This is our 3rd time at The Homestead. All our visits have been in the late fall or winter. We love the variety of activities available. During our stays we have done falconry, skeet shooting, outdoor rifle range, Cascades hike, self guided hike, history tour, movie night, outdoor swimming and a spa day. The kids love being able to swim outside when it is cold out. We we're hoping to check out the skiing this time however the weather didn't cooperate. This winter was too warm and wet for snow for the slopes. The slopes still haven't opened for the season. Even with our planned main activities (snow related) unavailable, we still found plenty to do. The staff have all been friendly and helpful. Please note that there is a lot of walking. The hotel is sprawling as it was built at different times and on the side of the mountain.
