The food in Sisters can be hit or miss, but Three Creeks is dependable pub food and a bustling little scene. Happy hour is between four and six (you may need to ask for the menu), and the clam chowder is divine!

Sightseeing
Smith Rock is one of the seven wonders of Oregon--for good reason. The view of the river meandering through the canyon is breathtaking and it offers world class climbing. If you're coming or going from Portland, it's an excellent stop, even if you only have a few minutes to take in the view. For those who have more time, there are various hiking routes. If you're there around sunset, you might even be lucky enough to see otters frolicking in the river!

If you stop and see the alpaca on your way though Terrebonne, your heart will gush over these goofy critters! It’s free to visit and you can purchase small bags of food to hand feed the alpacas in the gift shop. In spring, babies are everywhere and exude an extra layer of cuteness!
