Great RV property with convenient access to Mt. Hood activities
We visited Mt. Hood Village RV Resort this past weekend for a two day snow outing adventure and it was the perfect stay for our family in our RV. We started with night skiing at Mt. Hood Skibowl, and after finishing up about 10:30pm we headed a bit back down the mountain to Mt Hood Village. Despite the snowpack on the mountain, Mt Hood Village is just 20 min away, but several thousand feet lower in elevation, so there was no snow to fight with when we arrived.
It was late at 11pm, so what a great surprise to find a very helpful welcome with a gate attendant who had our information from our reservation printed and ready to go with a smile and good directions find our RV site. We pulled in and plugged in within 10 minutes and got the crew ready for sleeping. The site was level, had all the amenities for a full service hook up (although we had a full fresh water tank and relatively empty waste tanks so we didn't hook them up as I was too tired!).
In the morning I walked through the Resort to see all of the many amenities. We had stayed here once before in the summer when we visited the summer activities at Mt Hood Skibowl. The kids rode their bikes then and we enjoyed an active RV resort with many overnight visitors and a lot of regular long stay neighbors. Sites can be close together but the abundance of large trees and multiple sections of the park spreads out the large number of sites it offers for RV sites, and tiny home rentals.
Amenities are many (not all are open due to COVID) and we didn't have time to enjoy all of them, but they are here for your use. I would call ahead to see what is open if particular amenities are important to you (fitness gym, pool, etc. to see if they are currently available or not). There is a senior center for gathering, there is a mountain ski shuttle pick up for a ride to the slopes, also a fitness center, pool, playground, onsite convenience store, restaurant, clubhouse, etc.
We particularly appreciated how close it was located Mt Hood. After a solid night's rest we headed 30 min back up to the backside of the mountain to Bennett Pass. We worked on a snow fort a friend had started and had a great experience finishing out our 24 hour mountain adventure.
Mt Hood Village resort has hundreds of RV sites, tons of amenities, and is part of the Encore RV Resort/Thousand Trails network of properties. If you are headed to winter or summer activities at Mt Hood it is a great option for a stay that is close to the mountain, has access to all the amenities you could want, with personal service, all at a fair price. I highly recommend this property.
