My husband and I, plus our dog, really loved this property and it was perfect for us! The owners have thought of everything. It's a small space, but the kitchen is really well equipped, and the bathroom is large with even a washer and dryer. It was also really wonderful to have a private garage so we didn't have to unpack everything when we arrived late on the first night after a long drive. We also really appreciated the dog basket/bed and all the Bend information in the unit.
We didn't know Bend, so we were really happy to find out just how central this location actually is. We could easily walk to Drake Park, restaurants and downtown Bend, plus the Awbrey Reservoir Off Leash Dog Park was just about a half mile up the hill and made a great place for an early morning walk with our dog.
This property is above the garage behind a larger vacation rental house, but it's still very private. In fact, the only thing I would recommend would be replacing the fridge at some point with a counter depth fridge so it's easier to open the dishwasher all the way. But this is a minor thing and didn't affect my rating at all.
We will definitely stay here again on our next visit to Bend.
