There are many reasons to visit Crater Lake in Oregon. The deepest and cleanest body of water in the country, Crater Lake is an immensely beautiful natural treasure. Within Crater Lake National Park, opportunities for outdoor adventure abound, many of which are the kind of once-in-a-lifetime experiences of bucket-list dreams. There are also some truly extraordinary accommodations in and around the park, which only add to the experience. But there’s another reason to visit Crater Lake: pie. Yes, pie. You see, just 10 miles from this world-famous national park, there’s another world-famous wonder, and it’s the huckleberry pies from Beckie’s Café.

Beckie's Café is a longstanding institution near the small town of Prospect, Oregon. It's located just 10 miles from Crater Lake National Park, but folks often come to this area just for the pies. Sorry, Crater Lake!

What makes these pies so special? Well, they really are the sum of their parts: the experience of dining in a historic lodge, an old family recipe, wild berries picked from the forest behind the restaurant, an impossibly buttery crust... it's all of these things!
