Eat, sip & linger
A town meal and a supply stop can be a sensible beginning to a longer stay. Arrange the ride to lodging before you book remote dining or recreation.

An itinerary that fits the bus
Make the time here count.
The listed times are 1:15 PM northbound and 4:45 PM southbound. For an outdoor-focused stay, an overnight and a prearranged local ride usually give you more room than a short turnaround.
Attractions, tastings, meals, lodging and local transportation are separate from your intercity ticket. Check current opening days, reservations, accessibility and the distance from the stop before setting the itinerary.
Local visitor information & current activity ideas ↗Keep the journey connected.
Compare onward services for your actual date, stop and direction. Allow time to collect luggage, change boarding areas and absorb delays. A nearby route or shared city does not mean a protected connection or a through ticket.
Ask your lodging, host or destination about the final ride from the listed stop. Do not assume a taxi, rideshare or local bus will be available without checking in advance.
Questions before you go

Only the boarding points and scheduled route stops listed above are included. Wineries, trailheads, hotels and other suggested experiences may require a separate local ride. Plan that ride before booking an activity.
Can I make a same-day return?
The listed times are 1:15 PM northbound and 4:45 PM southbound. For an outdoor-focused stay, an overnight and a prearranged local ride usually give you more room than a short turnaround.
Where do I confirm my final fare and boarding instructions?
Select your actual travel date and exact stop pair in the booking system, and compare the current operator timetable. Prices shown here are published standard one-way examples; eligibility, availability and service patterns can differ. Call 541-366-5110 if the itinerary or boarding area is unclear.
