Nine Local Businesses Chosen from More than 300 Entries; Winners Featured Online & in the December/January Issue of Sunset Magazine

The winners of Sunset Magazine’s 2021 Sunset Travel Awards were recently announced, and Central Oregon — including nine regional businesses — is featured prominently as the magazine’s Desirable Destination. As part of the award designation, which appears online and in the winter issue of the magazine, Sunset highlights a full weekend itinerary of suggestions for what to do, sights to see and where to stay in Central Oregon.

The regional businesses included in the weekend itinerary are FivePine Lodge, Three Creeks Brewing and Sisters Coffee Company of Sisters and Bend’s Deschutes Brewery, Boss Rambler Beer Club, Cascade lakes Brewing Co., Wild Rose Thai, 5 Fusion and Sushi Bar and The Last Blockbuster on Earth.

“It’s an honor to be among the winners chosen by Sunset, which is widely considered the premier travel and lifestyle authority in the West,” said Julia Theisen, CEO of Visit Central Oregon. “Central Oregon only succeeds if our local businesses thrive, and after enduring the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic to our local tourism economy, this recognition is a welcome reward and a testament to the fortitude of the communities and individuals that make us what we are.”

Central Oregon and the nine recognized businesses were chosen by the Sunset selection committee from more than 300 entries, including two dozen entries submitted by Visit Central Oregon on behalf of its regional tourism partners.

In addition to extensive online coverage, the Desirable Destination: Central Oregon feature also appears in the special Sunset Travel Awards section of the magazine’s winter print issue. The print coverage alone has an editorial value of more than $24,000.
