Highlander Motel & RV Park
Overview
Overview
Travelers rolling through central Oregon will find Highlander Motel & RV Park situated right in La Pine, offering a straightforward lodging option along the US-97 corridor. This property combines classic roadside motel lodging with associated RV spaces, serving as a functional basecamp for motorists exploring the high desert plateau and the southern reaches of Deschutes County.
Location & Surroundings
Positioned at an elevation of over four thousand feet, La Pine experiences a distinct high-desert mountain climate characterized by warm summer days, crisp evenings, and crisp winters surrounded by extensive stands of Ponderosa pine. Visitors arrive via Highway 97, passing through volcanic terrain, lodgepole forests, and open meadows framed by the distant peaks of the Cascade Range.
Amenities & Park Features
Because specific on-site facilities cannot be verified without direct confirmation, guests should contact the management ahead of arrival to verify exact specifications. RVers should inquire directly regarding hookup configurations, maximum rig length limits, pull-through availability, and seasonal operating schedules. Clarifying these details in advance ensures your motorhome or travel trailer matches the layout of the property.
Nearby Attractions & Things to Do
The surrounding landscape provides abundant outdoor recreation centered around water and public lands. The nearby Deschutes River invites anglers and paddlers, while the expansive waters of Crane Prairie Reservoir and Wickiup Reservoir offer exceptional trout fishing and boating just a short drive away. Outdoor enthusiasts also explore the dramatic geological formations of the Newberry Volcanic Monument and nearby hiking trailheads.
Who This Park Is Best For
This stopover suits road-trippers navigating Central Oregon who need a practical launching point rather than an isolated resort experience. It appeals to anglers, hunters, and hikers seeking convenient access to Cascade lakes and national forest service roads without straying too far from the services and fuel stops available along the main highway.
Reviews

The bed was one of the most comfortable. A bit high on the room Rate and no breakfast. An older mom and pop hotel. But we felt safe there.

Nice stop before Crater Lake. Rooms were basic and clean. Great value

Local family business that truly cares about their customers. You won’t find owners that are more personable and willing to assist you. Close to all downtown business as food and grocery stores are literally a small walk away.

An absolute gem of a motel, I'm glad I found it! I pulled off the road early because of the weather and based on the good reviews and the fact that they took pets I decided to stay here. I was given a very friendly welcome and found an extremely clean and recently renovated room with comfy beds, great heating, and most importantly very strong and fast Wi-Fi! Rates were extremely reasonable and I will definitely make this a repeat stop.

We are a family with young kids. We stayed here and we're impressed. For $140 we got a king and pull out queen. The room was clean and looked pretty recently updated. It was surprisingly sound resistant, I could hardly hear the highway noise at all. Sadly, there was a fire outside of town the second night we were going to stay and we chose to leave, for peace of mind. The kind young guy offered to try to find a way to compensate for that but we told them we knew it was our choice to go and no fault of the small business! We will likely stay here again, as our kiddos LOVED the area. We spent time at the High Desert Museum, Lava Butte and Lava River Cave.
