About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Fantastic Location! Directly above river w/a 5 minute walk to downtown.

This one-of-a-kind home on a tucked-away street has a location that can't be beat -- a stone's throw from the First Street Rapids Park, an easy walk to downtown, and quick access to the Bend Parkway.

With a warm and friendly vibe, the newly remodeled property has two bedrooms and two baths, sleeping up to four guests. The main floor includes a welcoming entry, cozy living room, laundry/storage room, a bedroom, bathroom, and the all-new sunny and bright kitchen -- a welcoming, well-equipped space. A large pantry/closet, right off the kitchen, has space for storing coolers, picnic supplies, food items and more. Upstairs, the master suite -- with bedroom, bath and balcony -- provides its own little getaway, and a peekaboo view of the river.

The front yard, just outside the kitchen door, provides an inviting space to gather, dine, enjoy a drink or relax with a book. From here you can see, hear and feel the Deschutes river as it makes its way through town. There are also a couple great swimming holes with large rocks to kick back only seconds away. Around the side of the house you will find another, more secluded, patio space.

Walk down the steps at the end of the street to the First Street Rapids Park. Cast your fishing line into the river from a large boulder at river's edge. Turn right on the path and take the footbridge that crosses over the river to the Aubrey Butte River Trail. Turn in the opposite direction along the river path and walk to downtown Bend -- just a short walk away!

To venture beyond downtown, take the parkway just outside the neighborhood, to numerous points of interest in town and beyond -- Mt Bachelor Ski Resort, fabulous mountain lakes, hiking and biking trails, beautiful golf courses and many more of the attractions that make Bend such a popular destination.

This is our second stay at this property, and we will be making more here in the future! The location is perfect as it's near the Hwy, downtown, and the trails along the river. We love the layout of the home...especially the well-appointed kitchen, the roominess of the master bedroom and the laundry room which is large enough to store gear, and the quiet location. Thanks again to our hosts for putting such thoughtfulness into providing amenities to make us more comfortable and to feel so welcomed!

What a great location with easy access to the river and a path along the river to reach downtown. Very well appointed with so many helpful touches inside that made it feel like home. The local roasted coffee was exceptional, thank you. Super clean with everything functional, very well maintained, and looked new. Great, responsive, and helpful communications via the app. No issues with our stay. We'll be back!
