2 Br Private Vacation Home Vacation Rental In Bend, Oregon

Welcome to one of the most beloved and truly unique vacation rentals in Bend, Oregon — a luxury, pet-friendly cottage located right on the Deschutes River between the Old Mill and Downtown Bend. Offering unmatched river access, walkability, and amenities for all seasons, our home has been a guest favorite since 2010.

Whether you're here for summer paddleboarding, spring skiing, brewery hopping, or simply relaxing by the water with a glass of wine, you'll find everything you need (and more) for a perfect stay in Central Oregon.

Unbeatable Riverfront Location in the Heart of Bend
This is not your typical vacation rental. Our property sits directly on the Deschutes River, with French doors that open onto a large Trex deck and a fully fenced backyard that leads right to the water. From your backyard, you can:

Swim, float, kayak, or paddleboard (gear provided!)

Watch surfers ride the man-made surf wave just up the river

Launch your float and return via Bend's safe passage float route — one of the few homes where you can float round-trip right from your yard

Fish or birdwatch (osprey, eagles, ducks, and geese are frequent visitors)

Roast s’mores around the riverside fire pit with wood and a s’mores kit included

We’re one of the only vacation rentals in Bend that offers direct riverfront access and the ability to float to and from your own backyard.

Walk to Everything – No Car Needed!
Once you arrive, you may not need your car again. We’re perfectly situated between the Old Mill District and Downtown Bend, with Galveston Avenue just minutes away by foot. Walk to:

10 Barrel Brewing Co., Sunriver Brewing, El Sancho, BOSA, and Ariana’s

Local parks like Columbia Park and Miller’s Landing

Old Mill shops and restaurants like REI, Pastini, Anthony’s, Regal Cinemas, Ben & Jerry’s, and Lululemon

The Deschutes River Trail, outdoor concert venues, and art walks

With everything so close, many of our guests tell us they don’t drive once during their stay.
