I enjoyed staying next to the river with my dog. This was close to everything too, including a beautiful park next door with access to the river walkway!

I am so grateful to stay in this wonderful condo! I loved it! The kindness and help of the staff made it possible for me to do so. My sister was going to come and she lives up in Portland but her car broke down. We were coming to see Neil Young together. I came and due to numerous joint replacements, the wonderful staff made sure that I made it up the steps with everything safely and when the time came to leave, I was helped down again. I love this condo and slept wonderfully in the bedroom as the bed was so comfortable. I loved seeing Neil Young and hiking the lower trails. What a blessing trip! Once in a lifetime. I highly recommend this property. This is the second time I've stayed at Bend Riverside Rentals and I will happily stay here again. I'm very grateful to Troy and all the wonderful staff here. Many blessings to you all, you're in my heart, and I'll see you next time around. 5 star!

First of all, this property is much older and run down than the pictures make it seem. It’s actually a very old condo with creaky doors, old/gross carpets, extremely loud AC units and strict guidelines. When I asked for a slightly later checkout because we have a 1.5 year old who needed to nap at checkout time, the host didn’t seem to care and just said, “No, the cleaners need all of that time to get ready for our next guests.”
Yes, the condos are right by the river, but it’s also RIGHT next to a large river wall (which creates a man made waterfall) that is very loud. Not as “peaceful” as you would think with it being a riverside condo. Pictures don’t really show you these details.
We unfortunately did not enjoy the condo part of our stay. Luckily, Bend is a beautiful place to visit and we enjoyed our activities elsewhere.

This rental was a good location, nice size, and the pool/hot tub was a great benefit. The cleanliness of the rental wasn’t great. There were big crumbs of food all over the rug which my dog ended up eating, and the dishwasher hadn’t been unloaded so the cupboards were basically empty until I unloaded it.

The location was good. The inside of the condo was ok. The sofa needed to be cleaned, or at least vacuumed. It was pretty hairy, I’m assuming it was dog hair. We used the comforter to cover it so we felt comfortable sitting in it. I would recommend some new sheets for the bed. The faucet in the shower with the bathtub wasn’t working well. I wasn’t sure which way to turn it to get to the hot water. I ran it both ways and never did get hot water. The condo did have good assortment of kitchen utensils and cookware. There were also plenty of towels. I think a general “freshen up” would be great.

Overall we had a great experience. The sofa bed was broken, which I did not know before arriving, but management took care of it and got a blowup bed for my son. Location was great, just a short walk to downtown.

Great spit!
Exactly as picture, very convenient to downtown. Excellent view of the river.

Just Ok
Communication with management and location of unit is great. Room itself leaves a lot to be desired. The pictures make it look beautiful, so it was disappointing to see heavily stained/ripped carpet and drapes, bugs on bathroom lights, questionable bedding material, concave mattress, and a persistent humming noise so you couldn’t sleep with the door open to listen to the beautiful river. We wouldn’t stay here again.

Great location by Deschutes River
Great location overlooking the Deschutes River (best asset). Carpet showed several dark stains throughout (a real turn off). Needs deep cleaning badly or replacement. Kitchen was adequately stocked with everything needed and condo was spacious. Overall we would recommend this VrbO listing.

It needs a little cleaning, maybe a hair dryer. Over all I'm very satisfied and will definitely recommend it to my friends.

Convenient, clean, and cozy!
We loved our stay in this adorable condo overlooking the River near downtown Bend. It was very convenient for us, as we were visiting family who live just an 8-minute drive away. The fact that it was dog-friendly was a huge plus, but what was great was that the place was very clean and didn't *feel* like a bunch of pets had stayed there and ruined the place. The pool and hot tub were an added bonus, as was the proximity to the path along the river. Parking was easy, and getting in was super convenient with the door code. The kitchen was clean and well-stocked with everything we could need. Only thing I would have liked were more blankets available for snuggling on the couch--it was a cold weekend when we were there, and that would have been nice!

Perfect location, fun family spot
We loved this little condo right on the river walk, a short jaunt with a 6 year old landed us downtown where we enjoyed the breweriesand children's store. A different direction found us enjoying a peaceful river walk and we spied a beaver.
Our 6 year old (and us!) Were thrilled with the indoor heated pool and hottub, great spot for cooler weather traveller's like us.
Overall: we would rent here again, and hope to do so next year!

Convenient location to be able to walk into downtown. The river was beautiful to sit on porch.
Smelled like a dog had went to the bathroom in the house. On the second floor you have people above you- they were extremely noisy up all night. The people below us were pot smokers so if you had the balcony door open- that’s all you could smell. The pool area needed to be open later than 7pm.

Convenient location but a bit worn out
Needed a place to stay that allowed dogs for two weeks until our new house was ready for move-in. This condo met our 'layover' needs. The location is walkable to Old Town Bend with its many restaurants and shops, as well as to the Deschutes River Trail for walking, running and biking. The park next door was handy for our dog (no dogs on the grass at the condo property) but was also a hang out for the homeless. The space in the condo was perfectly sufficient, but poorly lit, and was a bit worn out and tired. It could use a good face lift.

Parts of toilet seat and fridge completely missing. Oven disgusting, window wells full of dead bugs, light switches more than disgusting, no advertised laundry available and no pool access code until too late to use it. Patio had food and debris all over ground.

Nice clean condo with terrace view of river. Access to trails and park was perfect for dog walking. Very close to downtown. Internet was very spotty at best- the manager provided booster but still did not connect properly. Laundry facilities in next building but clean and affordable.

We stayed 3 weeks and loved the property, especially the location. The spillway outside lulled us to sleep. If you know Asheville, NC you'll love this location & Bend. Not all was 5 star; mainly due to what I assume is covid restriction, etc related. And the restrictions changed 4 times in 3 weeks. The grounds are beautiful but weren't groomed until the last few days of our stay and our stairwell & public hallway was never swept. Lastly, if you bring your dog be forewarned; they have a very strict "No dogs on the grass" policy and while they do have a small relief area and park next door along with no elevators; bringing an older dog like mine can be challenging.
