This is one of our favorite places to visit. It is especially beautiful in the spring but is a good visit year round. The main blooming season is very long from March through June.

There is much more to do here than ski! This is one of our favorite places. The lodge was built by the CCC (Civilian Conservation Corp) in 1937 and has some of the most beautiful artisan architecture in the country. Every part of the lodge was handcrafted. There are two dining areas, the Cascade Dining Room and Ram's Head Bar and Restaurant. The Cascade Dining Room has a wonderful brunch on weekends. I highly recommend it! In the summer you can ride the ski lift to the highest part of the ski area and back down. There are two gift shops that are very nice. One in the main lodge and one in the ski lodge.

This is a must see. One of the most beautiful places in the country. There is a bus that will take you from Portland to Hood River with several stops on the way. There is also a trolley that will take you on Old US 30 to the waterfalls. This is a ton of fun and you don't have to drive or find parking!
