Welcome to Bend, Oregon - a land of wonderful contrasts that mixes desert and forest, lava and snow, rustic and urban. Located in Central Oregon at the eastern foothills of the Cascade Mountains, Bend is an energetic city noted for year-round recreational activities and diverse cultural offerings. With 300 days of sunshine a year and plenty of fresh snow powder in winter, the high desert country is an idyllic playground for families and enthusiasts of the great outdoors.

Your Ultimate Escapes Signature home in Bend sits proudly on the grounds of the five-star Club at Pronghorn resort community. The resort is situated on 10,000 acres of protected forest land with easy access to all types of outdoor activities. This includes the two championship golf courses on the premises, fly fishing, hiking, biking, rafting, kayaking, and during the winter months, convenient and luxurious access to topnotch skiing and snowboarding at Mt. Bachelor.

At one of the largest resorts in North America, skiers and snowboarders will find great conditions, plenty of snow, big terrain and short lift lines. Mt. Bachelor Ski Resort offers nearly 3700 acres of varied terrain and sits in the high desert of the Central Cascades and is known for dry snow and the best skiing and riding in the West.

Being an exclusive resident at the Pronghorn Club, hitting the slopes is easy. Pronghorn's complimentary lavish Mt. Bachelor shuttle service makes any day a snow day. Enjoy refreshments, or bring your morning paper, and sit back and relax while your driver does all the work. Transported in a luxurious and spacious vehicle, enjoy pick-up at the Club house, and drop-off right at the base of Mt. Bachelor. Everything is taken care of for you—this is truly skiing/snowboarding at its very best!

"A dream four-season community for the active and well-heeled: [The Club at Pronghorn] takes the patented spa-and-golf formula and gives it an outdoorsy Northwestern twist." — Luxury Spa Finder (November 2007)
