We have lived in Bend for 10 years now and in that amount of time we have seen quite a bit of change. Particularly in the real estate market. We were fortunate that we did not buy during the rise. We know so many who are way upside down. That aside, it is an awesome place to live in…

Golfing at Black Butte Ranch has the best, close-up mountain views, too! And I’m the type of golfer who needs to find beauty in the surrounding nature because one wouldn’t find “beauty” in my golf swing…

Thanks for the props about Black Butte Ranch! we like it here too. While Summer is truly beautiful here, winter is magical as well. Hope to see you around the Ranch!

Yep, Bend has changed a lot since I was a kid. Would love to move there with my family and experience all it has to offer for long-term…working on it!

Will keep that burger joint in mind. We work up an appetite when we're in town.

Jen, we used to live in Sisters, just north and west of Bend. Loved the area! In the years we’ve been away, Bend has done a lot of growing up, adding restaurants and developing more of a “downtown”. (It used to be the only good place to eat downtown was the Deschutes Brewery and a little bistro called Cafe Rosemary–not even sure if that’s still there.) And at the end of a casual day I’d say visit a Bend icon, the Pilot Butte Drive-In just east of town…huge burgers and we always liked the turkey/bacon/avacodo club—and then you can take the easy hike up Pilot Butte and watch the sunset over Mt. Bachelor, the Three Sisters and the rest of the Cascade range. Mmm. Nice. —Tim

I grew up in the Willamette Valley and we often visited nearby Sunriver for either a summer or winter holiday. Now we're living in Southern California, but luckily, my cousin has moved to Bend, so we have a great excuse to visit.

EVERYONE loves the area, from my husband, to teen daughter, to my kindergartner. This last trip we brought our bikes and enjoyed riding around the Deschutes by the Old Mill District (the mac n' cheese at Flatbread Community Pizza was a huge hit, as wa the make your own pizza for the littler ones) and through downtown. With the Tumalo Creek running through it, covered bridges to cross, and a nice easy path to bike or walk, Shevlin Park was easily one of our favorite stops.

Bend's a great place to visit for active families.
