Hood River & The Gorge
Base Camp: Columbia Cliff Villas. And they are not kidding. Perched on the rim of the Columbia River Gorge, our condo/villa/hotel room has sweeping views of the river and a sky of endless blue. We'll be exploring Hood River for the next few days and relaxing in a suite that my entire first apartment could fit inside. With a dining table that seats 10, and sunsets that will knock you off your chair, this is a terrific gathering place to celebrate the achievements of the day with a glass of local wine. READ MORE
