Absolutely beautiful. The Visitor Center has basic amenities, and theres a restaurant & coffee stand as well. You can walk/hike as far as you want, path is clearly paved and is suitable for all ages, depending on where you stop. Would definitely recommend visiting!

Beautiful waterfalls and views are amazing. I went on a very rainy Saturday in November. Multnomah Falls was very busy and you had to pay to park. The rest of the falls had very few people around them and plenty of parking.

Absolutely stunning. Recommend going earlier in the morning to avoid the crowds. Especially if you plan on going on the hikes, the trails can be quiet narrow and points without guard rails on the hike to the lookout point. Bring non slip shoes, the trails can be slippery with the moisture and leave litter.

Totally worth it! However parking was at a premium! We finally found parking at the Horsetail Waterfall. This is an easier and shorter hike. Very enjoyable. Stunning views!

Biking through the Columbia River Gorge is one of the most scenic and refreshing experiences imaginable. 🚴‍♀️🌲 Every turn reveals another postcard-perfect view — waterfalls cascading beside the trail, dramatic cliffs, and endless stretches of forest meeting the river. The path is well maintained, with a great balance of gentle rides and more challenging stretches for those wanting a bit of adventure. It’s the kind of ride where you can stop often just to take in the views (and you absolutely should). The mix of fresh air, natural beauty, and peaceful rhythm of the ride makes this trail unforgettable. Whether you’re a serious cyclist or just out for a scenic ride, the Gorge biking trail is pure Oregon magic.

The Columbia River Gorge National Scenic Area, a breathtaking natural corridor in the Pacific Northwest, offers a dramatic blend of towering cliffs, roaring waterfalls, lush forests, and expansive river vistas. Its accessibility and endless exploration make it a must-visit destination. What sets the Gorge apart is its unique landscape, shaped by ice-age floods and the relentless forces of wind, water, and time. The contrast between the dense green forests on the Oregon side and the rolling golden hills on the Washington side, with the mighty Columbia River stretching between them like a silver ribbon, creates a stunning visual spectacle. Key highlights and must-see attractions include: - Multnomah Falls: The most renowned waterfall in the Gorge, a magnificent 620-foot, two-tier cascade. Despite its popularity, it’s worth the visit. - Latourell, Wahkeena, and Horsetail Falls: Accessible and picturesque, these falls offer excellent loop hikes that take you from streamside trails to high viewpoints. - Vista House at Crown Point: A classic stop providing sweeping views of the entire river corridor. - Dog Mountain (Washington): A challenging hike that rewards you with massive spring wildflowers and panoramic views of the Gorge. - Rowena Crest (Oregon): Iconic horseshoe curves and sweeping golden scenery, especially stunning at sunrise or during spring bloom. - The Historic Columbia River Highway: A scenic drive filled with viewpoints, stone bridges, and waterfall trailheads. Outdoor activities abound in the Gorge, catering to various interests. Whether you’re seeking adventure, tranquility, or simply a chance to immerse yourself in nature, the Columbia River Gorge National Scenic Area offers an unforgettable experience. The Gorge, a haven for outdoor enthusiasts, offers a plethora of activities such as hiking, cycling, windsurfing, kiteboarding, fishing, and scenic driving. Nestled in the heart of the region, Hood River stands as one of the best outdoor towns, boasting an array of breweries, cafés, and gear shops to complement your adventure. The Gorge’s atmosphere and scenery are nothing short of captivating. From the dramatic cliffs that rise sharply above the water to the evergreen forests draped in moss, cascading waterfalls plunging through basalt canyons, and the ever-changing weather and light, every corner of the Gorge presents a unique spectacle. Spring, in particular, transforms the landscape into a vibrant tapestry of green, creating an enchanting and magical ambiance. While some areas may require timed permits during peak seasons, particularly around Multnomah Falls, planning ahead ensures a smooth and enjoyable experience. The unpredictable weather of Oregon, characterized by sudden shifts from sunny to rainy, adds to the allure of the Gorge. It creates a dynamic and alive landscape that keeps visitors on their toes. While major waterfalls attract crowds, the Gorge offers a plethora of quieter trails and lesser-known spots for those seeking solitude and tranquility. Whether you’re an adrenaline junkie or a nature lover, the Gorge promises an unforgettable adventure.

Wahclella Falls Trail was a fantastic easier hike. Pretty rocky with some cliffs and a few steep sections but overall not bad. Multnomah falls were definitely worth checking out too, Great accessibility there.

5 stars does what a mountain is supposed to do. Tall beautiful surrounded by forests and water.

It stands out very clearly as a background to Lake Trillium some 55-60 miles from Portland. Most of the time it’s laden with great snow and looks golden when sun is shining.

In October 2022, the four of us—dad, mom, me, and mom’s mom—took a scenic drive to Mt. Hood. We didn’t hike, but viewing the mountain from the car was still incredible. The peak was majestic, rising above forests of autumn-colored trees, and the crisp October air made the scenery feel even more vivid. It was a peaceful way to enjoy the natural beauty without leaving the car, and the drive offered several pull-offs to pause and take in the panoramic views. Even just seeing Mt. Hood from the road made for a memorable family outing.

Always wanted to visit Mount hood and Timberline Lodge and was extremely lucky to visit on a recent holiday to Oregan not many times do I get lost for words but this place is extraordinary taking photos and videos doesn't do the place justice the trees the sky the environment is breath taking I'll definitely return one day and is one place I recommend

Splendid, Awesome. You must go there when you visit Portland Qregon area around. People were playing ski during late June season. White snow capped huge mount all year round.

From hikes around the mountain, to scenic views Mt hood is perfect for a weekend getaway. I highly recommend going during the summer/fall months before the snow comes!

It's a good place to see the snow mountains in summer and camping. The lake below the snow mountain is very beautiful, you can paddle inside to relax and enjoy the spectacular views of the snow mountains. It seems to be much cooler in summer time, a good place to get out of hot summer. The camping site was very quite.

Fantastic train ride! Really well organized from start to finish. The train ride wasn’t too long at all, the scenery was gorgeous, the stop at the Fruit Company & the winery was so fun! Cannot recommend enough!

Our group of four, (ages ranged as young as 12 to 35), had such a great time riding the train carts. Our host, Krissy was super funny, pleasant, and knowledgeable. We felt safe and had such a fun time. We stopped at the Fruit Company and checked out Mt Hood Winery during our excursion. The children are allowed in the winery, and we enjoyed the stunning view of Mt Hood as we relaxed before our journey back to the train station. The staff were kind and so helpful. We highly recommend checking them out! It’s a perfect summertime adventure.

The rail bikes were a great experience! A pretty awesome way to check out the area and get to the fruit company! Staff was awesome the whole way around Krissy was very entertaining throughout even when we failed the quiz! Gotta make sure to studdy up! :)

We had the chance to go on the rail bikes and my friend and I had an amazing time. The tour Guide was amazing and funny. Lots of good jokes and riddles. The Rail bikes were really fun and the views were beautiful. We got lucky and had a bright sunny day that was not to hot or cold. Though id love to go during a gloomy day and see the different scenery during that time. It was easy to ride. Peddling was fun and at times tough but the electric motor helped a lot. Overall, we had an amazing time and would LOVE to come back!

My son got a gift card to the railroad for his birthday & we went on the fall train ride. We had an incredible time! I would say if you have a busy kid then I would bring activities to do on the train & pack snacks. I do love that you can bring your own food & bevs. They do have snacks, food & beverages (NA & alcoholic) for purchase on the train which was fun to have a mimosa as you’re looking at beautiful scenery. The stop at the fruit company & winery was well worth it! The taco truck at the winery was so freaking good! I would definitely do it again but maybe without kiddos. We had a good time with the kids but I would definitely be able to take a lot more in without a 3yo & 6mo. 10/10 5 stars, very good time nonetheless.

Visiting Portland Oregon. This is a Must visit spot !! We had an awesome experience. On this journey. The staff was very kind and attentive. The train itself interior and exterior very well-maintained seats are very comfortable. Also, the fact that you get to visit their personal Vineyard 🍇 and Warehouse , learned a little bit about the history. Got to taste some really good pears 🍐 Overall, a great experience!!

The train ride was fun! The destination was simply another gift shop, a quick wine tasting and a hidden taco food truck. Suffice to say the 45 minute stop was disappointing. Nothing there for kids. The train staff and the ride was great though!

We arrived for their annual Fly-in. It is always an excellent event. The museum itself is phenomenal. The variety of airplanes, antique cars and various other collections are mind boggling but, incredibly well curated, so not too overwhelming. Their staff is very knowledgeable and friendly. On the fly-in weekend, anywhere from 200 - 400 vintage airplanes fly in from all over the country. There are some flight demonstrations, author talks, you can pay to fly in a vintage airplane, plus lots more exhibits, food and souvenirs. The museum is worthy of a visit any time but, during the fly-in it is extra wonderful.

Amazing museum with stuff 100+ years old that still works! We spent close to 2 hours here and loved every minute of it. Kudos to the great volunteers who staff this museum. If you're nearby or traveling through the Columbia Gorge, definitely pay a visit.

Very nice place to visit. We really enjoyed seeing so much planes, cars and a OTHER items and occasional videos to watch in the hangers. I really liked that most ALL the pieces and cars and such are in exquisit PRESTINE condition. _ like WOW!!!!. A few Things I wasn't very happy about; 1. that they are quite PRICEY. $25 for adults, like $21 for military or active duty people or seniors and 18_ under is like $12. EACH. no family mates, no EBT discounts. Nothing! 2. For the amount they charge, i would THINK that there shouldn't have to be big old drip pans under all the equipment. ESPECIALLY with some of them have obviously been leaking pretty bad. Thry Charge so much, but cant at a bare minimum clean the drip pans so there isn't so much contaminant around. It does detract from the wow of the pieces. 3. While looking around, the " volunteer" guys in the scooters kept coming around. OK_ they already tell you "if you need something or have a question to flag them down and they will be happy to answer any queations..." I DONT have any questions you don't have to b_line for me every time you go down the rows and point out something or make some comment about a piece. YES it IS very cool!! BUT- unless I (ASK) for info or such, i dont need someone tailgating me_ like you have to check on us like were DOING or "TOUCHING" something. It seriously takes a negative toll on the experience. At the same time; at one point my children were really Awing over an electric car from like over 100 years ago; the volunteer came over and pulled back the chain did a bit of describing and let my kids get a much closer view of the car interior, that was pretty cool!

This was really cool. You can get lost in all of them. I only covered 1/3 of the items. In two hours. Lots to see. And a great bbq food cart, highly rated. And if you really want to go up in a triplane you can. Good family fun!!!!

This is the most complex museum I've been to. It's easier to ask "what don't you have!" A Deusenburg one docent told me! You have to experience this place. Be prepared to spend a couple hours if not more. We came across this place accidentally and were totally blown away!

Huge selection of aircraft and autos, mostly early 20th century. Fascinating, also liked the multiple videos available to watch. Highly recommend at least a few hours to enjoy it.

Got to experience the fly in event and it was amazing. Talking to pilots seeing the exhibits and the behind the scenes of the restoration processes. I highly recommend this museum.

This winery is so lovely & enjoyable. There is a resident winery cat and dog that are so sweet and made our visit even better! The fire pit is cozy and made us feel so welcome. We can tell the owners put so much love into this place. Grape vines are very where, creating a perfect ambiance and separated each “cubby” where you can enjoy your own private space for wine tasting with your very own fire pit. The Pinot Grigio and all the red wines we tried were fantastic. Attentive staff and beautiful ambiance! Highly recommend!

One of the most amazing tasting rooms I’ve been to! We sat in a beautiful hut surrounded by and looking out at the vineyards.

Beautiful setting, delicious wines. We love this winery, they have great covered outdoor seating.

Lovely wine. Lovely time. Beautiful "cabana-esque" tasting area (some come with fire pits for those cold PNW days/evenings) overlooking the vines. Wish we lived closer so we could come all the time!

The wine is delicious, but the experience was anything but. There were 4 groups seated after we were seated, yet they had their flights and snack orders before our second pour. The small snack board took nearly 30 minutes to appear due to the need to let a different individual know we had put an order in. Our original person went on break after our first pour, I believe. We did get the small board after our third pour, and then received our fourth and final pour, as one was skipped. I completely understand breaks and making sure that club members are taken care of, but were we actually interested in the wine club, this would have killed it for us. Every person is a potential club member, and team communication is extremely important.

What an amazing atmosphere! You feel like you were transported to Italy. With fantastic wine (all with their own personal description/ story from the owner), wonderful service and an amazing view! My husband and I were visiting the area and had a bad experience with one of the wineries down the road due to them being not so pet friendly as they claimed so we looked for something else and came across this one and called explaining we had a little dog with us and the owner explained they are not just pet friendly but people friendly, kid friendly, they loved everyone! Once we arrived the owner even came and greeted us personally, giving our little dog a treat. We were thrilled! Oh and we got a little private booth overlooking the vineyard and wow what a view! I have the say the most beautiful vineyard I've personally ever been to and the wine was delicious! I personally recommend the Barbera 2020 for any red wine lovers. Our server was also extremely knowledgeable and friendly too! Overall if you're in the area, this is a MUST STOP!!

Fantastic ambiance. The service and views were excellent. If you sit outside your gazebo is partially in the vineyard!

Friendly service and a great atmosphere with a nice view. Beer is great! The food is good but inconsistent. Prices are on the higher side but that's basically everywhere in HR. Definitely recommend if you're in the area!

What a great spot for lunch and a beer! I have always enjoyed the Full Sail line-up, so it was a treat to stop in and have a beer. As an added bonus, the food is EXCELLENT! The Korean BBQ Fried Chicken Sanwich was so good! The Full Sail burger was also great! Super friendly staff, and great views of the river. Great place, cool town, we will definitely be back! Also, if you like fly fishing, dont forget to check out the Big Y Fly Company right next door!

Classic beers that lean into IPAs but they also have a decent stout. The food is pretty good as well. We had an appetizer of pretzel sticks which came with an amazing beer cheese soup. Their burgers were pretty good as well.

Our tour guide, Adam, from Infinite Oregon Tours, recommended this place and the Salmon Fish and Chips were excellent! I didn't catch her name, but our waitress was the best!

This place has a good variety of IPA's, ales, and stouts. The presentation on the beer flight is amazing. The staff are kind and the there is a phenomenal view of the Columbia River.

Great food to complement the beers. Wish we had time to go on the brewery tour. Salmon fish and chips was very good and quite a portion of excellent fries. The beer Mac and cheese was great as well. Can't wait to try other items next time.

23.5 years ago was my first date with my wife at Full Sail. She drank dark beer. I knew she was a keeper. Speaking of keeper, I hope they keep the fish (salmon) and chips. I love their tartar sauce. The caprese sandwich is a great selection for those who need a vegan or vegetarian option. Full Sail is a great spot when you are at the windsurfing capitol of the world! Enjoy.

If I could give 0 stars, I would. My partner and I walked into Evoke Winery after celebrating our marriage application, hoping to enjoy a good glass of wine, but the experience was beyond disappointing. We sat at the bar for 20 minutes without being greeted or acknowledged. There was no one attending the bar, even though three ladies were seated to the right and a girl was on a computer nearby. It felt like we didn’t exist. The lack of customer service was shocking and ruined what should have been a special moment for us. I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone.

New location on Oak Street has outdoor seating, and the usual fantastic wines and friendly service. They have a great selection of naked flights!

Love the new Tasting room in their barrel room. So cozy and you are really in the winery now. Try the Tannat its our favorite!

Stopped in for a tasting. Wow! Their new space is beautiful. Staff was great. Highly recommended.

Great selection of wines and solid curation of flights. Definitely some marketing genius with all the fun wine names and menu layout. Also appreciate the variety of seating, from cozy to group friendly.

Came on a Sunday afternoon during a girls trip bachelorette weekend and loved the atmosphere! Service was very friendly and welcoming. Good wine too!

Love the variety and the wine and the wine stewards are always very kind and helpful to people who are brand new or those tasting for years!

Higher elevation switchbacks closer to the top. Challenging rocky parts, but worth it! Rate: 7 moderate Parking fee/pass: There is NOT a ticket both at the trailhead.

Mirror Lake in the snow is pure magic. The trail is manageable even with snowshoes or microspikes, and the forest feels incredibly peaceful under a fresh blanket of white. Once you reach the lake, everything slows down — the snow-covered trees reflecting in the frozen water, and if you’re lucky, a view of Mt. Hood peeking through the clouds. It’s a relatively short hike, but the winter setting makes it feel like a true getaway. Just be prepared for icy patches and chilly wind by the lake — and bring hot cocoa if you’re into that kind of thing. Totally worth it.

A relaxing and easy trail with a lovely view of Mt. Hood in the distance. I can imagine it’s especially beautiful in autumn when the leaves turn red, or in winter when the mountain is covered in snow.

Hike to mirror lake is 4+ miles round trip. Trail head is changed now. Half the trail is pretty new. Trail is very pretty, though the woods. Keeps climbing on the way to the lake. Effort is really worth it. Lake is really pretty. you can see the reflection of Mt Hood and trees around the lake. There is a camp site as well next to the lake. I saw couple of folks doing fly fishing. Don't miss it if you are visting Mt Hood and have enough time.

Trail is very busy on a summer weekend and dusty for most of the climb up to the lake, but the view of Mt. Hood is gorgeous.

Beautiful place. The hike is more difficult than I realized. The switchbacks at the end take a while. The wind wouldn't cooperate for the mirror reflection, but still very peaceful and picturesque.

Hiked from Mirror Lake Trailhead Tuesday 10/6/2020. Great trail for small children. Started on trail at 2am. One other vehicle in the lot when I arrived. Trailhead has two vaulted toilets with air fresheners and well stocked with toilet paper. Trash can behind bathrooms. Picnic table, bike parking and trail information board in front of bathrooms. There are two handicap parking spaces here and the trail is handicap accessible for the first .27 miles after that it becomes Forrested dirt with a gradual up hill. The parking area holds 30+ vehicles and was more than halfway full when we were finished hiking at 10:30am. There was broken glass in the parking lot (looked like from break ins). The TH is right off of the highway (right next to Skibowl). You need a Northwest Forrest Pass ($30), America the Beautiful Pass ($80) or pre purchase a day pass ($5) as there is no fee pay station at this TH. This trail is easy with great trail markers. From the TH to Mirror Lake is a gradual up hill, all forrested and about ten creek crossings, all with bridges. Saw 10+ poop sacks all within the first mile of the TH (I picked them all up), after that it was TP and micro trash (I picked that up as well). Mirror Lake (4 miles RT) would be a great beginner backpacking trip, great camp spots here. There is also a trail that loops around the lake that I did not do. Also you can hear traffic from the highway the entire time. Remember pack it in, pack it out. Leave no trace. Leave the trails better than you found them.

We stopped by to do a wine tasting here. While it looks very pretty. We did not stay or see more than the parking lot due to the fact that they advertised as “dog friendly” but they clearly are not. They limit the dogs to a small strip of grass with three metal tables several feet from the actual winery and across a parking lot. While I understand not wanting dogs on their property they should simply state that not pets are allowed so that people traveling with a pet don’t make the drive. Due to their lack of access to people with pets we were unable to even try their wine so I cannot state weather or not they are any good. Thankfully this is a very large winery area and we were able to be accommodated at another amazing location so thankfully the drive was not wasted.

My husband and I came here to try something different. We did the reserve tasting that comes with choice of chocolate. We also got the deluxe pairing plate which was very good. Would like to come back during summer months.

Cathedral Ridge Winery in Hood River Oregon offers a beautiful view, award winning delicious wines and amazing atmosphere. We had a very wonderful time and enjoyed the friendly, knowledgeable, and professional staff that made sure our experience was one to remember. The wines, of course were exceptional. I definitely recommend stopping by here if you find yourself in the area and it is well worth the drive from the Happy Valley or the Portland area. Saluti! 🍷

What a wonderful experience. We did the classic wine tasting, you get 4 classic wines and 2 reserve wines. Staff are very friendly and helpful in choosing from the many varietals. Beautiful property and view of the gorge. We were blessed to have Jesseca as our wine server/enthusiast. She was great and felt like a friend immediately. My wife and I had such a great experience. We will be back for sure.

It’s a lovely and cozy place to enjoy some wine. The indoor décor is warm and comfortable, and the staff are friendly and easy to chat with. There’s a great selection of wines to choose from. The outdoor area is beautiful, surrounded by trees, green grass, and hanging grapevines, with a gorgeous view of the valley. You can even see the mountain ridges in the distance — a perfect spot to relax and unwind for the day.

We really enjoyed the tasting experience. The staff was skilled with not only the descriptions and tasting notes of the wines, but even where the grapes that they used to make the wines in house came from. Will definitely visit again next time we're in the region.

From the moment I walked in as a solo wine taster, I was treated like a rock star. Seriously! Anna, the tasting room specialist who was helping me, was positively superb in her recommendations, helpfulness, and attentiveness. This made my whole experience positively delightful and welcoming. I'm excited to join the wine club and receive the top notch reds that Cathedral Ridge produces thanks to Gina (wine club manager) and Anna. Highly recommend visiting!

The Gorge White House Farm We returned after nearly 20 years and were delighted to find this farm even more magical than what we remembered. U-pick offerings included cherries, blackberries, blueberries, raspberries, pears, strawberries, and even flowers—truly a harvest paradise! It was so much fun wandering from crop to crop, filling our red bucket as we went. No need to separate the fruits—everything was weighed together at a very reasonable $6 per pound. One of the highlights was ducking under the cherry trees to discover clusters of fat, juicy, dark cherries just waiting to be picked. After picking, we enjoyed relaxing at the outdoor tables with tastings of local ciders and wines. The atmosphere was laid-back and welcoming, making it a truly memorable visit. A must-stop in the Fruit Loop for anyone who loves fresh fruit, beautiful surroundings, and a little farm-to-table fun!

Yesterday, it popped in my head to sit in the sun with a good drink and bask in the view and the first place that came to mind was The Gorge White House. I visited last year and enjoyed myself so much I had to return. They have a hard cider flight with all flavors made on the premises and they have a rotating set of additional flavors. I tried the raspberry lemonade and was so impressed. I brought my own growler and saved money on filling it and also got a glass. I ordered a sandwich at the food truck and decided to u pick while I waited. The Bing cherries were abundant while the Queen Anne led me on a merry chase. The blueberries, blackberries and raspberries were beautiful and then my text with lunch went off. I now get to enjoy this grilled sandwich and fries. Couldn't have planned it better! Everyone here is helpful and nice. Excellent!

Such a beautiful place — the house looks stunning, the gardens are full of life, with vibrant flowers, lush greenery, and breathtaking mountain views. It’s the perfect spot to hang out with friends, enjoy a picnic, and savor some wine.

I did lots of research on the fruit loop stops, and all pointed me to this one. It had reasonable prices and the friendliest service. The young lady in the fruit stand was super helpful and friendly. This location had all the fruits you could want. The views cannot be beat!

Very cute place that you can do flower peeking, apple picking or pear picking. If you don’t wanna do any activities, you can also just chill under the cover. They have a lot of wine and cider options. If you’re not sure where it’s at, you can always try the flight. Definitely recommend a visit if you’re looking for a weekend getaway close to Portland.

Great cider, beer, and wine collections. Great place to hang out with friends for a quick weekend getaway. The staff was super friendly and gave good recommendations. She also let us taste before making an order, which was super nice of her. The view of Mt.Hoot and the sunset time of the mountains is fabulous!! Fruit here was very pricy. Rainier cherry is 10.99/lb, unbelievable and red cherry is 8.99/lb.... Overall, it was a super fun place to hang out, and we had a great time.

Love this place, even though it’s often busy. The wine tastings are excellent and the food is good, but be prepared for a wait. Parking is plentiful, with lots of seating available. The vineyards are beautiful to stroll through, offering stunning views of Mt. Adams. And sometimes peak on Mt Hood.

My partner and I only tried a glass of wine each, we came pretty close to closing time, however we still had a really relaxing time. Nice patio and great view of the mountain!

Our last winery tour on this vacation trip. We split a tasting and enjoyed the lighter reds. We enjoyed the views while doing the tasting on the patio! We went in and talked with the staff and then they let us taste another bolder red and we bought a bottle to enjoy on our last evening before we flew out! What a highlight of the trip!

Mt. Hood Winery, an absolutely fantastic experience! The wine tasting flight was exceptional, showcasing a wonderful variety of their best wines. The views from the winery are breathtaking, making the experience even more memorable. What truly stood out was the outstanding customer service. Dylan, in particular, went above and beyond to ensure my visit was perfect. His knowledge and enthusiasm made the tasting more enjoyable than I could have anticipated. I highly recommend Mt. Hood Winery for anyone looking to enjoy great wine, stunning scenery, and top-notch service. Visited July 6, 2024

Well we hit this on a gorgeous fall day which makes wine tasting even better. The colors, the wine, the people, the setting all perfect! Had a great time with a fabulous atmosphere and very friendly service! The view and the landscape are amazing. It’s on the “Fruit Loop” in Hood River. Lots of parking. Great indoor and outdoor parking and fun places to take pics.

Delicious wines!!! Great landscapes to see!!! So peaceful and relaxing. It is a short drive from Hood River but the views on that drive are so worth the time. You can appreciate being away from the world and see the fields of green and the mountain in the background. The building is well lit and very nice inside. Has great artwork from the surrounding artists. Then you get to the wine sampling. I took advantage and sampled all the wines I could. $20 for five samples of whatever wines you choose that are on the list. So I got 10 samples of the house wines. Some were dry reds and some were sweet, but oh the flavors hit the palette and sent waves of great taste to your senses. The wines average $20 and above but so worth the price for great Oregon wines.

Very nice winery. Large tasting room. Friendly staff. Convenient to the highway. About 12 wines, 6 whites, 6 reds. We tasted the reds. They were fine but not exceptional. Tasting was a bit pricey at $20. Wines priced a bit high for the quality. Setting is nice but relatively flat. Nice view of Mount Hood. Overall we give it 4 stars.

What a great escape while on the Hood River Fruit Loop. We had a bunch of places highlighted on the map to explore. But we chose to take our time instead of making it a mad dash afternoon. We stopped into Mt. Hood Winery and instantly loved the place. It was a bright sunny day and we had a chance to try there flight of wines and also a few more that they just opened. Each wine was tasteful, great flavor, drinkable and fresh. The team at the winery were beyond gracious, and really wanted us to relax and enjoy. I’m so glad we stopped in and took the time to sample each option. We will be back, the service, the wine and view was ideal for a perfect early fall day in Hood River.

Panorama Point county Park has a beautiful view to Mount Hood

Absolutely glorious view of Mt. Hood, but best seen mid-morning and in full sun.

I love the view from this county park! It is part of the Froot Loop in Hood River. The view is great with a front and center look at Mount Hood.

Great spot to take in the views. No charge, public restroom available, and a beautiful view of Mt Hood and the surrounding area.

Great views of Mount Hood and the surrounding areas. Easy to access

Get place to hike around and see the wild flowers and My. Hood if it's not cloudy.

This place is beautiful, free and usually not too busy. Check out the little dirt road that circles the butte, it starts in the lower parking lot and usually has nice views of flowers and the mountain

My partner and I did a tour of Oregon vineyards with our pup, and we both agreed this place had the best atmosphere! The interior design and the decks and garden/lawn are all beautiful and peaceful. We enjoyed all the wines and the staff were super friendly and knowledgeable. Plus the alpacas are adorable!

Had a lovely tasting here on a very hot day. Our server was delightful and knowledgeable. All the wines were nicely made. The patio is a comfortable place to sit, even on a warm day. Highly recommend a visit here in the beautiful Hood River valley.

Such a delightful experience. Staff Tommy and Elaine were lovely and informative. The wine was tasty and the environment was perfection. Not pretentious, but elevated still. Having a glass of wine and playing bocce with alpacas in the background was kind of a spectacular day.

Wy’east Vineyards is a lovely spot to relax in Hood River. The atmosphere beautifully combines a laid-back vibe with thoughtful décor. It’s unpretentious, offering good energy and stunning views. Plus, the alpacas are sure to capture everyone’s attention. Their Pinot Gris is outstanding! It's crisp, balanced, and incredibly refreshing on a warm afternoon. If you’re in the area, it’s worth stopping by for a glass and a brief escape from the heat.

Wy’East Vineyards was on our list of places to visit and we are so glad we did! They have a fairly large indoor tasting room, but I can’t imagine it gets used that much due to the abundant, gorgeous seating that’s available outside. There are seating arrangements under a trellis of grapevines, seating nestled in the garden off the deck, and plenty of seating for couples or groups on the deck. It’s a very peaceful, chill place that had a variety of very tasty wines. We should know we tried 2 different flights. There’s a flower garden you can pick from, but this late in the season they were mostly picked over. Did I mentioned THEY HAVE ALPACAS?! Just a note: they generally don’t have food trucks during the week, mostly Fridays-Sundays. So call ahead.

This is a unique and charming winery. The setting is lovely with a gorgeous outdoor patio area. You can sit under a trellis covered in grapes. Stroll down to the pond and watch the Llamas grazing. Go indoor in the their tasting room for a flight of wine. There is a boules playing area. There are grapes growing nearby. There are even a couple Moai statues near the vines. The kids found the area fun to hang out in. The wine tasting can be done indoor or on the patio. The wine selection was quite good and the pour are generous. Price of a tasting was $20. Parking is free and there is lots of it. There is food available. We got the cheese and cracker platter which was very good.

The winery is my favorite winery period! The staff is so kind and so knowledgeable about the wine. It is a family owned winery that works hard to be approachable with great wine. Also the price of their wines and wine tasting is incomparable. It is dog friendly which is so great! So bring your own food or check out their new food cart addition. 1000% recommend a visit here.

OMG! So much fun! It was my first time horseback riding and I must say, it was quite simple, relaxing, fun, and invigorating! Clinton was the beautiful horse I rode. Laura and Emily were the guides for the day. Their warm personality made us feel right at home. Thanks for your wonderful customer service! I will for sure be back for the Cascade waterfalls trail.

My wife and I really enjoyed our horseback riding experience in Hood River. Somehow, Margo and her team were able to get us on a ride on the same day. Savannah was our guide and she did a great job. We had plenty of photo opportunities. Highly recommend. Don't forgot long pants, sunscreen, and a hat.

Margot and her crew are awesome! They have taken on a pair of mustangs we have rescued and are turning them into great saddle horses this summer!!! Thank you and the horses thank you!!

Have to admit I was a bit leery after my ride last year on Oregon coast. I had aweful service there and staff were so rude. This place was the complete opposite and I would highly recommend. I had such a nice ride here. All the girls were so friendly and made us feel very welcome there. Ride through the orchards was beautiful. Horses were beautiful, calm, well mannered and taken care of. Beautiful view of the mountains as well. Would highly recommend. I'd love to go back sometime and do some of the other rides which they said some are by waterfalls and some down to the river. Anyway , had great time. Thank you !! And hope to ride with you guys again sometime 😀🐎

We had a great time on our trail ride last weekend! Got lucky on weather - not too hot. Our six-year-old absolutely loved it. The stock were very well cared for and we had no issues at all. They took our picture for us in front of Mt. Hood. It's not easy finding available activities during the pandemic - I highly recommend scheduling a trail ride with these folks.

I took my husband on the horseback wine tasting for his birthday. I have never been on a horse before. Margo made it easy. My husband and I had an amazing experience with Margo. After the ride we helped brush the horses and put them out. It was such an amazing and relaxing time. Plan on doing it again.

Such an amazing experience!! I would recommend this to anyone wanting to see the Oregon scene

Our team of 16 had a wonderful evening at Phelps Creek Tasting Room. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, and the table decorations were simply sublime—elegant and thoughtfully arranged, adding a special touch to the night. The meal was delicious, beautifully presented, and paired perfectly with their excellent wines. Service was top notch—attentive, friendly, and seamless throughout. It was the ideal setting for a group gathering, and we left feeling relaxed and well taken care of. Highly recommend for any special occasion or team event.

This was such a delightful tasting room, as was our attendant today. She was very knowledgeable and helpful in finding a sweet wine for my friend. The Riesling dessert wine hit the mark! They also serve lunch of which we will have to give a try on our next visit. The outdoor space is very nice too.

Received a complimentary tasting card for two, with a value of 40$ (the cost of two tastings) while at a wine fest from one of their tasting room associates. When we walked in to the tasting room we were informed that “the way this works is it’s two free tastings if we buy two bottles of wine”. No fine print on the card stating this. To say this was extremely off putting is an understatement, considering that per their menu they waive the tasting fees with the purchase of two bottles. We came in to the tasting room with the intention of purchasing anyways but why give out the free tasting card if you don’t intend to honor it. The food was good. The second girl that helped us (Jenna) was wonderful, and the reason I have anything nice to say at all. The first woman, could use some training in the service industry. I wouldn’t return.

We enjoyed an educational experience that I purchased at a nonprofit auction. We were absolutely delighted with our experience and would recommend this winery even for a tasting. The staff is very knowledgeable, and we really enjoyed the wines that we tasted. It was a rainy day for us so we enjoyed the actual tasting room, but it looks like they have outdoor seating for different times of the year. Fun fact, one of their wines is on the menu at The French Laundry, which is a Michelin restaurant in California. So if your wine tasting in the Gorge, make sure to stop by.

Phelps Creek Tasting Room was the perfect place for my first tour and tasting. The wine is delicious and this place is amazing with their wine making process. They cater to other parts of the world that may have different trending styles of wine than what is drank in the US. The gal there was very welcoming. We began by exploring the beautiful and well kept grounds. After sometime exploring the grounds we made our way into the building which was a completely new level of impressive. Rustic wood finishes with metal accents that all get pulled together with the wine making experience. This is much more than good wine it's a great experience.

I went to Phelps Creek this past weekend and it was amazing! The atmosphere itself had a very cozy and homey feel to it. With Jazz music in the background, I really got to enjoy there selective wine tasting and delicious food. The staff them self were brilliant and knowledgeable of all the wines served. I for sure give them a 10 out of 10! Take it from a local of the gorge, you don’t want to miss out on this place if you enjoy tasting amazing wine at a reasonable price!

We enjoyed the picnic under oak trees in the middle of the vineyard. The wine was delicious and the food pairings hit the spot. The location is spectacular. The views and warm breeze were just perfect. This was the highlight of our wine week vacation. Highly recommend!

My daughter and I visited this winery recently and, overall, found the experience to be extremely underwhelming. We each ordered a wine flight to sample a range of their offerings, but unfortunately, none of the wines were enjoyable. They had a noticeably vinegary taste, which made us question their freshness — as if they had been opened and left out for too long. Hard to believe that this would even be the reason for the poor taste considering it's a winery who is pouring wines constantly. All 8 wines were undesirable. This was a disappointing start, especially for a place centered around wine. We also ordered a ham and pineapple pizza and asked for a simple modification: to place pineapple on only half the pizza, since my grandson didn’t want it on his side. The staff assured us this was no problem at all as the pizzas are made to order. However, what they didn’t mention was that this small change would come with a $5 upcharge. It wasn’t disclosed to us beforehand and only showed up on the bill at checkout. The lack of transparency was frustrating and felt a bit misleading. Additionally, the tasting experience was completely unguided. You are given 4 small carafes of wines and told to refer to the menu for tasting notes. We weren’t given any information about the wines, the vineyard, or their process. That absence of engagement made the experience feel impersonal and incomplete — more like a self-serve bar than a winery visit. While we were sitting out at a table on the lawn enjoying the relaxing view 3 boys came into the area kicking a ball around the tables hitting our table a few times and climbing on the rocks next to us. There is a sign saying to stay off the rocks. As we were driving away from the winery after our visit we noticed these 3 boys at the house next to the winery. We are guessing that these boys were the sons of the winery owners? Very unprofessional and disturbing to your guests to allow your children to play near your patrons. Overall, the visit lacked professionalism without thoughtful touches that make a wine tasting memorable. With better communication, fresher tasting wines, and a more welcoming, informative approach, this could have been a very different experience.

We came upon this winery just by searching. They had a band playing with blues, old country and other genres. The band was amazing, the wine was amazing. I was so pleasantly surprised to hear the amazing blues singer in the band and the bsas/

WARNING: DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME. TERRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE. If I could give them zero stars, I would. My then fiancé and I reached out to them interested in hosting our rehearsal dinner. After an initial good responses over email regarding cost, date, number of people, Shawn basically refused to respond to any of our 6+ phone calls and countless emails requesting a contract and answers to any of our questions. Because of the lack of response, we were forced to find another venue (luckily we were able to on short notice). We didn't bother to tell him that we were no longer having our event there, and the date came and passed and STILL NO RESPONSE. Unorganized, unresponsive, and careless.

Great wine, scenery, friendly service. Mountain view was blocked by the cherry orchard next doors crates but there still managed to be beautiful sweeping vistas. And the coup de gras, they are dog friendly! I will be going back.

Loved the Staff, very friendly and helpful. Great wines (we took a few bottles home) and good food! Beautiful views of the vineyard , Mt. Hood and the Hood River countryside! Very cool building, and outdoor seating is fantastic ! We will definitely be back!!❤🍷❤

Great wines, an excellent selection of varietals, fun blues vibe, as the owner is a musician. The wood fire pizza is exceptional and the servers are laid back and lovely.

James was a knowledgable and super helpful bar tender. The old fashioned where amazing, like none other. Very nice setting and scenery had a great adult outing. Highly recommend
