Step into a piece of Bend history at the Hawthorne House — a beautifully renovated 1930s cottage with a modern twist, tucked into the heart of downtown Bend just two blocks from shops, breweries, restaurants, and Drake Park. Built in 1930 and home to local Bend families for over 57 years, this 732 sq. ft. cottage later became the legendary graphic design studio of "Design of the Times" by Ed Carson, creator of the iconic Deschutes Brewery artwork and the Cascade Cycling Classic branding and artwork. Several of Ed's original pieces hang proudly throughout the home, giving guests a truly one-of-a-kind connection to Bend's creative heritage.
The charm and history don't stop at the front door — stroll to Drake Park and the Deschutes River, grab a craft beer at one of Bend's legendary breweries, bike to Phil's Trailhead for world-class singletrack, or drive up to Mt. Bachelor for a powder day. Bend's best is right outside your door.
