Alvord Hot Springs Bath House & Campground

Tourist attraction

👍👍 We arrived just after closing, being chased by a blizzard. Although the office was closed, there was an after hours phone number posted, so we called and the owner answered. He said we were more than welcome to use the facility, and if we did want to camp overnight, we could settle up in the morning...

Kiger Gorge Overlook

Vista point

👍👍 Visited the Kiger Gorge Overlook Monday 8/10/2020. The overlook itself is not handicap accessible as it is at the end of a rocky path, parking area is gravel. Roads in this area are gravel and washboard. Would not recommend for young children as there are steep drop offs at the end. Beautiful area a...

The Narrows RV Park

RV park

👍👍 We stayed just one night here. At check-in, the woman behind the counter (Carol) was welcoming and fun. After commenting that we were likely going to be coming for dinner, she spoke very highly of Robert’s cooking. We did return and she was right. We had the fish and chips and they were excellent. T...

Pete French Round Barn State Heritage Site

Monument

👍👍 UNUSUAL! If you like to travel off the beaten road, this stop is for you. The round barn was built in the 1880’s and is the only one left. French designed it as an indoor, winter corral … ingenious! Cowboys trained the horses and mules to pull heavy heavy freight wagons. By going around the inside...

Hotel Diamond

Hotel

👍👍 An incredible find -- I cannot wait to make another visit. The hotel is warm and welcoming, the rooms clean and comfortable with great beds, and the food delicious. Do not miss out on dinner -- reserve your spot for that when you reserve your room. It was the best meal I have had in a long time.

Steens Summit Trailhead

Park

👍👍 Spectacular, trail on top of the world. This is a really great place for a walk. Almost don't want to tell people about it so it stays nice. Seems like so many places are getting ruined by MAGA moron, rednecks these days. Oh, ok. I changed my opinion of Steens Mountain. It's horrible! I'll never go...
