11mi from Silver Falls State Park · 1 siteNestled just 300 yards from Santiam River & Park in Mill City, Oregon, and conveniently situated off Hwy 22, our cabin offers an ideal piece of nature and local history while still having the neighborhood features and comforts. The Cabin was built as their home in 1948 by the Stewart family. Betty Kelle would eventually be the mayor of Gates Oregon. We've gone to great lengths to preserve the history of canyon life when Betty and her husband lived the Canyon life fueled by the timber industry.
It's been fully renovated in 2022 reclaiming wood from local sawmills and keeping much of the original timber logged by Mr. Bob Kelle in the 40's.
The cabin features a queen sized Seely mattress and a single sized pull-out sofa suitable for children only. 45Gal hot water heater, shower, kitchenette, space heaters and portable AC. Fast fiber internet and TV with BYO streaming capabilities.
Within walking distance, you'll find stores, the post office, a boat launch, Kimmel Park, and more!
This cabin is perfect for kayakers, fishermen, and skiers seeking proximity to the river, hot springs, hiking, Silver Falls, and more. Please note that, at present, there is ongoing landscaping work to complete the cabin and you may see some fresh paint. Plans to bring in HVAC, concrete parking area, and picnic area are in the works for late 2026.
