The first part of our vacation was exploring the Oregon Outback, a place I really enjoyed. First of all, driving is much more fun when you are the only car in sight for miles and miles. I also really enjoyed the landscape as it is similar to what I grew up with in Boise.
We stayed at Summer Lake Hot Springs, which provides camping and RV spaces and cabins.
This is the bathhouse that covers the biggest hot springs–fed pool. This picture shows fence rails and that’s where the three outdoor pools are. They are of varying temperatures and we found them to be generally hotter than the main pool.
Here is our cabin, Manzanita. Inside the decor is very eclectic as if it was sourced from various thrift shops. In other words, my kind of place.
Aside from a bed and a kitchen sink and hot plate, there was also a toilet and sink. Super luxury. Here is the glamor shot.
On the first night we played Micro Macro Crime City and had fun staring at the drawing to identify the various crimes that were being committed. This is a fun game that can be played by kids and adults alike. (There were some mature scenarios that are not kid-friendly, but they were clearly marked.)
