Curator’s statement
If you are looking for a nice getaway from the hustle and bustle, Bend is the place to go. There are countless hikes available, great shopping, delicious food and plenty of interesting sites to check out in town or within a day’s drive. The Campfire Hotel is a personal favorite on snowy days thanks their heated pool and nightly bonfire.
