Delightful and close to town.

This is a very sweet and comfortable bungalow, with two bedrooms (queen bed in one, single with trundle in the other) connected by the bathroom. The kitchen is bright and very well-equipped. And we were pleasantly surprised to find a washer and dryer, making our trip easier to manage.The neighborhood is very quiet. It was a ten-minute walk to the excellent McMenamin pub. The banks of the nearby Deschutes River are chockablock with parks and walkways. Our stay was in early May, when the weather was pleasant, if sometimes a tad cool. It all encouraged pleasant walking.We will very definitely hope to stay here during our next visit to Bend.

Best in Fall, Spring or Summer.

Lovely house but very cold. I slept with a hat and gloves on every night. The tv had 3 remote controls with inaccurate, hand written instructions. In other seasons with a new tv it would be perfect. It has an excellent kitchen.

Great long weekend in Bend!

This house is a great little place! Our little family of 4 had everything we needed for a weekend getaway and we enjoyed being able to walk to restaurants, coffee shops and grocery stores and to quietly observe the family of 3 deer that slept on the front lawn at night! So cute!

Walking distance to town

This was a great little place with everything you need. The bathroom was in between the bedrooms which were sometimes locked and had to be accessed through the other room. This was fine for our family but may be weird with other situations.

What makes this property unique

This house is located is a quiet neighborhood so near the epicenter of Bend. The house itself is a modest but sturdy craftsman bungalow. My next favorite building is Timberline Lodge. I enjoy pine trees, fir trees, birds,, horses, dogs, quilts, craftsmanship and nature. The house also contains a Hudson's Bay Indian trading blanket, a Pendleton Blanket and a great book on collecting Indian blankets. I hope you enjoy the house and Bend.
