Great kayak trip and swimming. Must see, need at least 4 hours. Beautiful...

Clear Lake Resort, simple cabins, kayak & boat rentals

Thank God we live in this great country that has had the foresight to preserve and protect such a wonderful and scenic area.

This park is stunning. If you are thinking of going just stop. Go immediately and see it for yourself

Words cannot express the pure beauty of this place!

Absolutely beautiful.

Useless Service to the public. CLOSED on the weekend when the public need licenses for recreation! Being Open on weekdays is so myopic when the public is at work, or dealing with school pickups, shopping, etc. Obviously, staggering their shifts so as to cover weekend service is expecting too much of state / county employees paid for by Public taxes.

A really fun hike and beautiful scenary.

So beautiful and peaceful

So amazing! Strange coming out of a beautiful green forest with some snow patches & wild flowers & then nothing but tons & tons of volcanic rock. This must be what the moon looks like!

We hiked on Jack Creek to its beginning as water bubbling out of the ground. Beautiful creek, beginner level hike. Had a picnic lunch at Suttle Lake and swam in its surprisingly warm water. Wonderful places!!

Nice hiking areas for easy to moderate levels. Interesting terrain and a lava tube to walk in if you want. Fun.

More interested in limiting public use of the land than providing a service.any areas that we used to camp at or use for recreation have now been blocked off under the guise of safety or reclamation. The fact of the matter is, its just easier to keep the public out.

People around here really love there outdoors here and it shows. Lots of bike, horse, walking and even off road vehicle access. If your looking for bathrooms, showers, etc stick to a camp ground. Also remember, theres lots of private property scattered throughout.

The food was unbelievable. I knew they brewed great beer...but good food to boot...what could be better? Very nice place for a meal and a few brews that are not being bottled.

I really wish Washington State could get there parks in shape like Oregon. We have way too many liberals closing down our roads and giving us nothing to do to relax and have fun in Washington State period in Oregon however the parks are well groomed well-maintained and people welcome you to be out in the woods and enjoy yourself. Bravo Oregon

Great place to find out about the area. There is a ranger presentation that educates you about the significance of the area. The ranger will give you first hand facts and knowledge of the area.

Lots of hiking and amazing mountain biking opportunities. Once you find the new office, lots of info and trail maps to get you out and about. They are doing great work on this Forest to get wood to the mills, and working with the community.

Excellent access to beautiful scenery. Kid friendly. Well maintained and clearly marked trails. Beautiful stuff right here!

The Ranger went out of his way to make us feel safe when we were broke down . he sent people to come check on us brought water and granola bars. he came back after a wedding to check on us after midnight to make sure we got a tow to our location.

The views of all the mountains is amazing

Ive been here a number of times as my family has grown up. The park is beautiful and never looks the same twice. There are so many aspects that it will take me at least a half dozen more visits before I feel like I really know the place. My kids are grown now and still love it. Memories were made here. Good ones. The kind you remember fondly when getting together with family.

Its a great placeTo get away from everyone

Great forest managed mostly for recreation and wilderness. Roads are rough and need maintenance which most likely wont happen anytime soon. A fair amount of people at campsites.

We camp last week my family off-road 42 National Forest and 4280 area that I think is the backside of wickiup reservoir and we really love it and enjoy it. it is also a great place for large families for kayaking, fishing or just relaxing on a hammock.

Any NF in Oregon is a 5 star. Spend a few hours on a clear day and you should feel the same.

They force us to pay to go into OUR national forests. We own OUR national forests. Yes, We The People own all national forests not the feds....

We hike in the national forest often and always enjoy it. Its clean and the rivers offer a cool break from the high desert.

Had a lovely time exploring, but i was disappointed that the path felt more like a road.

Great stopping off point! Get info, reccomendations, permits and directions before heading up into the cascades. Staff was friendly and helpful. In and out in a matter of minutes.

Beautiful sights but ordinary and somewhat outdates facilities hold the beauty of this location back. Still beautiful regardless and worth the visit

Hey... its beautiful outside. Now pay for it. I really abhor the fees I have to pay on top of taxes in order to enjoy the Great Outdoors

Whats not to like about the Deschutes National Forest. Some say theres too many people out there, I say thats not such a bad thing because I just have to outrun them if theres a bear or a cougar.

Stunningly beautiful part of the country with towering pines and roads twisting in, around, up, and down awesome mountains. Loved every second!

Beautiful, clean water. Stunning views, friendly camp hosts. Clean parks, beautiful drive.

Awesome view. A must see when the weather is favorable.

I came early in the morning to take photos of the Sisters mountain range. At 5:30 a.m. its a breathtaking View and there are no Chinese tourists.

Beautigul beyond words!! I started camping in the Rockies before I could walk well over 60 years ago so I feel at home in the outdoors. If I could live there I would.

Beautiful spot to picnic, have gatherings, go swimming etc. One of my favorite spots to feed ducks, geese & swans

I grew up all over those woods love to go back and run arround

Amazing, great Forest Service staff. They clearly love there jobs and take great care of this national treasure!

Beautiful forest but horrible rangers and managment. Power tripping jerks that close more and more trails to ohv use every year. Dont stop to talk to them, theyll find something to pick you apart for. They are there to make your day worse.

Great place love it here perfect weather 300 days of sun where else can you ask for?

This place is beautiful. Loved seeing all the geenery again!

Super friendly staff and they know Thier stuff. Did you know mushroom hunting permits are free? ;)

Lots of hikes, waterfalls, bike trails, beautiful area to spend time being outdoors with the family.

Beautiful location, had a great picnic out there.

Great forests and wildlife. The stars are beautiful at night.

Dechutes National Forest offers unmatched recreational variety....public downhill and cross-country ski areas, snowmobile and snow shoe areas with warming huts, an extensive system of mountain biking trails, excellent white water runs, over 150 lakes for canoeing and fishing and fantastic wilderness areas...even th Newberry Volcanic National Monument! Only negative is the required Northwest Forest Pass which was supposed to be temporary, over a decade ago.

So beautiful, and well maintained. The close proximity to bend makes it an easy trip out for the weekend.

Tumalo Falls is a must see in Bend!

Nice park area surrounding it. I go to dog park nearby and walk my pups around the river

I travelled through via Amtrak. It provided beautiful scenery as we passed by.

Good place to walk though can look very dry.

Really pretty park. Lots of good hiking

Dont miss seeing Lake Paulina and East Lake. The road is rough but the lake views are well worth the short bumpy drive. Very nice facilities and helpful staff.

Great place for hiking, camping, and all things nature!

Ranger on duty was extremely helpful looking for maps and answering questions.

Very quiet and relaxing. Not as green as i like but still nice

This is place is really special. I enjoyed it a bunch.

Large areas, huge grassy area, groomed trails. Great social dog play!

Beautiful, scenic drive from Crater Lake back to Portland.

Probably the first and last good Vacation I have had

First time in Oregon and Im so in love already!

Wander around the lake boat across it. A peaceful and great place to visit.

Always a beautiful view driving through here

Beautiful Area! A must see, if your in this neck of the woods :)

Winter or summer, it is always a beautiful place to camp, hike, or just drive through.

Very pleasant to drive through; plains, forests, mountains, and canyons galore.

Great place to hike, fish, back. Great lakes, rivers, and hiking trails

Fresh air, clean water. Adventure awaits for various abilities & ages!

Very calm and beautiful. Nice swimming.

Always a good choice

Great staff, super helpful, they are doing it right here!

Very helpful with local conditions and hiking areas

Beautiful! So much to offer and all in close proximity to beautiful Bend.

Beautiful and lovely cant wait to go back

Some of the best hikes out there!

Beautiful trails, well kept and easy to follow

De owner ys bery bery cool

Beautiful forests, with amazing water ways, please pick your trash up.....

Just an abundance of wildlife , natural beauty , and Peaceful times :)

Overrated, over ran, dirty, Dusty. I would suggest the Mt Hood wilderness area, more scenic, clean & not as many people.

Always beautiful country, relaxing or busy, my choice.

Best service of any federal or state agency. Sisters Ranger Station personnel has any information you may look for.

Beautiful area of oregon. A must see.

Needed some time in the woods... awesome!

Beautiful weather and scenery
