Zane Grey Cabin

Zane Grey Cabin is a log structure on the north bank of the Rogue River in Oregon. The building displays traditional frontier construction methods using wood from the surrounding forest.

The cabin was built in 1926 and served as a writing retreat for an American Western novelist until 1935. It received recognition on the National Register of Historic Places in 2016.

The cabin shows how wilderness shaped a writer's work and creative vision. Visitors can observe how Grey's daily life blended adventure with his writing practice.

The exterior of the structure remains viewable, though the interior is not open due to private ownership. You can examine the building from outside and explore the riverside location.

The author selected this location for its excellent fishing waters, which influenced his storytelling. Multiple Western novels were written here, emerging from the blend of writing and outdoor pursuits.
