Nestled in the foothills of Oregon's Cascade Mountain Range on the southeastern edge of the Willamette Valley, you'll find Sweet Home.
A small logging town, Sweet Home is known as the Gateway to the Santiam Playground. Here, you will find abundant recreational activities at Foster Reservoir, Green Peter Reservoir, along the Santiam and Calapooia rivers and in the many county, state and federal parks. You may enjoy fishing, boating, hiking, hunting, swim, picnic or ski nearby Mt. Bachelor.
You can camp out under the stars at one of our local campgrounds or stay in our comfortable accommodations in town. Enjoy a stroll downtown along Main Street or Long Street where you'll find many murals depicting life in earlier times. Check out HOT Deals from area merchants.
