The house was a beautiful waterfront property and had all of the amenities. Paddleboards were available to float on the river. It was a 5 minute walk to downtown Bend for dinner and shopping.The only glitch was the cleaners had not cleaned the house or made beds before we arrived, but the host Emily was on top of it and the cleaners came and did their job.I highly recommend this rental property!

Relaxing by Mirror Pond

We had a special weekend with all the ladies in the family (8). The house is in a quiet neighborhood. Easily walked to shops and dining, live music within minutes and Old Mill District. Love the access to the water and paddle boards. Kitchen was very well equipped. Looking forward to booking again.

We thoroughly enjoyed another family get-away on Mirror Pond. The house is so well equipped. We love the water sport "toys" that we can launch right from the house. Downtown Bend is right across the bridge. Emily, the owner, is very responsive and communicates well. I highly recommend this house.

Ideal location, amazing home

Stayed here with my partner, 3-4 year old, a friend, his partner, and their 6 year old and we all had a wonderful time; location cannot be beat - right on mirror pond, 5 minute walk to Bend Brewing and the rest of downtown, SUP from the backyard, minutes to the riverfront trail and Drake Park, etc. House itself was great, too - clean, spacious, well laid out. Emily was an awesome host, too, super responsive and always there if you needed anything. Can't wait to return!

Beautiful Views!

This property is perfectly situated on the river and close to downtown. Couldn't ask for a better spot. There was a little issue with the furnace the first night but Emily quickly got a repairman out to assess the situation and ordered space heaters for us. I would definitely stay here afain!

Ladies Weekend

This was a wonderful weekend stay with friends. We enjoyed the beautiful house by cooking in the amazing kitchen with a view of the river, played games in the dinning room, and then walked downtown for shopping, drinks, and fun. I would love to book again in the spring / summer to use all the wonderful water toys they have. The host is extremely responsive and kind. I definitely recommend staying here.
