Get Outdoors
Bond with mom on a hike, wandering along cool mountain lakes and rushing rivers, through alpine forests and high mountain prairies, along caldera rims and lava beds. The Deschutes River Trail is a popular hike along the scenic Deschutes River, or you can take a quick loop around Sparks Lake, one of the most photographed lakes in the state. You can also take things easy and just wander through the trails in the Old Mill District, where you can stop to shop and for coffee and gelato during your walk.
Shopping
Depending on how things are going, you may have to approach this differently. But, if your mom loves to shop, she’ll appreciate your effort and imagination. If things are back to normal, the two of you can have fun in the Old Mill District and in Downtown Bend. Start with a stop in Bronwen Handcrafted Jewelry and the Wooden Jewel for one-of-a-kind jewelry pieces. Spend a few hours browsing through Dudley’s Bookstore Café for a good book and a good cup of locally roasted coffee.
Not ready for in-person shopping? No problem. Set up a virtual shopping spree. Give her a gift card or two and get her settled in bed, in front of the flat screen in one of our beautiful vacation rentals in Bend. Have a few of her favorite snacks along with her favorite beverages nearby, then let her shop the day away.
Treat Her to a Spa Day
One of several spas in Bend, Radiant Day Spa offers massage, facials, peels, and a view of the Deschutes River. If your mom is a beer lover, book a Microbrew Soak in the Hop of the Day Spa. A private cedar soaking barrel filled with herbs, minerals, and hops will have her relaxing in no time.
Take Her to Lunch
Treat mom to lunch or dinner. Dine inside or outside or grab take-out to dine at your leisure on the deck or in front of the TV as you watch mom’s favorite rom-com. Order hot sourdough scones served with honey butter from the Pine Tavern, and Vegetable Risotto or Shrimp Andouille and Crawfish Jambalaya from Zydeco Kitchen & Cocktails for a start. Stop by Ben & Jerry’s for a pint of her favorite flavor for a perfect end to the day.
