Welcome to Mt. Hood Basecamp

Wow - do not pass up the opportunity to experience highland farms. Everything on this property is magical and you can tell how hard they’ve worked to make it as beautiful as it is. Interacting with the animals was easily our favorite part of the stay, but the cottage was also magical. Really wonderful place to immerse yourself in nature and relax. I can’t wait until we can stay here again!

Tucked away in the trees like a secret worth sharing, Highland Farms in Brightwood is exactly the kind of escape you didn’t know your soul was craving. The air- Crisp and pine-scented. The vibes?-Cozy, calm, and just rustic enough to make you forget WiFi exists (in the best way). But let’s talk about the real stars of the show: the Highland cows. Fluffy, chill, and photogenic as heck—these gentle beauties add the perfect dose of charm to your visit. Watching them graze like laid-back supermodels- Instant stress relief. We stayed in the cottage, and yes—you can see the cows right from the porch. It’s like a farm fairytale. Dante, deserves a shoutout too. His hospitality was top-tier, and the farm tour he gave us was both informative and heartwarming. You can tell he genuinely loves what he does, and it makes the whole experience even more special. Whether you’re here for a relaxing weekend, a breath of fresh air, or just a break from adulting, Highland Farms delivers 10/10.
