Also, remember to bring your face covering, required for all of Oregon’s public indoor spaces and outdoors when keeping 6 feet of distance isn’t possible. The next time you’re tackling a new recipe and run across a special ingredient, don’t fret: You can find ingredients like chestnut, oyster and shiitake mushrooms from Rain Forest Mushrooms in Eddyville or milled corn flour and Buckskin Tepary beans from Dunbar Farms in Medford. High-quality, locally sourced ingredients are an essential part of Oregon’s identity, and now you can find those suppliers all in one place from the comfort of your own home. With a few clicks, you can see the diversity of products available from Oregon farms, fisheries, ranches and orchards, as well as farmers markets, roadside farm stands and farms with U-pick offerings.

Just 9 miles from the lodge, Anthony Lakes Mountain Resort offers year-round fun at an altitude of 8,000 feet. Situated on the edge of the no-stoplight town of Westfir, a town near Oakridge, the Westfir Lodge & Mountain Market is a quaint lodge built in 1925 brimming with flowery wallpaper and intricately carved wooden decor. Experience the thrill of the forest trails with a guided, shuttle-assisted tour from Cog Wild, which picks up participants at the local rental shop, Willamette Mountain Mercantile. Show your love to Rogue Valley’s winemakers along the self-guided Bear Creek Wine Trail, which includes more than a dozen tasting rooms with scenic outdoor patios in the Jacksonville, Medford, Phoenix, Talent and Ashland areas.

Salishan Coastal Lodge in quiet Gleneden Beach, on Oregon’s Central Coast, is a short two-hour drive from Portland along Highway 18, a few miles from the bustle of Lincoln City. You’ll know you’re close when you see the shops and hotels give way to the tranquil beauty of the Siletz River and Siletz Bay National Wildlife Refuge, which is full of wetland trails for hiking and marshy waterways for paddling. During low tide there’s plenty of space to toss a Frisbee, fly a kite or try your hand at a fat-bike adventure (look into renting one at Safari Town Surf, 8 miles north in Lincoln City). Make sure to catch the spectacular sunset — from either the lodge or the beach, or head just north of Siletz Bay, a 4-mile drive to Lincoln City’s historic Taft District, for another stunning viewpoint.
