MEGUMI CHALET

The town of Government Camp has a feeling of wilderness yet its proximity to Portland allows access to the amenities of a big city.   Close by dining facilities, all with a mountain theme, offer a variety of foods from burgers and pizza to delightful European cuisine.  Night life includes North America's largest night ski area and Cosmic Tubing open as late as 11 pm.  Several local shops offer ski gear, articles made by local artisans, Mt. Hood souvenirs, and a well equipped grocery market; Govy General Store.  Mt. Hood Brewery and other establishments offer local wines, ales and beers. Spending a few hours in the Museum and Cultural Center in Government Camp gives the visitor a great overview of the  history of the region.
