A rare Cooper Spur chalet on Mount Hood — measured in seasons, not square feet.
The one thing that cannot be replicated
You cannot build another one. That is the whole point.
Surrounded by national forest and held under forest zoning, this pocket of Cooper Spur permits no new lots and no new construction. The privacy here isn't a feature a developer can add later — it's a condition of the land itself. Homes in this area reach the market rarely, and this is among the finest of them.
The result is a property whose value rests on something durable: a finite, wooded parcel at altitude, with framed views of Mount Hood's summit and a forested canyon falling away below. The kind of place a family keeps — and is kept by — for a generation.
A January 2026 appraisal set value at $1,500,000. The retreat is offered at $1,475,000 — deliberately below appraisal, to move it into the right family's hands this season rather than wait out a slow market.
Inside the chalet
A multi-level cedar chalet built for gathering, glass, and firelight.
Vaulted, open-beam ceilings open the great room to walls of glass that pull the forest and the mountain indoors. Two stone fireplaces anchor the home across its levels — the woodsmoke-and-cedar center of gravity on a winter evening. A primary suite with a claw-foot tub sits above it all.
Offered fully furnished and turnkey: the retreat is ready to be used the weekend it changes hands, not the season after.
Ten minutes to Cooper Spur, twenty to Mt. Hood Meadows. Snowy holidays, woodsmoke, and a full house.
The Tilly Jane Trail and the alpine wake up; Hood River Valley orchards come into bloom below.
Cool forest mornings at altitude, and the Columbia Gorge — wind, river, breweries, wineries — a short drive north.
Larch turning gold, harvest in the valley, and Thanksgiving weekends the whole family drives up for.

The setting
Alpine solitude, ten minutes from the lifts.
The retreat sits high on Cooper Spur Road, perched above a forested canyon with framed views of Mount Hood's crown. It is genuinely secluded — hundreds of mature trees, a quiet road with little traffic — yet close to everything the mountain and the valley offer.
Skiing at Cooper Spur and Mt. Hood Meadows, the Tilly Jane Trail and the alpine at the door, the orchards and town of Hood River below, and the Columbia River Gorge a short drive north.
