"This home is not just 'retro', it's the authentic item! My family from Chicago have never lived in anything but downtown high-rises, and they were in heaven. The children enjoyed crossing the creek on the bridge and playing in the woods. We will be back every year!" ~Tammy W. Feb 2007

"My two kids had fun exploring the cabin and the knick-knacks. The adults loved the view from the kitchen nook. The log cabin atmosphere was just what we were looking for. We were sad to leave =(. Thanks for the early check in and late check out. You Rock!".....Adrienne M. December 2007

"Loved and appreciated the early check-in and late check out; loved the craftsman expertise, the Steiner history book , all the perfect TLC touches. Adored the deck, bridge and creeks beyond. The fact that the owners share this is a gift to us"....Joan S May 2008

Dancing Bear Log Cabin is a beautifully preserved example of the Steiner Log Cabins that are unique to the Mt Hood Area and a highly valued piece of its history. The Steiner brothers also worked on the construction of Timberline Lodge. Their impressive engineering skills and artistic use of naturally shaped wood is evident in these cabins as well as in the architecture of the Lodge, where some of their original tools are on display.
This vintage, three bedroom, one bath cabin is located on historic Barlow Trail Road, and Hackett Creek runs right behind it. Cross the creek on a wooden planked bridge to your own private picnic area and horseshoe pit. The back deck overlooks Hackett Creek and the woods and there is a hot tub to the side of the house.
The owners have carefully maintained the authenticity of this home, and are always adding new and antique items in keeping with the spirit of the cabin. The master bedroom has a queen log bed with luxurious Ralph Lauren bedding, rustic light fixtures and furnishings. The guest bedroom has a double bed. Downstairs, there is a third bedroom with a day bed/trundle and a second TV/VCR. Two futon sofas in the living room provide extra sleeping space. The massive stone fireplace provides warmth and a feel for what our beautiful area must have been like back in the day.
Romance, charm and a warm fire await you at this lovely home. This is a great place to experience Mt Hood from an historical perspective. $160-$335 per night depending on season and number of guests.
