A perfect Bend weekend
This little Bend cottage is the cutest, coziest vacation rental ever! My husband and I enjoyed a relaxing weekend without our kids and the cottage was the perfect place to unwind. Within walking or biking distance to countless shops, restaurants, and cafe, we were able to explore downtown Bend without having to get in our car much. Somehow the cottage still manages to be quiet and serene with its incredibly convenient location. Long story short, 10/10 would recommend. Can't wait to come back to this one.

Very cute and clean, good amenities
I was very impressed with how clean the property was. The amenities were also great: the water pressure was fantastic, the sheets and towels seemed newer and were very soft, the kitchen was stocked with essentials, and the TV was easy to figure out. The house was very charming and had great character! The location was also great for us, as we were able to walk to our favorite places to eat in Bend. I will definitely try to stay in this same house again for future trips!

Wouldn’t change a thing
Great location! Walking distance to grocery store and restaurants. Took the cruisers out to dinner one evening, probably should have considered there were no lights or reflectors on the bikes, but the locals on four wheels are good at looking out for for unsophisticated vacationers in Bend. Spork was recommended by several locals and it did not disappoint, yum! We had the opportunity to hike multiple trails every day, too many to list, but there are trails for all abilities. The property was clean, well maintained and well stocked. We didn’t want for anything.

Cute, comfy house in great location!
We enjoyed this beautiful house. Very clean, well stocked and in a nice quiet neighborhood, walking distance to a great market and several restaurants. Bend and the area around it has a lot to see and do. The house also has a private backyard with picnic table for warmer weather. Would happily stay again.
