Peace and quiet

Guests say this home is in a quiet area.
Nestled within the Columbia River Gorge Scenic Area, the Alder Hideout is a small, design-forward cabin surrounded by forest. It was created as a place to slow down, breathe deeply, and reconnect with nature.

Simple in form and intentional in every detail, the cabin opens to the quiet rhythm of the woods. Guests often spend mornings with coffee by the window, afternoons exploring nearby trails, and evenings by the fire beneath the trees.

Guest access
The Alder Hideout is one of a few special structures on the property, each thoughtfully designed with private outdoor spaces for you to enjoy. While you'll find plenty of peace here, if you're looking for complete isolation, this might not be the perfect fit.

Feel free to explore the property on foot, just kindly respect the space around the other buildings, which may have guests staying in them. We ask that everyone does their part to keep things respectful and cozy for all.

Other things to note
- As part of the off-grid design, the Hideout uses a state-of-the-art incineration toilet. Instead of flushing with water, everything is reduced to clean ash in a sealed chamber. It’s hygienic, odorless, and easy to use, please make sure you are comfortable trying something a little different before booking.

- Cell phone service is very limited on the property, so we like to take this as an opportunity to disconnect!

- There is however internet access with WIFI, but please, keep the usage to a minimum as the bandwidth is limited and is shared by the whole property. We ask guests not to stream video.

- The kitchenette is a very modest setup, with limited options so we suggest planning ahead if you intend to cook in the space. Reach out and let us know if you'd like an extensive list of what we have in the kitchenette.

- We ask that no more than the number of people listed on your reservation, be in the Hideout or on the property.

- We do not permit professional photography or video without prior approval.

- Due to the remote location of this space power outages may occur a couple times a year. They are typically short, but we do have a generator on the property that we can setup in case of an outage.

- Lastly, we do have a camera that is aimed at the driveway so we can monitor the coming and going of vehicles for safety reasons.
