About Timberline Lodge

Timberline Lodge

Legendary. Awe-inspiring. Steeped in rich Pacific Northwest history and built by hand to withstand the ages. 

The lodge guest rooms reflect the era of handmade furnishings and hand-painted artwork. This isn't your average, run-of-the-mill ski lodge.

Built in 1936 and declared a National Historic Landmark in 1977, Timberline Lodge is one of Oregon’s most popular tourist attractions, drawing nearly two million visitors every year. Considered an architectural wonder, it’s still being used for its original intent—a magnificent ski lodge and mountain retreat for all to enjoy. 

Timberline is home to North America's longest ski season. In the height of winter, the ground floor of the lodge is typically fully buried in snow, with entry through a snow tunnel, or directly into the second floor. The lodge, combined with with its cozy rooms, pub, restaurant and resident St. Bernards (Bruno and Heidi), is a welcome relief after a full day on the slopes.

    Must see gem!

    Outstanding! Great historical lodge for history buffs and also a great place to stay. Make sure to check availability before coming. The restaurant staff was very prompt getting us a table with a great view of MT Hood from our table. The food was very good as well. Definitely a must see stop!

    Timberline Experience a GOOD ONE!

    What a wonderful experience! Reservation Manager, "Julie," helped us with a room at the Lodge for our last night in the Hood River area. Weather was a bit challenging while arriving in good shape. Room was spacious and wonderfully appointed. Clean and comfortable with service employees happy to help with any issues or questions. An early Fall storm left a dusting of snow and a glorious morning views of Mount's Hood, Jefferson and Sisters.

    Cozy and Comfortable!

    We had an excellent stay at the Timberline Lodge! The staff were so accommodating to all our needs. The room was so cozy and the pillows were super comfortable. The newer pool and hot tub areas are awesome! I highly recommend staying there! We also ate a wonderful meal at the Cascade Dining Room.

    Mount Hood Adventures

    We reserved the Timberline Lodge after reading it’s a National Historic Landmark on Mount Hood built by hand during the Great Depression. It is AMAZING! Features hand-carved wood, wrought iron, and stone masonry crafted by locals. The entire story has been preserved for you to see; learn; and experience. Prior to our stay the “Grasshopper Fire” broke in Oregon. The Hotel was close enough for us to get daily updates yet far enough to recommend we come. That alone was a life experience well handled by the hotel personnel. We had a very cozy King room facing Mount Hood. A beautiful view seeing it capped with snow in August! We had a wonderful dinner; eloquent presentation; seamless service into a multi-sensory journey. The craft cocktails were on point as well. This is a very special memory in Oregon! Be sure you reserve this one and if you ski even better!
