Old Bend River Cottage Retreat

Tucked into the heart of Old Bend just steps from the Deschutes River, this restored century-old cottage blends cozy historic charm with modern comfort in one of the most walkable, sought-after locations in town. Warm, inviting, and thoughtfully updated, it offers an easygoing retreat for couples, families, remote workers, and adventurers eager to explore Bend’s trails, breweries, parks, and riverfront. Quiet mornings on the porch, evenings around the fire pit, and leisurely strolls to the water define the relaxed rhythm of life here.

Inside, the home pairs vintage character with contemporary essentials, creating a welcoming atmosphere for long and short stays alike. The living room is designed for unwinding, with plush seating, a smart TV, and fast Wi-Fi for working or streaming. A fully equipped kitchen makes it simple to prepare meals before heading out for a day of paddling, skiing, or brewery-hopping. Comfortable bedrooms, efficient heating, and A/C units ensure year-round comfort, while the washer/dryer makes extended stays easy.

Guests will love the private, fully fenced backyard, ideal for pets, featuring a BBQ, dining area, and fire pit perfect for s’mores under the pines. A private driveway eliminates parking hassle, and once you arrive, walking or biking becomes the preferred way to explore everything around you. The peaceful street offers a calm base between downtown and the Old Mill District, with river access, parks, trails, surf waves, gear rentals, and top eateries all within minutes.

From spring wildflower mornings to crisp fall evenings by the fire, the cottage delivers the simple pleasure of staying somewhere that feels instantly like home—rooted in nature, easygoing, and unmistakably Bend.
