Thank you, Sally! I'm so happy to hear you had a beautiful week in Bend and enjoyed the cozy home, walkable location, and great dining experiences. We'd love to host you (and your pup!) again in the future!
The property was super cute and just a few minutes walk from the river trail, and a ton of shops, cafes and restaurants. The house was clean and cute, the perfect get away for my spouse and I. We would stay here again!
