Location: Sunriver, Central Oregon, Oregon, USA (Twenty minute from Bend and half an hour from major airport) View Map
Accommodations: Cabin, 3 Bedrooms + Loft, 2 Baths (Sleeps 2-8)
Delightfully furnished Ranch Cabin eight with the largest RC lawn, has a master bedroom- bath suite downstairs, a couple bedroom upstairs(with down comforters) and also a bedroom with two twin bunkbeds. The bathroom sink area upstairs is outside the bath-shower to allow more users. Also upstairs is a loft area with many games, a couch and coffee table, a desk and book and game shelves, TV, VCR, DVD player. Since we like to spend time at the cabin ourselves, our furniture and art reflect our taste rather than catering to fears of things being broken or art being unappreciated.Likewise, our custom spice rack is filled with gourmet spices. Kitchen counters, floor and two couches are new as of August '06. Kitchen was repainted in 4'07 new Jenn-air stove put in May '07 and upstairs couple bedroom painted in '08.Dining table can be made to sit 4 to 13!
The cabin is near enough the pool to reach it easily but not hear people there. A secluded tennis court, unknown to many at SR, is a two minute walk out the back doors and the lovely duck pond with spectacular views of Mt. Bachelor is just down the bike path in the direction of the nearby Nature Center. Different, equally beautiful portions of the Deschutes are a five minute bike ride away in opposite directions. The mall and Sunriver Lodge are about a mile away.
We also have two outdoor tables and many lounge chairs.

Why the Owner Chose Sunriver
We have owned our house for more than twenty years, originally sharing it with two other couples. However, we love it so much that we finally own it by ourselves. We don’t even like to go many other places in the USA for vacations because we like to be here best of all. We find this the ideal place for what we most enjoy in life: gorgeous scenery, beautiful hikes, sunny ,dry weather, and a comfortable cabin for being inside, for reading, for sitting around fires, for painting inside or out. Rob loves tennis and we are almost across the street from the least known tennis courts in Sunriver; we have a raft that we love to float in on the Deschutes. We both love to bike ride (Rob once rode from Oregon to California) and Mary loves walks and rides on the bike paths. Rob often bikes on the mountain trails.
The Unique Benefits at this Cabin
Please see the above. I can add here that since Mary loves art, she always sees the new exhibits at the Lodge Gallery and beautiful Sunriver library. We also have come to know and love Bend, its lovely stores, good grocery stores ( organic ones, and fish ones, too), its parks and festivals. We have been members of the High Desert Museum and consider it a must for any visitor. We also love the walks through the lava beds and the Obsidian Trail; the Green Lakes Trail is our favorite of any trail anywhere so we still hike it every year. We enjoy Trout House and Meadows food. Yum!
beautiful view of Mt Bachelor.Look and you will find trails around and behind lake...
very secluded.across the W.Cascade from cabin.very beautiful and quiet courts.

We are an active retired couple with 3 adult children, ages 29-42 . Our past careers were in clinical psychology ,accounting and theatre . Rob has become a jock in his older age, entering ski race contests and playing tennis as much as possible.

We love to visit our friends and relative and be hosts to them in either Sunriver or Virgin Gorda. We are grateful for our good health , loving family and friends and the fulfilling and enjoyable life we lead.

These are comments in our guest book in Sunriver; I forget to ask people to also their remarks on the internet so I am copying them here. If you would like to know the real names of the people, I can e-mail them and ask if it is OK to share their names: July 20 ‘08 We had a great time this week, as usual. Our kids liked feeding the chipmunks peanuts and LOVED IT when a deer and fawn came and sat down right outside the deck. The peacefulness of having our “backyard” a big open space was wonderful this time –especially since the rest of our family stayed next door.!.. We even fit 14 people around your able! The kids loved the bunk beds, too…All in all a WONDERFUL time and place The Sh……s Aug 20 ‘08 It was a lovely four days here – inside ANCD out! Thanks for sharing your comfy, cozy cabin with us! The A’s and P’s….. Dec 26-30th ‘08 Happy Holidays! We certainly enjoyed the winter weather – lots of snow. The cabin was quite cozy after a long day of cross country skiing – We’ll be back –Soon hopefully- Thanks for sharing, Shaaron,M and A…( and folks) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- May 08 It was such a treat to come back to your very special ranch cabin in Sunriver! It is truly a lovely place to relax and forget one’s carries and worries, surrounded by trees, crisp air, blue skies, and even several deer. I can never get enough of the bike paths in spring down by the river. You’ve really provided for every need for a vacationer. I also enjoyed the very impressive collection of art, which made the home see so personal! Thank you, thank you. I certainly want to come back again…and again. J.Ru…(Euene)

This guest could not get into this book so she asked me to paste it in for her. let me know if you, too, have problems): You can tell the owners live here part of the year. The kitchen is well stocked with everything you need to cook a gourmet meal on the JennAir range, complete with a full stock of herbs/spices, etc. The dining table is next to their tallest window that looks out through the trees to the bike path. From the kitchen you have the view through the dining room window or face the fireplace highlighted with an exquisite heron quilt from the Sister’s Quilt Show. This home radiates with Sun River graciousness and comfort. We’ll definitely rebook.

There are few entries here because we have just begun renting to people that we do not know. Many of our friends and acquaintances rent from us year after year. They say our cabin has more "charm and character" than most; they like that it is clean, centrally located as well as how unpretentious and comfortable it feels within the good taste of the decor. Summer renters like how much lawn we have; everyone appreciates our fully equipped kitchen. (It's because I love to cook!).
