Guestbook comments from the manager
We are so glad you open this home to pets. No where else would take our 3 dogs. It is important to have our pets with us, and we thank you for understanding. This was the perfect place to spend Christmas. We would love to come back in the summer and experience Bend in the summertime. Thanks so much!

Great place to stay
We enjoyed our little spring break getaway at this rental property. Went hiking every day and had a nice place to come 'home' to. And it was nice to be able to take our dog with us. Would stay here again without hesitation.
Very cozy and private place to stay in Bend!
Great central location! We really loved the coziness of the place and the beautiful private and fenced back yard! Hot tub was a bonus! It was really nice to have the use of the garage to store our vehicle and bikes. Owners are very accomodating as well. We would definately stay here again!
amazing house to stay at!
me and my wife and our 2 dogs stayed here for the weekend and it was amazing! the patio area with the fire pit and hot tub was so nice we basically just stayed at the house the whole weekend instead of venturing out a bunch. loved this place and bob and theresa were very helpful with anything we needed! cant wait to come back
Great location, right off Galveston. Quiet, private and cozy
We had a wonderful time. The house was very clean and comfortable. The outdoor space is fantastic, and it's a close walk to several wonderful local spots. We enjoyed the juice bar, the wine bar, the brew pub, and bought gifts for our nephews bday without having to get in our car. I would highly recommend this place to anyone considering it
cozy house
Had a very nice stay in this little cozy house in historic old town bend. Very close to downtown.
A wonderful inviting get away.
This place is always clean and very welcoming. There had been some updates since the last time we stayed there that were awesome. This is my favorite home away from home. My favorite is the covered patio that we had our morning coffee on to the peaceful garden that was welcoming spring. The hot tub was a great way to wind the day down. We will be back again. Thanks for sharing your house with us and being pet friendly.
