Lodging
We were not able to reserve a room block due to the overwhelming amount of weddings occurring that weekend. Your best bet is to check out airbnb, Vrbo, or any other app we haven’t heard of.
Also, don’t pull an Amber and wait until the last minute because then you’ll be screwed.

Hit I-84E and drive until you see the sign for Hood River. This takes you right through the Columbia River Gorge. You’ll definitely want to stop along the way, hike, and check out the waterfalls. You wont regret it.

If you have the ability to extend your visit, this is where you should fly into. You’ll have to take the longer route but the Cascade Range is worth it. Visit Mt. Rainier, Snoqualmie Falls, Packwood or Leavenworth. Honestly close your eyes, point at the map and drive. Just make sure you check the local weather and park road closures. During that time of year, the mountains could have sweater weather or snow.
