The Lodge At Suttle Lake Adventure Round 2

We just got back from The Lodge at Suttle Lake again! Let me tell you... I expected something a little different as far as the weather goes. It is after Spring Break! The wind was chilly and blew snow right at us from across the lake. You could see the 'white outs' from miles away. I didn't plan for a winter wonderland for the first week of April. We were trapped inside for the majority of our 2 night stay. It made for good conversation though! It also made time for bad 80's sci fi movies, and the first episode of Twin Peaks. We did check out some really beautiful neighborhoods in Sisters, Oregon, and grabbed coffee at Sisters Coffee Company! It is a must see in Sisters that I have never experienced before. We then went on a nature drive up to Three Creeks Sno-Park. It is an 11 mile drive up a rural road with only a few houses. At the top- It is at 5,200 feet in elevation- so we went in and out of snow and sunshine all the way up there. There were deer in the woods that we spotted on the way up there too! Inside the sweet town of Sisters there are neighborhood deer! Just like Cannon Beach, Oregon has wild rabbits all over town(youtube it). I love it! As for our cabin we were staying in- We were in "Cabin Fever". They also have the movie "Cabin Fever" as a free rental at the front desk. I am glad nobody decided on that one(haha). Cabin Fever was extremely similar to our last cabin except the giant 200 pound teddy bear we were very entertained by, and the cabin is probably 60 feet from the lake!

Check out our adventure!

I hope I have inspired you to get you and yours off your booties, and have some adventures! I also want to thank my mom for including us on the adventure, and doing most of the driving! <3

The Lodge At Suttle Lake Adventure!

Well friends, I just got back from a 3 day weekend! I can't express how much fun I had. I wanted to stay forever. I have never been anywhere in the snow like this. Never been in a cabin with snow all over the place, and a fireplace all cozied up. It was wonderful. We went to my favorite area of Oregon, and stayed in a cozy creekside cabin at The Lodge At Suttle Lake called Kokanee. I highly recommend staying there no matter the weather! We got up there towards the end of a nasty snow storm, and spent the next 3 days watching everything melt. We went to Sisters, Oregon and walked around looking at shops, and had lunch, and coffee. Went over to Camp Sherman, the fish hatchery, and then hiked to the head of the Metolius River(which was a new one for me). I have spent quite some time in this area, and the whole adventure felt brand new. I miss it there. I feel a connection to it, and it won't go away for some reason. It may be a sign that maybe someday I will live there. I can handle the snow, it's the wild fires that scare me. Anyways back to the adventure.. The Resort Lobby has a small bar for 4 people, which was perfect because they gave us drink tickets to use from 4:30-6pm. My dad, brother, Wayne and I hopped over there and clearly filled up the bar drinking free tasty beer, and hor devours. Since me and Wayne both work in the industry we taught some family members something- Tip your housekeeper, and your bartender-especially when it is free. So now all of you know. Me and Wayne watched the sun set on the beach, and we all went back and got warm by the indoor, and outdoor fireplaces. We ended both nights watching movies that we got from the front desk for free. As everything was coming to an end, none of us wanted to leave. There is so much we could still do! So we plan to come back next month, and in the summer! And since I am technically telling all of you you have to check out the resort for yourselves, You can also hop on over to their facebook page here-'like' their facebook page, and write on their wall that I (my facebook page) recommended you to it so we can both be entered to get a free stay! Also while you are at it 'like' Dream State's facebook page here.
