As the foodie hub of the Gorge, Hood River is blessed with great farm-to-table restaurants, up-and-coming craft breweries, and fantastic local wineries. With local orchards and farmsteads mingling with the vineyards and virgin forest, a winery tour is both a scenic and tasty way to explore this beautiful region. Anyone into aviation shouldn’t miss a visit to Hood River’s largest museum, the Western Antique Aeroplane and Automobile Museum. It hosts the Hood River Fly-In on the first weekend after Labor Day each year, which features antique aircraft and automobiles from across America.
With a plethora of world-class mountain bike trails, and scenic hiking possibilities, Hood River offers many opportunities to get back to nature. Climbing, white-water rafting, fishing, world-beating windsurfing, and kiteboarding are also available, but there’s plenty for the less active. Besides great views of Mount Adams and the wide, sparkling blue Columbia River, the attractions of Hood River’s quaint Downtown include wine-tasting rooms, boutique shops, and art galleries.
Summers in Hood River are warm and dry. But with snow always on the Palmer Snowfield on Mount Hood, a Hood River vacation rental offers year-round skiing opportunities. Winters are colder and wetter, but Hood River gets less rain that nearby Portland, for example. The ski season proper runs November to May, with Mount Hood Meadows Ski Resort just 35 miles from Hood River. In April, visitors flock to the Hood River Valley Blossom Festival, while September and October play host to the Hood River Hops Fest, and the Hood River Valley Harvest Fest, respectively.
A Hood River vacation rental is perfectly placed for enjoying outdoor sports. The Hook is the city’s protected harbor for learning windsurfing, while the Hood River Waterfront Park boasts a public pool, skate park, biking trails, and several ball fields. Just out of town, you can enjoy the Pacific Northwest’s nature at its finest: head to Vinzenz Lausmann Memorial State Natural Area, Panorama Point County Park, or the Dry Creek Falls trailhead for stunning mountain views, scented fir and cedar forests, mossy trails, and the unmistakable sound of water rushing over rock from one of the area’s many beautiful waterfalls.
The nearest airport is in Portland, OR (PDX-Portland Intl.), located 52.6 mi (84.6 km) from the city center.
