Nice View of the River

We were pleased with the condo. It was clean, and the river river view was very relaxing. The memory foam bed was quite firm, as others have noticed. It was a little different the first night, but I got used to it.

Good place

Great view of the river from the porch. Nice fireplace. Good bed with the sound of the water drowning out other sounds. Good kitchen to cook our meals. A bit dated, but nice and clean. Not much soundproofing, We would stay there again.

Fantastic spot and excellent location!

I was visiting Bend on my way back to Utah in a work from home tour and this place was absolutely perfect. At night, it cooled down enough for me to open up the patio door with the screen and enjoy the sound of the river which was incredibly pleasant. I would absolutely come back and stay again!

Beautiful View

Property was clean and comfortable. The view was stunning and helped us relax and enjoy. Will definitely stay again. The oven needs attention. It never reaches temperature so it just keeps heating and gets too hot.

Bend Riverside unit 300 license to Mill

The location of the condominium was great. Wonderful view of the river. The pictures look like the condominium is clean and in good shape, however the actual condition is very poor. The carpets are filthy and have skillet burns where somebody dropped a pan and melted the carpet.. Food stains as well. They tried to cover it with a shabby carpet which made it look even worse. Bathroom was fair but tub enclosure had unfinished patches where the fiberglass was damaged. The Murphy bed is ridiculous as it takes up too much space in the room. it doesn’t allow you to sit up in bed without pillows falling behind into the dirty spring-loaded mechanism. The place is just dirty and dated. I would happily pay more for the unit if it was updated and cleaned up. Would not rent it again in the same condition .

Pleasant accommodations

The room was nice, with a great balcony that overlooked the river. I wish it had been a little closer to town. The first night we were there we walked into town, and it was dark when we came back. Visibility wasn't great (but, this is kind of what makes Bend nice - you can actually see the stars!). Overall, tho, no complaints.

Perfect location with beautiful views!

It was everything we hoped for. We could walk to town for delicious food or walk on the trail out of town for a view. Everything was amazing. Communication was great! When I couldn’t find my check in information email, it was resolved with a quick phone call with response right away. Only thing not perfect was the firm mattress and next time we’ll just bring our topper because we are soft mattress people. We’ll definitely come again. Thanks for the fabulous stay and being a wonderful host.
