Laughing Bear Log Cabin
You know you're at the Laughing Bear Log Cabin when you see the statue of the laughing bear out front. Situated in the forests of the Cascade Mountains outside Portland, this colorful 1,300-square-foot cabin was built in 1930 but keeps things modern with a kitchen equipped with a refrigerator, microwave and convection oven. Keep warm by the fireplace or play survivalist down in the basement. Other amenities include a patio, hot tub, barbecue, fire pit and tool shed.

Aspen Cabin
East of Portland runs a gigantic green belt of national forests that includes the Fremont-Winema National Forest. Inside this rugged and rustic park lies Aspen Cabin, a destination as far away as getaways get. Built in 1930 as worksite for Forest Service employees, this log cabin is not a luxury destination. That means no hot tub, no TV and no four-post bed. What you do get are four cots, a dining table, chairs, countertop and a wood stove to keep you warm. Bring your own forks and spoons. Bring your own bedding. And bring your own water--that means filling your jugs in the nearby Mud Creek Campground.
