One of the oldest original homesteads in the area, for nearly 150 years this gem has been in the family. We have shared it with many people over the years and would love to share it with you! These beloved woods are the remaining part of the once vast, St. Martin homestead-started in the late 1800s. Our family ties and our roots grow very deeply in these woods-we've been born and raised here and continue to strive to be good stewards of these lands. Pristine woods, trails, river access, and more! Located in the heart of the Columbia River Gorge, 60 minutes east of Portland, 25 minutes west of Hood River. A truly tranquil place to enjoy exclusively, or to use as a basecamp for the unlimited adventures possible in this scenic area. Welcome and enjoy!

My husband, Chandler and I were both lucky enough to have grown up in the beautiful Mt. Hood area. Now with hard work and determination we are raising our five children in this magical place. A few years ago Chandler sold a large portion of his company and we purchased our rustic log cabin. We love the idea of sharing our peaceful cabin and property with the world! We recently decide to put our primary home on the site, to allow us to catch up on our debt. We are so thankful that both our places are loved by our guests. Renting our homes has allowed us to work a little less and enjoy our little ones while they are still little. Learn more about this land:Rustic log cabin on secluded 34 acres with exceptional Mt. Hood and Zig Zag wilderness views all around. Only 3.3 miles from highway 26. The property is horse trailer accessible. Just moments away from endless hiking, horse trails, and sandy river beaches...not to mention all the other Mt. Hood area attractions. We also rent our property for weddings, family reunions, camp-outs, graduation parties and other events. Bring your own bedding and towels or we can supply them for you to use for an additional fee. Pets welcome with additional $65/pet cleaning fee. Additional $50 per person fee after first two people.

The sites are all very unique. We loved out stay. Lots of salmon making a run up river right now. It was very cool to watch the salmon and also a big group of kayakers going by. Sites were clean. Wish we would have added the sauna add on. They looked really neat.

Absolutely loved our stay at WindWoodRivers, the host was extremely responsive and helpful in answering our questions, the campsite and accommodations (ie toilet) were extremely well kept, and the campsites were well distanced to allow for a secluded experience

I love this place. I have camped at other sites as well. If you know, you know. Just be aware, it is a little walk from the car. It is not a car camping spot. But very beautiful and would do it again.

This is such a lovely spot at the confluence of the Wind River & the Little Wind River. Lots of space for all of our tents and vehicles. Also, the perfect spot for full moon camping and late night skyviews. The soaking & swimming are just dreamy. The composting toilet was really clean. Thank you for sharing this treasure.

I loved the land, we stayed in eagle nest and it was very cozy and secluded. Just perfect. The only thing that was annoying is when I asked a question that didn’t get answered. We figured it out but it would have been nice to have peace of mind. The water was amazing, the toilets were clean and very nice ! The access to get in was easy and made you feel very secure. This land is very much loved.

Great camping with the family. Enough space for 2 tents. The walk in is definitely more than 50 feet and inclined. I will pack a load in/out cart next time if traveling with coolers and folding tables and such. A truly beautiful spot and so special to sleep next to the Little Wind. Will be back!

Beautiful secluded spot alone crystal clear water. Falling asleep to the sound of water running over rocks was dreamy. It’s a short but steep walk from the car to the site (sign says 50ft) on a single track path with some roots and rocks. The site is elevated from the river by about 10 feet and it’s steep so there’s a rung ladder to get to the water. Beautiful combo of trees for shade and open sky to see the stars. Nice little fire pit. Host was responsive and informative regarding my question about fire bands and accessing fire wood. Directions to the site (once booked) were perfect. Compost toilet is in an outhouse about a 5 minute walk from the site, for number twos; super clean and smell free.

This is our favorite campground in the Gorge, we come multiple times every summer! We love the hot springs and the fishing is great. Campsites are all cool and have their own individual perks like swings over the river and built in tables and benches. We highly recommend this campground!
