Tips from the community

Combining all of these ingredients below (I’m pretty sure they have cheese) is Timberline Lodge near Mount Hood, about an hour and a half away from Portland. With day-trippers, people who like to spend a night away from their primary vacation spot will love this as an option. This National Historic Landmark is effectively a basecamp for nice dining, hiking, skiing, and pub visits. This lodge gets around two million visitors per year, and this doesn’t include all of the people who have seen it in Stanley Kubrick’s The Shining.

A luxury destination just an hour away from Portland that has decorated nightmares from around the world after its cameo in Stanley Kubrick’s “The Shining”. Epic chase scenes, hallucinations, and frightening happenings aside, this mountain lodge is an excellent vacation spot for outdoorsy adventurers and horror fanatics alike.

    Portland sits in the Pacific Northwest, but it also sits just a day trip away from some of the essential building blocks of being a human. And by that, I mean hiking, wine, and cheese. I love the cadence of downtown life and experience, but I understand time in a metro can generate an appetite for the slow and pleasant. That’s exactly the appetite the following places appease.
