Best Cabin Camping near Adams, OR

Several rustic cabin options exist in the Blue Mountain region near Adams, Oregon, with Emigrant Springs State Heritage Area and Grande Hot Springs RV Resort offering furnished cabin rentals. Emigrant Springs provides basic cabins with electric heating, making them suitable for year-round use including winter stays. "The cabin was rustic, the shower house was in good repair with nice hot showers," notes one visitor. Grande Hot Springs Resort features more upscale cabins that include private outdoor patios, fire pits, and in some cases, soaking tubs fed by natural hot springs. Most cabins have comfortable beds but shared bathroom facilities located a short walk away. The High Road Cabin offers a more secluded experience with toilet facilities on-site and a locked gate for privacy.

Cabin sizes range from small rustic units that accommodate couples to larger guard station cabins like Godman Guard Station that can fit extended families. Fry Meadows Guard Station and Summit Guard Station Bunkhouse provide historic cabin experiences with basic amenities. Most locations are pet-friendly, though policies vary by site. According to one Grande Hot Springs visitor, "Cabins come with a private outdoor patio, fire pit and soaking tubs. Super comfy bed and a nice quiet space." Reservations are essential, particularly during the peak season from May through October. Winter cabin camping is available at some locations, with Emigrant Springs maintaining plowed roads and heated facilities even in heavy snow conditions.

Visitors should plan to bring their own bedding, pillows, and towels as these are rarely provided in the cabins. Kitchen facilities vary significantly between locations, with some offering only outdoor fire pits while others include small refrigerators or microwaves. Food storage containers are recommended, especially during winter stays when preventing freezing is important. The cabins at Emigrant Springs are located near Interstate 84, providing convenient access but also creating some highway noise that several reviewers mention. On-site stores at Grande Hot Springs Resort stock basic supplies, while more extensive provisions require a trip to nearby La Grande. Most cabins include electricity for charging devices, and some areas offer surprisingly good WiFi and cell service despite their rural settings.

    Awesome Place

    Wish I’d stayed here for more than one night. Beautiful spot with cabins, tent and RV options. Cabins come with a private outdoor patio, fire pit and soaking tubs. Super comfy bed and a nice quiet space. There are full bathrooms with showers close by. Super friendly staff too! Good food, a brewery and drive in theater near by. And a nice hot springs fed pool! Great getaway!

    Thimbleberries and plenty of room

    We stopped for a night in a rustic camping cabin at Emigrant Springs in July of 2015. It was a welcome dose of green after a long day of brown along the interstate through Idaho and western Oregon. The cabin was rustic, the shower house was in good repair with nice hot showers. There seemed to be good space and shade around the sites offering some privacy. Great spot! Take the time to stop in Meacham on the West side of I-84 tomstop at The Oregon Trail Cafe - literally the ONLY store in this teeny town. Wonderful hospitality, the local ‘scoop’ and great breakfast.

    Winter wonderland

    When we arrived after dark the 200 ft path to our cabin was cleared and we could easily drag our items stacked on a tarp to our cabin. The cabin does share a wall with another party but it was funny to hear the children laugh and play. It was below zero but the electric heater kept us toasty warm. The bathroom and shower is about 300 ft away if you walk through two feet of snow. We brought a collapsible toilet to have on the covered porch. Drove up to the bathroom when needed. The park ranger spent all day moving snow and keeping the roads through the campground excellent. The bathrooms and showers are always clean. The day we left the park ranger came and moved another foot of snow so we could easily pack out. We brought our instant pot and warmed are already prepared foods. If you don't want things to freeze you got to keep them in your cooler. We brought lots of cozy blankets and could hotspot the computer to watch movies. Make sure you follow trip check for closures of i-84 if camping during snow.

    Glamping with pool and hot showers

    Tent camping is away from the RVs at this site. Comfortable, clean grounds with included hot springs pool access, indoor store, and full bathroom facilities. We loved it so much that we stayed here two nights. Beware of ticks near the grass area. Cool off with ice cream and cold drinks at the store. Everyone was wonderful to work with and speak to.

    Sweet but loud

    The road noise is extreme; very loud. If you can get past that the place is really sweet. The sites have water fire pit and picnic table and lots of trees for privacy. The water in the shower was hot the bathrooms are clean there's a nice trail system behind the campground. a convenient stop on the way into Portland. Minimal bugs.

    Picturesque.

    I wish we had more time at this spot. Beautiful scenery. Small but very clean pool. The campgrounds are very well taken care of. Pet friendly, family friendly.

    Nonplussed

    First, the office staff was stellar! Very friendly & helpful! The park & bath house are tidy & clean. Appreciate that dog poop bags are conveniently located, and wide grassy strips around the perimeter provide places for potty walks (unlike some RV parks where the only grass is at campsites). Great big kudos to other dog owners for cleaning up after their dogs, too! However, for the price, we were not impressed with the rest of the park. Only 2 showers in each restroom with a cramped, shared dressing space. We also were disappointed with the soaking pools, which were small for this size park. Even tho a huge grassy area at one end of the park could be a lovely off-lead dog area, sadly it is not, and dogs are not allowed off-lead anywhere. For those of us with active/young dogs, a safe place for them to RUN, jump, play, & expend energy after a travel day is hugely appreciated.

    Nice place for a weekend camp

    This location is pretty nice with full hookups and a fair amount of space per site. I’m not sure what the policy’s are but during booking I was told there was only one side available and it was a full hook up RV site that was the most expensive rate. I didn’t need that being fully contained in my truck camper, but I though having electrical and water would be nice. When I arrived o found 95% of the campground empty and saw only 3 other campers over the course of the weekend all in spots right next to mine even thought nearly all spots were vacant.
