Welcome to Bend

If you're craving a lifestyle where the great outdoors is your playground, and the town feels like a permanent retreat, Bend is calling your name. Nestled at the edge of the Cascade Mountains and hugged by the Deschutes River, Bend is a vibrant mountain city that blends natural beauty with a surprising level of sophistication. Here, you’re just as likely to spend your mornings fly fishing or hiking as you are sampling a craft beer flight or browsing high-end boutiques by afternoon.
 
Despite its outdoorsy reputation, Bend isn’t just for the rugged and adventurous—it’s also become a haven for luxury buyers who want the best of both worlds. Whether you’re drawn to the serenity of golf course communities, the walkability of the historic downtown, or the unbeatable access to skiing and trails, this peaceful, progressive city offers a lifestyle that’s both elevated and easygoing.
 

What to Love

  • Miles of scenic trails and riverfront views for hiking, biking, and paddling

  • World-class breweries and chef-driven restaurants around every corner

  • A strong sense of community with year-round festivals and events

  • A mix of modern mountain homes and luxury golf course estates

  • Easy access to Mt. Bachelor for premier skiing and snowboarding

Local Lifestyle

Living in Bend means never having to choose between luxury and lifestyle. Residents embrace a well-rounded routine, where days start with a morning run by the river or yoga in the park and wind down with a gourmet dinner or live music downtown. There’s a clear love for nature here, but it’s paired with an appreciation for craftsmanship—whether that’s in the local food scene, artisanal shops, or the architecture of newly built homes. It’s an active, community-oriented lifestyle with a touch of refined leisure, ideal for those who value both connection and calm.
 

Dining and Shopping

Bend is famously home to more breweries per capita than almost anywhere else in the country, and many are within walking distance of each other. Crux Fermentation Project and Deschutes Brewery are must-visits for both their innovative brews and buzzing atmospheres. But beyond the beer, Bend’s culinary scene shines with everything from wood-fired pizza and organic cafés to upscale dining with mountain views. Ariana Restaurant offers elegant Pacific Northwest cuisine in an intimate bungalow setting, while 900 Wall brings elevated New American fare to a charming downtown space.
 
Shopping in Bend is a treat for those who appreciate both rustic charm and modern luxury. The Old Mill District offers an open-air shopping experience with a mix of national retailers and local boutiques, all set along the scenic riverfront. Stroll through downtown, and you’ll find artisan jewelry, hand-crafted home goods, and high-end outdoor apparel—all curated with the city’s adventurous yet refined spirit in mind.
 
Locals also love the seasonal pop-ups and farmer's markets that take over the town square during warmer months. It’s not just about buying—it’s about connecting with local makers and savoring the community vibe. Whether you’re browsing for art, apparel, or small-batch spirits, shopping in Bend feels refreshingly personal and high-quality.
 

Things to Do and Entertainment

There’s never a dull moment in Bend, thanks to its year-round calendar of festivals and outdoor adventures. Summer brings concerts at the Les Schwab Amphitheater, riverside art festivals, and the beloved Bend Summer Festival, which blends music, food, and artisan vendors into a lively weekend celebration. In the winter, locals flock to Mt. Bachelor for powder-perfect skiing and snowboarding just a short drive from town.
 
For those seeking more relaxed entertainment, Bend delivers with wine tastings, gallery walks, and seasonal markets that bring the community together. The High Desert Museum offers an engaging glimpse into the region’s cultural and natural history, while the Tower Theatre downtown hosts live performances, film screenings, and guest speakers year-round. Whether you're a thrill-seeker or a culture lover, Bend offers experiences that speak to every pace and passion.
