How Travel Mckenzie works?

Visitor:

The McKenzie River is a magical place, the variety of natural wonders in the surrounding Willamette National Forrest is awe inspiring. 

The communities here are small and Oregon has gone out of its way to limit growth and development here to protect the surrounding beauty.

This directory is designed to help you find these hidden gems as well as the local businesses that support the care and maintenance  of the surrounding forrest.

When visiting, please be sure to stop for a good meal, buy some fuel, supplies and keepsakes, and if you can stay the night in one of our many beautiful lodges and vacation homes.  

Business Owner:

Our directory is built and maintained by McKenzie Community Partnership to help strengthen our communities economy.

If you have a business or attraction you want included on our list, reach out to us.  We are a non-profit and work with the McKenzie River Chamber of Commerce
