Bend Stay

My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Galveston Getaway in Bend. The location was perfect as we were able to walk to restaurants and breweries. The house was very clean and had every amenity we needed. The owner was very helpful when I needed help with entry.

Winter Wonderland!

My family had a great holiday stay in Bend. The house is perfect; roomy, comfortable, had everything we needed. Amazing restaurants, dining, coffee shops within blocks (easy walking). 20 minute walk to the river and downtown. Light snow every night, leaving a blanket of white each morning. We will absolutely return, thank you!

A few days in Bend

This well-appointed cottage was the perfect home base for our family adventures in Bend! There was plenty of room for 6 of us (kids ages 16-21) to relax, and a great location to walk to breweries, restaurants and shops, and the River Walk. Accessing the home was easy with clear instructions, and packing up and leaving was a breeze.

The only reasons I give it four stars is: there is a giant pothole in the driveway that both cars and drivers hit. Also, the instructions say if soap runs out purchase more. If the dispenser is empty to begin with-?. Otherwise, the location is fabulous and it was very clean

Cozy home, centrally located

Loved my week here with my pup. House was cozy & centrally located. For the most part, less than 7 minutes driving to anywhere I needed to go within the city limits. House was well-stocked, from the towels to blankets to kitchen utensils to laundry room detergent etc. I don’t normally write about kitchen appliances and utensils, but this was the best-stocked setup I’ve ever seen. I cook a lot, so I notice these things. Was impressed! I’d definitely came back and stay here again.

Location!

This was our third year taking a girls trip to Bend. This house had the best location of any of the places we’ve stayed. We were able to walk to several great restaurants. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed. We happened to be there during a heat wave and were happy to find fans in each room and a portable air conditioner to keep the house comfortable. Communication with the host was top notch, a couple of questions were answered immediately. The information provided prior to our trip made check in super easy. I wouldn’t hesitate to book this home again!

Interesting property

For this place being on such a busy street, it was much quieter than we expected. Place is close to desirable locations (10 Barrel, Drake Park, downtown, and restaurants). It was also close to Shevlin Park where we attended a wedding. Easy place for Uber to pick us up. Only thing I would suggest is the owners need to add mini splits so they have air conditioning. Also, they should switch kids room with one of the others. Not safe to have little kids off by themselves and close to outdoor door.

Excellent Location!

Location can’t be beat. Restaurants, coffee shops, breweries, etc all within walking distance. The river is only a few short blocks away, and it’s a 20ish min walk to the Amphitheater if you’re in town for a concert (we were). We were very comfortable with our group of 6 (two couples and two teens). Didn’t use many of the home amenities as it was close to 100 degrees daily and we somehow must have turned off the AC (I can only assume) at some point in our stay. It wasn’t super clear that a light switch controlled the AC units power. Given the house was pretty hot during the day we spent our time on the river or exploring all Bend has to offer. The kitchen seemed well stocked and we appreciated the washer/dryer. Overall would stay again based on location alone.
