Great walking trail and views of the river as well as Mt. Adams in certain spots.

There are also several fantastic small breweries and restaurants on the water front. pFriem, Solstice, Ferment and others!

For anyone looking for a cocktail Camp 1805 is your go to spot, and don't be afraid to check out the food trucks!

Great coffee, pastry's and breakfast sandwiches. This is the first place David ever got food at in Hood River.

Small brew pub with amazing wood fired pizza.

Where David and Loren got engaged! Great spot for sitting and watching the river especially at sunset.

Big appetite and hungry for breakfast? Bette's is our go to recommendation. Get there early on a weekend you will usually have to wait.

The Hood River Fruit Loop is 26 businesses that serve variety of wines, fruits, vegetables, flowers, ciders, and food. Each one is different and fun to check out. Beautiful views of Hood are guaranteed! Make it a one day thing or use it as a guide for places you must see!

A bakery that Loren and David lived on during the pandemic. They were the ones that always had flour, yeast, and all the baked goods you could want. You need to get some cookies!

David's favorite - Cookies, specifically chocolate chip and ginger molasses

Loren's favorite - Huckleberry cinnamon roll

*no views of hood, but drive

Hood River National Forrest is basically our backyard. There are so many hikes to go on, waterfalls to see, people skiing in May.

Tamanawas Falls, Lost Lake, Lookout Mountain are just a few of the great places to adventure.

Check out the historic Timberline Lodge , some of the out door scenes for the shining were filmed here.

If you are flying here and landing in Portland, Historic Columbia River Highway or Route 30 is a great way to jump right in!

This is an alternative route to the main interstate which will take you about half of the way towards Hood River. The drive is gorgeous and will feature several waterfalls. Set your GPS for the Vista House and stay on the old highway until it ends!
