Beautiful house on top of the hill, love all the flowers along the way. On a sunny day, blue sky, green grass, colorful flowers - the view is just fabulous. Looking at the mountain and the city, probably one of the best places to visit in the area.The Christmas decorations are beautiful.

It's hard to believe I've never been here in all the years I've lived here! So glad I came when it was all decked out for Christmas!Note: park in the pull outs up the driveway for free and hike up the road a tad to avoid the city's parking meter and minimal parking. You must use their parking kitty app or their meter, which was not working when we were there. Parking tickets are sky high if they issue you one for not paying so word to the wise!They do have an elevator, clean bathrooms, a gift shop, and a wonderful view of the city!The 16,000 Sq ft French Renaissance style home is characterized by its impressive architecture and 23 art- and antique-filled rooms, where you can learn about the fascinating success story of early Portland moguls Henry and Georgiana Pittock, instrumental in the city's development.

Every year the whole Pittock mansion is decorated in a different holiday theme, and this year it was titled "Winter Wonderland". You can buy tickets online for a specific time frame for about $16 and some fees. The event is available to view through January 4th. This is a great way to grab the gal pals and get into the Christmas spirit. Put on your best holiday sweaters, hats, scarves, have some beverages, a little food and make it a day of celebrating friendship for the holidays. We had a great time. The mansion was absolutely beautiful. Some of the rooms were breathtaking and magical, while others were functional, but they all brought on the holiday spirit and the creativity of the artists and people who went through all the work to exhibit their magic. We are talking poinsettias, fir boughs, trees, lights and thousands of decorations. This is a tradition for us, and you should check it out because it may become a tradition for you as well.

One of the best views in Portland Oregon all for free. The views are treasures by many who live here for good reason, as the moment you see Mt. Hood and the rest of the city on a clear day your breath will be taken away and you'll gain an appreciation for the beauty of our city.One of my favorite spots to climb to by bike (very hard but fun!) and one of my favorite spots to enjoy thirty minutes of our beautiful city and nature.

It’s a cool place, and it would be an impressive restoration but the entire mansion is covered in tacky modern Christmas decorations, a lot of which block some of the coolest parts of the house. I don’t know what it’s like the rest of the year but definitely miss it during the Christmas season.

I have always wanted to visit Pittock Mansion, and finally, I had the opportunity during my daughter's 4th-grade class field trip. What an incredible experience! This place is a treasure trove of Portland history, and it left a lasting impression on both me and the young minds exploring it.Walking through the mansion was like stepping back in time, and the antique collections sparked the curiosity of the 4th-grade class. It's not just a building; it's a journey through the past, making history come alive for visitors of all ages.The grounds surrounding Pittock Mansion are nothing short of breathtaking. The lush greenery, the towering trees, and the panoramic views of the city and mountains create a serene atmosphere.The entire experience was enhanced by the friendly and welcoming staff, who added a personal touch to the tour. I highly recommend Pittock Mansion to anyone interested in Portland's rich history or simply seeking a beautiful and educational outing. It's a gem nestled in the heart of the city, offering a perfect blend of culture, nature, and captivating stories. Can't wait to visit again!

Outdoor review only: city view and fall colors are amazing! Trails to get there by walking/running or parking is available.

We enjoyed having a local museum with an interesting range of exhibits! There is a permanent collection of artists as well as a very intriguing display of natural history and cultural history.I would strongly recommend that you take a trip to this museum if you have not.

Really nice mansion with a lot of information on the origins of Portland and history of the city. The furniture is more representative of the period than actually from the mansion itself. Tickets can be purchased at the door, there was no wait on a Saturday. Museum is paid, although you can walk the grounds and go to the viewpoint for free.

Beautiful. The best views of Portland. We took the 20 bus from downtown Portland to the road entrance for the mansion, hiked up the road just over 1/2 mile (uphill, be prepared!), touted the mansion and grounds, walked to the entrance of the main trail leading to Washington park (Portland zoo, Japanese gardens, rose test gardens). It was an excellent hike through the rainforest, truly beautiful. We caught the free shuttle that runs through the park, saw the rose gardens and zoo, then it was a short walk to the entrance of the light rail yellow line back to Portland!

Views of downtown Portland are awesome from Pittock Mansion. There are no amenities here, so if you want a snack, bring your own. Found some of the staff pretty rude and clearly disinterested, not sure why they chose to work there. Not as large as I thought it would be. Not sure I would bother to make a return visit. Overall pretty blah despite all the hype.

I enjoyed the visit to Pittock Mansion. I was able to avail of the Cultural Passes through our local library and get two free adult tickets and one child ticket. I paid for one more adult ticket and it was an easy process on the website. The house is delightful and the views from there look to be beautiful. We visited on a very foggy/overcast day, so sadly did not have the greatest vista views, but I can see they would be great on a sunny day.

This place is so beautiful in and out. If you come here and don’t do the inside tour you’ll enjoy the surroundings just the same. The exterior and the landscaping not to mention the viewpoint of down town Portland are just amazing. There’s a trail as well if you want to go on a hike. There’s a gift shop and public restrooms. You’ll have to lay for parking and for the inside tour of the mansion. We enjoyed the tour and recommend doing it if your ever up here.
