Who can name the location?

And if you don't mind many miles of dusty gravel road, 3 Creeks Lakes out of Sisters is worth the trip.

It's a great ride! If you take the left before you drop into the Three Creeks area, it's a rugged forest road and you'll end up just west of Bend, on the road to Tumalo Falls.

Mt. Washington.

Mt. Washington.

Ok, Mr. Local… what mountain is my bike on?

Ha!

Well, I think that's the view from the west...maybe Sand Mountain?

I think it was called Cache Mountain… it was a fun ride up, the trail spiraled around the hill.

These high prices aren't limited to Redmond. Anyone doing trip planning knows this is the new norm pretty much everywhere, unfortunately.

My youngest sister is staying with us for her 40th high school reunion and one of her friends is staying at the Quality Inn.
Her friend said the Quality Inn was $170 for Friday and Saturday. Not cheap for small town Creston Iowa.

Prineville Best Western Plus is a decent hotel where I've stayed numerous times and is reasonably priced. About 35 easy kilometers from the Rally site. Friendly staff, a bike-washing stall and cleaning rags make it two thumbs up. I've already booked there for the '24 Rally. On top of that, heading east from Prineville puts you on a decent road and access to some great Eastern Oregon riding.
If any of you characters to whom I owe beer for past advice are looking for a place to stay, its recommended. I'll make sure the beer is cold when you arrive.

Appreciate the suggestion, but I've made reservations in the BW in Redmond. I'm still hoping to meet up for that beer!

I think they may have a beer garden at the Rally. ]

I live in Central Oregon (La Pine OR) and super excited for the BMW National Rally to be in my backyard. As for the hotels/motels in the area, we get a lot of tourist here in the summer months so I'm not surprised to hear some of the motels being booked up already. In the neighboring towns of Prineville, Madras and La Pine they have a few motels that you might be able to get a room. Also, check out Oregon State Parks for camping, here in La Pine they have a super nice state park that have some cabins to rent, here the link to La Pine State Park; https://stateparks.oregon.gov/index.cfm?do=park.profile&parkId=32

The Hampton Inn close to the fairgrounds is the newest. About a year old. Restaurants right out the front door.

Their website show one room left (handicap) $600 a night for Thu, Fri and Sat nights.
Rooms are available earlier in the week for $238 with a senior discount.

When I booked in Prineville rates were way better

 

[jgoertz]

My rates at the Redmond BW are much lower than the Hampton! And that includes taxes and other fees!

That's frigging highway robbery. Four Seasons in Las Vegas for June 14th is $645. Hilton has to be one of the worst for price gouging, especially during disasters.
