Quick, before the nights get too chilly and winter blows us indoors, dash out for a gift of this wonderfully extended summer: deck dining with a view. Taking your meal al fresco is romantic, fun, and an exceptional way to connect with people you care about. Here are five of my favorite dining experiences on Oregon's lakes, rivers and streams. Because dining can be more than a meal; it can be a memory.

 

On the Fav 5 List: Simon's at the Columbia Gorge Hotel, The Boathouse on Suttle Lake, Steamboat Inn, Marion Forks Restaurant, the Wallowa Lake Lodge + more honorable mentions.
