ROMANTIC LODGING
Warm Retreats
for your Romantic Winter Getaway
in the Villages of Mt Hood
Cozy in Your Own Cabin
Though it’s cold outside, you and your special one will only feel warmth and comfort in one of The Villages at Mt Hood’s mountain cabins. Imagine what a peaceful
feeling you’ll share when you look out the windows together to find yourselves surrounded by snowy forest. Perhaps you’ll get the rare treat of catching a snowflake on your tongue while soaking in a hot tub, or catch an early-morning glimpse of foraging deer as you sip your coffee.
If you choose a cabin lodging, you’ll experience the area in its most characteristic and unique way. Many properties, such as the Steiner cabins,
are historically significant as well as examples of the highest craftsmanship. Whichever you choose, you’ll find yourself in close contact with the forest landscape, yet able to treat yourself to fine amenities. It’s a way of life that you won’t easily find anywhere else in Oregon, but The Villages of Mt Hood are rich in opportunities for a natural getaway.
All the Comforts
You might prefer the cozy camaraderie you can find at one of the Villages’ bed and breakfast inns. You’ll have a fine morning meal provided for you, and the chance to chat and make a new friend or two. You'll find a wonderful variety of B&B's to choose from in The Villages of Mt. Hood -- we've listed several for you at the end of this article.
Romantic Getaway
If it’s full luxury lodging you’d like for your mountain getaway, The Resort at The Mountain has a room for you. Their Wine, Romance and Roses package provides a night’s stay for two that includes a fruit and cheese platter, a bottle of wine, 2 wine glasses and rose petals on the bed. For an extra $65 you can each receive a half-hour massage!
