8. 5エーカーホイッカスクリーク。 町から2マイル未満のプライベートかつ隔離されたまだ

In the mid-1970s, a group of 10 families purchased approximately 25 acres about two miles outside downtown Sisters, with the vision of creating a truly special environment. Lot sizes ranged from 2 to 10 acres, nestled in and around Squaw Creek—now known as Whychus Creek.

Originally built as a single-family residence on 8.5 acres, surrounded by towering ponderosa pines and aspen trees, the home served as a primary residence. By the late 1980s and early 1990s, it was sold to an Australian entrepreneur who fell in love with the region. Seeing the property’s potential as a bed-and-breakfast, he converted it into an 8-bedroom, 6-bath B&B and named it the Australian Outback.

The venture was short-lived, lasting less than five years, before the proprietor returned to Australia. In 1996, a couple from Bend purchased the property, continuing its life as a B&B and renaming it Aspen Meadow Lodge. For the next decade, it served loyal and consistent clientele who appreciated its charm and tranquility.

By 2005, after one of the owners passed away, the surviving spouse found the operation too much to manage alone and decided to sell. We purchased the property in January 2006, returning it to a single-family home and, eventually, a vacation rental for new and returning guests to enjoy.

Past stories and memories live on, captured in the two signs that remain with the property today—a small but meaningful reminder of its rich history.

WHERE TRANQUILITY MEETS ADVENTURE — THE PERFECT BLEND OF PRIVACY & CONVENIENCE

Nestled on 8.5 acres of rolling land, Aspen Meadow Lodge is a one-of-a-kind retreat where nature and comfort come together. Surrounded by groves of aspen trees and towering ponderosa pines, with breathtaking views of North Sister, the lodge offers serene privacy while remaining less than two miles from downtown Sisters.

The property’s charm lies in its combination of peaceful seclusion and endless opportunities for relaxation and recreation. In the fall, winter, and early spring, gather around the outdoor firepit to cozy up under the stars. In the summer, unwind in the backyard hammocks or down by Whychus Creek. With advance notice in July and August, we can provide specially designed in-creek seating for the ultimate “Happy Hour” experience — dip your feet in the cool water while enjoying the scenery.

Take advantage of private access to Whychus Creek, challenge friends or family on the Pickleball court installed in 2022, or relax in the new six-person hot tub added in fall 2025. For a uniquely Oregon touch, the seasonal outdoor shower wraps around one of the majestic ponderosas on the back deck.

Aspen Meadow Lodge comfortably hosts up to two families or four couples, offering spaces to relax, play, and connect. Whether you seek quiet reflection, outdoor adventure, or memorable gatherings, this property delivers an experience unlike any other in Sisters. Here, you don’t have to choose between tranquility and adventure — you can have both.
