About this property
Entire place
You'll have the entire cabin to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.
NEW - Cozy Waterfront Cabin Nestled in the Forest - King beds / AC / Fast Wi-fi
Ever stay somewhere so perfect you've wondered if you should just change your mailing address? Welcome to Timber Creek!
Bordering a natural forest, it’s secluded enough for that true cabin feel—yet close enough to grab a pizza when cooking feels like a four-letter word
Gaze at the creek from your window, sip coffee from your balcony, and enjoy a kitchen so loaded you might actually choose to cook!
Drift off to the soothing ambient soundtrack of the Zigzag River—the true white noise of nature!
PROPERTY LAYOUT— • You'll have complete access to Timber Creek —one of two cabins on the property • Want to take over the entire compound? Book our other 3-bedroom cabin next door (check my profile for deets) • Each cabin has its own entrance and private space • The neighbors have their own hot tub hidden in the woods. Staging a hot tub heist? That’s a $200 fine—save your cash for pizza, not a bad decision
YOU MIGHT SLEEP THROUGH YOUR ALARM— • Four comfortable beds that'll make you question your bed choices back home • Downstairs bedroom situation: One king, the other a cozy queen with its own door to the forest. Creek-view bragging rights as well • Upstairs arrangement: two additional King bedrooms, one with a private door to a wraparound creek-side balcony—the perfect spot for a morning coffee (also doubles as an emergency sleeping quarters if dinner conversations don't go as planned)
FULLY LOADED MODERN KITCHEN — • Fully renovated—more stainless steel than a Cybertruck • All the standard appliances you'd expect, plus a dishwasher (because you're not here to create memories of washing dishes) • Coffee maker, blender, rice cooker, kettle, air fryer—are you still with me? If it chops, blends, or heats, hopefully we've snagged it for you • A table that seats six + four island bar stools for when you need a quick coffee perch while the toast burns
TECH FOR WHEN NATURE GETS BORING— • Let's be honest, "unplugging" is just something we say, not something we actually mean... • So stay connected and entertained with internet fast enough to Zoom with your boss, stream that show everyone's talking about, AND defend pineapple on pizza across three social platforms • Five 4K Roku TVs scattered throughout the cabin, ranging from 50" to 75." Because vacation is when families gather together to watch different shows in separate rooms • Stream all your favorites with your own login, because sharing passwords with strangers is so 2010
CLIMATE CONTROL FOR EVERY MOOD— • Mini-split heating/cooling in the kitchen and living rooms because Mother Nature can be moody • Gas fireplace for that cabin vibe, without the whole "chopping wood" situation • Portable fans for when the PNW decides to impersonate Arizona for a day • The kitchen and living rooms feature dimmable lighting to adjust from, "I can actually see my food," to a romantic dinner ambiance • Stairway lights to prevent midnight tumbles during bathroom quests
BATHROOMS— • Upstairs: Claw-foot tub under a perfectly placed "no-peeping" window - natural light without the natural audience • Downstairs: Tub/shower plus washer/dryer—clean your clothes and yourself in one go • Both bathrooms prioritize function over interpretive dance space, but have everything you need
PROXIMITY TO ADVENTURE— • Old Salmon River Trailhead - 3 miles • Little Zigzag Falls Trailhead - 4 miles • Ramona Falls Trailhead - 5 miles • Burnt Lake Trailhead - 8 miles • Mt Hood Ski Bowl - 8 miles • Mirror Lake Trailhead - 12 miles • Trillium Lake - 13 miles • Mt. Hood Skibowl Adventure Park - 14 miles • Timberline Lodge - 15 miles • Meadows - 20 miles • Tamanawas Falls Trailhead - 22 miles • PDX Airport - 43 miles
Guest Access — • Full access to the cabin showcased in this listing • This is one of the two cabins on the property • Each cabin has its own separate entrance • Our neighboring cabin has their own private hot tub hidden in the woods • Again, the hot tub is reserved exclusively for Marion Pines guests • Please do not stage a hot tub heist • Respect each other’s space and amenities • Want to take over the entire compound? Book our other 3-bedroom cabin next door (check my profile for deets)
Interaction with guests— • I won't be physically present (no surprise breakfast visits, promise!), but I'm just a message away via the VRBO app • Think of me as your virtual concierge – less creepy than a hotel ghost, more helpful than Siri • Need me? Holler. Otherwise, enjoy your forest freedom!
House Rules— • No smoking, vaping, or e-cig shenanigans: $300 fine if we catch a whiff • Party Foul: No parties, glitter, or confetti—save it for Vegas • Pets? Cool, but no furniture-hopping (beds included) or carpet-ruining. Clean up their yard art. • Parking: Driveway (3 spaces), don’t block the road • Noise: Be courteous to our neighbors – they know where we live • Hot Tub: Not yours. Not worth the $ fine • Treat It Nice: Clean up spills, tell me if you break stuff *We reserve the right to charge additional fees for non-compliance leading to extra cleaning or damages*
CELL SERVICE— • Enable Wi-Fi calling and our internet's got your back—you'll be able to call and text seamlessly • If the internet goes down, your cell reception becomes spottier than a teenager's face • A short walk outside usually solves any connection emergencies
PET PALS— • We're pet-friendly, allowing up to two dogs per stay • Please keep them off furniture, beds, and carpet – dog hair is the glitter of the pet world • No solo doggy adventures while you're out exploring – they tend to redecorate in expensive ways • Clean up any outdoor "artistic expressions" and we're all good!
CREEK SAFETY— • The creek’s gorgeous but not a babysitter • Watch your little humans. Children must be supervised at all times within proximity to the creek (this is the non-negotiable serious part) • Please exercise caution, use good judgment, and act responsibly at all times. Safety first!
EXTERIOR SECURITY CAMERAS— • Active exterior cameras record video and sound at the front door and driveway • All indoor spaces remain completely private
MOUNTAIN LIFE— • It's not us, it's the trees • On rare occasions, Mother Nature likes to remind us who's in charge • We may occasionally lose power or internet when trees high five power lines • Resolution times vary and are completely out of our control—perfect opportunity for a digital detox! Show your kids how you survived the 1990s, they won't believe you
WILDLIFE AWARENESS— • If encountered, observe deer, coyotes, bear, snakes or other wildlife from a distance • Do not attempt to feed, all animals should be considered dangerous even if they appear docile • Insects may be present in/around cabin as part of the forest environment. No refunds for wildlife/insect sightings
