Owl Creek Cabin, nestled in a tranquil forest setting, offers a peaceful retreat that guests frequently describe as cozy and restorative. The host, Kit, is consistently praised for being accommodating and ensuring a seamless experience, from lighting fires to providing thorough directions. While most guests enjoy the quiet seclusion and natural surroundings, a few note the cabin's compact size and the challenging access to the loft. The outdoor tub is a highlight for some, though others found it unavailable during their stay.

Cozy and peaceful cabin

Kit met us when we arrived and showed all the amenities of the cabin. We arrived after dark, and Kit made sure to have the lights and heaters on for us. The cabin has everything you need to be comfortable no matter how long your stay. It was very peaceful outside by the fire pit and so relaxing indoors. My only regret was that we only stayed for one night and didn’t have time to truly enjoy the cabin and explore the land. We’ll definitely plan to visit again sometime!

Hidden Gem!

With kids

This cabin is adorable! It was perfect for our small family get away. My little guy loved sleeping in the loft. We got to have a grand adventure at Crater Lake National Park and just enjoy the peace and quiet! Kit is a fabulous owner and has done a great job with this hidden gem! We will be back!

Magical stay

Wow, what a magical stay. This cabin is something out of a story book. Remote location, bonfire, outside tub, little critters everywhere- such a wonderful vibe. My partner & I had a blast staying here.

The site of the cabin was wonderful. I think that the cabin was not advertised transparently because there is no was FOUR people fit comfortably. The compost toilet is rough and the loft sleep space was kind of hard to get to.
