We had a wonderful stay in this home. Rick and Katie were very responsive and went out of their way for us. The home had everything we needed. Lots of room for us, our adult children and spouses and baby to each have our own space. Beautiful river view and in a great location. We hope to visit again sometime.

The house was very beautiful. Had difficulty understanding the directions for the the tv and sound system. The bed on the the main floor needs to checked often. that type of bed, when moved tends to loosen the center brackets. Lights that needs replaced should be noted by the cleaners. When we arrived the vacuum was left on the staircase, the refrigerator was not cleaned of drippings or working at capacity. My grandson's miik could not be held at proper temperature. My frozen dessert was not a hit. the screen to the deck on the main floor was left off the track. Having a TV on the bottom level for the entertainment would be great. A kit to check the PH level in the sauna is good. There was lots of bubbles and it was tripping. follow-up on your maintenance service. All soaps should be removed from the showers. No one wants ot use another persons personal items. The house was very dim at nights. The lamps could help with the brightness if you use a brighter bulb. garage area coul be better organized for your guests. wish the washer in the garage worked. It was an inconvenience to go into the master room. followup on your cleaners for quality of work. as I said the house is beautiful but those items above impacted the beauty and the price.

We had a fabulous time at the Bend River Retreat. Our two families were down for several days to attend a friend‘s wedding. This was truly a perfect retreat spot for our combined families and we were able to enjoy all that this beautiful home had to offer, including a beautiful river view. We enjoyed hanging out on the river, exploring Bend, hiking, hot tubbing, and so much more. Our hosts were gracious and great at communicating regarding check-in & check-out, and very prompt to answer any questions we had. We hope to plan another trip to Bend in the future and we’d definitely stay here again.

Great house, Great location!!

Everything in this home was as stated. Very well equipped in the kitchen. Very clean and big enough for everyone to be comfortable. The one thing we would have liked as we had an "old" Grandpa with us would have been a recliner in the living room this would have made him more comfortable as he sits and reads alot. We will come back as soon as we can!!!

Simply Outstanding!

Spent Thanksgiving week at this beautiful property and cannot express how thoroughly impressed we all were with the location and amenities provided. The home itself is stunning - a true testament to the vision of the owner, and every detail executed to perfection. From a guest perspective, there's isn't anything that was missed. The kitchen is beyond belief - with a 6 burner gas cooktop and huge kitchen island. Every appliance and kitchen gadget you'd ever hope to have is also provided. From colanders to a Kuerig, and everything in between. I brought quite a few of my own things from home, and it wasn't necessary. Hand mixer, pastry brush, pizza cutter, large mixing bowls, measuring cups (glass and plastic) measuring spoons, an excellent cook's knife set, toaster, blender, plenty of dishtowels and pot holders, serving utensils, flatware, dishes, coffee mugs, wine glasses, champagne flutes, the list is endless. There isn't anything you need, and what's provided is even more than what most homes would have! There are two bedrooms on the upper level, the master is gigantic with a huge bathroom (double sinks) and a separate shower (walk-in, fabulous water pressure!) and Jacuzzi garden tub. The closet is enormous - as big as a bedroom, and there is a full size washer/dryer as well. The second upper level bedroom is quite large, with it's own large bathroom. Soap, shampoo, towels, washcloths, toilet paper and Kleenex are provided in abundance! The main level bedroom is right off the entry-door, and has glass French doors. The doors are covered in curtains for privacy. The main level bathroom is a full bath, with a shower/tub combo and the coolest bathroom sink we've ever seen! The lower level offers two bedrooms and two full baths, along with a movie room, full size pool table and 2 full size arcade games. Every amenity needed is provided. Main level floors are water heated concrete, and the entire home is comfortable and inviting. Huge bonus, even with 5 adults showering, we never ran out of hot water! The view is spectacular, with decks/patios off of each level so you can hear the river. The double car garage was a wonderful treat - we were able to park both cars inside, away from the elements. Oh, there is a 2nd refrigerator and a stack washer/dryer in the garage, also! This home is beyond amazing, and I can't thank Rick enough for making it available to us. We will definitely be back!

Impressive view in a lovely home

Need a house for a large group in a quiet neighborhood not far from downtown? Look no further than this house which had high end touches and an amazing view. I was impressed with the look and functionality of the house as well as how well appointed it was. You could find most anything you needed in the kitchen and the pantry. All bedrooms were lovely and the added touches of a game room and movie theatre were awesome! I loved being able to wake up with my large group of adults where we could choose to hang out together or have our own space. The Master Bedroom is especially impressive from the large room, bathroom, closet and deck. This house is a must rent for a larger group!

What a Gem!!

This well stocked riverfront home is absolutely stunning. Rick was very accommodating during the reservation process and we never encountered any maintenance issues during our stay. The location is perfect! Close to town yet when you're there, it feels like an outdoor retreat! The house has a beautiful open floor plan which was perfect for our large family and out of town guests. The kitchen has everything a person needs and can accommodate a lot of cooks! The big dining table is perfect for game night and anything else! The weather was beautiful for our stay and the outdoor decks were perfect for relaxing. The amenities make this home so much fun to stay at. A little disappointed we didn't have time to enjoy that amazing theater room, but if we ever find ourselves in Bend again, this will be the first place we try to reserve. Clean, Comfortable, Convenient, and Pet Friendly! Love Love Love this home.
