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).

Twin Lakes Resort is located in the Cascade Lakes Region of Central Oregon. Located on the shores of South Twin Lake, there is an RV park close by on the banks of the Deschutes Channel of Wickiup Reservoir. Twin Lakes Resort is an excellent location for fishing and family fun, and would be great for branded content shoots. It is open year round with a  full service restaurant, java hut, and charming country store.   There is also a private dining area for hire.

There are cabins for rent on site, and lakeside.

Location fee required payable to the Resort.

The Steens Mountain Ranges are located in Eastern Oregon, along the Alvord Desert.  This gives the mountains a supernatural, yet majestic feel.  This area would be wonderfully suited to a car commercial, or sci-fi production.

Images were taken early November.  A few weeks later there was a greater snow accumulation for an even more striking backdrop.

Summer Lake Hot Springs, located in Summer Lake, near Paisley in Eastern Oregon is a hot springs that is open year round.  The owners are amenable to filming and there is lodging on site (cabins, RV hookups and camping).  There are multiple barns on the property, and a horse corral (with horses).  Expansive location with mountains on one side, and alkaline lake bed on the other.  

Images were taken in early November, at 8.30am, predominantly facing NE.

Prineville is a film set waiting to happen.  Ever see the film “Pleasantville”?  Prineville has a Normal Rockwell charm, with beautiful buildings and a small town Americana vibe.  Prineville is the oldest community in Central Oregon, dating back to 1868 and many of the buildings reflect the character of that time period.

Opposite to that, Facebook has a massive data center in Prineville that would fit into any Sci-Fi production you have (although we doubt they will allow filming to take place on site).

With a proactive Chamber of Commerce and a  plethora of varying locations to choose from, we highly recommend Prineville as a destination location. The area has stunning rock formations, golf courses, reservoirs and a currently empty medical building that could be the backdrop of your production.

Additionally, Prineville looks stunning over the Christmas season for your Holiday shoot.
