Where to Stay Near Bend

A real estate broker’s take on favorite resorts

Nestled amid the natural beauty of Central Oregon, Bend serves as a gateway to an outdoor enthusiast's paradise. Beyond its picturesque landscapes and outdoor adventures, the region boasts a collection of exquisite resorts that cater to the needs of discerning travelers. This week we will explore four of the premier resorts near Bend: Sunriver, Tetherow, Brasada Ranch and Pronghorn. Each of these resorts offers a unique blend of luxury, natural surroundings and recreational opportunities. While I am in no way affiliated with any of these resorts, I have had the pleasure of visiting them all over the years and would happily recommend any of them depending on what you are hoping to experience on your vacation or staycation.
