About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Fantastic Location! Directly above river w/a 5 minute walk to downtown.

This one-of-a-kind home on a tucked-away street has a location that can't be beat -- a stone's throw from the First Street Rapids Park, an easy walk to downtown, and quick access to the Bend Parkway.

With a warm and friendly vibe, the newly remodeled property has two bedrooms and two baths, sleeping up to four guests. The main floor includes a welcoming entry, cozy living room, laundry/storage room, a bedroom, bathroom, and the all-new sunny and bright kitchen -- a welcoming, well-equipped space. A large pantry/closet, right off the kitchen, has space for storing coolers, picnic supplies, food items and more. Upstairs, the master suite -- with bedroom, bath and balcony -- provides its own little getaway, and a peekaboo view of the river.

The front yard, just outside the kitchen door, provides an inviting space to gather, dine, enjoy a drink or relax with a book. From here you can see, hear and feel the Deschutes river as it makes its way through town. There are also a couple great swimming holes with large rocks to kick back only seconds away. Around the side of the house you will find another, more secluded, patio space.

Walk down the steps at the end of the street to the First Street Rapids Park. Cast your fishing line into the river from a large boulder at river's edge. Turn right on the path and take the footbridge that crosses over the river to the Aubrey Butte River Trail. Turn in the opposite direction along the river path and walk to downtown Bend -- just a short walk away!

To venture beyond downtown, take the parkway just outside the neighborhood, to numerous points of interest in town and beyond -- Mt Bachelor Ski Resort, fabulous mountain lakes, hiking and biking trails, beautiful golf courses and many more of the attractions that make Bend such a popular destination.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a coffee maker.

Excellent location in this city!

We were so impressed with this place. All amenities were in great condition and plentiful. Just a very comformatable place to stay, inside and out. Very clean, all appliances are top of the line and appear fairly new. The location was perfect, and access to the walking trail at the Deschutes River is roughly a 50 yard walk. We had a wonderful time, and highly recommend this house to anyone looking for a great place to stay in Bend.

Great house great location

Great location just a short walk to the river where you can find a great spot to enjoy the water. The house is perfect for 2 couples and has a great front yard to hang out. It’s in a very quiet neighborhood so word of advice, if you invite others over to hang out for their Birthday that aren’t staying with you, make sure they keep the volume and antics under control and are respectful to others.

Great Rental for Any Occasion

This property is located right off 97 and very close to downtown but feels like it is tucked back in a private corner of Bend. The house itself was extremely clean and well maintained. Our hosts were very communicative, friendly, welcoming and really went out of their way to make sure we had everything we need. I can honestly say that this property is one of the best (if not THE best) that we've stayed at. We will definitely be booking again next time we are in the area! Thank you again to Dena and Eric for letting us stay in their home, we had a great time in Bend and on Mt. Bachelor!

Quiet street, everything you would need for a stay

We arrived at night at the home access instructions were provided ahead of time. The owners highly communicative and messaged us to make sure we were all set. We didn’t have a chance to walk down to the riverfront walk due to snow, but could see the path down and the water from the house. Would recommend.
