About Sunriver
Sunriver is located in Central Oregon, two miles west of Highway 97 and 15 miles south of Bend.

It is bordered by the Deschutes River and is surrounded by National Forest Land. Sunriver is a planned community consisting of interrelated villages containing single and multi-family residential, resort, commercial and industrial properties.

Since our community is unincorporated, Deschutes County Planning Division handles all zoning issues. The Sunriver Owners Association oversees all development within Sunriver's planned community except for the privately owned Business Park. Sunriver maintains its own fire and police services on site.

Sunriver is a popular Northwest destination resort community with a vast array of year-round recreational opportunities including:
• 54 flags of award winning golf
• More than 30 miles of paved bike paths
• 31 outdoor tennis courts
• Horse stables
• Complete indoor racquet club
• Marina with canoe and kayak rentals
• Sunriver Nature Center and Observatory

You will also find over 50 unique restaurants and shops. all within walking distance.

Nearby popular attractions include fun and activities for the entire family, summer or winter. Drive the Cascade Lakes Highway with beautiful crystal clear lakes, streams and rivers to view. Enjoy some of the Northwest's best fly & rod fishing and campgrounds. Sunriver is surrounded by natural volcanic wonders found over 6,000 years ago, such as Lava Butte to the north and Newberry National Monument to the south.
Just outside Sunriver are the Lava Caves. which were formed as a result of the volcanic activity thousands of years ago. If you are a skier, you will enjoy cross country skiing in the woods or cross country and downhill skiing at Mt. Bachelor. The Northwest's premier recreational mountain has a diverse array of slopes for all skills level skiers and is located just 18 miles west of Sunriver.

Sunriver's 5,500-foot paved and lighted airstrip is one of the longest private airstrips in the West. It accommodates private planes of guests flying in for a brief visit or overnight stay and provides charter flights. In addition, you will find a shopping mall of numerous stores and boutiques, a post office, a state liquor store, restaurants, arts and crafts workshops, an elementary school, churches and the Sunriver Lodge.

The community now has approximately 2,899 homes and 900+ condominiums, with others in various stages of completion. Of the finished dwellings, many maybe rented for overnight or short periods of time.

Though now a settled community, the former hunter's and fishermen's paradise offers a temporary haven to migratory birds during their long journeys and provides a sojourn for deer and elk making their annual treks to and from the vast lower deserts and the rugged mountain wilds. It also plays host to otters, nesting swans and wood ducks, a few coyotes, ospreys and eagles. Sunriver remains an unenclosed sanctuary, where wildlife is left undisturbed to dwell in an atmosphere almost as hushed as nature intended only to be captured by the shutter of a photographer.
