Running Why?

A week before our Ashland trip I got an amazing e-deal from the Running Y Resort that included a round of golf. We've wanted to check out this central Oregon resort for a while so the deal was too good to pass up. And I thought it was just a short drive from Ashland...

As it turns out, because you need to cross the mountains the drive wasn't all that short, about 90 minutes, but it was pretty. The resort changed owners this year and is in a period of transition. Not everything was open but we enjoyed the facilities that were. It was very uncrowded compared to Sunriver or Black Butte. The golf courses, both regulation and putt-putt, were challenging and well-maintained.

The downside is that the property is situated next to a marshy wetlands area so mosquitoes were present in abundance. Especially near the putting course.
