Great place for our group of 6 (3 couples) to stay for a week do skiing at Bachelor! Just a 35 min drive to the mountain, and centrally located in town for restaurants. The backyard was perfect for the doggies and the hot tub was great for after a long day on the slopes.

The house was GREAT! It was exactly what we were looking for. The hosts were very responsive when contacted. We were in bend for my daughter’s college graduation and this was exactly what we wanted for the weekend and our family celebration. The pool table , game room and hot tub were big hit I loved the nice kitchen it made meal prep so much easier. The upstairs suite was very big and roomy it even had a HUGE showed with two shower heads. Really nice after a long day in the hot sun. The house is easy to find and just a few turns from major roads to take you wherever you need to be. Plus Walmart and Safeway are only about 5 minutes away so very convenient for those last minute items you forgot. I would highly recommend staying here and will probably be doing it again soon.

Awesome house!

My family & I had a great time at the Old Mill District house. The layout was awesome for our toddlers to run around & the pool table room was fun during the evening. We had to drive to get to Old Mill District & Downtown Bend but with toddlers in tow, we didn’t mind. Overall we had a great time & would stay there again.

Fun stay in Bend

The house was just as listed. Aside from a few minor maintenance issues (refrigerator, kitchen cabinet door), everything was great. We really used and appreciated the hot tub, pool table, and game room...they provided hours of fun for our multi-generational family group. Minor request: more dishtowels would be handy!Communications with owners were quick and helpful and they were flexible about giving us a late checkout. We would stay here again.

Gathering Family Together

The Ponderosa House checked all our boxes for a family visit to Bend. As parents of adult children who live away we look for spacious 3 bedroom accommodations. This house did not disappoint. It has plenty of room and available entertainment. We visited Bend for skiing and enjoyed the backyard hot tub, playing billiards, and darts. Finding the canal walking path at the end of the street was a wonderful bonus.
