Perks for the Parents

This recently renovated 1920s bungalow in Bend, Oregon features a hot tub, a contemporary kitchen diner and fun children’s bedrooms. It sleeps 5 + 1. This cozy residence on Bend's coveted Westside is home to 2 young children, so it’s well-equipped for a family stay. There’s a dedicated children's bathroom with two sinks, a toilet and a tiled shower so parents can have their own private bathroom sanctuary. This home is in a great spot for exploring the Bend neighborhood, visiting Mt Bachelor for skiing and winter sports (30 minutes away), or trying out water sports on the surrounding rivers and lakes.

Why Kids Love it

The house has plenty of baby and toddler essentials, including: a changing table, crib, children’s utensils and a toddler high chair (plus bench seating at the dining table - perfect for fidgeting toddlers!). A baby high chair and baby bath can be provided on request - note that there is no bathtub but there are 2 large showers. The single bed in the kids room is low to the ground - suitable for ages 3 and up. There are plenty of toys to play with for kids aged 10 and under, as well as games, a large garden for kids to run and play, and even a swing set in the front yard. Older kids and teens can explore downtown Bend, which has an indoor swimming pool, plenty of waterfront parks, water sports on the river and a skate park.

Things to Know

Minimum stay: 30 days, pricing is per month, including utilities, a mid-stay cleaning, taxes and fees. The hosts are happy to accept longer bookings for families who want to stay for the whole summer. Safety notes: the property has a hot tub with a secure and very heavy cover. It is set to a temperature that is safe for children with adult supervision. The entire yard is fenced in. The fireplace has a screen. Parking is available for 2 cars on the driveway - car rental is recommended. The house has a mud room with a washer/dryer and plenty of room for bikes and other outdoor equipment.

About the Location

The house is located on a corner plot, walking distance to downtown Bend in Oregon. It’s an easy walk to Mirror Pond (where you can hire kayaks or explore riverfront parks) and the restaurants on Newport Ave. You can also easily walk, drive or ride bikes to the Deschutes River and the Bend Whitewater Park, which has a kid-friendly beach. It’s 5 minutes’ walk to Hillside Parks and 10 minutes to First Street Rapids Park. Downtown Bend has a range of great restaurants, a farmers market and bike hire shops. Redmond Municipal Airport is just 30 minutes’ drive; Portland International Airport is 3.5 hours away.

Accommodation Details

This residence has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, set over 1 floor. There’s a large open plan kitchen with a Big Chill stove and range, a dining area and a living room with a fireplace and double sofa bed. The primary bedroom has a kingsize bed, a desk and Herman Miller Aeron chair, a flatscreen TV and an adjoining bathroom with an oversized shower, double sinks and a walk-in closet. There is a children's bedroom with a single bed suitable for ages 3 and up. A third bedroom has a crib and a changing table, but it can be fitted with a queensize bed on request. Outside there is a large patio and a fenced-in wraparound yard. While relaxing on the covered porch at dusk, you might see deer wandering past!

Style Notes

Contemporary cabin. The house is modern with some rustic, mountain touches to create a welcoming and relaxing feel. The kitchen has white subway tiles and a bright white Big Chill stove - the perfect complement to the chunky wood furnishings. There are locally-made wood paneled doors on bathrooms and bedrooms, as well as cozy Pendleton blankets and colorful works of art. We love the multiple windows in the boot room, the industrial-style bar stools at the breakfast bar and the unique exterior brickwork framing the charming step-up porch.

Bend, Oregon

The sunny mountain town

With 300 plus days of sunshine per year, along with an excess of outdoor activities for kids, there’s plenty to recommend Bend. Listed as one of the 52 places to see in the world by The New York Times Travel section in 2015, it is close to ski resorts and lakes ideal for tubing, kayaking, swimming and fishing. Treat dad to a trip to a local microbrewery (they are kid-friendly too) and don’t miss the High Desert Museum, where you can meet the local wildlife.
