Bend, Oregon is a lively, outdoor‑first city on the Deschutes River that’s ideal for multi‑week stays — think world‑class mountain biking, alpine skiing at nearby Mt. Bachelor, river floats, and a buzzing downtown with breweries, cafes, restaurants and a growing arts scene to keep your free time active and social.
About 20 miles away Redmond offers a regional airport and expanded shopping/eating options, and the Sunriver resort area provides family‑friendly pools, golf and easy trail access, so you won’t feel isolated between shifts.
