Madras

With views of the Cascade mountains and lovely high desert climate,
Madras is a Central Oregon gem.

With quicker access to Mt. Hood, Portland,and the coast than the rest of Central Oregon, Madras attracts

commuters, long-term residents, and outdoor enthusiasts alike. An up-and-coming business scene with a rural feel provides residents with
the laid-back atmosphere they’re looking for.

Boating enthusiasts enjoy Lake Billy Chinook, which sits at the
convergence of the Crooked, Deschutes, and Metolius rivers. Home to the
Airshow of the Cascades, the Madras Municipal Airport features the
Erickson Aircraft Collection, which displays historic and vintage WW2
aircraft.

Other recreation in the city includes horseback riding,
fishing, and the beautiful Desert Peaks Golf Club. The Willow Creek
Trail System provides access throughout the city, connecting residents
to schools, downtown, and parks in seven miles of paved trails.

Residents enjoy the Jefferson County Fair and Rodeo located at the
Jefferson County Fairgrounds where events are featured year-round. It’s
easy to see why residents fall in love with Madras.
