Enjoyed and cherished by family and friends since 1951, this rustic log cabin, located at the confluence of the Spring River and Deschutes River, adjacent to Sunriver Resort, offers a relaxing getaway with sparkling natural springs and picturesque mountain & river views. Book now and enjoy an idyllic retreat at this coveted six-acre homestead surrounded by the Deschutes National Forest and boasting 780 feet of private pristine riverfront perfect for fly fishing, boating, floating, and swimming.

On waterfront pleasures
Ramble to the dock to launch your stand-up paddle board, river tube, kayak, boat, raft, or to use our 14ft canoe. Soak up the sun, fish, or stage a full moon canoe ride. Marvel at the volcanic aquifer natural springs babbling among towering aspen and brilliant lupine. Stroll through the forest on pine needle covered walking trails that meander along the banks of the glistening crystal clear Spring River. Float to Besson Day Use Area and walk the river trail back to the cabin. No car needed to enjoy this family friendly river float. Kayak or canoe the Deschutes River part of the National Wild and Scenic Rivers System.

I want to give zero stars to keep other people away from this lovely place, but that wouldn't be fair to Carla.What an amazing place! It's like staying at a good friend's house. . . I've never been to a better appointed rental. Go in eyes open though, it is VERY rustic (it's a historic cabin, after all).Incredible beauty. Best spot near Sunriver.

Gorgeous location on the river. The cabin is thoughtfully equipped with everything visitors could need.

Blinn's Landing is a lovely slice of paradise, the landscape is gorgeous and peaceful, a wonderful respite from the outside world. Carla has the cabin and surrounding areas well-stocked, warm, and cozy, everything needed for comfort, with some great extras thrown in. The crystal clear waters of the Spring River a are sight to behold and we thoroughly enjoyed our kayaking adventures! There is something for everyone here, it's remote enough to get a way from it all, yet close enough to town if you choose to go that route. This is a really special place with a fascinating history that we'll definitely come back to, thank you for your thoughtfulness and hospitality, Carla!

We’ve stayed at Blinn’s Landing before and loved it. Our second visit was no different. The property is set in a magical location on the bank of the Deschute river. The property is well equipped, particularly if you like to cook as we do. You can choose to relax on the dock or be more active on the river, whilst Sunriver or Bend are only a short drive away. We are already talking about when we will visit again.
