A colossal, looming boulder, a refuge from fierce winter storms for pioneers. Within the spacious cavern, a gentle stream murmured, offering shelter to several people.

Back when the Santiam Wagon Road was in use (between 1865 and 1939), House Rock offered temporary shelter during storms. This massive stone forms a natural cave. Giant old growth trees surround this interesting spot on the old wagon road. Definitely worth taking some time to check it out.
