Erik’s place was super clean and in a great location. It’s walkable to many great restaurants and shops in the neighborhood.
We had a chance to say hi to him and he told us the mountain views on the way to Timberline Lodge and around that area was amazing. It wasn’t on our itinerary initially but we were so happy that we changed the plan. We took a mountain route to Timberline Lodge, and drove to Hood River, then drove back to the city along Columbia River Gorge. You may want to take the opposite route if you plan to climb up to Angels Rest during summer so you can do trekking in the morning before the sun gets intense.
