Coveted Bend area close to outdoor excitement
Set deep in the woods of the Deschutes National Forest, the southwest Bend area of Seventh Mountain is a sought-after area featuring a resort and golf club as well as proximity to outdoor adventures. “It’s so much more accessible to everything,” says Lynnea Miller, principal broker at Bend Premier Real Estate. “You’re close to the city, but still out in the country, so there’s no city taxes.” She says families and retirees move here for the gated subdivisions with views of the distant Cascade Mountains and the clubhouse and fitness center amenities at Seventh Mountain Resort. HOA fees are high here, but Miller says people forget that includes all utilities like cable, internet and sewer. Along with hitting the nine at the well-kept Widgi Creek Golf Club, locals hike along the clear blue waters of the Deschutes River in the east and travel for skiing at Mt. Bachelor farther west.
Seventh Mountain is named after the seven mountain peaks in Deschutes County.
Mount Bachelor is nearby for skiing in the winter and biking in the spring and summer.

Condos with views in Seventh Mountain
While there are single-family homes in the Seventh Mountain community, a large portion of housing is made up of condos built between the 1960s and ‘80s, which residents live in year-round or rent out as vacation homes for part of the year. These Craftsman-style-influenced properties sit in the Seventh Mountain Resort along curvy, paved streets; nearby pine-tree-shaded walking trails lead to tennis courts and a community pool. These properties feature up to three bedrooms and balconies facing the dense Deschutes National Forest. Prices range between $225,000 and $375,000, and folks can expect to pay up to $1,900 in monthly HOA fees.
Further north, gated communities like Points West Subdivision feature early 2000s townhomes and modern Craftsman houses with vinyl and wood exteriors. These one to two-story properties sit side-by-side in a loop along sidewalk-less streets and include covered back patios and wooden decks overlooking the Deschutes River. Residents also have access to the Widgi Creek Golf Club, which offers public and membership-only tee times. Homes roughly range between $700,000 and $1.3 million, and monthly HOA fees can cost as much as $500.

Golfing at Widgi Creek and whitewater rafting on the Deschutes
The 18-hole Widgi Creek Golf Club has a driving range and over 25 grass-hitting stations for visitors to practice their swing. Whitewater rafting near Big Eddy Trailhead is a go-to activity 4 miles south; families are bussed from Seventh Mountain Resort down to the Deschutes River for a few rides past calm and gushing rapids, and afterward, participants relax in the water and play games. Mt. Bachelor is a 16-mile drive west fixed with ziplining tours, miles of dirt track for mountain biking and plenty of slopes for winter skiing and snowboarding.

Paddling for a cause near Riverbend Park
In May, residents can travel to Mt. Bachelor for the annual Pole Pedal Paddle race fundraiser, hosted by School Employees of Lane County Oregon. Adult and child participants begin by skiing down Bachelor’s peak, then moving into a 22-mile bike ride along Century Drive, bordering the neighborhood. They then finish with a half mile of kayaking and a quarter mile of running to the finish line in Riverbend Park, a few miles north. Miller says locals like heading 6 miles north to Drake Park for the annual July 4th Pet Parade in July; dogs, goats and horses dressed in patriotic bows march with their owners around the park and through Wall Street in downtown Bend as onlookers cheer from the sidelines.

Reducing risks of wildfires
From July to September, Seventh Mountain may be more at risk of wildfire damage compared to other neighborhoods further north. Deschutes County completes controlled burns throughout the year to reduce the threat. Although the process maintains the forest’s health, neighbors may experience lingering smoke at night and early I the morning during burns.
Seventh Mountain residents are careful and aware of the dangers of wildfires.
