"Riverrun Retreat" Cottage along the Deschutes River, near Downtown Bend
Welcome to "Riverrun Retreat" one of our most well appointed cottages on property. This cottage is so close to the water that you can't get much closer without getting wet! You are so to enjoy yourself in this cottage. The king sized bed offers sleeping for 2 and you will not have a better view from the cottage.
This unit is one of the only cottages on property to offer a private patio. Enjoy a morning cup of Joe or an afternoon adult beverages as you soak up those sun rays. The walking trail is right out your front window so if you enjoy people watching like I do, then this will have tons of walkers to see passing by! But don't worry, out cottage windows have a slight tint to them to help keep the privacy of you and your guests on the inside!
While staying with us you will have the luxury of access to an indoor heated pool and hot tub! After taking a dip in the pool you can come back to the central AC to cool down even more on those warm summer days, and in the winter you can snuggle up next to the fireplace after being at Mount Bachelor skiing all day!
In general this is a nice spot, located close to town and in a cozy space. We appreciated the view of the river, a working thermostat, kitchenette, quiet unit with no loud neighbors, and itâs quite a bit of space given itâs a studio. Some notes for management to address are that the shower water pressure is bad, and the fridge is loud. That said, it was a pleasant stay overall and worked well for us and our dog.
After figuring out how to navigate the parking lot to find where this unit was located (really the only challenge of my stay), this proved to be a perfect spot for my quick visit to Bend. It's an easy and convenient walk to downtown and beyond. Would definitely stay here again as a great place to base for a visit to Bend.
Great location. Amazing view.Comfortable accommodations.
We spent a very comfortable 3 days. We hiked 12 miles along the river one day. Breathtaking views. The unit was very comfortable. Nice bed.Only downside was poor water pressure in the shower, so we ended up taking baths.
We were right on the river trail. Walked into town daily. Everything was great. Will stay again. It was a little difficult finding our room when arriving. Also, pool was closed as we booked to have a swim with our grandkids. Otherwise, a good value for our vacation dollar.
The view was very good. We enjoyed being able to sit outside to watch & listen to the Deschutes River. When we walked in I was overwhelmed with the strong smell of either floor cleaner or air freshener. It gave me a sore throat, cough & headache! It was after 7 so the office was closed. I wrote an email to the manager. We talked the following day & maid mopped the floor with clean water. We were airing it out when the smoke arrived from the fires & we had to close up the windows.We talked with another guest who said a homeless looking guy walked into their unit because she forgot to lock the door. That ruled out enjoying the nice fresh air.We had to use air conditioning. It worked well and was relatively quiet. The refrigerator was on almost constantly and was noisy. It made it difficult to fall & stay asleep.Both the pool and jacuzzi were cloudy & had accumulated body oils/soil. The pool was cold & jacuzzi luke warm. A photo is included.The tub needs a grab bar to safely climb in and out of the shower.The mattress was extremely uncomfortable. We could feel every movement our partner made. The side chairs, coffee table, and bedding needs to be updated.We were there for 3 nights & had to prepay so we tolerated it.We are travelers and have never been this disappointed before.
A perfect place, just a 10 minute walk from downtown via the Deschutes River Trail right at your back door. Very clean, comfortable bed, well-stocked kitchenette, and nice chairs for tv watching. Loved it!
The property was perfect- nothing fancy but right on the water and right on the bike path and not far from everything- we jumped on our bikes and toured around- ate at Sen (too expensive but right on the water)!
We were in Bend for a late May music concert and had a great time exploring the area from this ideally located rental cabin. We enjoyed the river walk, Prairie Park, and bird-watching from the outdoor area at the cabin. Also, only a short walk to downtown Bend for shopping, dining and drinking. The cabin was comfortable and clean.
I especially enjoyed having a kitchenette to prepare my own food. I sat on the Patio in the evenings to listen to the river and watch 2 Canada geese going about their business. It's a very well- appointed unit, my only suggestion is to put the toaster within reach. I loved the fireplace.
What a wonderful expirence! We loved everything about this property! The porch with river view == A++, the Swimming Pool == A++, the kitchen, the cleanliness was excellernt. Super quiet area, excellent parking very close to room. Staff was always super friendly and helpful. Beautiful neighborhood. This was truely a 10 out of 10 expirence for us. Recommend!

Not what expected.
The property was bare bones, no floor lamp, no area carpet on vinyl floor. Shower head produced a very weak spray. Outside patio was a bit dangerous with loose pavers, very old air conditioner which kept us awake.
We love the location, it was really nice being able to walk right down to the river. Itâs close to town and we were able to walk and get coffee in the morning. The only reason I wouldnât give it a five star is the bathroom was a little dirty by the tub, and it would really benefit from having a full length mirror. There is no way to see how you look when youâre dressed up to go out. Maybe a small dresser would be helpful as well. There is no place to put clothing except keeping it in your suitcase.
