Welcome to Central Oregon’s High Desert!
Redmond is located in the heart of Oregon. We invite you to experience the beauty of this unspoiled high desert region. Sitting on the eastern side of Oregon’s Cascade Mountain Range, the climate is semi-arid with an average, annual precipitation of only 8.6 inches. There are four distinct seasons with refreshingly different weather patterns, and easy access to recreational opportunities beyond one’s imagination. The Redmond Airport offers daily flights to and from Portland, Seattle, LA, San Francisco, Denver, Salt Lake City and Phoenix!
Spend a Spring, Summer or Fall afternoon golfing on one of the thirty plus Central Oregon courses; take a hike or bike ride along one of the numerous Forest Service or State Park trails, kayak or canoe on one of over 150 high mountain lakes. With over 500 miles of rivers and streams, (most notably the Deschutes, Crooked and John Day Rivers) the fishing options are unlimited! Pick up the pace with a white water rafting trip, a climb up the famous Smith Rock or fast paced water sports on one of the many near-by reservoirs. There are also cave tours, museums, cattle drives, bird watching…the possibilities are endless!
The winter season brings snow to the Cascade Range and the panoramic views are breathtaking. You’ll find Oregon’s best down hill/cross country skiing and snow boarding here. A short drive will give you access to snowshoeing, dog sledding, snowmobiling and ice skating. Hunting opportunities also abound on the high dessert with a large variety of wildlife. You don’t want to miss a single season of this spectacular country and once you’ve seen them, you’ll never be able to leave!
If you are looking for an ideal place to live in the Central Oregon Area…look no further. Whether you prefer a weekend get away cabin tucked away in the woods or if you are yearning for a comfortable place you can call your own, Larry Turner Realty can help you realize your dream.
