The Harris Fam

A spirited bunch that just does life better in the great outdoors!

Born and raised in Portland, we have a lifetime love affair with the Pacific Northwest. Our family enjoys the beauty and adventure it has to offer—skiing, hiking, backpacking, biking, climbing, kayaking, berry picking, brewing—aIl of it.

Our kids were in our packs scaling Skyline Trail at 3 months and on skis riding down Timberline at 3 years. A core memory - their whole bodies giggling in hysterical joy as they first experienced linking turns and crash landing in fresh powder. From that moment, we were all in. We set out to find a cabin in Mt. Hood National Forest to get out here often and build decades of memories together.

With a Meyers Briggs profile carrying the title of “The Caregiver” and a gung-ho outdoorsman, it was natural for us to find ways of sharing this special place with other families and couples who love to escape. Geeking out over all the details to enhance little moments and make your experience here full and memorable brings us total joy.

Mt. Hood Alpine Chalet is a dream for us, and we are beyond grateful to be able to share it with you.
