Prime Riverfront Location for Convenience & Outdoor Activities
One of the biggest advantages of staying at Metolius River Lodges is the unbeatable location. Few places offer such close access to both nature and convenience. Each cabin is perched directly along the Metolius River, a spring-fed river famous for its clarity, beauty, and world-class trout fishing. Since the river flows through protected forest land, it remains one of the most pristine waterways in the Pacific Northwest. These cozy, riverfront cabins provide a relaxing retreat surrounded by towering ponderosa pines and countless miles of trails alongside crystal-clear waters and mountainsides. They are also the closest cabins in the area to the Camp Sherman Store, offering walkable access to groceries, made-to-order coffee & sandwiches, flyfishing rental gear and more. Guests come from all walks of life to the Metolius River Lodges to fish, hike, mushroom hunt, bird watch, mountain bike, disconnect from electronics, and reconnect with loved ones. Anglers travel from across the country to fish its clear, cold waters. Staying at Metolius River Lodges gives flyfishers and nature lovers alike a major advantage: Direct river access just steps from their lodge! From your cabin door you can:
- Walk a short distance to prime fishing locations, riverside trails, Hola Peruvian Restaurant, and the Camp Sherman Store
- Relax on a deck and watch a variety of wildlife along the riverbanks
- BBQ on your own private grill in the spring through autumn months
- Drive about 20 minutes or less to a variety of lakes, creeks, wooded & mountainous trails, Hoodoo ski resort, restaurants, bike rentals, horseback riding experiences, the town of Sisters, OR, and more
