Bluebird Day - Riverside Cottage

QUINTESSENTIAL DOWNTOWN LOCATION! Our newly remodeled 1940’s cottage in the heart of Bend has everything you need for a perfect Central Oregon getaway! 

Experience the authentic Bend lifestyle when you wake up to sunshine and walk across the street to Drake Park and the idyllic Deschutes River. Stroll to downtown and enjoy one of the many great restaurants, breweries, galleries and shops. Walk across the bridge and the ultra-popular 10 Barrel Brewing Company, your starting point to the Bend Ale Trail, is a mere stroll away! Hop on a cruiser bike that we provide, and ride along the river to the Old Mill District to enjoy an IMAX movie, shopping, or riverside dining. 

World class bike trails, paddle boarding down the river, live outdoor concerts at Hayden Homes Amphitheater, and the winter shuttle to Mt. Bachelor are all right out your front door when you are our guests at the Riverside Cottage.

Relax on the wide front porch and watch the day go by - Bend style! Or, cozy up in front of the fireplace and watch TV. The open floor plan is ideal for families and friends!

Create a gourmet meal for the entire family in the fully stocked, newly remodeled kitchen. Enjoy your meal on the deck with friends, cook out on the huge gas grill, or relax in the salt system hot tub under a desert sky filled with stars.

Downstairs is designed for fun in the spaciously remodeled family room. Play a game of foosball, enjoy the comfort of the second fireplace, spread out with the whole family for  or take a quiet rest and enjoy a great selection of books for all ages from the library.

A third bedroom with a double and twin bed is also available downstairs. This is a great set up for multiple families with kids or groups of friends! The 1800 sq. ft. has a cozy cottage feel while providing room enough for everyone without feeling crowded.

This house is fully stocked with all the amenities you need for a one of a kind Bend vacation. All of the beds are super comfy with fresh clean duvets and high thread count linens. There is a washer and dryer, free wireless internet,  and cruiser bikes for you to explore Bend! 

We look forward to welcoming you as our guest at Riverside Cottage!

Relaxing week near Drake Park

Property is clean and sleeps 7 comfortably. The kitchen is well stocked and made it easy to cook dinner at home and eat at the large dining room table. Location makes it easy to walk to the park or downtown.

Great Ski Cabin In Downtown Bend

Perfect location close to restaurants, breweries, shopping and more. The ski resort (Mt Bachelor) is just a short drive away. The layout provide ample space for sleeping and relaxing while the kitchen was equipped with everything we needed.. The hot tub was a perfect way to end the day on the mountain. Thanks for sharing a piece of your winter wonderland!

Awesome home & location

The house was perfect for our family vacation - 5 people & our dog. And the location couldn’t be better… walking distance to so many restaurants, shops, and of course the river. We really appreciated the floats and bikes provided as well as the hot tub. This was one of the best homes I’ve ever rented!

Great house near the park

We really enjoyed our stay at the house. We stayed over Thanksgiving - the house was well-equipped for a making Thanksgiving dinner. We walked to Drake Park every day, and to Downtown for Black Friday shopping. We also did the "I Like Pie" run/walk (Bend's version of the turkey trot). So much fun! Thank you!

A beautiful May in Bend

A lovely house located by the river and Drake Park. An easy walk to downtown and all of our favorite breweries and restaurants. Check in was easy and the house was well appointed so it was easy to do some cooking at the house. I would look to returning here if I have Bend in mind for my next holiday.

Perfect location

This house was the perfect home base for our stay in Bend. We rode our bike from the house the Phils trailhead and on the way back from riding stopped by the amazing Sparrow bakery for an Ocean roll. We walked to town, both Old town and Old Mill for dinner each night and even got a day of skiing in, with the house being only 25 minutes from Bachelor! I can't say enough about the location, and the home itself was really comfortable and had everything we needed to enjoy our stay.

Sweet, lovely home that was perfect for our family and perfect for any family really. It’s close to EVERYTHING we hiked, played disc golf, shopped, ate delicious food downtown and cooked in. Perfect for a family game night and a super way to celebrate all being together. Exceptional! Thank you!

Amazing location for exploring on foot or bike

We only got in our car once on this whole vacation! We explored the downtown area with the bikes provided, walked to coffee shops, breweries, food carts, parks. House was well equipped with bikes for adults (BYO for kids) and tubes for floating the river. The basement was perfect for our 2 kids. Kitchen was fairly minimally equipped for cooking, but we didn’t bother with much food prep anyways because of close proximity to so many good places to eat.

Best location, great property

And best property management ever. (I’ve done vacation rentals 2-3 times a year since 2001 and this manager was the best) Problem with smoke detector, fixed in one hour. Problem with WiFi, fixed in a few hours. (Only problems we had and we stayed for almost two weeks). The property was perfect for our family of six adults. Comfortable and easy to hang out together. Walked to town, to restaurants, to coffee. Hot tub great. Kitchen/cooking easy and room for a few cooks and a few watchers. Quiet neighborhood. We plan to return next year.

Charming Cottage, Great Location

This lovely cottage is in a perfect location. Easy walks to breweries, coffee shops, artisan shops, and a walkway along the river. The host is amazingly responsive to requests. We had an issue with turning on the heat during an unusually chilly few days and after I sent an email, someone was at the house within 10 minutes. We had a 6 month old infant with us and no one in the downstairs bedrooms could her the 4 AM wake ups! I would definitely stay here again.
