This little cottage had everything we needed (2 people and a small dog). The cottage is centrally located between drake park downtown in one direction and the deschutes river trail old mill in the other direction. In short, perfectly located with a short walk to explore Bend. We loved exploring Bend by foot by day and hanging out in the backyard in the evenings. We did cook quite a few of our meals ; the kitchen was well stocked. Overall, fantastic stay at this sweet Bend cottage.

The Riverfront Cottage exceeded my expectations. The kitchen had everything I needed for my morning routine and nightly meals. The deck got a healthy dose of sunshine - the perfect spot for coffee and chill time. Bed was perfect! I hope to have a longer stay in in 2026.

About the host

Hosted by John

Host profile image
I am a semi-retired real estate investor who fell in love with Bend and can't find any place I would rather live. There is so much to do here if you like the outdoors, but the community feel is what really makes it special.

Why they chose this property

This was my vacation home in Bend before I decided I had to live here permanently. There are not many homes on the river in Bend, which makes it quite special. You can walk through Drake Park along Mirror Pond to downtown Bend in about ten minutes, and the other direction is the Old Mill District. I love this location and neighborhood so much that when I wanted a bigger home, I moved next door. It is rare to find a place that is so close to everything and because of the river still seems a bit wild.

What makes this property unique

It's really all about the river and the central location.
