I wish we could have stayed longer! We stayed with our three kids, ages 3, 6, and 9. It was the perfect space to hang out outside in the mornings, and walk downtown - both directions! We walked to dinner and ice cream the first night, then several walks in the morning, and over Whitewater park And a playground for the kids! Perfect location for hanging out in bend! Kitchen seemed to have everything we might need!

Great place

Great location, walking distance to shops and restaurants. Was very clean and had a well equipped kitchen as we made breakfast everyday. Loved that the rooms all had king size beds and even though there is only one bathroom, it wasn’t a drawback.
