Best Cabin Rentals in Columbia River Gorge, Oregon 2026

Just east of Portland, the Columbia River Gorge has long been a popular spot among Portlanders looking for a quick out-of-town hike. Here you'll find miles of trails and lots of waterfalls, including Multnomah Falls—among the most popular natural attractions in Oregon. You'll also find crowds, and you'll actually need to acquire a timed use permit if you plan to visit the "waterfall corridor" (which runs from Bridal Veil Falls to Ainsworth State Park) in summer. Because much of the Columbia River Gorge is protected public land, you won't find a ton of cabins right by the river, but you needn't venture far to find a cozy cabin. Cabins are set at retreat centers on public lands on both the Oregon and Washington sides of the Columbia River, and many cabin, chalet, and cottage options exist just south of the gorge near Mount Hood, some with amenities like queen beds, free wifi, wood stoves, and hot tubs.

Open for the 2025 Season Play in Hood River during the day, relax in the country at night. We're 6.5 miles up in the hills, called High Prairie, above the sleepy town Lyle. Enjoy the peace on our 5 acre hideaway, wake up with the chickens. Take a walk to look at Mt. Adams which is just around the corner. Hiking, biking, kite boarding, windsurfing all within a few miles of reach with never ending opportunities to get your exercise. Just ask for tips. The land has mostly Oak trees where you can take your nap in your hang matt. The place is easy accessible, far away from all but still close to all Gorge attractions during the day. The town has a nice little convenience store, country cafe, Chinese restaurant, and new to our town "Confluence Cafe" right at the entrance by the Klickitat River - Awesome views - yummy treats and coffee. Matt and Ali are super cool, go check it out. Grocery shopping is best done in Hood River, White Salmon or The Dalles. Once up here, there isn't much, so come prepared.
