About this property

Bright, spacious Bend home. Perfect basecamp for Central Oregon adventures!

Stay like a local in one of Bend’s best residential neighborhoods. Located in the Galveston district, the property is walking distance to all the restaurants and shops on Galveston, walking/biking distance to downtown, 3.5 miles to Phil's Trailhead (perfect warm-up distance), and enjoy quick access to the Cascade Lakes Highway for all your Mt. Bachelor and Cascade Lakes adventures.

This comfortable 4 bed, 2 bath house is equipped to accommodate the whole family, especially littles. Please request anything you might need to help lessen your load while traveling or something you might have forgotten! We have 2 fast growing kids, aged 8 and 2 and chances are, we have what you might need.

The house has a garage, but it is small, so it is better used as secure gear storage. As noted, we have an array of bikes that we can make available upon advance request: large male cruiser, medium women's e-bike, Burley trail-a-bike, a few kids bikes. That is good for meandering around the neighborhood, but if you plan on doing some serious biking here, Pine Mountain Sports is less than a mile away and can get you fully geared up to hit up Phil's or any of the other stellar trails in the area. Powder House is right across the street from Pine Mountain Sports and you can rent tubes or paddleboards to float the Deschutes River through town. Or you can rent right from Tumalo Creek Outfitters at the launch point at Riverbend Park.

For an easy adventure you will find Overturf Park, located at thetop of Elgin Ave., with a cute playground for the kiddos and the access trail to hike up and over Overturf Butte. The top provides stellar views of Pilot Butte to the east and on clear days you can see Tumalo Mountain and Mt. Bachelor to the west.

As a general rule, we do not allow pets due to owner allergies, but may consider some cases, so please send us a request for consideration. Pets without prior approval are subject to an additional $300 cleaning fee to cover deep cleaning of furniture and bedding.

We sincerely hope you stay at our rental property! Please reach out with any questions, we are happy to help.

Bend family wedding

The home was perfect for us. Really nice and very friendly environment. Couldn’t have been a better choice for our family. Home was central to everything we needed and most we could walk to. Thank you to our host for such a lovely home.

About the host

Hosted by Elise Wahl

Host profile image
Greetings prospective guests! My name is Elise and my partner Jake and I are the hosts of this property. I am originally from the northeast (Rhode Island) and Jake is from the southeast (Jax Beach, FL) but we have called Bend, Oregon home for almost a decade. I am a hospitality professional with a master's degree in tourism management from the University of Hawaii. Jake is an entrepreneur in renewable energy development. For us, Bend, Oregon is the perfect place to call home because we love snowboarding, mountain biking, rock climbing, skiing, backcountry touring and paddling various watercraft on the river. Plus, we are 'only' four hours drive to the coast (if you have lived further inland, you come to appreciate the 'short' drive.)

We love sharing this place we call home and are committed to providing our guests with a clean, comfortable, clutter-free place to stay.

Why they chose this property

We live in this same neighborhood (right around the corner) and just love living here. This is just a great place to be. Mature trees provide plenty of shade in the neighborhood, neighbors are friendly and kids can run around safely.

What makes this property unique

The Elgin house is the perfect location for a family stay in Bend, Oregon. The accessibility to Galveston, Skyliners, tons of parks, Downtown Bend, Newport Market, walking to El Sancho for dinner ... we could go on and on!
