Sunriver

Sunriver

Located just south of Bend is the residential destination resort, Sunriver. Home to full-time residents and short-term rental owners alike, Sunriver is not just a vacation destination. Its small community feel is what attracts residents, and why they stay here. Sunriver is made up of four different neighborhoods: Caldera Springs, Crosswater, Sunriver, and Vandevert Ranch so there’s plenty of options depending on what your living preferences may be. Pro tip: real estate owners can enjoy discounts on and access to most of Sunriver’s amenities!

Recreation activities are almost endless ranging from 40 miles of biking trails to kayak rentals to golf, swimming, and pickleball. The Sunriver Nature center is only accessible by the biking trails, and is home to owls and other birds of prey, and you may see an otter family playing around in the river. At night, enjoy the Oregon Observatory, sponsored by NASA, for out-of-this-world views. Should you choose to vacation here, the Sunriver resort has all kinds of housing options from hotel rooms to full cabins, all connected by the vast trail system running through the community.
