We dropped by on a hot weekday afternoon and were so glad we did…read more The museum has a mix of indoor and outdoor exhibits - we saw them all but ultimately much preferred the indoor ones (both for summer heat and curation). Highlights included a very interesting retro 80s style exhibit on volcanoes that taught us a lot about the local geography. The kids also loved the beautifully done diorama'd historical rooms although more signage explaining some of thoughtful details would have been appreciated. The current art auction was also great to puruse, some beautiful and creative works there. We went to one talk at the amphitheatre that we found surprisingly dry. The otter exhibit was also fun to see as well as learning about the awesome lampreys. We stayed about 3.5 hours and probably could've lingered longer.

They also have an outdoor exhibit with live and items of the pass you will see along the way though out the area. They have places to sit and rest but the outdoor path can be a little steep in certain area, if you have a hard time walking, you might want to enjoy more time on the indoor exhibits. They have a restaurant and gift shop with area to sit if you need to rest. The restrooms are clean & well maintained and they even have handicapped restrooms. The parking is large and if someone has trouble walking you could drop them off in the front where they have benches they can wait until you get back from parking the car. Have much more pictures but only allowed so much you can put on.

I have had the pleasure of working with High Lakes Electric twice. Once last year to install a…read moreTesla gen3 wall charger and today to install a Tesla Universal charger to work with the original wall charger. This specific config isn't super common; power management group both wall chargers dynamically sharing the same 60 amp circuit. High Lakes Electric knew exactly what this setup was and quickly got me scheduled. Installation went very smoothly and both chargers worked as expected dynamically splitting the load across the 60 amp circuit. Eventually I plan on adding powershare once it becomes available in Bend, and I know who I will be contacting for the installation!

As Wine Club members, we've been visiting Stoller for years. I've been going to the Dayton location…read morefor about 20 years, so I was so thrilled when we moved to Bend to have an outpost of our favorite winery here. I recently hosted a baby "Sip & See" in the mezzanine at Stoller Wine Bar and it was exactly what we were hoping for. The space feels tucked away in the best way. It's private enough for a group, but still connected to the energy of the tasting room. Perfect for something celebratory but relaxed. The food and service were both excellent. The menu worked really well for a group setting, with a mix that felt thoughtful and easy for guests to enjoy throughout the event. Everything came out smoothly and was well paced, which made hosting feel effortless. It ended up being the ideal setting for a baby shower. Beautiful space, great food, and a team that made the whole experience easy.

We stayed here for two nights while my boyfriend attended a two day seminar at the conference…read morecenter here. The company hosting the seminar covered the cost of our room, so we did not pay for it. The property itself is large and sprawls on either side of the river. We stayed on the second level, with a balcony overlooking the river, which was really nice! The hotel is from the 1970's, but it seemed nicely maintained and the room was very clean. Amenities I appreciated were the dual bathroom vanities, comfy chair, refrigerator, and USB charging ports on the wall. The room itself was generously sized. The bathroom was very clean and the water pressure in the shower was fine (not terrible, but not amazing). One thing I really missed having in the room was a microwave to reheat leftovers or coffee...I was surprised by the absence of this common amenity. As stated earlier, we didn't pay for this room. I looked up pricing, and the base rate seemed relatively reasonable. However, they tack on a 19% "amenity fee" that raises the rate quite a bit, along with the usual transient taxes by state and local governments. Even though I found our stay here to be enjoyable, I don't think I'd pay the rate they're charging overall for that same room. Although the river view was nice, I think I'd skip it and save some money. If their rates are acceptable to you and you value a riverside view, it's absolutely a nice hotel to stay at. All of the staff we encountered were very kind, too. I can't really say anything negative about our experience here! I would have given it a five star review, but I find the final room rate to be too expensive and having a microwave would have been appreciated.

We came here hoping for some R&R. The description on Expedia…read moresays: "This property offers transfers from the airport (surcharges may apply)." Don't believe it. I contacted the hotel to make sure they would send a shuttle to pick us up at Redmond airport. The response back was: Thank you for your inquiry. We do not have airport transportation available this evening and would encourage utilizing ride share such as Uber or Lyft. - Kristen We arrived at 11:30pm at night and paid $70 for an uber to the lodge. Once there, the man at the main desk said that the first shuttle is at 10:30pm and is usually full because it's for airline stewards. Then he gave us a map and directions to go to our room, Room 4004 in building A. We walked to building A, didn't find out room, and then walked around for another 30 minutes at 1am exhausted. We finally determined there was no room number 4004. This was a farce. We walked back to the reception and he said that the system said there was a room 4004 but apparently there wasn't. He said the lodge was almost completely booked. Our options were a lackluster room with a view of a dirt hill down to the pool or a room with bunk beds. We chose the dirt hill. We will definitely never come back here and hopefully be able to find another hotel tomorrow.

Once we did, it was a cute little cubby down under another restaurant. It felt like going into a speakeasy. Kind of fun! We ordered the Ricotta & Romesco and the Burrata to share. The Ricotta was nothing yo write home about. Kind of plain with crusty baguette. However the shaved fennel was seasoned deliciously and I could've eaten a mountain of that. The Burrata was fantastic. Creamy, garlicky, the tomatoes were perfect and the arugula added a nice pepper to everything. We went to Cellar specifically because they had Mocktails on the menu and the one my friend wanted they didn't have the ingredients for. That was disappointing, but she ordered the Summertime and she said it was "nice", but "nothing special". I had a glass of La Griveliere and I would describe it the same way. Ha. Lastly, we ordered the Death by Chocolate and the Sticky Date Pudding. They were both dry and very blasé. Kind of a bummer way to end your meal. All and all, it was a cute little spot, but I don't know that I will return. To me, it was all to run of the mill for me to spend my money on.
