It was a lovely place to stay. We did notice no matter how high the heat was up. It was freezing cold in there. We had to sleep with our coats on. And there’s no garbage can in the kitchen. I thought was odd. And for some reason, you might want to take note that when you’re showering, you’re standing in water to the ankle. And the porch light is burnt out other than that we loved it there. Thank you for letting us stay. It’s quite lovely there.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review! There is ductless heating and cooling in this house... one unit that both heats and cools. We found that it was set to "cool" when you departed, which means no matter how high you run up the temperature, the cool setting will not heat. It can be tricky, but we do leave detailed instructions in the Welcome Binder. The garbage in the kitchen is in the corner cabinet in the kitchen, as there is an entire garbage/recycling center there. I am sorry we did not hear form you during your visit so I could explain these easy fixes... The best part about me being a Bend local is that I am always just a phone call away! I am glad you enjoyed your time here in Bend.
This was a great stay. We (couple) and our pup loved the house, backyard and location. Nice and easy walk to DT over the pedestrian bridge. Excellent restaurants and food trucks nearby. Look forward to returning soon!
This bungalow was perfect for my husband and I, along with our two dogs. Cozy little place, awesome hot tub, good host, and it was in a great location. We were able to walk to just about everything! We will definitely be staying here again!
My partner and I and our dog loved our stay here. The place is very cute, great kitchen and backyard. Location is incredible, walked to get breakfast and dinner most days, hardly needed our car. For two people it was exactly what we were looking for.
The house was very cute and more importantly spacious. Very comfortable bed. Amazing location if you want to walk around, downtown and the park are so close. Great host.
Cute bungalow within walking distance to several great restaurants, and a lovely walk through Drake Park to Downtown Bend and more restaurants. It had everything you will need for 2 people. The kitchen was spacious and well stocked with cookware. We will stay there again next time we are in Bend.
We loved our stay at this property. The house is even better in person. It is well appointed and private. It is in a very charming neighborhood with tons of food and drink options just a block or two away. We really enjoyed walking along the river into town. I would definitely recommend!
This house was great. We were visiting Bend for a concert and needed to bring our two dogs with us. The house is well-appointed and has a fenced yard. It’s in easy walking distance—one mile or less—from many parks, the amphitheater, and downtown. The house was very clean and comfortable and had wonderful outdoor spaces. The neighborhood is quiet and peaceful. Lots of great restaurants and food carts in walking distance. Easy check-in and checkout process.
Great location! Walked to old town, Old Mill District, and various food destinations! Never had to drive.

Stay at the "Drake"!
My wife, dog and I very much enjoyed your lovely home. It was perfect for us, very clean and comfortable and everything that we needed for our trip. The location, fenced in yard, amenities and off street parking were excellent.It was very quiet and we slept well. We would like to come back in the fall and plan to stay at the "Drake"!

Can't go wrong here...
This was our first visit to Bend and it did not disappoint. The Drake West Bungalow is in a perfect location. Central to everything. We really enjoyed walking into town and exploring the areas around us.
The place was everything we needed and more. Can't wait to go back.

First time Bend visitors... YAY! Thank you for letting us introduce you to our amazing little city. I am glad you got to enjoy the wonderful location of this home and fall in love with the place we love. We'll see you next time!
Perfect location! Super cute house with a great backyard to hang out. Comfy bed, great living room, well equipped kitchen. Hot tub and air conditioning were amazing! Awesome neighborhood close to the river and all restaurants. Dog parks galore! We will def be back! Thank you Erin!
This place is very conveniently located in an area with shops and restaurants. It is walkable to all the main attractions in the town of Bend. The yard is great for pets and relaxing outdoors. The furnishings are comfortable but nothing fancy. At the time of our visit the pull cords for the fans was broken and could not be turned off. The toilet handle is in need of some help too. Otherwise this place is perfect.

Walking distance to everything!
Great little place to stay for a long weekend, perfect for a couple. House was well appointed, clean when we arrived. It is an older home with character, tub and shower are a bit funky, but just fine. Read through the check out instructions, you have to wash your towels and have them dried or drying prior to your departure, glad we read through that in advance.

It's always great to get a jump-start on the laundry for our housekeeper! Thank you for being attentive to our check-out procedures and do come stay with us again!
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. This home is very nice and accommodated us as a couple and our two pups. Backyard is a highlight with a covered gazebo on the patio, nice flush grass, fully fenced, jacuzzi. House is perfect for a couple, nice kitchen, living room, and nice king size bed. Quiet neighborhood but two blocks to food truck lot, restaurants, two great breweries Needed to call owner/manager once for a simple question, and she picked right up on a Sunday. We'll be back.
The house is great for all kinds of activities and walking into Bend. Lots of space to spread out and a lovely patio. This is the second time we've stayed in the house. Unfortunately, this time the kitchen was not clean. Dishes had been put away dirty (soap still in the dishwasher holder so it had just not been run) , the shelves covered in a deep layer of dust and "rings" on the counter. The prior dog had clearly been up on the outdoor furniture as it was covered in dog fur.

About the host
Hosted by Erin Woods
My husband and I have been managing and renting vacation homes here in our hometown of Bend, Oregon for over 17 years with our business, Home Spun LLC, and we love what we do! All the vacation homes in our Home Spun LLC exclusive collection provide distinctive alternatives to traditional lodging in Central Oregon. Our places provide a one-of-a-kind experience by offering amazing downtown locations, top of the line amenities, and personal service. We are picky about which homes we represent. Each home has been handpicked so our guests can experience an inviting and unique vacation with privacy, scenic surroundings, recreational opportunities just moments away, and the amazing city of Bend at your feet.
Why they chose this property
All of the vacation homes we manage are located in the Galveston Avenue District or Historic Downtown Bend area. We love that our guests can park their car and explore all the best parts of our city on foot or by bike, getting a real chance to explore and fall in love with our sweet little city.
What makes this property unique
This house is over 100 years old and we love the historic features and feel of it, paired with modern amenities. My favorite hidden treasure: the little wire bunny rabbit that sits on the kitchen shelf to this day. It was fashioned out of old wire during a lunchbreak and hidden in the walls by the original builders of the home. It stayed there for 90 years prior to a drywall remodel when it was discovered with some old newspapers that had been used for insulation and an early 1900's bottle cap.
