With some awesome day trip options in the surrounding area, renting a car makes good sense. Without one, it’d be much more difficult to explore everything that Prineville, 30 miles away, has to offer. See the sights beginning with Ochoco Wayside State Park, Meadow Lakes Golf Course and A.R. Bowman Museum. Don’t forget about Terrebonne either! Just 30 miles away, Smith Rock State Park, Crooked River Ranch Golf Course and Crescent Moon Ranch are non-negotiable stops here.
