Summary: A short visit during spring break with my college age sons. The owners were very responsive to my booking (within minutes) and gave us the property information well ahead of our arrival. The property was nicely located for walking to restaurants.

Summary: This is a darling little cottage to stay in in a historic part of Bend. We stayed for 6 nights. It is perfect for 3-4 people. As it is small (640 sq. feet) I would not use it for more than 4 people as it would feel a little cramped. The cottage had all we needed. Lots of pots and pans, dishes, washing machine, dishwasher, coffee maker with coffee and grill (which we did not use). Our dog was welcomed which allowed us to bring our 9 year old lab who is very attached to us. I do not ski but my family does...so they took the car and I was able to walk everywhere with the dog. Everything I needed was a 10-15 minute walk. The old Mill district, downtown and the riverfront. There are great shops, restaurants, cafes etc. I walked along the river every day.The only item missing was bath soap. The bar provided was tiny and more of a hand soap bar. That was quickly rectified as the cleaning person showed up by accident and when I mentioned it, she came back with bath gel and soap just a little while later. The hosts could not have been more responsive and helpful. Its a good place to any time of year.
