Best Cabin Camping near Canby, OR

Several state parks and private resorts around Canby, Oregon provide rustic cabins with varying amenities. Silver Falls State Park Campground offers small but comfortable cabins equipped with heat, lights, and beds, some featuring covered porches. At Champoeg State Heritage Area, heated cabins include basic furniture with bunk beds and small tables. "The cabins are small but comfortable with heat, lights, and beds. Covered porch is nice to sit and listen to the rain," notes Jeff K., a Silver Falls visitor. Mt. Hood Village Resort provides standard cabins with actual beds but no private bathrooms, requiring guests to use shared facilities. Most cabins include electricity, while outdoor amenities typically feature fire pits and picnic tables for cooking and dining.

Cabin options range from tiny rustic structures to more furnished accommodations with multiple sleeping arrangements. Pet-friendly cabins are available at several locations, including Battle Ground Lake State Park and Mt. Hood Village Resort. Smith Creek Village at Silver Falls offers tiny cabins that provide privacy despite their proximity to other units. According to Derek N., "Smith Creek Village is such a great place for easy lodging in nature. My family stayed in one of the tiny cabins. The cabin was very clean and well kept." A-frame cabins can be found at Lost Lake Resort, where Michele S. reports they are "small and rustic" but situated on "generous size lots with shrubbery and trees for privacy." Advance reservations are essential, particularly during summer months when cabin rentals fill quickly.

Most cabin rentals provide basic furnishings but require visitors to bring their own bedding, pillows, and towels. Kitchen facilities vary significantly between locations, with some offering only outdoor fire pits while others include microwaves or small refrigerators. Cabins at Smith Creek Village feature two small rooms divided into dining and sleeping areas but lack appliances beyond basic electricity. Campers should plan to bring cooking equipment, food storage containers, and all necessary groceries. Some locations like Mt. Hood Village Resort offer on-site stores with essential supplies and food options, including a cafe/bakery. For extended stays, storing food securely is important, as one reviewer at Silver Falls noted encountering wildlife near their cabin despite proper food storage practices.

    Champoeg State Heritage Area Campground

    Good for biking, heated yurts, smaller tent spots

    We've been here 3 times, once for tent camping and twice in a yurt. The yurts are heated, and a couple of them are pet friendly, which is great for us! There is a small table in each yurt. Theres a couch and a bunk bed for sleeping arrangements, with the lower bunk larger than the top bunk. Great walking trails and day use areas, and our favorite thing about this place is biking on the biking trails surrounding the area. Beautiful and close to civilization for a quick and low key camping trip. Great for beginner campers and families!

    Lost Lake Resort And Campground — Mt. Hood National Forest

    Beautiful, well maintained, generous sized campsites

    Tent sites are large and spaced out so your not right next to your neighbors. It’s a little bit of a walk to the lake but enjoyable. We stayed in the A-frame cabin which is right off the parking lot so can be busy but is a generous size lot and has some shrubbery and trees for privacy. there’s a trail out right out the back of the lot. The cabin is small and rustic. Non motorized lake. Canoe, paddle board and boat rentals available and I highly recommend.

    Oxbow Regional Park

    Close to the city with awesome playgrounds

    The park just added two nature playgrounds that are pretty fantastic. One of the new playgrounds, right before the boat launch, features a trail with a mud kitchen, two a-frame tents and a big area where you can use fallen logs and branches to build shelters.

    The other nature playground is right across from the old playground (still in use) and has a wooden water course with a hand pump and an elevated wooden plank course.

    Camping can be a little loud since it's a popular spot and there are no pets allowed, but it's barely 30 minutes away from Portland and right on the Sandy River.

    Smith Creek Village — Silver Falls State Park

    Very nice cabin getaway

    Smith Creek Village is such a great place for easy lodging in nature. My family stayed in one of the tiny cabins. The cabin was very clean and well kept. The cabin was nearby a few other similar cabins, but everything felt very private. There was nice walking paths and a large grass area supplied with lawn games.

    We decided to take the easy route this particular trip and ate all our meals at the Big Leaf Coffeehouse. The food there is fantastic and the building has a cozy lodge vibe.

    Another thing that I loved about Smith Creek Village is that although the Silver Falls state park is always busy, Smith Creek Village is not. It feels like a hidden gem inside the state park. We definitely plan on coming back.

    Pet Friendly Cabin

    Pros: Good lake to swim in, smaller state park so not too busy, kayaks you can rent, small playground if you have kids, pet frIendly cabIn I stayed In was faIrly secluded Cons: because it’s smaller, kids on bikes were on the road often so you have to be aware, only one shower stall in the restrooms

    Mt Hood Village Resort

    The Ultimate Mt Hood Base Camp

    Not my normal camping scene, but decided to for an early summer ski session with the kids, we didn't want to completely rough it, but also didn't want to pay hotel prices. So, one of the standard cabins here was the perfect compromise. Roof over our heads, actual beds, room for three of us to be able to gear up for the day. But still had a fire pit outside, and picnic table for outdoor cooking. (Also the standard cabins don't have bathrooms, so you still need to go to the shared restrooms.)

    The property overall was really nice, lots of amenities. We also took a walk through the RV/Tent camp sites. Its very similar to a KOA style of resort. We enjoyed it for what it was.

    Smith Creek Village — Silver Falls State Park

    Cozy cabins, close to falls.

    We stayed in a rustic cabin at this park and it was perfect. Two full beds and two small bunks make for an affordable spot for friends to gather. Book in advance because it fills up fast. The cabins are basic, but do have electricity. The bathrooms are clean and well maintained. The tent sites were pretty close to each other and there were a lot of kids. Walked to the waterfalls from the cabin in the early am, amazing!

    Battle Ground Lake State Park Campground

    Feels remote for being close to the city

    BGLSP is a really lovely park not too far from Portland with camping and rustin cabins. Most of the campsites are large enough for 2 tents, and there were many RVs and popups - good size driveways/parking areas. Cabins C17 and C21 were the most private, though C13 and C15 had a partial view of the lake. Campsites 19 and 20 were really tucked back and adjoined such that two groups could spread out. There is only one bathroom for the entire camping/cabin area, and it got pretty dirty/crowded at times, so that wasn't ideal. I would also recommend checking out the water quality information before going if you plan to do water sports or swimming. There was a high bacteria advisory when we went, so swimming was discouraged. We ended up going to nearby Klineline Pond to swim instead. There is a nice little concession stand, though, and they offer SUP and kayak rentals that looked nice.

    Lost Lake Resort And Campground — Mt. Hood National Forest

    Gorgeous!! Bring hiking shoes & a headlamp.

    The only thing missing from this amazing camping spot is electricity and running water. Otherwise, it’s perfect! Absolutely gorgeous view of Mt. Hood, tons of hiking, a beautiful lake and camping spots for everyone. They have walk-in spots, yurts, a-frames, RV spots, a horse camp and even a few rooms at the lodge. Make sure to spend at least 3-4 days!


Guide to Canby

Camping cabins near Canby, Oregon provide affordable access to the Willamette Valley's diverse landscapes at elevations ranging from 150 to 5,000 feet across nearby recreation areas. Most cabin locations experience mild winters with rain and hot, dry summers that typically reach 85-90°F during peak camping months. Water access varies significantly between locations with some cabins situated near rivers or lakes while others focus on forest immersion.

What to do

Hiking trails with waterfall views: At Silver Falls State Park Campground, trails accommodate various skill levels with options for viewing the park's famous waterfalls. "Probably the easiest accessibility to the most awesome waterfalls per few square miles in Oregon. Ample parking and many different falls and trails to choose from," notes Jeremy A. Most trails are well-marked with distance indicators and difficulty ratings.

Fishing opportunities for kids: Promontory Park offers a specially designated fishing area for young anglers. "There is a stocked pond called Small Fry Lake. It was developed for kids and is stocked from October to April. Youth up to 17 can catch a limit of two fish per day," explains one visitor. Note that fishing licenses are required for those 12 and older, and the pathway to the lake is described as "surprisingly steep."

Wine country exploration: Cabin stays at Dundee Hills Resort provide direct access to Willamette Valley wineries. "Perfect home base for wine country and only 30 minutes from Portland. Super friendly and helpful staff," shares Bradley M. Several wineries offer tastings within walking distance, eliminating transportation concerns for those sampling local vintages.

What campers like

River access for swimming: Oxbow Regional Park features a beach area along the Sandy River that campers frequently use for cooling off. "Great access to the river to keep cool in summer. Nice sandy beaches," states marcus K. The park maintains several designated swimming areas with gradual entry points suitable for various swimming abilities.

Historical learning opportunities: Champoeg State Heritage Area Campground incorporates educational elements into the camping experience. "Along the way got to see the Champoeg Heritage site with period piece actors, wide open spaces, and the Willamette River," shares Ashley B. The historical farmhouse particularly appeals to families, with one visitor noting, "The farmhouse fascinated my boys... they got to water the garden with a water pump and buckets!"

Activity programming for children: Multiple locations offer structured activities for younger campers. "Kids programming (give Ranger Matthew a raise!)" mentions one Promontory Park visitor, while another notes, "Sky even brought Jr. Camper art projects for our kids." These programs typically run during summer months and weekends, often including nature walks, craft sessions, and educational presentations about local wildlife.

What you should know

Site spacing varies significantly: Some locations offer better privacy between sites than others. At Camp Dakota, a visitor notes, "Very roomy and clean sites," while at Mt. Hood Village Resort, some reviewers caution that sites are "typically close together, but some have more separation than others."

Food storage considerations: Wildlife encounters are possible at several cabin locations. One Oxbow Regional Park visitor advises, "Store all food items in your vehicle overnight," while another camper mentions, "We had to pack the car before bed so they wouldn't get to the food" when staying at Silver Falls State Park.

Seasonal availability of amenities: Services and amenities often change seasonally. At Promontory Park, the stocked kids' fishing pond only operates "from October to April" as the fish cannot survive summer water temperatures. Similarly, shower facilities at some locations may operate with reduced hours or close entirely during winter months.

Tips for camping with families

Playgrounds and recreation: Multiple cabin campgrounds feature dedicated play areas for children. At Battle Ground Lake State Park, "They have a cool volcanic lake with a swimming area and great fishing. It's like a mini crater lake. I mean mini like pond size," explains Ashley Y. The park also maintains a playground and short hiking trails suitable for children.

Cabin selection for groups: For families needing multiple sleeping arrangements, certain cabin styles offer better configurations. At Mt. Hood Village Resort, standard cabins include actual beds but require using shared facilities for bathrooms. Several reviewers recommend booking sites away from main roads for quieter evenings with children.

Bathing facilities with children: Shower quality varies widely between locations. One Feyrer Park visitor specifically notes "Clean bathrooms!!" while Camp Dakota provides pay showers that are "amazing, 1 quarter per minute." Several locations feature both flush toilets and vault toilets, with the former typically located near cabin clusters.
