Beautiful location
While the house was in a beautiful location on the Deschutes, I'm not sure our group of 11 adults (who have rented large, premium Sunriver homes for 30+ years) would return. This was our first time renting from AvantStay through VRBO and we were surprised by the high dog fees. Also it is good to note about this house: 1) that while the house sleeps 12, the main dining table is small and seats 6, though there are additional chairs upstairs in the second kitchen. We brought a foldable table with chairs, so everyone could sit together. 2) The middle bedroom queen mattress is on a frame ~6" off the floor, which might not work for some guests. 3) Bring your own firewood and starter. 4) The WiFi kept dropping which was especially frustrating for those who had to work. 5) The hall toilet had continued to leak and is being replaced. We appreciated our local host, Steven, who was great to provide quick help, and Ryan for maintenance. 6) There are no walking paths nearby, but Sunriver is nearby to drive; the kitchen is very well-equipped;and the hot tub is lovely.

Large house, great river front location w/ dock
Great house for the money, as advertised. Lots of room for large families (incl 2 separate living rooms and 2 separate kitchens) and well equipped with basics. Terrific river front location with shared private dock access for boating / floating / kayaking 2 paddle boarding on the Deschuttes river. Dog friendly too, which was key for our doodle. While outside of Sunriver resort and homeowners area, it is still very close (4 mins by car, 12 mins biking to Sunriver village). While you do not get Sunriver resort or Sunriver Homeowner Association privileges with this house per se, you can still access the 2 public golf courses and pay access fee for tennis courts and pickel ball courts if desired through Sunriver. Sunriver biking trails accessible after riding on about 1 mile of streets. Great location to base your central Oregon activity and outings from … house actually bigger than pictures implied. Avantstay mgmt team does nice job with rental execution.

Beyond our expectations
The images don't really do justice to the home in the listing. It's much larger than it looks in the pictures and a beautiful home. The appliances are very high quality. The house comes with a number of games and activities, I didn't look through the board games but got a lot of use out of the foosball table which is not of the highest quality but does the trick for casual fun with the family. The dock out back is shared with the neighbor and provides direct access to the Deschutes river. We acquired some rafts and a kayak and made great use of this. The location is fantastic. It's a short drive to the Sunriver village which offers tons of activities for the family. It's also not far from any number of outdoor adventures. When we arrived, the refrigerator had a bad odor and there was a sticky fluid in the lower drawer. There was also garbage under one of the beds. Otherwise, the house was clean and fully equipped with appliances and everything we needed to have a place to rest between adventures. One of the property managers stopped by during our stay to introduce himself. Cameron was very friendly and seemed genuinely concerned about our problem with the refrigerator. Overall, the experience exceeded our expectations.
