Wayfarer Resort

Wayfarer Resort’s 13 private, fully-appointed cabins perch on the banks of the emerald green McKenzie River and Marten Creek just below the rapid. Open-beamed ceilings, spacious decks and fireplaces create a special sense of solitude and comfort amidst the Cascade Mountains and surrounding forest land. Cabins vary in size to easily accommodate from 2 to 8 people… ideal for family vacations, reunions, retreats, workshops, or quiet get-aways.

Serenity

I have stayed in one of the one bedroom cabins on the creek on 5 or 6 occasions for several days each visit. It is one of my favorite places in the world! Not fancy but extremely comfortable and homey in a gorgeous relaxing setting. It’s a wonderful place to bring your dog and unwind with friends and family. As soon as I get there, I feel peace. Surrounded on 2 sides by river and creek. Listening to the rapids/waterfall while sitting on your deck is wonderful. Fresh hazelnuts. Barbecue and kitchen. Fireplace. Comfortable beds. I can hardly wait to return.

Great location + variety of lodging

We stayed at the Wayfarer for 3 nights thanks to a friend's recommendation. The property is gorgeous, well maintained, and offers lots of recreational opportunities for families including tennis, volleyball, basketball, fishing pond for kids, horseshoes, etc. We stayed in a one bedroom cabin on the creek; in the future I'd spring for an accommodation on the river. Perfect for groups, family reunions, friends retreats, weddings, anniversary celebrations. Large beach area, fire pit, comfy chairs enabled us to enjoy the river day and night. Cabins are well equipped with kitchen necessities + charcoal bbq's on the deck. Very clean & pet friendly.

Amazingly gorgeous and absolutely peaceful!

We were part of a large business retreat, my husbands meetings kept him during the day, but I got to enjoy the river, the creek, the pond, the solitude, and the time spent there. the cabins are perfectly comfortable, with a kitchen to cook in and w a fantastic view! I got to watch countless ducks and geese make their landing on the river, the creek is a great burbler and the pond evokes nostalgia! By the way, thank you for arranging such great weather while we were there ;)

Three wonderful days at a hidden jem

From the time I checked in until checkout the staff were friendly and helpful to myself and my 4 legged companion Lady. The cabin was clean and we had everything we needed to make ourselves comfortable and relaxed. We just added the food we brought with us. A perfect getaway for reading a good book, watching the wildlife and action on the McKenzie river. Plenty of room to roam and take walks with your special pooch also. Thank you Mike and everyone for the special visit.

perfect rural retreat

Stayed here with a large group of my wife's coworkers. We had three units, including "The Octogon," which is an awesome house that served as the "home base" for the weekend. large deck, on the river, fully stocked kitchen, grills and a fire pit. My wife and I stayed in the "Ol' Homestead" which is a quaint three bedroom cabin with an all glass wall in the living room that looks out on the river. Beds were comfortable, water hot, wifi strong and a cable also included. Beautiful location on the river, near fly fishing and hiking. If you want a memorable and quite weekend away this is your place1
