Your Mt. Hood Winter Adventure Needs A Base Camp

Find the perfect place to stay that puts winter adventure within reach.

Winter on Mt. Hood isn't just a season for sitting around. It's for first tracks, snowy trails, sledding hills, guided snowshoe adventures and days spent outside until your cheeks are red. But winter can also be about slowing down and curling up by a window with a warm drink to watch snow quietly fall through the trees.

After all, your Mt. Hood adventure is yours to enjoy at your own pace. Whether you're chasing powder, bringing the family for a day in the snow, gathering the whole crew for a winter getaway or simply looking for a peaceful place to watch the snow fall, here's where to set up your Mt. Hood winter base camp.
