, the “backyard” steps from the river with multiple awesome fire pits to choose from. It was quiet and fairly secluded, although there are neighbors very close on each side. The huge hearth and fireplace were very romantic and the kitchen suited us just perfectly for cooking cabin breakfasts. The only thing that did not jive with the listing was the claim that wifi works great. That was not our experience. I had to do a little work on my laptop and I could not get it to connect to even send an email. My husband tried at some point to watch Netflix and that would not connect either to stream on a laptop. Wanted to note that for anyone in the future who may need access. It is not reliable, at least on laptops. Stores and restaurants were close and the decor at the cabin was the cutest I have seen. We loved reading the fun animal facts! Overall we had a lovely time and would definitely go back!

We’re still talking about the “great cabin trip”
My sisters and I enjoyed a 2 night stay at this lovely cabin. I loved waking up to the sound of the rain, and a cup of coffee by the river. We’d love to come back again sometime!

Charming, Picture Perfect cabin
Cabin was absolutely perfect for our winter adventure. Very comfortable, clean beds & bedding. Kitchen was well equipped with every essential & variety of pots & pans. If your cooking requires a specific tool (for ex., garlic press) you’ll want to bring with you. But do look around because many of the small gadgets are tucked here & there throughout kitchen area. Same goes for bath washcloths. We only discovered that they had them on last morning when husband realized wall mirror was also a medicine cabinet, in which the washcloths were neatly tucked. Rustic aesthetic applies both architecture of cabin & decor . If you stay on a Tuesday night, you will be required to place trash cans out. Be sure to get clarification on precise location for can & whether or not there is a recycling bin. We put trash out per instructions, but it was not collected . We also never found the recycling bin listed- nor the listed garage. Small, insignificant discrepancies in the context of such a lovely cabin & idyllic setting This cabin is quirky in the best possible way!

It was a nice cabin, great internet service. Cold and wet when we were there so didn't spend as much time outdoors as we would have liked. No tv, but we sat next to the fire to read and watch a couple favorite programs on our laptop.

Sweet cabin in the woods
This is the epitome of a forest cabin. We had a nice stay. It was very warm during our stay this cabin has only small windows that open so not alot of ventilation the french doors at the back of the cabin don't open so you have to trek around the house to get to the deck and the BBQ. Over all the cabin had all the comforts of home. The beds were comfortable. Thank you.
