  Fantastic time at a beautiful and well maintained historic lodge!

  What a fantastic place to enjoy! Spent 2 nights in a queen room with a view of the mountain top in Feb for my birthday. Room is historically furnished but beds have been updated and reasonable comfortable. The tap water comes from the mountain aquifer and is so pure they have it in a decanter for your enjoyment. All the food options at the lodge are wonderful! Blue Ox Bar has great pizza, Ram’s Head Bar has Mac N Cheese and an impressive salad. Cascade Dining Room has gourmet traditional breakfasts, as well as a complimentary continental breakfast for guests. Coffee and tea are also available in the first floor lobby from 6 to 9ish. The outdoor swimming pool is heated to a comfortable 90’, and the jacuzzi is as long as the pool! Towels are available poolside, and entry is gated by a daily code. Bring your own bathrobe (unless you are in a king room) as it gets chilly out there. Warm up in the dry/wet sauna afterwards! And don’t forget to track down the resident St Bernard’s, Bruno and Heidi, who can be found in various locations throughout the day! Can’t wait for our next visit!

  Mid experience

  I got chased by a guy with an axe. The experience was alright i guess. Note that they didn't have a working AC (not that you will need it).

  Mountain gem

  We traded a city stay in Portland for a winter New Years Eve getaway at Timberline, and the scenery did not disappoint. As East Coasters, we found the skiing superior to what we’re used to, though we spent more time enjoying the lodge atmosphere and the breathtaking elevation. The Highlights The Vibe: The rooms are nostalgic, clean, and cozy. Note that rooms and bathrooms are small, and the lodge gets incredibly quiet at night—bring a white noise machine for the creaky floors and doors (and the Poopouri spray if you are staying with your spouse, no exhaust!) Morning/Afternoon: The 2nd-floor fireplace lounge is perfect for morning coffee (free on tap) and a book. Later, the Rams Head bar offers great couch seating for drinks. Pizza: Don't miss the Blue Ox pizza shop on the main level- gives off speakeasy vibes. The atmosphere and pizza were highlights for us Weather Tip: If you get blue skies, drop everything, get outside and take photos. When the clouds/rain rolled in our last morning, the views vanished instantly. The "Meh" Breakfast: The free continental breakfast was underwhelming—mostly just cereal and bread. It was often picked over, and they frequently ran out of milk. They offer a menu items of course which were satisfactory (see next) Dining: While the pizza was great, our meals at Rams Head and Cascade were underwhelming compared to how they are marketed  NYE Experience: We skipped the pricey prix-fixe dinner they offered. They closed lodge at 4pm and the main lounge was transformed into a private wedding-style reception and felt like every guest was there (maybe locals?).  We asked if we could pay and join, but were told it was sold out. If you’re staying for a holiday, book the galas early or be prepared to feel a bit excluded.  Pro-Tips Public Access: Remember that the lodge is a public landmark; only the room hallways are truly private.  Arrival: Take a photo of your license plate before heading to the desk, they wll ask for it. The Drive: It’s a 5-mile climb from Government Camp. While the road was well-maintained, 4WD or chains are essential if it isn't clear and sunny like it was for us.

  Unique Place

  We drove up from Portland recently to this unique and historic site. Very scenic drive and we enjoyed our stay. Restaurants and service was all good. The free breakfast was only pastries, so easy to pass on that. Note, that the place is old so the rooms aren't exactly sound proof and parking can be tricky. Registration area was very helpful answering questions.
