Drag your toes through the cool water and look for pretty rocks in the summer and sit on the deck to enjoy your coffee on a cool winter morning.

Whether you are seeking a peaceful retreat, a romantic getaway, or simply want to experience a natural river, you will find what you are looking for "up the crik". 

Less than an hours drive from Interstate - 5, the South Santiam Cottages combine the magic of a remote getaway with the convenience of a nearby highway.

Bring your camera/binoculars. Birds and wildlife are around...but timing is everything. We enjoy the ducks and geese, river otter and beaver, eagles and ospreys just to mention a few.We also have quite a variety of wild flowers in season.For your viewing pleasure, Click Here .

These quaint little cottages were built in the first half of the 1900's.

They have been updated with remodeled kitchens and  bathrooms, converted from wood to  propane "wood stove style" heaters, and the latest addition is wifi.

Continuous improvements are being made. Last spring, the cottages had most of the antique windows replaced with vinyl. What a great improvement for heating and cooling!

All units are smoke free, linens are provided as well a well stocked full kitchen; they overlook the river and each have their own deck with river access + convenient parking.
