About this property

Mirror Pond - Cozy Cabin Directly on Mirror Pond - Deschutes River!

Comfortable and cozy "Mirror Pond" sits on the banks of the Deschutes River at Mirror Pond and Drake Park in the heart of downtown. It is located in one of the most picturesque locations in Bend. This home has a mountain cabin and cottage feel inside and outside. Relax on the backyard deck and enjoy the sweeping views of Drake Park.

The home has original wood-paneled walls, and the kitchen has the original wood cabinets. You can prepare your meal surrounded by great views. Mirror Pond has two bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. The first bedroom has a queen bed and an updated bathroom, with double sink and shower. The second bedroom has two twin beds and shares a hall bathroom with the rest of the home. There is also a sleeper sofa with a 12" comfortable mattress in the living room to allow 6 guests to comfortably stay in this ideal home.

The living room has cable TV, a real wood fireplace, dining nook with picture windows looking out to the backyard and river, and a new deck with barbecue and plenty of seating. With tall ponderosas and one of the city's oldest willow trees by the home, it's a bit like a stay in the mountains, right in the heart of Bend.

Take a walk to downtown over the Newport Bridge, or the Drake Park walking bridge, for a day of shopping or strolling the river bank. Newport Market is just a few block away. You can leave the car in the garage and just enjoy a car-less day in town. Don't forget to bring the SUP or canoe and paddle up the river! It's one of our very few properties on the river.

Please note, if you choose to book with this home, you will be receiving a separate rental agreement that will need to be electronically signed before your stay.

Limited Parking.... NO large Vehicles. Cars must fit in garage or on small concrete pad with no overhang.

Amazing place!

This house was so cute, very close to downtown, and right along the water, as mentioned in the description. I was able to easily communicate with the property manager about questions we had. It was a great experience!

Perfect spot for Downtown Bend

Little quaint cabin on Mirror Pond, across from Drake Park. Downtown is a 5 min walk. But the cabin has not been well cares for and is sadly showing its age. But it is clean and well stocked

Comfy family home on the Deschutes River

Very comfy older family home - well cared for over the years. Only complaint would be restricting entry til 4 pm when the property is ready. Seems odd

Mirror Pond Retreat

We enjoyed ourselves staying at this property. Wonderful view of the pond with ducks and geese to watch as well as deer seen in the neighborhood. Great restaurants nearby and close to things we love to do and business contacts to meet up with. This location worked well for our needs and we will most likely stay again the next time we find ourselves in the Bend area. As a suggestion, might it be time for a new couch and loveseat? A bit worn out and uncomfortable.

Gem!

Great views and location. House is outdated, but clean. Couches need to be replaced many years ago and are horribly uncomfortable. Bed in primary suite was very comfy. Heat/AC is confusing with many dials and remotes available. The split AC unit started making awful noise when we used the AC. It stopped after 24 hours. Management was responsive.

I actually already reviewed with you but just in case you didn't receive it.

We loved the house, location, provisions. It was very comfortable and we would definitely stay there again, however, where is the Carbon monoxide monitor (?) and the master bedroom heater vents are melting and it smells like burnt plastic. It was glowing red.....could catch fire. So, that was worrisome and the end of my peaceful sleep. You'd better get that looked at and make sure those furnaces arent emitting CO....My old house had one that the gas company capped. I didnt have a monitor. Thanks.....everything else fine!

A lovely cottage with a shady garden backing onto the Deschutes River. The house offered comfortable accommodation with a great view, and was within walking distance of downtown Bend. We would love to return one day.

Visiting family in Bend.

The house was very nice, had everything we needed. The thing that makes this house special is the location, directly on the mirror pond section of the Deschutes river as it flows through Bend, Oregon. Across the water was a beautiful park setting. And the neighborhood the house was in was very upscale and manicured. I would definitely rent this house again. The management people were very helpful as well.

Sweet Spot!

This was terrific house. Beautiful large yard on the river with deck seating for enjoying the wildlife! The managers were especially kind & easy going. I really appreciated that check out was not full of detailed requirements. It felt great knowing as long as the house was cared for, we were good to go. They were also willing to offer early and late check outs for a small fee which was nice for being able to work a little longer on computer or work phone calls. Wonderful place, property management & location! Will be back soon! ;-“)

Loved it!

This is a great little cabin bungalow right on the Deschutes River! It was perfect for my family of 4. We loved sitting on the back deck to eat dinner and watch the River go by. Conveniently located within a short walking distance into town.

Lovely space & neighborhood, spent a lot of time viewing serene river & pine view from main rooms & deck, beds & bedrooms so comfortable, kitchen had everything needed to cook with (thankful for extra toaster that did work - would toss the other one). Fireplace needs a blanket of ash on the bottom & dry wood are essential to burn well. When/if I come back to Bend this would be the place.
