Sisters
is a unique town, located in central Oregon at the edge of the high desert country, just east of the Cascade Mountains. Once a lumber town, Sisters is now the gateway to the Cascades and was voted as "one of the best eight vacation destination spots in the West" by Sunset Magazine. The beauty surrounding Sisters is what draws thousands each year to this area of towering pine forests, pristine rivers, lakes and streams and snow capped mountains. To understand how the town got its name, drive a mile west of town and look southwest and you'll see the looming, snow-capped volcanoes that were originally called Faith, Hope and Charity. The Three Sisters Wilderness area and the Deschutes National Forest offer more than 1.6 million acres of scenic drives, hiking trails, fly fishing for rainbow trout, white water rafting, horseback riding, biking and camping. Golfers will love the two 18-hole courses just west of Sisters that have spectacular views of the Cascade Mountains. The town of Sisters, with its wooden sidewalks and historic buildings gives it an Old West frontier flavor. It's well known to visitors for its' many specialty stores and art galleries. Sisters is also the site of the annual PRCA sanctioned Sisters Rodeo, and other special events such as the Sisters Folk Festival and the High Mountains Dixieland Jazz Festival. century Western feel of the town.
