Historic Downtown Location │Heart of Bend │Walk Everywhere │Hot Tub │High Demand

Thank you so much for the nice note --- I also find that the historic downtown is pretty and appealing in so many ways...she has such heart. The fact that the Autumn Cottage is just one block from all Bend's goodies, and yet nestles on a quiet street with just 4 houses, makes her pretty perfect. Come back soon!

Thank you so much for the nice comments. Summer in Bend is indeed super...and we have the cruiser bikes out then too, to bop around town on. Hopefully we will see you then!!

We are so glad you enjoyed the cottage! We have never had ants in the house before but we’re told by an old farmer friend that when temps hit over 100 for several days in a row (unusual here in Bend) they seek water sources. Very happy to say we havent seen them since your stay, and fortunately we are running a bit cooler now. Thanks for letting us know!

Hi- Thanks for sharing! We enjoyed hearing that the cottage made your Bend-time even better --- that's what we go for. In the coming weeks we will be planting our flowers, doing our outside Spring cleaning, and putting out the bikes for the summer too --- it just keeps getting better! Have a great Summer and hope to see you back again soon for more Central Oregon fun!

Great to hear that you guys too, enjoyed my very favorite thing about the Autumn Cottage----getting to really EXPERIENCE Bend because of her wonderful location. Strolling to coffee, brew pubs, great dining, small shops, eclectic galleries and more.... You just have to love our historic downtown and her many treasures! Come back in warmer weather, hop on the cruiser bikes that we provide, and do it all over again!! Many thanks--- Lisa

Seamless is what we shoot for! This house speaks for itself though... you literally cannot beat the central location. It sounds like you took full advantage of it! See you next time.

The fun is in the details, that add to the charm... that add-up to a unique stay in Bend. SO glad you enjoyed them! Come home again soon!

I am so glad you enjoyed your time here in Bend at The Autumn Cottage! I am happy we were able to reunite you with your left items... as small owner operators, if we can provide ease and relief for our guests its ALWAYS worth it!

I appreciate the review of our actual home, The Autumn Cottage, and our service itself being so positive! I liked reading that a part of what you enjoyed was the great central, walkable relationship with our wonderful historic downtown. Those are the things that as a host, we have control over and what we work on diligently to deliver to our guests. However as with any, and nearly every, urban setting in America now we are also struggling with houseless people in Bend, especially with such a close downtown setting. Unfortunately, that is beyond my personal control. Luckily, our City Council is making these issues a priority and their dedication to Bend shows in their responses. I’m trying to do my part too and am hoping as a community we can reach some good solutions for all. For future Bend trips we do have less-central properties, further away from the downtown core area that may suit your family better. Thanks again

I appreciate the review of The Autumn Cottage. I am glad you think it is fantastic… we do too! This house does have a great central, walkable relationship with our wonderful historic downtown. Those are the things that as a host, we have control over and what we work on diligently to deliver to our guests. As with any, and nearly every, urban setting in America now we are also struggling with houseless people in Bend, especially with such a close downtown setting and during the summertime. Unfortunately, things that occur off property are beyond our personal control. Luckily, our City Council is making these issues a priority and their dedication to Bend shows in their responses. There is a camping code that makes it illegal to camp where you have mentioned in your review, and we are starting to work with the City of Bend on effective enforcement. We are trying to do our part and are hoping as a community we can reach some good solutions for all.

Hi Courtney- Loved that you lead with cute and clean and close to town --- we know the Autumn Cottage is a gem and feel that property is what you should honestly review. I’m assuming the three stars was your grade for a failing society as sadly Bend has been suffering from a growing houseless problem, along with the rest of our country. Our local leaders do a good job of trying to make our citizens aware that being homeless is not unlawful, and that all humans deserve dignity. The very small group you referred to are across the street and in a City owned parking lot over which we have no control, not on our sidewalk as you know. We honestly can say we have had absolutely no personal problems or safety issues at The Autumn Cottage in the 21 years we have been operating. We do consistently try to practice live and let live--- and patience. I am sorry you felt uncomfortable during your stay.
