Bend, Oregon — Mt. Bachelor is expanding its hospitality offerings with the launch of a new hotel designed to combine outdoor adventure with the vibrant local culture of Bend.
Resort officials announced plans to take over operations of the former LOGE Bend property, rebranding it as Trailhead Lodge, a new lodging destination located roughly 20 minutes from the mountain.
A New Basecamp for Outdoor Enthusiasts
According to resort leadership, the new lodge represents a strategic move to enhance the overall guest experience while offering convenient accommodations for both visitors and staff.
Erin Bohon, director of resort services and lodging, said the project aligns with the brand’s vision of creating immersive mountain experiences.
The Trailhead Lodge is expected to open this summer and will feature around 70 rooms, along with year-round recreational activities aimed at outdoor enthusiasts and adventure seekers.
Blending Mountain Energy with Local Culture
The concept behind the lodge is to create a social hub that reflects the spirit of Central Oregon. Resort officials say the goal is to merge the high-energy atmosphere of mountain sports with the laid-back, community-driven vibe that Bend is known for.
With its location providing easy access to both the slopes and the city, the lodge is designed to serve as a “basecamp” for travelers looking to explore the region.
Local Reaction and Visitor Interest
Some local skiers have expressed interest in the new development, noting that additional gathering spaces near the mountain could enhance the overall experience.
While not everyone plans to stay overnight, many said they would visit the lodge for its social atmosphere, food, and amenities.
The new Trailhead Lodge is expected to attract both tourists and locals, offering a fresh destination for relaxation, dining, and connecting after a day on the mountain.
Expanding the Mt. Bachelor Experience
The addition of Trailhead Lodge marks a new chapter for Mt. Bachelor as it continues to grow beyond traditional skiing and snowboarding, focusing on year-round tourism and lifestyle experiences.
By combining lodging, recreation, and community-focused spaces, the resort aims to strengthen its position as a premier destination in the Pacific Northwest.
