Chukar's Nest is located only six blocks from the Old Mill District, Deschutes River, Riverbend & Farewell Bend parks. It's also walking distance to the Hayden Homes Amphitheater. Our 1-level, 1459 SF custom home was built in 2005 and offers a great room floorplan, hardwood floors throughout, living room w/ gas fireplace, dining room w/ seating for 6, and a fully stocked kitchen w/ island seating & stainless appliances.

The home has a 2-car garage which fits a mid-sized car and is available for the storage of your outdoor equipment during your stay. To be respectful of our neighbors, we do not allow parking of RVs, trailers, or boats anywhere on the property.

During the summer when there are concerts at the Hayden Homes Amphitheater, the music may carry to the neighborhood. Didn't buy tickets but want to hear the concert a little closer to the venue? A few blocks from the house is a park-like grassy bluff on the west side of SW Chamberlain Street, between SW McKinley and SW Roosevelt, which overlooks the amphitheater. Take a blanket or chair, a picnic and enjoy the music. If you have binoculars, you can watch the jumbotron:)

PLEASE NOTE: The number of bedrooms and bed sizes accommodate six adults comfortably - THIS IS OUR MAXIMUM ADULT OCCUPANCY. Host kindly asks the guest who books, to not include the couch or an additional mattress (brought by the guest) to be used to accommodate their group of six.
