Mount Hood cabins for sale, from $1.8M to $299,950

It take a special place for real estate agents to feel the need to describe a residence for sale, with a vaulted, beamed ceiling and log posts, as possessing a “mountain vibe.” But cooing is hard to resist with cabins on Mount Hood, Oregon’s tallest mountain and one of the most iconic peaks in North America.

Homes on the mountain sit on land with forested and sometimes water views, and are often steps from hiking, skiing or snowboarding trails. The dwellings are built in a variety of styles, from storybook log cabins and classic chalets to spare A frames and contemporary shed-roof forms.

Here are properties around Brightwood, Welches, Rhododendron and Government Camp for sale.
