DOWNTOWN RIVERFRONT HOME WITH RIVER ACCESS, BEST LOCATION, 2 PRIMARY BDRMS

Host was welcoming but there were no extra paper towels and we had to go out to get them (they delivered more the next day).

We had a great stay in Bend. The location of the home was awesome and the home itself was nice though some changes need to be addressed. The sheets and towels were musty smelling and the throw rugs are falling apart, need replacing. The beds were comfortable. The vacuum needs upgrading. This is a pet friendly place so need a vacuum that will pick up the dog hair! Other than that it was awesome and Kelli was an excellent host!! Would love to come back!!

very comfortable! We really enjoyed our stay and the view was outstanding.

seThe location was superb, with the river, pond and park right there. The road was so close, but there was no annoying traffic noise. Parking was a bit difficult for more than 2 vehicles. Two things could be improved - the lighting was basically overhead and glaring. Several dimmers and a bigger wattage in the lamps would help. Also the height of all steps to outside was too much forelderly people like myself (91), but would love to have owned it in my youth.

Great location…walk to town and park across the street. Very peaceful sitting on the river. House is very well appointed - everything was there when we decided to cook.

This was our 4th year at this house. We love it. It’s on the water and family friendly. Kelli is always a perfect host. I’d say the only drawback is the busy street but everything else out weighs the noise that thankfully lessens in the night

Our family get together could not have been better. Kelli’s home is the absolute best location to experience old town Bend. We walked to everything. The home was spacious, kitchen was well stocked. The back yard on the river was fantastic. Never a dull moment watching the wildlife and people float by. We have visited Bend many times but this location can’t be topped.

Fantastic house. Stocked with everthing you need. Right on the river and walk to town.

I had my four siblings come and stay with her spouses and it could not have gone over better. I was worried about the noise and the chaos of the location, but the nights were quiet and mornings were blissful. My sister is gonna recommend this to a friend so if you could reach out to me and tell me how I can do that effectively that would be great. Also, I would like to potentially use the same location two years from now when my son‘s graduate from high school. Same time of year.

We really enjoyed staying at your beautiful house. We were so comfortable and there were plenty of towels, blankets and the such. It was too cold to use the river but the location couldn't have been better anyway. We found fun and adventure in every direction. Thank you so much. We would definitely come back in the summer.

It was the perfect house for our family. Everyone was very comfortable. We truly enjoyed the river right outside our door. We walked to town and on all of the paths in town. Very enjoyable!

Very east location for walking to local bars and restaurants. Easy drive to the mountain. Great to be right on the river.

Great amenities (paddle boards and kayaks) and location right on the river. Across from park. Walking distance to town and many restaurants.

This is a lovely house directly on the river with four spacious bedrooms. Our multigenerational family have stayed there twice and would eagerly book it again. The owner is incredibly responsive and gracious. It's a 10 minute walk along the river through beautiful Drake Park into town. I highly recommend this property.

Great location if you like to walk everywhere. Walked to a concert, downtown, restaurants and parks. Well maintained and comfortable. We will come again!

Easy access to the river and provided floaties, paddle boards and kayaks was the best part of this house.The central location allows for easy walking along the park trails and to the downtown area where there are many restaurants and shops.There is a lot to do in the area.Garage parking is definitely a bonus; maybe if you have two small cars they would both fit.One additional car would have to go sideways on the driveway. Street parking is not available.The street is busy and can be noisy.People park on this corner to load/unload to access the river at Drake Park across the street.There were homeless people hanging out on one side of the house by the river's edge for the first 2 days we were there.Kitchen and main living areas are spacious and comfortable and had everything we needed.Unfortunately the house overall can use a lot of TLC and deep cleaning. The outdoor furnitures were dirty so we didn't use them.A mouse ran out of the BBQ cabinet when we opened it.Lots of garage and window cobwebs/dust. Mold in bathrooms, carpet stains, slow draining tubs.We cleaned the living room window sills, kitchen drawer crumbs/debris, washing machine rubber gasket and fridge water dispenser drain before use.Bedding and towels didn't smell fresh and need updating.Sliding glass doors and some windows didn't have screens.Side gate on riverside of house was wonky and wooden slats fell out when we opened it.Shed where floaties are kept was a mess and dusty.For the price we expected a lot more.

As other reviews said, there is a considerable amount of street noise at this location. However it’s a great location to walk to downtown Bend, great food trucks that we frequented and lots of coffee shops and breweries. And yes the Deschutes River is “a step away” from house. Fun to see people on floats, kayaks, paddle boards pass by. It was fun to see your family wave at you from the back patio when you’re the last one in the family to float down the river. We had a good time. And happy we had this experience. Host is excellent!

This was our 3rd time staying here, and it has been perfect every time. The check in, the house , and the location are great. The wear is becoming obvious but it is still a perfect choice
