Why Midweek Vacations at Mt Hood are the Best
Posted by Tiffany Quillan | Thursday, January 7, 2021
Planning a vacation around a weekend feels like a no-brainer, especially if you have a Monday through Friday job with weekends off. Two free vacation days, right? While weekends at Mt Hood are wonderful, midweek vacations are the real hidden gem. This is especially true now while more people have the ability to work remotely, and while a lot of employers are offering more flexibility to move working hours around. Here are the top reasons you should consider a midweek vacation to a beautiful mountain town like Mt Hood.
#1 – Less Traffic Means More Vacation Time
Traffic can turn a 60 mile trip into a three plus hour drive. Make that round trip and you’re clocking six to eight hours for a quick getaway. At that rate you’ve already blown through two half days that you could’ve spent hiking, skiing or relaxing in the hot tub at your private vacation cabin. When you plan a midweek vacation to Mt Hood you’ll cut down on your driving time significantly, so you can spend more time vacationing and less time staring at the bumper in front of you.
#2 – Less People Means More Room to Explore

You’ll enjoy less crowds, more space and plenty of fresh mountain air – whether it be cross country skiing, snowshoeing, downhill skiing or hiking. You can take your time on trails and soak in the views. Enjoy a quieter experience and get more nature. You can’t beat midweek if you’re really looking to take a break and connect with nature. Get your socially distanced vacation right when you choose midweek at Mt Hood.
#3 – Less Visitors Means Your Choice of the Best Cabins
