Quick bachelor getaway

A short visit during spring break with my college age sons. The owners were very responsive to my booking (within minutes) and gave us the property information well ahead of our arrival. The property was nicely located for walking to restaurants.

Excellent location and cozy

This is a darling little cottage to stay in in a historic part of Bend. We stayed for 6 nights. It is perfect for 3-4 people. As it is small (640 sq. feet) I would not use it for more than 4 people as it would feel a little cramped. The cottage had all we needed. Lots of pots and pans, dishes, washing machine, dishwasher, coffee maker with coffee and grill (which we did not use). Our dog was welcomed which allowed us to bring our 9 year old lab who is very attached to us. I do not ski but my family does...so they took the car and I was able to walk everywhere with the dog. Everything I needed was a 10-15 minute walk. The old Mill district, downtown and the riverfront. There are great shops, restaurants, cafes etc. I walked along the river every day.The only item missing was bath soap. The bar provided was tiny and more of a hand soap bar. That was quickly rectified as the cleaning person showed up by accident and when I mentioned it, she came back with bath gel and soap just a little while later. The hosts could not have been more responsive and helpful. Its a good place to any time of year.

Bend River cottage

The location of this property was amazing , so close to all that Bend has to offer. Everything was walkable from the property and our 2 dogs loved the river which was very close. The only thing missing was some oven mitts and dishcloths otherwise the kitchen was very well stocked. Would definitely stay here again.

Great cottage in convenient location

This was the perfect place for our family of three. It is in a cute neighborhood very close to the river, parks, stores, restaurants, coffee shops, pubs, etc. It was also spotlessly clean and the kitchen had all we needed - we only ate out once. Overall, a first-rate rental.

Bend Gem!!

Great spot for couples with dogs. Although not really good for small dogs ( gaps under gates, etc.) , the yard has plenty of room for medium and larger dogs to romp free. The second bedroom is nice for keeping all the gear out of the way, and full laundry is a huge plus! Thank You!!

Close-in home in Bend

This two bedroom home was perfect for our family of four which included two young adult daughters. We booked this place so we could ski at Mt. Bachelor for four days. It had easy access to the road to Bachelor, was fairly close to downtown and just a few blocks from great food shopping and coffee shops. It was also in a nice and quiet neighborhood. I would definitely recommend and would book here again.

Fabulous Stay!

We had a wonderful time. The house is close to parks in a quiet neighborhood. We are a little too old to hike downtown but a short bike ride or walk for younger folks would be easy enough. Our pup enjoyed the fenced yard. Everything you need for a great stay is provided. Dishes, spices, even spare batteries for the tv remote. You can relax and have a great time. The only suggestion I can make is the picture shows a white fence and it has been redone since the photo. The street has no street lights and the house numbers make zero sense so It was a little difficult to find the correct house after dark.
