Sisters, Oregon, incorporated April, 1946, is a charming little town with a population of 1925. Sisters' commercial district has developed an 1880's western town with many unique shops, galleries, and eating establishments. Our little town hosts over 300 businesses. People come to shop with the beautiful Three Sisters Mountains looming in the background. We have hiking, biking, skiing, swimming, fishing, golfing, and sightseeing within minutes from downtown.

Scenic Highway 20 goes right through our town and the McKenzie Pass ends here too. We are 20 miles west of Bend, 109 miles east of Salem, and 100 miles north east of Eugene.
