We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful home! The space was spotless, stylishly decorated, and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The location was perfect — close to everything but still quiet and relaxing. We walked right off the river to the house after our float, walked downtown to happy hour, then walked to and from our concert at Hayden Homes Amphitheater (10-15!min walk). The attention to detail in the design and amenities really stood out. We’d absolutely recommend this place and would love to come back!

Wonderful location, next to Drake Park and close to downtown. Very clean, kitchen well stocked and lots of towels provided. The courtyard patio was a wonderful place to enjoy happy hour on a warm fall afternoon. Looking forward to reserving for our next visit.

Much more than we expected

We had the best time in Bend,OR and the Drake cottage offered much more than we expected. The inside was cozy yet modern with lots of cool vibes. Bed was comfy, shower was amazing, and the hot tub was perfect. We did lots of hiking and skiied at Mt. Batchelor, so the hot tub was the perfect ending to our day. They even had a washer and dryer for use in the garage. Everything was situated perfectly. This was one of the best places we have stayed.

Lovely "cottage" in the heart of Bend

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the cottage in the heart of Bend. The location was perfect for walking - to Drake Park, downtown to shops and restaurants, and across the river to brew pubs. Everything was clean and fresh and the decor was fun. The private patio area and garage was a bonus. Thanks!

About the host

Hosted by Laura Gibson

Host profile image
Love brought me to Bend in 1988. 25+ years later I am still in love (with my husband) as well as this remarkable town and surroundings. Originally from Pittsburgh, PA (Go Steelers!) I came west to go to school (UCLA) and made new roots in the Pacific Northwest. Work takes me frequently to LA where I work with kids with cleft lip and palates, creating smiles. Locally, I run a clinic where my patients volunteer in the community to help pay for their orthodontic treatment. Smile! Central Oregon is were you will find me when I am in town and not enjoying this area as I am sure you will.

Why they chose this property

Good fortune and fate found this property for me. The previous owner of this gem was headed off to the Caribbean. Having invested 40 years to restoring this historic property, we are so grateful he entrusted us with its stewardship. Listed in the National Historical Register, the main house served as the first maternity hospital in this region from 1919-1934. It was converted into apartments and the basement unit served as the dance studio where Tommy taught ballroom dance with his partner Barb for many years. Most ballroom dancers here in Central Oregon benefited from Tommy and Barb's love of dance and weekly lessons at the Elk's Club.

What makes this property unique

I fell in love with this property the moment I stepped inside. It had been restored with such care and attention to detail. I furnished it with all the things I would want in a home: comfortable beds, great pots and pans, big screen TV, and internet access for work and entertainment. Patio dining with a gas grill when you want to stay put for the evening. Enjoy the amazing night sky while keeping warm around the fire pit.
