Look out the back door to the left and you’ll see Pilot Butte state park! This is a great hike that brings you to an amazing viewpoint. You can also drive to the top! You can see all of Bend, the cascade mountains and even as far as Mt. Hood which is by Portland on a clear day! There’s also a park and playground located at the base where the trail starts.
