We are Oregon residents who love the outdoors, be it the mountains, rivers or coastal areas. We love to travel the world and have fell in love with Bend, which reminds us of time we spent in Taos, New Mexico. The high desert sun, smell of the sage and pine, the Deschutes River, surrounding lakes, and mountains all make Bend a wonderful place to get outdoors. Though we have to admit, the many good restaurants and breweries have us staying close to our home-away-from-home for an easy walk to dinner or a drink with friends.
Our children love being close to the park, Goodie's (ice cream parlor), Cravin's Candy Emporium and a short walk to home after a float down the river.
We hope you will enjoy Bend and the surrounding area as much as we do.
Cheers! - Lesley & Daniel, Portland, OR
