Vacation Rentals by Owner

Couldn't have been better!

My friend and I spent 6 nights at the condo in November, and we couldn't have found a better place to stay while in Sisters for our week-long quilting class. It was located just a couple blocks from the store, near restaurants, coffee shops, and shopping. We would not have needed a car if we weren't driving in from Portland. The condo was very clean, beds comfortable, two separate bathrooms, well-stocked kitchen, quiet location, and even better in person than the pictures show. Jill, the concierge, was sweet and helpful. I can't imagine staying anywhere else should I return to Sisters in the future.

The "interesting" weather in April was just one more added delight for a stay filled with wonderful experiences. From the fresh flowers and welcoming note from Jill, to the incredible view from the balcony . . . this condo was the next thing to heaven! A friend and I came for a quilting class at the Stitchin' Post and were the envy of the class to whom we reluctantly showed our "treasure". Now we're afraid we'll never find an available time frame for us again. After a couple of weeks, friend #1 reluctantly went home and friend #2 arrived--a non-quilter friend. She and I did lots of exploring to places I'd never been before: the Bend Distillery, Scott Lake out beyond Suttle Lake, the picnic grounds out the headwaters of the Metolius. . . . and on and on. So many fun new restaurants -- if you haven't been to the Wine Bar - Cask Cellar -- that's a must. The wine flights, the food, the fun! The condo is a perfect location for walking to everything in town from Sisters Coffee in the morning to the Wine Bar in the evening to just sitting on the balcony and taking in the view everchanging.

Sister's Wonderland

Our experience in Sister's at this location was everything we could ever expect! This condo was centrality located with access to everything we needed. When I locked my keys in the car. Jill graciously took me all over town looking for a solution to our situation. She went above and beyond with her service to us! (Thanks, Jill.) The condo was perfect and had plenty of space for all! When we visit Sister's again this will be our first choice! Perfect!! Sincerely, John

lovely condo in Sisters

This is a lovely little spot close to downtown Sisters. We were there Monday-Wednesday. The restaurants which interested us were closed on Monday and we had a difficult time finding a good breakfast spot. There were wonderful menus provided, but the restaurants weren't open. We ended up at a bar/grill for supper and a local diner for breakfast which wasn't what we were hoping for. We also have small children who run, wrestle and hop. During business hours we had to work hard to keep them from romping and disturbing folks below. We were told the offices are open on the weekends also. This condo is perfect for two couples. We spend a couple days at Hoodoo sledding, skate skiing and down hilling; it was great to be so close. Jill is a lovely lady and resource. One of my girls is scared of dogs, but fell in love with her kind big dog.

We had a wonderful stay at your condo...what a gem of a place. It is very well maintained with all the conveniences and within walking distance to everything in Sisters. The surpise snowfall was a wonderful addition to our trip. Jill is such a wonderful help in getting familiar with the area and just a delightful person. We appreciated having her there as a resource. We look forward to staying at your condo again in the near future! Thank you!

We recently stayed in this lovely condo and had a wonderful time. Jill was fabulous and we had everything we needed. The only things that could have been improved were the flat pillows and the heating system. It got REALLY hot in the bedroom at night if you kept your door open and REALLY cold if you closed it. Perhaps it was due to the cold weather but that was the only thing we had problems with. The location is GREAT and the condo is fully stocked. I recommend it highly!

Owner response:We received the evaluation regarding the heating system as to hot or too cold in the bedroom. We appreciate all reviews and we took steps to remedy this concern. We rely on our guests to let us know if a concerning is needed and it helps us correct things that we miss. So thanks for the notice.

My family and I were so impressed with the details of this beautiful condo. The furnishings are stylish and comfortable. Being a cook, I appreciated the attention that has been given to stocking the kitchen with everything a cook would need to prepare a wonderful meal. All of the beds were very comfortable... even the sofa sleeper! The hostess is a delightful person, giving us all the information we needed for a great stay. I was also impressed with the professional attention that was given to my initial reservation. This condo, owners and hostess deserve an "Excellent" 5-star rating.

Enjoyed your condo very much during my sisters in sisters weekend. Condo was perfectly located for walking to town. Beautiful views of Mountain and when we were there, beautiful view of tons of dear grazing in the field across from the condo. I can not say enough wonderful things about Jill she was the best and more than helpful to us.Thanks..will return if I ever spend an evening in sisters again.

My friend and I thoroughly enjoyed our 3 night stay in the condo and hope to rent it again, next winter. We were only a short distance away from XC ski trails and then were able to enjoy being in town in evenings. The condo is spacious and open, with everything we needed for food preparation and relaxation. Thank you.

What a great long weekend! Not only did we have a great time at Central Oregon Round Up, but we also had a wonderful place to stay. It was so convenient to the high school and shopping. We gals could even go shopping without the guys by simply walking to town. Even though we ate out a lot the kitchen was equipped so fantastically we may end up cooking when we come back next year. Jill was a godsend being so close when we had the smallest problem or question. We will definitely be back in coming years.

Your condo was wonderful. It was clean, nicely furnished including the kitchen, spacious, has a great view of the mountains, is within walking distance of town (including the coffee house and bakery hot spots), and is adjacent to an upscale housing area for walking. Jill was most helpful anytime we needed it. We will come again. Ron and Nancy

Six quilters spent a wonderful week in Sisters during 2009 Quilt Show and found your condo to be the perfect place to stay. Quiet, yet close to town activity and such a relaxing retreat. Everything we could have wanted was there at our fingertips. Thanks for such a terrific, beautiful, handy place to stay.

Our sisters’ trip to Sisters was a lot of fun and our stay at your condo was just perfect! The condo was very comfortable, extremely convenient to the wonderful shops and restaurants in Sisters. Jill was very helpful and gave us suggestions for the things to do. Dinner at The Boathouse at Suttle Lake was special! This trip was extra special as it was a reunion with our four cousins we grew up with at a wedding -- what fun!Jean Polumbo- Riverside, CA,

We are deeply grateful for our week in your terrific condo in Sisters. The town has changed so much since I grew up around there in the 40's and 50's. I really like the new development and the ability to take walks in such beauty. The condo kitchen was the best equipped I've stayed in. Thank you for your hospitality. Robin Moore

Cowgirl Jill and pooch, Elsa,were a refreshing add on to our visit. We found lots of places to ride our new tandem bike, including to the top of McKenzie Summit Pass before leaving.

Hi David, We were happy with our arrangements while in Sisters. The condo worked out beautifully. The location was great as our daughter loved being close to stores, etc. The condo was equipped with everything we needed - including a hair dryer. We would definitely want to stay there again should we be in Sisters. Best wishes from the Wysons

Hello, My husband and I stayed in your condo in May of this year. It was perfect----so well equipped-----better than any we have ever stayed in. Light, roomy and very comfortable-------beds included. We had a view of the mountains and could walk to town. We loved having Jill and Elsa (our dog away from home) next door. It was like we were friends as soon as we met them. We will definitely stay there again----the price is most reasonable and we enjoyed having the condo so much. Great location and extremely comfortable condo. Hope you enjoy it as much as we did----- The Smiths from Virginia

Jill is a joy, very helpful, made us feel right at home, and her dog Elsa was a big hit with the kids. We are looking forward to are next stay, thanks again Jay

As an old resident of Sisters, it is nice to return to my old stomping grounds and stay in a place that is perfectly located to all Sisters has to offer. The condo has everything you need for a great stay...it felt just like home and the view is gorgeous. Jill was great and left a couple little notes to welcome me and send me off! Thanks for a great vacation!!

David:As I work to unpack from this weekend, I thought I’d send you a quick email to thank you so much for providing such a wonderful place for my girlfriend and I to spend time together celebrating our 50th birthdays.Your condo was everything we expected and more. We were very comfortable and were able to enjoy an absolutely wonderful weekend, including perfect weather. Jill was just as great as you said she would be, even allowing us a late checkout. We quickly decided that we do not want to wait until we turn 60 to have another “getaway” so we will definitely be back. Julie, an avid quilter, thought we should try to come back during the famous “quilt weekend” but after checking with Jill, found it has already been booked.We really enjoyed being able to just walk to everything we needed (except the grocery store) and check out all the great shops and restaurants Sisters has to offer. Our time away was very special. It was such a blessing and something that we both desperately needed. Thank you again for accommodating our “rescheduling” and we will definitely pass on info on your place to others who may be interested in finding a great place to stay in Sisters.With much gratitude, Lori & Julie

Dear David & Victoria: My two sisters & I thoroughly enjoyed getting together at your lovely condo. We were very pleased at how tastefully it was decorated, how spacious it was, conveniently located within walking distance of all the fun shops Sisters has to offer, the view from the balcony. It was all very relaxing & pleasing. Jill was a gracious hostess. We've already made up our mind that this will become a yearly thing. Thanks again for everything!

We visit Oregon almost every year and are really glad that the Mendenhall's have shared their home with us. It beats any hotel room by a mile. The condo is very clean and well appointed with a beautiful view. The town of Sister's is fun and everything is within walking distance or a short drive. We will definately be back.
