Our vacation Home is nestled in the RiverWild area of Mount Bachelor Village Resort on Bend's west side off Century Drive which leads to Mt. Bachelor Ski Resort. RiverWild's location is on the western bluff of the beautiful Deschutes River with access to the many miles of river trail.

Despite its secluded environment, River Wild is just minutes from all that Bend has to offer including award winning restaurants, cinema, concerts and shopping. The River Wild Retreat was built in late 2006 and was professionally decorated and outfitted with all new furnishings. This home is truly a welcoming delight during EVERY season of the year.

Our home has 3 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, approximately 2000 square feet interior, a 650 sq. ft. covered porch with deck heater, outdoor living room and lounge chairs, alfresco dining for 6+ guests, adjacent 2-car garage, large capacity washer/dryer as well as PRIVATE (on our property) Hot Tub and community outdoor saline pool open Memorial Weekend through September 30.

The family room features a vaulted ceiling, HD Flat Screen with Apple TV, surround sound and a cozy gas fireplace. Bedroom 1 on the main level features a King Size Bed and en suite full bathroom. Upstairs, bedrooms 2 and 3 also feature King Beds.

Our 'cook's kitchen' is fully equipped by owners who love to cook! Features include granite counter tops, real hardwood floors stainless steel appliances, 5-burner gas cook top, bar with 3 stools, and a full stock of utensils and counter top appliances.

The Deschutes National Forest is only 1.5 miles away. For shopping and restaurants, the Old Mill District is 1 mile away and Bend's main street/downtown is located just 2 miles away.

Central Oregon is an outdoor mecca for mountain and road biking, hiking, golf, equestrian, snowshoeing, skiing and cross country skiing. Trails leading to the Deschutes River Trail and the Phil’s Trail network in the National Forest are connected to the resort. A huge variety of trails are in the immediate area. Mount Bachelor ski area is just up the road 18 miles and a shuttle is available in winter.

Golfers have over 20 courses to choose from! Tetherow is 1 mile away and Widgi Creek is 3 miles. There is great fishing and floating on the Deschutes River, as well as many area lakes.

Multi Family Getaway

We had two families stay at the house and enjoyed our stay. The house was clean and well stocked with items such as toilet paper, Kleenex, laundry soap etc. The kitchen is well appointed also. The beds are comfortable and linens were nice. We felt right at home and had a good experience!

Felt at home in Bend

We had a great week and this is a well kept and organized home. It really felt like we were at our own home - clean, well organized and comfortable. Was pleasantly surprised to find all the staples in the kitchen and the fridge stocked, including coffee, tea, condiments and even birthday candles! Great location for everything in Bend or heading to Mt. Bachelor. Hot tub was perfect.

A perfect spot to anchor a Bend Get-Away

Thank you for sharing your beautiful home. It made a perfect base for our week in Bend where we hiked, skied, watched videos, and sat by the fireplace reading books or surfing the internet. The easy access to the Deschutes River Trail was most convenient for either a short walk or a longer one to the Old Mill District and even downtown Bend. This is a spacious and immaculate home. The bedrooms were large and comfortable; the kitchen well-equipped and the near-by hot tub a special treat. We can’t imagine a nicer place to anchor a Bend get-away.

Beautiful Upscale Rental

This home is fabulous, very clean, fully stocked beyond what we have experienced with other rentals, nicely decorated and three comfortable king size beds with roomy bathrooms. It is located in a beautiful serene area, close to stores and the Old Mill District as well as downtown Bend, and a half hour drive to Mt Bachelor. It is also very close to the Deschutes River with tubing and white water rafting. The outdoor deck is perfect for relaxing, grilling or taking a jacuzzi in the enclosure. We have stayed in many VRBO properties over the years, and this is clearly the nicest one we’ve had. Christy is also easy to communicate with. I highly recommend this rental.

This vacation rental is stocked!!

This vacation rental has all the extras!! This is the first time I’ve rented a house that had sugar and flour in the cabinets!! This rental has so many extras-spices, condiments, coffee, electric griddle, soaps (kitchen, laundry, and bath) and so much more. It feels like you’re spending a weekend at a friend’s house! Loved the outdoor entertainment space. Michelle, the homeowner, was very responsive when there was a small hiccup with the coffee maker. Great quiet neighborhood and just a short drive to restaurants and the grocery store. Loved the house and the greater Bend area. Hope to be back again in the future.

Awesome upscale vacation property in perfect location.

We had a perfect week in Bend thanks to this wonderful home! The owners have made this a truly comfortable, warm, and convenient place to stay, way beyond our expectations. That's coming from people who admit to being a bit more high maintenance than most. Just bring your clothes, shoes, skis and snowboards, and everything else is pretty much covered in this home. Very close to the Mill and downtown shops and restaurants, and on the way to Mt. Bachelor. We liked it so much we started looking at available properties for sale in the same area. Snow could have been better at Bachelor (unusually dry month with mostly blue skies every day), but still had a great time. Thanks!!!

Beautiful home, dreadful checkin

Traumatic start to a long-planned family reunion - 2 groups coming from out of State. We booked months prior. Michelle checked in weeks before the booking saying she had a tight turn around and confirmed when we would be arriving. The house was in shambles when we arrived. Bedding and linens half washed, kitchen and bathroom not clean. My parents spent 2 hours putting things right, drying the linens etc before we arrived. I called Michelle and she responded by getting the cleaner back. What upset us was Michelle’s attitude and response. She was not very apologetic, argumentative, suggested we go stay somewhere else and/or we should go out to dinner. We had travelled a long way to be there and we were not at all prepared to try to find alternative lodging for our large group. The home was still dirty after the cleaner left, the bathrooms especially - overall it was not an acceptable checkin and we do not feel were treated properly or compensated enough. Two from our 2 separate parties ended up getting a bad tummy during the stay, presumably because the house was not clean. It is a lovely home, but overall the checkin experience and communication was very upsetting and tainted our entire stay.

Wonderful holiday stay with family

Lovely place to stay. We enjoyed watching the snow fall while in the house and the hot tub. Hot tub is very quiet Having the garage with high ceilings is wonderful. Kitchen is super well stocked. We really enjoyed cooking and eating in—even had a couple of family game nights. Thank you so much!

Christmas with Family

Plenty of room for the three of us and my mom liked having the main floor bedroom, no stairs. Plenty of room upstairs with to large bedrooms and a bath. Lots of towels and the kitchen has just about everything you need for cooking. We also love the large garage, especially with the snowy weather. The only thing that needs some attention is the light bulbs in all the rooms.
