Greetings!
Summer is almost coming to an end, but that doesn't mean the sun goes away in Central Oregon. The warm weather and sunny days stay with us typically until late October. This is a perfect time of year to come and enjoy Sunriver in a less-crowded atmosphere while SAVING 50% OFF VACATION RENTALS with our fall special

Haven't made plans for Labor Day weekend yet? We have dropped all minimum stays through Labor Day weekend, so now you can come down for a quick 2-night stay if that suits you! If you stay 3 nights, you are eligible for the 4th night F*REE over Labor Day weekend, too.

Did you know that we offer F*REE unlimited high-speed Internet access in all our vacation homes and condos now? Sunset Realty is the only company in Sunriver to offer this extra-value amenity to our guests at no additional charge. We make it easy for you to stay connected to your friends, family and co-workers while you're on vacation! Surf the web while sunbathing on your deck with our wireless access, or plug-in using the provided cable if you don't have wireless capability on your laptop.

We look forward to having you as our guest this fall in Sunriver!

Best regards,
Lynnette Braillard
Marketing Director

And the rest of the Sunset Realty staff!

I "GPS ECO CHALLENGE" YOU!

Something entirely unique has hit the Central Oregon area...GPS Eco Challenges by Wanderlust Tours. What was once designed for team-building activities for Nike execs, has now been re-structured into a fun and thought-provoking adventure for the entire family, small or large group.

Each team is outfitted with a GPS (global positioning system) device. Upon receiving your first GPS coordinate, the race begins with a clue-finding, point-by-point adventure spanning sage covered high desert terrain from 1.5 to 3 miles in range. A prize awaits all in the end. GPS Eco Challenges can be customized to the age and skill-level of your group.

GPS Eco Challenges are available for 1/2 day tours at 9am & 1pm daily. $60 per person/$55 for kids 12 & under
