Caldera Springs

Looking for a golf course challenge?  Hit the golf course at Meadows, acclaimed architect John Fought’s latest creation. The course offers tremendous variety within its 18 holes, seven of which border the meandering Sun River. Hit the trails.  Twin Lakes Loop is a 4.5-mile loop trail good for all skill levels. The trail is accessible year-round and offers stunning lake views with several activity options. Dogs are allowed, but must be kept on leash. See the stars and discover local flora and fauna.  A visit to Sunriver is not complete without a stop at Sunriver Nature Center & Observatory. Located next to Lake Aspen and nestled amongst wetlands, pine forests, and meadow habitats, SNCO is the place for discovery. There is so much to do, learn and discover here, but we recommend visiting the observatory after dark for awe-inspiring views of the night sky. Sunriver’s elevation, clear skies, and crisp air, make it the perfect spot for stargazing. Over a dozen telescopes are available for kids of all ages to enjoy the spectacular views of our universe.
