TETHEROW
Calling itself “the basecamp of Bend,” Tetherow stands at the edge of the Deschutes National Forest while still connected to the city’s heart; the resort is a twenty-minute drive from Mount Bachelor, and only seven minutes from Bend’s Old Mill District. Many visitors come for the 18-hole golf course but return for the dining options. The Row is Tetherows’s take on a casual pub that features more than forty beers to sip on including Scottish and American offerings. For a fancier event, head to Solomon’s. Guests will find locally curated meals made from seasonal offerings served in an upscale setting.
