McKenzie Bridge River's Edge Retreat, a cozy cabin on over two acres

Your worries will fall by the wayside as you drive down North Bank Road. The trees fold over the road and the road simplifies to a one paved lane as you near this property. You will turn off the road onto a gravel drive, wind past the 'glass pond' and roll up to the cabin on a generous circular drive.

The sweet cabin awaits you! The robust McKenzie River roars past the cabin and you can almost reach out and touch the river from the deck. Throw open the huge sliding door and enjoy being on the river while tucked inside this sweet cabin. Tons of sunshine pours in from the three skylights in the living area, and if it is too much in the summer months, draw the automatic blinds and cool the deck with an automatic awning.

This well-appointed cabin is less than three miles from Tokatee Golf Course. Enjoy dinner out at two restaurants where N. Bank meets the highway, one with tantalizing brisket and the other with a lovely live music venue. Clear Lake, Sahalie Falls, Lost Lake and Belknap Hot Springs are all nearby. After a days adventure, come home and barbeque on the deck. The fully equipped kitchen makes cooking fun.

This cabin is great for a solitary weekend of introspection, an intimate weekend getaway for weary travelers, or a playful weekend for a small family. We have provided a generous dog run if you cannot leave your four-legged family members behind.

the high speed reliable wireless internet will keep you in touch (if you must) and the Spectrum cable stations with stepped up sports channels will not disappoint the most avid fans.

Wonderful stay!!

Amazing secluded location on the river! Loved the skylights that brightened the living space. We had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Loved watching rafters and kayakers going by and going on walks with our dog in the area. Highly recommend!

Peaceful Oasis

This property is one of the best I’ve ever stayed in. Well stocked kitchen and throughout the house. Right on the McKenzie River and close to so many outdoor activities! Communication with the host was excellent. The house has wonderful natural light and is super private. I would love to come back.

Lovely home, exceptionally well-stocked

We chose this place partly for location, partly for the dog-fenced area alongside the house. The house is extremely well-stocked, and with quality items: good knives & cookware, lots of food basics (oils, butter, salad dressing, etc.), and lots of thoughtful bathroom extras (shampoo, lotion, q-tips, extra razors, etc.) Beautiful home, right on the river; any closer, and you'd be wet.

Stunning riverside

Absolutely loved the rushing sound of the river just feet away from sitting on the deck. Perfect house for a girls get away. Restaurants close by were all delish. Only issue needed more sitting in living room and what’s with one roll of toilet paper. But still a great place.

Great Views

We wanted something tucked away for privacy and quiet, with the sounds of water at night when we slept. This is what we got, and so much more. The moss on the trees, the deer in the yard, the pond, the clean clean clean cabin with every high quality amenity needed was there. This cabin was perfect for 2-3 people, well equipped with a great BBQ, wood stove, and exceptional sleeping. Best bed my husband has ever slept in! Hiking trails are close, every where you turned was a beautiful site.

Perfect "Nature Therapy"

We visit this area several times a year, but this is our first stay here. A delightful property to stroll around, including a large pond with nice reflections. The sound of the river is incredible, being right off the deck, it's always with you, soothing. Clean, comfortable, with a well stocked kitchen. For those new to the area, a comprehensive folder to help with local eateries, places to go and much more. Mike, the host, responds to any inquiries quickly, with a real sense of caring. We will be returning...

The cabin is wonderfully located and well-appointed, with comfortable beds and furniture and nicely equipped kitchen. The power shades for the skylights and deck awning were a plus in the afternoon. It was delightful to sit on the deck and watch the rafters float by. The cabin is located within great striking distance to attractions in the Cascades. The only minus was that the air conditioner couldn't cope with the temps in the 90's, and afternoons/early evenings were stuffy at times. A box fan helped with air circulation.Since there was a heat wave during our stay, this drawback doesn't affect our evaluation or recommendation. We highly recommend the River's Edge

Play land

The river cabin was clean, full of light and had all the necessary amenities. The deck and sound of the river was a huge bonus, as was the quiet neighborhood where we rode bikes to the general store and could easily access MTB trails, hikes and hot springs.

Amazing getaway with a beautiful view

Amazing! This little nest by the river was the cozy getaway we needed. The house was easy to find (thank you for the windmill landmark!), check-in was seamless, and everything was clean and well-stocked for a home-away-from-home experience. I absolutely loved the kitchen and appreciated having all the necessary cleaning supplies. The house had everything we needed—whether for a meal on the deck, a cozy indoor retreat on a rainy day, or a fully equipped kitchen to cook delicious meals. Waking up to the stunning view of the roaring river made the stay even more special.
