We're a conference center in the Mt. Hood National Forest, just 53 miles east of Portland. The Little Zig Zag River flows through camp. Wherever you walk in camp, you'll hear its sound. The road into camp is plowed throughout the winter and the lodges are heated.
Facilities are available for rental except during camp, generally mid-June through mid-August. We serve breakfast, lunch and dinner, and provide comfortable meeting spaces with large stone fireplaces.
You can prepare your own meals in our lodge kitchens or we can provide family-style meals. Mid-week discounts on lodging are available.
