Originally an old shack, the Cowboy Dinner Tree is now a restaurant consisting of several rooms, in addition to a gift show and nearby cabin accommodation. Located 90 minutes SE of Bend, this is a location that suits itself to cowboy and western themed shoots. The owners are easy to work with and keen to showcase their property and work with you on your shoot. There are rustic cabins on site, and basic accommodation nearby in Paisley, Lakeview and LaPine (Best Western Newberry Crater).
There is also a very friendly cat on site (waiting for its closeup).
