Yearning for trout-laden mountain lakes, cross country ski trails, golf course vistas of black basaltic volcanoes, and deep green forest trails for horseback riding, hiking and biking? Yearn no more. A Sunriver vacation in Central Oregon has it all. Plus be near spectacular Crater Lake National Park, fine dining in Bend, and a dozen Mt. Bachelor ski lifts used for training by the U.S. Olympic ski team. Enjoy downhill action, snowboarding, and cross country skiing. Oregon’s largest ski area, volcanic Mount Bachelor, is renowned for its heavy dry snowfalls and numerous chairlifts. Mount Bachelor’s super pipe and many jumps, jibs, rails and boxes are a freestyle skier’s and snowboarder’s dream. If you are a beginner, don’t sweat it, Sunshine Park is good for learning. There are also many miles of cross country skiing trails. For something different, try the dog-sledding.Looking for a golf challenge? Something even more challenging than choosing among the more than two dozen golf courses around Sunriver? Something worthy of endless bar and fireside stories? Sunriver Resort’s Crosswater Golf Club, surrounded by green coniferous forests and crossed by two rivers, will be a story to talk about for the rest of the year. Rated among the most difficult golf courses in the USA, Crosswater’s Endless Hole, a 687-yard bent grass par 5, is a PGA Tour challenge.Fly fish for large mouth bass. Cast your lure or dry fly, strip your streamer, and go out in your waders to land that extra large trout. The high desert lakes and rivers around Sunriver are home to a cornucopia of native redband trout and steelheads, as well as brook trout, brown trout, bull trout, lake trout and rainbow trout. Between the Sunriver Airport and the busy city of Bend, hike the High Desert Museum’s nature and river trails. Tour natural history and wildlife exhibits to educate the kids and the whole family. Visit Newberry National Volcanic Monument for a memorable experience inside an active volcano caldera filled with cinder cones, obsidian and basalt. Bring a jacket for the cold and rent a lantern to explore the cool Lava River Cave.

We came to watch the “Dog Can Pull” in the Village! What fun as dog of all sizes pulled respective sizes of “empty” beer cans (16 oz to Kegs)! Afterwards enjoyed strolling through the many shops and watching the ice skaters at the Ice Rink (turns into Miniature Golf during the warmer months)! We also saw several nice Restaurants and a Ice Cream parlor, so will definitely be back to check them out! Well worth your time!

I absolutely love Sunriver Books & Music. On a scale of 1-5, this store is a 100+. The owners Deon and Richard are absolutely amazing and their extensive knowledge and love of books makes shopping in their store a real treat. On countless occasions, Deon has spent time with me and my kids to learn what we like to read and sparked interest in new books with great recommendations. The store itself is very bright and inviting and has a great selection of books for all ages and interests. I have had the pleasure of attending several of their book club meetings recently, which are so well organized and provide a fantastic discussion of thoughtfully selected books. I highly recommend ordering books by calling the store or visiting the website when you are not in Sunriver. They make it easy and ship the books directly to our home in Portland. It makes me happy to be able to support this outstanding small business in person and from afar. There are many things I love about Sunriver, and Sunriver Books & Music is at the top of the list.
