We loved this little cottage — the location truly can’t be beat. Walking to the amphitheater or the Old Mill shops and restaurants only took about 10–15 minutes along the beautiful Deschutes River path. Drake Park was also close enough for an easy, relaxing walk.Inside, the house is cozy and has everything you need. The rooms are on the smaller side, but they worked perfectly fine for the four of us. Our fur babies were welcomed too, and the fenced yard gave them a safe place to explore.The hosts were kind, responsive, and helped us with a special request we had. I’ll absolutely be returning to this sweet little gem.

Quick bachelor getaway

A short visit during spring break with my college age sons. The owners were very responsive to my booking (within minutes) and gave us the property information well ahead of our arrival. The property was nicely located for walking to restaurants.

Great location - we parked and walked everywhere for the weekend! The house is small but really well equipped. The fenced in yard is lovely and would be great in the summer. The proximity to walking trails and parks was perfect!

Bend River Cottage is a charming cozy home in a great location. We parked the car and walked everywhere. The river walk is just a few steps away and there is so much delicious food available near the neighborhood. The yard is completely fenced in so our large and friendly pup was in heaven as the passers by stopped to scratch his ears. We would definitely stay here again!

Great cottage in convenient location

This was the perfect place for our family of three. It is in a cute neighborhood very close to the river, parks, stores, restaurants, coffee shops, pubs, etc. It was also spotlessly clean and the kitchen had all we needed - we only ate out once. Overall, a first-rate rental.

Bend River cottage

The location of this property was amazing , so close to all that Bend has to offer. Everything was walkable from the property and our 2 dogs loved the river which was very close. The only thing missing was some oven mitts and dishcloths otherwise the kitchen was very well stocked. Would definitely stay here again.

Great Location

This is the perfect starting point for everything that is fun in Bend!! Only downsides are bedrooms are very small and A/Cs are window units that aren’t very effective. We ended up having to repair one that had come apart.
