Description and history

edit

The Pilot Butte Inn was built in 1917 on the banks of the Deschutes River in Bend, Oregon. The hotel building, described as a "rustic sportsman’s lodge", was designed by architect John E. Tourtellotte. It exhibited American Craftsman style architecture and made use of local materials like pine and river rock.[2]

In 1972, the inn became the first site in Deschutes County to be listed on the National Register of Historic Places. However, the building was demolished in June 1973.[2][3]
