Sisters: Your Home (Away From Home) For The Holidays

Are you tired of a cliche Christmas? Spend the holidays in Sisters! Our area is made for memorable holiday trips – you can see new (and snowy) sights, enjoy some festive family fun, and make magical memories to carry you through the year. You may even make some new family traditions that make our area your new home for the holidays! 

Attend a Holiday Event

Nothing says ‘tis the season like a great holiday gathering, so share in some cheer with the Sisters community at one of our festive holiday events! If you’re staying in the heart of Sisters, it’s an easy walk to the annual holiday events that happen the weekend after Thanksgiving. First, stroll to Fir Street Park to feel merry and bright at the community Christmas Tree Lighting. On Saturday, head to Hood Avenue to take in the city’s Christmas Parade and visit with Santa himself! 

Find Your Family Tree

Instead of searching in a store, have a family scavenger hunt for your own festive Christmas tree! The Deschutes National Forest is brimming with beautiful trees that are yours for the cutting (with the right permit, of course). Finding and falling the perfect tree can be a fun family tradition.

Enjoy a Holiday Experience

Soak in some holiday spirit at one of our area’s seasonal experiences. Book a Family Carriage Ride at Black Butte Ranch to enjoy a festive, old-fashioned ride in an authentic horse-drawn carriage. If you prefer a faster exploration, make your way to Mt. Bachelor for a thrilling, tree-lined trip behind a professional dog sled team. 

Shred Some Snow

Make the most of our winter wonderland with some spectacular snow play. HooDoo Ski Resort offers a variety of ways to shred the slopes, from skiing to snowboarding to snow tubing and more. If you’re new to the sport, book a family lesson to learn from the best (and make some memories while you’re at it). You can also try cross-country skiing or snowshoeing to explore our snowy scenes at a slower pace!

Book a Home for the Holidays

A memorable holiday starts with a magical holiday home, and Sisters Vacation Rentals can help you find the perfect holiday property. If you’re traveling with children, Canyon Perch is a comfortable cabin with a spectacular outdoor setting for family snowball fights and Christmas Eve sky-searching. For large families with a love for luxury, D2 Estates is a holiday haven full of spacious suites, 10 private acres, and amazing amenities.
