Wine and Dine on Mt Hood

There’s lots to do during the day when you vacation on Mt Hood: hiking around Trillium Lake, watching your kids tear it up at snowboarding camp, golfing at the Resort at the Mountain, mountain-biking the Pioneer Bridle Trail, fishing the Salmon River and more. After a long and eventful day of playing outside, what better way to unwind than with a glass of wine or two? Whether you enjoy it along with a home-cooked meal at your Mt Hood Vacation Rental or head out to one of the area’s fantastic restaurants, this is your guide to where to find and enjoy great wines:

Where to Buy Wine at Mt Hood
The Villages of Mt Hood are only a one hour drive to Hood River wineries to the east and about 1 1/2 hours to the world-famous Willamette Valley wineries to the west making it easy to take a day trip and go wine tasting. Also, since we are in the epicenter of several great grape growing regions, our local stores have pretty amazing selections of wine too!
