They owe it all to Him, an oft-spoken about character who you'll eventually realize is most likely their unknown deity. Since finding this pristine place, the residents of Oasis have taken care of and defended Oasis from a harsh outside world. It appears Oasis was stumbled upon by some people (presumably out friend Father Tree Birch was among them) about two decades ago.

When you do, you'll be able to converse with him about Oasis, its history, and about the people that live there. He'll walk towards something identified as The Pavilion - follow him to where he sits on what appears to be some sort of throne, and then speak with him again. Tree Father Birch will head on inside, leaving his associate at the front gate. Was this place somehow isolated from the atomic blasts? Or did they somehow grow anew these plants and create a more habitable place for themselves? Regardless of what's going on, speak to one of the guards, Tree Father Birch, and follow him inside the settlement when he invited you to join him. And the two guards at the door, while normal looking people, seem well-clothed and well-armed. Trees are growing normally and are in full bloom perhaps the only outdoor place in the Wasteland where this is happening. Immediately, you'll notice something suspicious about this place (though not necessarily in a bad way). When you've traveled far enough, you'll find the wooden gate to Oasis guarded by two of the settlement's residence. Head down the linear path as it thins and rises slightly in elevation. If you swing around this chasm and keep a keen eye, you'll eventually see a path leading back into the mountainous area you were previously avoiding. From there, travel northwest until you reach a chasm, and begin working your way around that chasm (which will actually bring you in a northeasterly direction for a while - seemingly antithetical to your approach). When you first arrive there, you'll find Super Mutants and a human prisoner and little else, but this is a fairly easy location to find atop a precipice looking southward over the expansive Wasteland. Up in the center-northern segment of the map, you'll find something called the Clifftop Shacks. Finding Oasis simply isn't easy, because there's only one way in and one way out, and the pathway to the settlement is obscured and difficult to find. In the far, far northern end of the Capital Wasteland, almost directly in the middle of the map (and due far, far north of Megaton) is an isolated and hard-to-locate settlement called Oasis.
