Below the Falls Lodge - Next to Golden & Silver Falls

Relax and revive in this artistic 'cabin' with wonderful views of historic Glenn Creek from every room. An architectural dream, you enter this lodge style home through a pivoting hobbit style front door with hardware from the 1800's. Highlights of this original home include a gourmet kitchen with labradorite granite counters, 800 year old juniper tree spiral stair case, huge beams and exposed rafters, a sauna, and a romantic wood stove. Also each upstairs bedroom has a hanging bed with three 8 foot skylights above for indoor star gazing. Original artworks from local artists are throughout the home. Many pleasantries await the curious such as embedded fossils in the cracked mud walls.
Nestled amongst towering fir and cedar trees, with windows everywhere, you'll feel and see nature's presence. This home site has a remarkably peaceful way about it.

Recently featured in Southern Oregon Magazine and KCBY 11 TV's ~In Focus~ 'Goin' Green' and Oregon's Solar Home Tour, this is a unique 'green' home. This home was built with environmentally friendly materials. Building with little impact on the surroundings was very important to us during construction. The myrtle hardwood floor in the kitchen and living room was milled on site which came from trees that stood where the house is now. Same story for the beautiful maple flooring in the ½ bath. All of the large beams and fir flooring came from two 4' thick 104 year old douglas fir trees which also stood and were milled where the house is now. The fir trees sprouted after the last forest fire that came through the canyon. One of our neighbors fell a sixty five year old redwood that was over six feet thick! We used some of it as a wonderful wainscot paneling throughout the house. All of the finishes used are no or low VOC. Surrounding the house is native vegetation, huge trees and a few herbs and spices for cooking.

You'll enjoy the fully equipped kitchen with labradorite granite counters. The kitchen island has a new five burner gas stove with a convection oven and warming oven. The island has plenty of granite and wood counter space. Hanging from the exhaust hood are stainless, non-stick, and cast iron cookware. We also provide shade grown fair trade coffee and a grinder, espresso machine, coffee maker, toaster, microwave, utensils, chef knives, glasses and frosty cocktail glasses in the freezer. The dining room table has a river view and can seat six comfortably. There is also seating for three at the island bar. From the kitchen you can visit with the folks in the living room thanks to the open floor plan. Beside the wood stove are two chairs and the futon couch with reading lamp. A CD changer, TV with a DVD player and VHS machine are in the downstairs bedroom. Bring your favorite videos or browse our selection of movies.

The property has 150 feet of creek frontage with great views of Glenn creek, the forest and distant cliffs. Enjoy wildlife viewing with River Dippers, Chipmunks, Kingfishers, Great Blue Herons, Screech Owls, Pileated Wood Peckers, Elk, an occasional Bald Eagle or River Otter and other wildlife from the house and back deck. Build a fire and have lunch on the nearby picnic table and benches.

Heaven
Couldn’t have been more impressed! Absolutely loved the house and everything it has to offer. Having everything thing we needed while being away from the public was a dream. My children and dog absolutely loved the creek and being able to enjoy the forest while us adults enjoyed the break from technology and being able to slow down a bit. Can’t wait to return!

Off the grid dream
This property is an off the grid HEAVEN!! You start by entering through a beautiful glass hobbit style door. You find a whimsical cabin that is fully stocked with literally anything and everything you might need or want. The skylights in the bedrooms mixed with the swinging beds and the sound of the creek outside your windows makes you feel like you are sleeping in the trees. The falls are a short distance away and beautiful. The river was fun to fish (we ate fresh steelhead one night!) The wood burning stove is cozy and warm and heats the entire place. There is a TV with plenty of movies but we chose to be screen free. The circular staircase wrapped around a tree and the suspension hallway is gorgeous. It is the perfect place to escape, relax and recharge. Thank you for creating and sharing it with the world!

40th trip
Happily surprised with stocked organic coffee, foil, garbage bags etc. not common in rentals these days. It’s obvious the hosts care about the property and the people who rent. No complaints. Beautiful property, quirky fun cabin with an obvious creative DIY plan and touch. Watched ducky waddle butts and piglets on the road. Saw eagles, numerous impressive hawks, donkeys, elk, geese, does, fawns, bucks etc. Absolutely loved that it has no Wi-Fi or cell service. Disconnect here if you like quarks, wildlife, moss, the sound is running water and living like we used too (no dumb phone service or internet!) We will return. Also loved Loved the story about the build out of the property as well. Congratulations to you both! Thanks so much. -The Jenkinsons and our friends.

The soothing sound of the nearby river, combined with the warmth of the fireplace, creates a relaxing atmosphere that will be missed long after your stay. Perfect for families with a two-year-old and a dog, the property offers plenty of space to explore and enjoy outdoor adventures. The absence of reception ensures a true break from technology, allowing you to fully immerse yourself in the tranquility of nature. In summary, if you crave a place where you can unwind and embrace Oregon's natural wonders, this property is a hidden gem. With its proximity to waterfalls, fishing opportunities, and the ocean, along with the absence of distractions, it provides an exceptional retreat that will leave you refreshed and longing for more.

Beautiful place
Unfortunately we were not able to stay at the property for a couple reason of which were no fault of the owner, I must say Shane is wonderful to work with, the place is very nice, secluded and has a warm feeling. Do yourself a favor and try to get to the property before dark just to make finding it a little easier, We will definately give this beautiful home another try next time in the area.

Mother's Day Getaway
This home is the perfect place to get off the grid, relax and recharge. Being on the hanging beds feels like being on a slow moving porch swing while gazing at the stars above through the multiple skylights. Swinging in the oversized hammock, sitting by the fire pit or reading in the super comfy living room chairs while hearing the soothing stream takes you back to a simpler time. The house is also the closest home to the water falls which are well worth the short drive and easy hike.

Fantastic
This place is amazing! After a loooong trip from Portland we were so happy to settle down at the cabin for two nights. It was not enough. Getting there is no joke! I was beginning to regret going that far off grid but we all agreed is was worth it. Being without WI Fi was very hard because I had to drive 15 minutes on a winding road to the post office to send emails and check in with my work/ pet sitter. The sound of the river was so relaxing. The bed linens are really good! We cooked the entire time. And they had lots of spices. I even used some of their stuff to complete my recipe! The water falls were so close and easy hike from car (one mile)

Incredible
This house is one of the coolest I have ever been to. The sounds of the river was like a dream. And the falls are absolutely beautiful. On the short hike to the falls we experienced snow, lightning, hale in various sizes, rain, and the sun came out for a few minutes, it was an experience to remember forever.

Winter Solitude Below the Falls
Below the Falls Lodge was everything I was hoping for. The description is spot on and we had a great adventure between Christmas and New Year's Eve. We arrived a few hours before a classic Oregon Coast Storm took the power out but still made the most of the trip. The lodge was equipped to handle such situations but unfortunately didn't get to enjoy the excellent little sauna until the power came back on the last 3 hours of the trip. Such a unique design, and the location is what it is all about. Excellent communication from the owner and helpful information posted around the house. Hopefully can come back some day when the electricity is on, but being without was actually quite relaxing with the wood stove radiating dry warmth as the rain and rushing river were singing outside. Very cool home, wonderful location and experience.
