My honey found the Tudor Inn on Airbnb and booked us the beautiful Crown Suite for two nights…read more (https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/4203538) It was considerably less expensive than if we had stayed at one of the hotels nearby. Upon booking, you are provided all the necessary details via e-mail, including parking information and the code for the front door. This is a self check-in sort of thing, which works for me. The owner is readily available, via text, although we didn't need to contact her because everything was just fine. The downstairs of the inn includes multiple sitting rooms and a fully equipped kitchen. We definitely took advantage of the fridge and freezer during our stay. There are three guest rooms upstairs. Two share a bathroom at the end of the hall and our room had a gorgeous private bath. There is also a private cottage in the back of the property. (I do recommend earplugs, if you are a light sleeper.) The Crown Suite has plenty of room, including a king size bed, sitting chair, built-in table and bench seats, and a large TV. The bathroom is separated by a large, sliding barn door. The bathroom was well stocked with towels, shampoo, conditioner, body wash, and a hair dryer. The clawfoot tub was especially enjoyable after a long day of hiking and beer drinking. The bed was quite comfortable. They don't provide breakfast on site, although an ample morning meal is provided at their sister inn, The Mill Inn, which is an easy 10-15 minute walk (or very short drive) from Tudor Inn. (I'll post a separate review of breakfast.) Tudor Inn is located in the heart of downtown with many breweries, restaurants, and shops, as well as Drake Park and Mirror Lake within walking distance. This was a great "home base" for our time in Bend and I would definitely enjoy staying here again!

If you are even thinking of visiting this town soon or for an upcoming event, you better not wait too long........ Michelle and Bruce have thought of everything that you might need and the modern mountain interiors are true to this beautiful little town....The morning breakfasts are a special treat and will keep you going most of the day with home baked goods by Michelle and wonderful breakfast cuisine. Last, but not least, they are the perfect host and have plenty of tips and recommendations if this is the first time to Sisters. This B&B is so warm, welcoming and beyond wonderfu!

Long Hollow Ranch provides a taste of the Old West and appeals to visitors fondly remembering those…read moreold John Wayne westerns and life on the range. The majority of their business is focused on guests who are staying at the ranch (many from overseas) who want to go on longer trail rides or an old fashioned cattle drive a la City Slickers. Since we already have a home in the area, we didn't get to take advantage of their hospitality as guests. However, we did visit to enjoy a trail ride. My boys love to ride, but it has been quite difficult finding a trail ride that satisfies all of our needs. We've tried Diane's Riding Place, but they tend to be more instructional. The stables at the Seventh Mountain Resort were only OK. My goal was to get more of an 'authentic' trail ride with a little bit of fun. We were only partially successful. First off, making reservations wasn't terribly easy. After calling the main business line, I was given a second number to dial for the stables. Since the focus is on their ranch guests, they don't seem to be overly eager to take outside riders. Fortunately, some of those guests had another activity planned, so we were able to arrange a ride. It turned out to be semi-private and Katie was a wonderful guide. You will sign a brief liability waiver, and riders must wear jeans and boots. The boots requirement was a first, but fortunately they have plenty to borrow at no charge. Children are also required to wear helmets. The ranch covers 600 acres, so they took a gentle ride up through the hills to enjoy the view of the Three Sisters. It was a good ride, but low on the excitement factor. No cantering or galloping, just an easy mosey up and back. Unlike the prior reviewer, the ride lasted exactly 60 minutes, so no complaints there. It is really disappointing that there aren't more horseback riding options in the area. These hills are filled with ranches, but due to liability concerns, very few open their doors to the public. We still feel like we are searching to find that magical ride. http://www.lhranch.com/index.php

We…read morewanted somewhere quiet to lay our heads down, somewhere 'different' than the normal hotel scene, and a place that our kids would remember. The Long Hollow Ranch checked every one of those boxes. We stayed in the Homestead cabin, which had three beds upstairs, and one downstairs. The cabin had two strong window AC units, which were wonderful. The cabin had no TV, which was great, but did have a vintage stove that served as a table top for the in-room microwave. There's also a mini-fridge and a Keurig Coffee Maker. Beds were comfy, bathroom has hot water in the shower, and the decor was fantastic. The morning breakfast was signaled by a good old-fashioned dinner bell at the main house, which is beautiful. There were lots of hash browns, fruit, juice and more. They even offered to cook each of us an egg to order, which our son took advantage of. The breakfast was absolutely great. All in all, this place was well worth the price, which was already much lower than other places on our trip. They even let us dabble with our fly pole in their bass pond free of charge. They accommodated our late check in (10 PM) and even had the AC going when we arrived. Customer service was top notch. This is the definition of a 5 STAR property.

Life slows down so much when you're at the ranch, and it's a perfect reset just being there. The breakfast is always wonderful, and fun having conversations with other travelers.
