Stayed here with two other families. Plenty of room and amenities. Fantastic location and the ability to text Bennington with questions was extremely convenient (response time was quick). Will look to stay here again as this is an annual trip for us.
A very well appointed place for a group stay. Plenty of open space to gather and eat!!
Communication was prompt and checkin was easy. Home had a large open living/dining space that was perfect for a group stay. Well appointed kitchen, great two decks, good hot tub. Was close to Ft.Rock and the gas station/grocery so good location.
Our stay was wonderful and the property management was extremely responsive and helpful. Property was clean and the neighborhood was quiet and delightful. Hot tub and kitchen appliances were solid. No need to bring kitchenware as there was a massive surplus of every utensil/gadget you could imagine. Felt very comfortable throughout the stay and will definitely be back.
The home was just as described. We had 8 total staying in the house, three different couples and a single friend all taking up the bedrooms. It was plenty big for all of us.
The back deck was lovely and was our main hang out location in the mornings and evenings due to the heat. There's no AC in the house, and it can get warm during the day. I think it got up to 85 degrees upstairs when it was about 95 outside, but the lower level with three of the bedrooms stayed much cooler. We really didn't have issues at night opening windows (all screened) and putting fans everywhere. The house had plenty of fans but feel free to bring your own, it's always nice to get the air moving.
We were easily able to get 4 vehicles in the driveway without sticking out in the road at all.
Bennington was super communicative and responded almost immediately to all text messages even on off hours and the weekend, they were really great to work with.
We had a really nice stay at this property. The layout is very spacious and perfect for extended family. We had an issue with cleanliness in the beginning (the kitchen counters and floors had not been cleaned, and there were no cleaning supplies left to do it ourselves) but the property manager was very responsive and helpful. There is no AC so keep that in mind if you go in summer (it was VERY HOT in the late afternoon). Beds were comfortable and kitchen was well stocked. All in all we had a nice stay and loved visiting Sunriver.
House was perfect for a short weekend away with a small group of friends (9). Plenty of space for cooking and lounging for everyone and a short drive to the incredible lava tube / Newberry National Volcanic Monument. We all had a great time cruising around on the bikes provided. Excellent stay, we'll be back!
This property was great and we really enjoyed our weekend stay in Sunriver. It's in a great location in the middle of the resort and was clean, had all necessary amenities and was adequately stocked. My only complaint is that the electronics could use some updates. The living room TV is decent size but could be bigger and the bedroom TVs were quite small. HD cable would also be nice. Overall, we really enjoyed the house.
we found the house, location, furnishings, etc very good. The klichen was particularly accommodating, the beds most comfortable and overall excellent. Thank you. A superior stay. Tim & Karen
We had 8 adults and 6 kids in our party and the house suited us just fine. Plenty of room for all of us. The house was equipped with a high chair and pack n play which ended up being very helpful.
We are a small law office of 4 ladies and this year we decided to bring our spouses. This vacation home was perfect. Each room fit each couple's needs and the common spaces were fabulous. I loved the Jack and Jill style bathroom downstairs and the master suite was a real treat for our senior partner and her hubby. We enjoyed the hot tub and spent time together cooking. The dining table was for 8 and we visited for hours over dinner, desert and drinks. Very happy about a bbq being available and tons of fire wood for a cozy snap-crackle-pop. The house was exceptionally furnished and had everything we needed.
Our son and his soon to be new wife chose Sunriver in October to get married. So we all rented houses in Sunriver and it was a blast. Only thing I wish we could have had them all a little closer.
My family of 5 had a great time in Sunriver/Bend with this property being our home base. Each access to hiking/biking trails right within Sunriver and an easy drive to Bend for lots more. The house was clean with everything we needed for meals, and lots of seating for everyone. We also loved the hot tub and made use of the ping pong table. The only thing we wished for was some AC as it was in mid/upper 80s every day, but it cooled down sufficiently at night and the property had fans to help cool everything down. Would definitely stay again.
Acceptable for price and pet friendly but needs work
This property worked fine for the 8 Adults and 2 dogs however it is in need of some definite updates. The most bothersome things were easily fixed. Coffee maker is ancient and doesn't work well, toaster only worked on 2 of 4 slots. The back yard was in need of some tree maintenance and just needs some clean up. Also the upper deck was in need of some repair and definitely either staining or paint work. This is surely a rental that the owners are not putting money back into the property to upgrade. One negative due to the fact that there is no air conditioning was the Master bedroom did not cool down at night until about mid-night or later. Even with being conscious about the shades/windows and doors the upstairs would get to 87-88 degrees each day and made it hard to sleep until 1:00 am - we chose to lay out on the upper deck to cool off until the bedroom was bearable. 3 downstairs bedrooms were nice and cool the entire time. This is probably better suited for Winter rental rather than summer until they update the place. Bushes next to driveway could also use some trimming so 4 cars can park in the driveway and still be able to enter both sides of the cars. I realize many of these are minor things and that is why they should be fixed. The other big issue is that Bennington Properties doesn't have affiliation with Sunriver and thereore you do NOT have access to the SHARC and limited options on River take out process for floating the river. When we go again I will pay whatever is necessary to get these amenities.
We loved each couple have their own room and bath without bunkbeds. Deck was an awesome place for the dog to chill! Kitchen was really well stocks with all the essentials.
Loved the living / kitchen area, hot tub, fireplace, and spacious bedrooms for all. Clean and well appointed. So great to have a dog friendly place!! Would definitely come again.
Clean and beautiful, this house had everything we needed for a family thanksgiving.
Instructions were clear and helpful. This place was wonderful with a fully stocked kitchen, plenty of bathrooms and a hot tub. There were TVâs in every room. Deep soaking tub in master bathroom. We loved the ping pong table which provided hours of fun. The amenities at Sunriver canât be beat. This added up to one of our best holiday experience.
We love 9 Sumac for our family of 10 that includes a rambunctious 3 year old, 2 almost teenage girls and 2 mini schnauzers. The enclosed deck keeps the little one and doggies contained. Location to Fort Rock Park is a huge plus too! Kitchen is well stocked and the only thing we wish we had was an air popper for popcorn! We'll bring our own next time!!!! The natural landscaping could use some pruning. With 3 cars in the driveway cutting back the bushes as well as taking the low lying dead branches out would make the yard more roomy for dog walking and parking! TV's in the master and one downstairs bedroom didn't work but Bennington quickly sent someone to fix them. Bennington was always very responsive to our needs. Thanks so much and we'll be back next summer to 9 Sumac!!!

Reviewer Comments:
Large family truly enjoyed this spacious home while taking our bi-annual Sunriver vacation. Quiet cul-de-sac location that is a short walking distance to bike/walking paths. The only issue we had (if an issue) is that the heater furnace kept the house either too hot or too cold, we just couldn't find a happy medium. This could have, however, been user error? The house had everything we needed, the only downfall was the absence of Sharc tickets. I wish management would bring this addition back to rental packages.

We had 2 families, with 8 adults and one teenager (plus one dog). It was bit tight for sleeping but we made it work. The beds were comfortable, and the home clean. Really liked the open floor plan on the upstairs for cooking and playing games. Lots of light everywhere, with abundant windows and skylights. Nice in the winter. Unique feature was a heated garage, which came in handy for putting all our wet gear from playing in the snow! The kitchen was very minimally stocked (e.g. no pepper, no oil, no cooking spray but we left ours so hopefully the next guests will have what they need!) and quite difficult to locate items (found the hot pads on the last day at the very back of a low drawer). Luckily we had brought nearly everything since getting to the store wasn't easy with all the snow! Very difficult to access the hottub and front entrance because of ice/snow. Heat in house was very tricky with uneven temperatures up and down, especially overnight. Overall, the family time was great, nice access to Ft Park. Good response from Bennington regarding several issues.
