About this property

Bluebird Day - Star Cottage

Welcome to the Star Cottage! A 1920's historic Craftsman built during the time of Bend’s mill heyday, lovingly restored with all of the modern amenities and hip, eclectic charm. Soak in the private salt system hot tub on the deck while your furry dog friends enjoy the spacious, open back yard. Hop on a cruiser bike and explore Bend like a local!

Tucked into Bend's up-and-coming historic Hill Street neighborhood centered between the heart of downtown Bend, the Box Factory and Old Mill Districts, you can walk everywhere in minutes. Walk to Jackson’s Corner Restaurant (the local’s fave), Palate Coffee, Crux Brewing, Atlas Cider, and all the shops and restaurants downtown. WebCyclery, a huge bike shop in a historic church is around the corner, and Market of Choice, Bend's gourmet grocery is just down the street. 

So many delightful surprises await you in this historic gem! Charming and sunny with plenty of windows, gorgeous restored hardwood floors, hip and eclectic upscale furnishings and local art work. Cozy up with a good book, watch a movie, enjoy free high-speed internet, or hang out with family and friends. Kids will love the Star Loft, equipped with 2 high quality twin futons.

Enjoy outdoor living Bend-style! Challenge your friends to a game of 'corn hole' or croquet in the huge back yard, or toss a Frisbee with your dogs. Gather fresh herbs and berries from the gardens, grill out on the back deck or soak in your own private salt system hot tub under a Central Oregon sky filled with stars.

Prepare an unforgettable meal in the fully equipped gourmet kitchen newly updated with black stainless appliances. Sit-down dining for 6 makes for many wonderful memories to be made.

The key to a fantastic vacation is a good night’s sleep! Enjoy gorgeous brand new European style bedding with high thread count linens, down duvets, and superior quality mattresses. The front bedroom has a King sized bed, and a Queen in the second bedroom. There are 2 high quality twin sized futons and linens provided in the upstairs Sky Loft (accessible by a ladder through the closet in the queen bedroom).

If you prefer to get out of town and into nature, there are endless hiking and mountain bike trails just minutes from town.  The spectacular Cascade mountains and many lakes are and easy 20 minute drive providing endless opportunities for outdoor adventures. Phil’s mountain bike trails are an easy 3 miles to the west, as well as many walking and hiking trails along the Deschutes River right out your front door!

Mount Bachelor Ski Resort is an easy 25 minute drive from Bend. This mountain is a blast, with a wide variety of terrain and trails that will keep you blissfully enthralled. There is a Mount Bachelor shuttle blocks away that will take you to and from the mountain. 

All Bluebird Day homes are lovingly cared for with the intention of offering you a world class authentic bend vacation experience.  Locally owned and operated, we provide you with a unique opportunity to experience the magic of Bend like a local. We care about our neighborhoods and community, feel passionate about preserving historic homes, and are delighted to offer you a glimpse of our unique and friendly Bend lifestyle.

Trip to Bend
The house was perfect for our family of four and our small dog. The boys especially liked the secret "hideout". The proximity to downtown and walkability was great. I'd recommend this to anyone staying in Bend.

Great house and great experience by Bluebird Day
This is our second time staying at a property managed by Bluebird Day in Bend. Their communication is excellent and check-in is easy. They are very responsive, even on weekends. This house, the Star Cottage, is a charming old home in a great area that's walkable downtown and to nearby restaurants and breweries. There are plenty of amenities as listed and the house is very comfortable for a family of 4-5. The kids room upstairs is a magical place, and our child absolutely loved staying there. There are plenty of linens and towels, all very clean and organized, and everything needed for a week's stay to be comfortable. But the home is nearly 100 years old and while many of the original features are charming, they can become a nuisance (think really creaky floors in the master bedroom or a finicky faucet in the shower). But the beds are comfortable, everything was clean, and having a hot tub was great. We would absolutely stay here again

Wonderful cost home
Loved staying here! It is such a cozy home with just enough space! Bed was very comfortable. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook meals. The hot tub and fenced in backyard were amazing for us and our dogs! Would absolutely stay here again. Thank you!
