This multi-level Riverfront park features a covered group picnic area,  open lawn areas and riverfront woods plus two parking areas (snow would need to be plowed to make more room).  Road bridge nearby, overlooking park. Grassy area. Covered picnic area.

The Park is particularly beautiful in the Fall when the colors are ablaze (see other post). There is a walking/biking path along the Deschutes River, and some stairs from one garden level to the river.

Multiple accommodation beside and across the street from the park allows for walk to shoot.

Located a few minutes from downtown Bend.  Close to freeway.

This is a perfect year round location for a fly-fishing shoot, branded content (wedding shots on the bridge), camping or recreation shoot.

Located closed to La Pine, Sunriver and Bend, there’s parking for up to 10 vehicles at the entrance to the trail, and additional space within the camping sites for production vehicles.

Devils Lake is located on the Cascade Lakes Highway, approximately 30 minutes from Bend and is a stunning aquamarine lake.  In the Winter it freezes over, and in early winter can be used as a skating lake.  Deeper in winter, it is completely covered in snow.  The area is a lava forest.

There is parking on the Highway which encompasses a short but steep hike down to the lake. There is also parking off road leading to campsites.

In winter the highway is closed from the Mt. Bachelor access point, but can be accessed via snow mobiles or snow cat.

During the Summer the lakes are maintained by Deschutes National Forest, in winter the permitting process is handled by ODOT (Oregon Dept. of Transportation).
