Mountain View Retreat - 3Bed - 2.5 Bath on 17acres
Welcome to your secluded Bend escape — a one-of-a-kind mountain retreat with breathtaking views of Mt. Bachelor, set at the end of the road on 17 private acres. This peaceful property offers the perfect balance of total privacy and unbeatable convenience, just minutes from Downtown Bend, the Old Mill District, Drake Park, and Mt. Bachelor.
Whether you’re planning a ski trip, a summer adventure, or a quiet getaway, this home is designed for comfort, relaxation, and unforgettable moments.
We want your stay to be seamless and stress-free. While we respect your privacy, our professional property manager is available 24/7 via phone, text, or email should any needs or questions arise during your stay. We are here to ensure you have a wonderful experience at our mountain view retreat.
Experience the best of Central Oregon—you are only a short drive from the world-class dining, shopping, and outdoor adventures that make Bend famous. Staying here means you don't have to choose between "getting away from it all" and being close to the action. Spend your morning hiking backyard trails and your afternoon enjoying city amenities, before returning home to a private hot tub under the stars.

Breakfast: Start like a local at McKay Cottage Restaurant for award-winning hashes, Jackson’s Corner for farm-to-table comfort, or Chow for creative local dishes. For a sophisticated twist, try the globally-inspired brunch at The Lemon Tree downtown.

We came to central Oregon to play golf and stayed 4 nights at this lovely property and have absolutely zero complaints. Not only do they provide all the “necessary” things to make they stay comfortable, but they go above and beyond. All the spices we need. All the laundry soap we needed. And more coffee than anyone could ever need!If we are ever back in Bend, this home will be my first choice.
House was great! Had plenty of amenities and stocked with some miscellaneous things in case you forget anything- made for a cozy stay with friends. WiFi was a little spotty but other than that it was perfect for a weekend getaway! Amazing views!!
We joined family who are Bend residents for Thanksgiving. This house was a mile from them and a very nice place to stay. The views are wonderful and the house was everything we needed
I was a little nervous since this place didn’t have many reviews. It was amazing!! The cleanest rental property I’ve ever stayed at. The house is beautiful and the view from the back patio is great. The hot tub worked perfect. This would be a good place to stay with a bigger group as there is quite a bit of space. No complaints!
This house was on an amazing lot with beautiful scenery all around. It had everything we could’ve possibly needed. Perfect for any size family. Close to town and still able to get Instacart. Every drawer has something you could use including an amazing cleaning closet.
We talked, laughed and cried it was like being at home and would love to stay another time to explore bikes and trails.
We stayed at this beautiful home off a quiet road. We were able to see colorful sunrises and amazing sunsets. The home is warm and comfortable. We were amazed at the array of utensils, storage containers and even storage bags, plastic wrap and tin foil. The kitchen beautiful and is very well stocked.
The back deck is amazing even if it is cold out. There is a little trail nearby for walking. We saw deer every morning.
Truly a quiet place to relax and only minutes to town.

Response from VrboOwner on Jan 16, 2024
Thank you so much for staying at our property! Next time your in Bend we would love to have you stay again!
Couple of 50 yr old high school buddies doing an annual ski trip. Wanted an upscale place with more privacy than a condo or house in a development would offer. The house was beautiful, comfortable and clean! When we arrived the hot tub was set to 104, perfect after a long day of travel. The grill was immaculately clean, and there were plenty of provisions not always found at many rentals (plenty of kitchen supplies, new sponge, non-perishable spices, etc). Even the cookware was very high quality, also in excellent condition. Those who rent often know what a difference this makes renting for days with the intention of eating in. We used the grill almost every day, as it was conveniently located right outside the kitchen under a covered deck. It snowed quite a bit while we were there, so we didnt hike much around the property, but even the limited weather visibility did not deter from the natural beauty of the land around the property, which was unencumbered from other homes. The firepit was well stocked with plenty of wood, but again, quite a bit of snow so we did not get a chance to use it. Hopefully next time, as we would absolutely rent this property again. Very open and spacious, with two bedrooms plus a master suite with an ensuite bath, and a pullout futon style sofa in a loft-like space upstairs, it is very roomy, and it heats up very quickly, which was nice after coming back from the mountain every day. Best place we have rented in years! Thank you for sharing it!
Lovely place with all amenities. Fully stocked kitchen and gorgeous views all around. We went on several hikes and had bbq at home. Hot tub at night under the stars.
This property was a magical place to spend the weekend with family. The view was amazing, sitting in the hot tub watching the sunset! High quality everything from the sheets to cookware to decor. We had trouble getting on with door code but host was immediately responsive and got us in shortly after. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay!!!
Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2026
About the host
Hosted by The Verhaalen's
A native Oregonian, I love everything outdoors. Camping, hiking, mountain biking, fishing, and just about anything you can do lakeside!
Why they chose this property
Our property is minutes away from everything Bend has to offer. There is a grocery store, mercantile, pub and salon all within walking distance but you feel like you are in your own secluded paradise. The only visitors wandering down the road are likely a deer family!
What makes this property unique
The mountain view from the expansive deck and patio for gathering around a fire pit make this home a perfect place to gather friends and family. The cozy interior of the home has lots of space for hanging out together or having a little quiet time on your own. When your ready to explore Bend it is minutes away.
