Why Vacation at a Central Oregon Resort

Oregon resorts and lodges make ideal vacation destinations because of their natural scenic beauty, close proximity to outdoor adventures, and variety of amenities.

Unlike other parts of the state, Central Oregon resorts have the added benefit of clear, sunny weather most of the year. In other words, they can be enjoyed summer, spring, winter, or fall!

In Central Oregon, whether it’s near Bend, Redmond, or Sisters, you’re never far from mountains, rivers, and lakes.

Snow sports like skiing, snowboarding, sledding, and ice skating are popular activities in winter. Come summer, vacationers can enjoy biking, hiking, fishing, and water sports like kayaking, white water rafting, floating inner tubes down the river, SUPing, and more.

We have enjoyed many wonderful vacations in Central Oregon and have personally visited, if not stayed at, every one of the resorts covered in this post.
