Heart of village! Knotty pine cabin located on a creek.

The Camp Creek Lodge is located in the heart of the alpine village at the base of the Glade Trail. It was constructed in 1938. The cabin features a knotty pine interior and a majestic stone fireplace.

The main level contains the entry foyer, living room / dining area, kitchen, utility room, a full-bathroom, a half-bathroom, and the main entry foyer. The upstairs contains two bedrooms, and a sleeping area at the top of the stairs. Each upstairs bedroom has air-conditioning during summer for better warm weather sleeping. There have been multiple improvements throughout the years to make the cabin more comfortable, convenient, and safe without sacrificing the work done by the skilled craftsman of the 1930's.

The roads to the cabin and parking at the cabin are plowed during winter. There is parking for two cars on site with nearby public parking available for additional vehicles.

The cabin has plenty of yard area for children to play and just up the road at the dead end is a great winter play area with a hill ideal for inner-tubing. Access to the trails along the north side of Government Camp are accessed through this area and lead to a large network of hiking/cross country skiing/snowshoeing trails. Trails to south side of the village can be access by walking over the Multorpor bridge. These trails give easy access all the way to Trillium Lake and beyond.

Village shops and restaurants are only a two minute walk away, ideal for be able to leave the car at the cabin when doing culinary and retail exploring.

The cabin is stocked with board games and videos. The Govy General Store (200' away) rents DVD's and sells items to make your trip even more enjoyable.

While at the cabin don't forget to check out the Mt. Hood Museum and Cultural Center.

This cabin is vintage 1938 (Timberline Lodge era) with a 1974 addition, this means it’s full of quirks and character and that’s why we adore it so much. If you are more comfortable in a sleek modern cabin, we gently suggest this cabin might not be the best fit for your getaway. 

IMPORTANT - Shortly after booking our cabin we will request payment for County Room Tax which VRBO is currently unable to capture at booking. These taxes are 6.35% of the amount you pay to VRBO. This situation is unwelcome for everyone, so we hope VRBO will update their software soon! All owners using VRBO for lodging on Mt. Hood are in the same situation. They used to collect this tax but tell us now their software is unable to do it. VRBO has told me they are working on a solution.

Our favorite cabin!
We have rented this cute cabin several times 20 years ago now we have grandchildren & are delighted to come again. Wonderful fireplace so nice to cozy up with a fire. Large windows overlooking a woods & creek. Fun to play checkers & watch it snow! Welcome dining area & the beds were comfortable. A little challenging to get down steep stairs for bathroom but a minor inconvenience as this cabin oozes with rustic charm! It’s quiet & perfectly located as it’s walking distance to everything in government camp. Thank you & we will definitely rent again! cabin oozes with rustic charm.

Weekend with friends and family
I found the cabin to be very clean and the main area spacious for our group. The wood burning fireplace was wonderful to sit by after a day fo skiing. There was a great selection of DVDs to choose from, and we enjoyed watching classics our pre-teen kids each night of our stay. The location cannot be beat. The sleeping arrangement does not offer for much privacy, but that is not a deterrent for a 2-day trip for our group.

Lovely vintage cabin in the snow!
We spent two nights at this cabin, and found it to be very charming. The sleeping situation is unique, so make sure that it will work for you. There were plenty of beds, and our bed and linens were clean and comfortable. The home itself is vintage, with most features being original, but we found it to be very clean, cozy, and charming. We loved the proximity to shops and restaurants, and the wall of windows with views of trees and snow in the main living area made us feel extra cozy!

Perfect location for Mt Hood adventures
This property certainly lived up to expectations ~ it is indeed cozy but very well appointed, a lovely cabin in the woods two blocks off the main road in Government Camp. The layout is well thought out, and accommodated 2 adults and 3 teen skiers perfectly. Would absolutely return, and hope to!

This cabin met our expectations and more!! It had all the comforts of home and so clean! The beds were so comfortable. There were lots of games, puzzles and checkers to occupy our grandson.

Perfect home base for family ski weekends. Proximity to skiing, restaurants, and general store couldn't be better. Extremely well outfitted and clean. Great wood stove. Beautiful view out back (don't forget to turn on the lights at night in a snowstorm). Really couldn't ask for more.

Cozy, quiet, roomy cabin
We had a wonderful stay in Blane's cabin. It's just tucked away enough from the main drag to feel private and quiet, especially with the creek running through the backyard. The kitchen was well equipped, the number of beds was incredible, and the fireplace was a favorite feature for sure. We loved our stay! I'm sure we'll be back.

Amazing location, steps to restaurants and general store. Minutes to the lift line at Ski Bowl. Ski, go home for lunch or tired kids, go back and ski some more. This is the IDEAL situation for ski families with young children. Extremely comfortable living spaces, with an amazing wooded backyard and stream. Can't wait to go back!

Perfect Cabin Experience in Government Camp!
We really loved the cabin and our time in Government Camp. The cabin is perfectly appointed and has everything you might need. The whole place was incredibly clean and everything worked well. (I've stayed at other places in Govt Camp where this was NOT the case.) The kitchen was well stocked and the beds were very comfortable. The real star of the cabin is the living room, with big windows to see all the snow, a nice fireplace, comfy couches, and nice dinning table for eating and playing games. Also the location could not be better. It's just a 5 minute walk to the main Govy store and restaurants. The host, Blane, was very nice and responsive to any questions. Overall we had a wonderful visit and would happily stay at this great cabin again.

Fantastic stay in Government Camp
It doesn’t get any better than this! The location is perfect. The cabin had everything we needed for cooking and relaxing with tons of board games and videos. The cross town trail was a quick walk for us to take a snow hike on the day we didn’t ski. The beds were very comfortable and the creek behind the cabin lulled me to sleep! Blake was super responsive and helpful. We hope to return again!

Such a cozy cabin!
We wanted to give our daughter a special 18th birthday, this fit the bill perfectly! My husband and I had our own cozy room, and the girls (all 7 of them) fit in the upstairs general room all in beds. The rest of the house was just perfect for meals, playing cards, and watching movies. The location is right in the middle of activities in Government Camp including skiing and tubing. Blane was a good host and communicated very well. We'll definitely bookmark this spot for a repeat visit next snow season!
