About this property

LARGE WATERFRONT HOME ON 8.5 ACRES-MOUNTAIN VIEWS & PRIVATE PICKLEBALL COURT!

Welcome to Aspen Meadow Lodge!

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed.

Enjoy the peace and quiet of this private 8.5 acre property that is less than two miles from downtown Sisters. Our 4 bedroom 3.5 bath 3200 square foot home can accommodate up to 2 families very comfortably. Maximum nightly occupancy is 8-10 people.

Located on Whychus Creek, you can walk out from the back deck and down the meandering path to enjoy 1500 feet of private creek frontage. If you like to fish, bring your 3 wt rod as fishing can be outstanding during the summer months (Oregon fishing license is required).

In the fall and winter seasons, we stock the house with ample amount of firewood for the main floor fireplace while the downstairs gas fireplace operates via a remote. Snow falls on a regular basis from mid December through Mid February at Aspen Meadow Lodge which makes for a magical wintertime setting.

One of our latest additions in 2022 is a private pickleball court located behind the barn and surrounded by aspens and ponderosas. If you play, make sure you bring your gear.

There are 3 bedrooms on the main floor: 2 of the bedrooms have queen size beds and a shared full bathroom. The master bedroom has a king bed, a full private bath with dual sinks, and direct outside access to the 4 person hot tub. The 4th bedroom is on the lower level, adjacent to the family room. It also has a queen size bed with a full private bath and direct outside access.

The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you need to cook all your meals, and a dishwasher to help make clean-up easy. The dining room can seat 8 comfortably but does expand with an extra leaf in the entry way closet for additional dinner guests.

The large back deck is perfect for entertaining company with seating for 8 (summer and fall only). Watch the deer wander through the yard, or enjoy the mountain view's from this location.

There is a large gas grill that is big enough to BBQ 2 large rack of ribs, 6 burgers and 8 bratwurst all at once (trust us, we did that!) Spare propane is in the garage in the unlikely event you run out of gas.

This year round destination offers close proximity to world class fishing on the Deschutes & Metolius Rivers, skiing at nearby Hoodoo Ski Area (25 minutes) & Mt. Bachelor (50 minutes), golf at Aspen Lakes & Black Butte golf courses, and a vast network of hiking and biking trails on Peterson Ridge. Drive up to Three Creeks Lake (25 minute drive) for a spectacular day trip, and hike up to Tam McArthur Rim for a breathtaking view!
IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR 2022
The newly installed Pickleball court is located behind the barn and surrounded by Aspen & Ponderosa trees, this is a wonderful setting for all those pickleball enthusiasts. This is a private court and is only available for our guests at Aspen Meadow Lodge. Paddles and balls are not provided at this time.

Since we are the only vacation rental in the neighborhood, the full time residents are particularly concerned about large gatherings that exceed the maximum allowable guests (8). Many of them walk by the house on a daily basis to get their mail, walk their dog, etc. and notify us if there are large gatherings right away. That said, Aspen Meadow Lodge is not available for weddings, rehearsal dinners, large family reunions or other large gatherings. Any violations of these rules are subject to a 5000.00 fine per HOA rules. We apologize for any inconvenience.

Overall a good stay with few issues

Lovely property & house in beautiful area. Great split-level living spaces with spacious kitchen for our 2 families with kids to enjoy. Only issues were dirty dishes in the dishwasher upon arrival, along with unknown sticky spots on floor we had to clean up. Blackened pancakes were also left in the oven (turned off) which gave an unexpected odor to our arrival. Once there we found the hot tub had a green tint but couldn't locate any chemicals to treat. Messaged with host, who responded quickly that a hot tub specialist would come check it out but didn't hear anything after that so we ended up not using the hot tub at all. Overall minor setbacks to a fun family weekend.

Amazing Family Getaway

This home has so many things that make it a great place for a family vacation ... just 5 minutes from town of Sisters, but a large quiet private property with grass, meadows, trees, a small river, a variety of lovely outdoor seating spots, a beautiful lighted pickleball court (we played morning and night). Deer wander by (and an occasional peacock!), eagles & hawks fly overhead. House also has table tennis, fussball, bocce ball, croquet, lots of board and card games, great hanging out spaces indoors, large well stocked kitchen. We were very impressed and will come again! AC works great but it's a bit too cold downstairs ... ample blankets are provided.

Something for everyone...

The check-in was seamless and everything was ready for us upon arrival. The set up of the house is great for a family who have different sleep schedules or interests. Not only was it so close to the creek, but there is a lovely (and lighted path) that loops down to the creek and back. We had lots of fun playing pickle ball, horseshoes and games (of which there are many in/with the house). Of all the places we have rented before, this property had the best beds!! We slept great here. All around, cooking, hanging out, playing games, watching movies, was so comfortable and relaxing. The proximity to the downtown Sisters thoroughfare was wonderful - shopping, dining, hiking and more. We will be staying her again, no doubt. Love love loved it. Thank you.

Magical long weekend

Beautiful house on magical land.. we saw an abundance of wildlife in the backyard and along the creek. Nice spot to cool your feet off. We ended up putting our pop up tent over the picnic table because it was hot. We couldn't eat breakfast in the kitchen because there were (no exaggeration) nearly 30 flies on the window over the corner dining area our first morning but we did spend some time opening the screens to get most of them out.

Spacious creekside gem!

Beautiful home on gorgeous grounds just outside of town. There was plenty of space for everyone in our group of 8. Between the private pickleball court, ping pong table, cornhole, bocce and croquet, we were never bored… and we whiled away many an hour in the chairs by the creek and swinging in the hammock! The home was well- stocked, spotlessly clean and in great condition. The owners were quick to respond and friendly when we had a question. We will definitely be back!!

Very nice property. Large enough for 8 very comfortably. Great pickle ball court, but unfortunately the weather did not cooperate. Hot tub was ver nice, but a little small. Three at most at any one time. We would rent it again.

Wonderful Property

This property was perfect for our family Christmas celebration. The house is bigger than it looks in the photos with so much space for our group of 7. The kitchen was very well stocked with everything we needed for cooking our holiday meals. The weather did not cooperate as we hoped to ski, however, the house was so comfortable with the fireplaces, hot tub, foosball table, etc. that we were content just hanging out at the house and enjoying each other. The property is spacious and beautiful and we all enjoyed walking to the river daily. We would love to return in the summer or fall and be able to make use of the outdoor areas and Pickleball court.

My mountain biking buddies and I just had our 3rd annual stay at this great house on Whychus Creek - after hitting the trails all day we love to come home to the various on-property activities (pickleball, cornhole, horseshoes, ping pong, foosball, etc.), the fully-stocked kitchen, hot tub... it's also a great spot to relax and retreat. We're looking forward to another stay next year!

Heaven on Earth

It’s hard to explain the uniquely wonderful experience of staying at Aspen Meadow Lodge. Because it is set on 8.5 acres with walking paths, AND- on a lovely creek, you feel like you are way out in the Ponderosa Pine forest - but in fact you are only 5 minutes from Downtown Sisters. We especially enjoy all the different spaces, outside and in, that are so great for a larger family group. The Pickle Ball court is amazing and so fun for all ages. This is one fabulous place to stay!

Incredible escape

We eloped in sisters and then stay at this house with a few family members! It was absolutely incredible! The house is clean and roomy and the outside space in spectacular. We spent our mornings drinking coffee on the wrap around porch and down by the creek! The evenings we brought out the yard games and bbq and enjoyed the amazing weather together. ❤️ The neighbors are so sweet and it’s the perfect distance away from the bustle of the little town! Can’t wait to come back for anniversaries in the years to come!

About the host

Hosted by Chris Crever

Host profile image
My wife and I live in Portland, OR and are avid outdoor enthusiasts. We have 2 boys who are now in their mid 20's and our 13 year old English Lab that round out our family. We try and spend our free time down in Sisters when time permits and welcome the opportunity to share Aspen Meadow Lodge with new and returning guests.

Why they chose this property

In the mid-1970s a group of 10 families purchased approximately 25 acres about 2 miles outside of downtown Sisters. Their intent was to create a very special environment, where lot size ranged between 2- 10 acres, 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 was used as a primary residence. By the late 80’s and early 90’s it was sold to an Australian entrepreneur who fell in love with the region. He felt the property and the house would be a great opportunity to run a bed-and-breakfast, so he converted the house to an 8 bed/6 bath B&B and promptly called it the Australian Outback.

It was a short-lived venture that lasted less than five years before the proprietor moved back to Australia, and sold it to a couple from Bend in 1996, who kept it as a B&B and changed the name to Aspen Meadow Lodge.

It remained a bed-and-breakfast for an additional 10 years and had a very loyal and consistent clientele. By 2005, one of the owners of Aspen Meadow Lodge passed away and left it to his wife to run full time. Too much to manage, she decided to sell and it was in January 2006 when we bought the property.

We returned it to a single family home and ultimately a vacation rental for all of our new and returning guests to enjoy. Past stories and memories are sure to be found in the two signs that stay with the property today.

What makes this property unique

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

Surrounded by aspen trees, towering ponderosa pines, and the stunning views of North Sister, Aspen Meadow Lodge offers 8.5 acres of the relaxing getaway you have been looking for.

With private access to Whychus Creek, our Pickleball court, and less than two miles from downtown Sisters, we have everything you need for your next vacation.
