Brasada RanchHomes for Sale

Brasada Ranch sits in the high desert of Powell Butte, on the open ground between Bend, Redmond, and Prineville. The resort community covers 1,800 acres on the flank of Powell Butte, and 900 of those acres are kept as protected open space. From across the property you look west to the peaks of the Cascade Range, with the scrub and rim-rock of the Oregon high desert in the foreground.

The land was once the Shumway family cattle holdings. The window and door manufacturer Jeld-Wen developed it into a residential resort starting in 2005, built to environmental standards. Brasada became the first newly built destination resort in the United States to earn LEED Gold certification. In November 2010, Jeld-Wen sold the resort to Northview Hotel Group, which runs the lodging and amenities alongside the homes.

Brasada Canyons opened in 2007. It was designed by Oregon PGA player Peter Jacobsen and Jim Hardy. The 18-hole, par-72 course runs 7,295 yards from the back tees and climbs through the canyons from 3,272 feet to just over 4,000 feet, so the elevation changes carry you from hole to hole with no two fairways running parallel. It plays as a private course, open to members and guests of the ranch.

The Athletic Center holds strength and cardio equipment, weights, and Peloton bikes, with classes that include pilates and yoga. There are two pools, the Sundance Pool with a seasonal waterslide and lazy river and the Cascade adult pool, plus outdoor hot tubs open year-round. Spa Brasada offers body and beauty treatments. The equestrian program, Brasada Trails, keeps American Quarter horses and runs riding on 900 acres of trails. Residents also reach hiking and biking trails, fishing ponds, tennis and pickleball courts, and a dog park. Two restaurants serve the property, both open to the public.

Brasada is built around the golf course and the open desert, with custom homes and cabins set across the 1,800 acres. The protected acreage and the spacing of the homesites keep the Cascade and high-desert views open from much of the community, which is part of what sets it apart from a standard subdivision.
