Historic Waterfront Cabin with Hot Tub & Salmon River Access - Dog-Friendly
Papa Bear Cabin
Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'
Hold everything! This Welches vacation cabin has it all! A great location near the Mt. Hood National Forest - right near skiing and hiking, a private hot tub, tree-filled landscaping, and all the modern entertainment amenities you could ever want! All of that, plus this gorgeous Papa Bear Cabin is even dog-friendly.
From this centrally-located Welches address right on the Salmon River, you'll have your pick of restaurants, hiking trails, and even ski resorts. Mt. Hood Skibowl, Timberline, and Mt. Hood Meadows are all within 22 miles! And in summer, golf and spa services are a five minute drive away at The Resort at the Mountain.
Laid out on the inside like a grand mountain lodge, you'll love spending time in front of the floor-to-ceiling, wood burning fireplace. There's also a flatscreen TV, cable, WiFi, and a DVD player. And while you're enjoying the living room's ambiance, you'll have a pleasing view out onto the spacious deck.
This large main level also has a country-style kitchen with all the appliances you'll need for delicious vacation meals. After dinner, warm up in the deck's private hot tub, while you keep an eye out for shooting stars.
The three bedrooms and two baths at this gorgeous Mt. Hood getaway will sleep up to six guests and include features like a clawfoot tub, skylights, and colorful, warm quilts. There's even a washer and dryer here so you can always have clean, warm socks. You're also welcome to bring two dogs with you for an additional nightly fee.
This Welches vacation cabin is perfect for ski trips, fishing retreats, or any family and friend getaway based near the stunning Mt. Hood National Forest. Summer or winter, you'll never run out of activities here - even if your favorite one is just relaxing on the sofa, in front of a roaring fire.
Spend some time in the forest at this amazing Papa Bear Cabin. With a pleasing mountain lodge vibe and a great location, this Mt. Hood retreat will be your home-away-from-home in Welches.
