Hey there! Are you looking for a spot to relax and distance yourselves from the rest of the world? Do you plan to help us be excellent stewards of Central Oregon? We’d love to have you! @deschutesriverhouse is located in halfway between Sunriver and LaPine, 40 minutes from Mt. Bachelor and an easy 35-minute drive to Downtown Bend. Our vacation home sits at the edge of the river in a remote Bend neighborhood, steps away from LaPine State Park's miles of trails and river access.

We just replaced all our flooring, so it’s fresh and new for you! We still have trim work to finish up, so while things aren’t quite perfect, we think you’ll still love our home!
**********
We hope you enjoy our home and treat it as your own. It’s a little bit ‘70s, a little bit updated and definitely cozy. We love to get out and explore the area by foot, bike, kayak, snowshoes and by car, but we also enjoy staying in and playing games, watching movies, reading, warming up by the fire and watching eagles circle overhead.
We have a large selection of games, puzzles, DVDs and also have high speed WiFi. There are smart TVs in the living room and kids’ room set up for you to log in to your own Netflix account.
Our kitchen is well stocked with spices, utensils and cooking appliances. Reach out if you have questions about what we have! We ask that you try to bring everything you need to cook meals in our home, so we do not stress local grocery stores during this pandemic.
We allow up to two well-behaved dogs to stay with you in our home. Please be sure they are kept off the furniture and beds, and aren’t left alone in the house without a crate. Pet waste must be picked up and thrown away outside. We charge a refundable pet deposit—see our house rules for details.
Our home is on a well with an excellent and frequently tested filtration system but the water may still have an odor or color to it. It’s safe to bathe in, cook with and drink, but you are welcome to use the Brita water dispenser provided in the fridge or bring your own water.
Please note that we have two exterior security cameras to help keep tabs on our house and the weather when we’re away.
