Quiet neighborhood and easy walk to Riverbend park

Quirky house on a hillside (lots of steps and a steep driveway) that felt comfortable. Love the storage for bikes and the easy access to the park.

Fun in bend

Ping-pong, fire pit, outdoor grill, beautiful scenery, and comfy, surroundingsake for a great stay. Location generally good, but closer to the amenities would be a bit better. Some nitpicking things. The beautiful stoneware was difficult to reach on the high shelf.(heavy) and the kitchen lighting was difficult to find and not quite enough. Those are small items, thought you might want to know, would have no problem recommending this place or staying here again.

Convenient and room house near Old Mill District

An eclectic house walking distance from the river and Old Mill District. Plenty of room for bigger families. As mentioned lots of steps so perhaps not ideal for individuals with trouble on stairs. The location is great.

Fun House

We were in Bend for a long weekend during a stretch of markedly hot weather. Victoria and her staff made sure we remained comfortable so we could enjoy several days of lounging on the river, bike rides, hikes and beers on the river's edge

Great Location!

Fun place to get away with family and friends. Property is in a great location. Easy walk to river trail, Mill District and Reed Market Road. We enjoyed sitting on the deck at night with the gas firepit. Take note of the directions and turn into the driveway with the "Fun House" sign.

Great house, great location

We had a great stay at the Fun House. The location is convenient to easily access Bend, quickly get on the way to Mt Bachelor or to take a walk along the river. The property is spacious (we had six people and 2 dogs) and well stocked. Everything was exactly as we expected based on the listing. Garage access made it easy to load and unload for skiing. And, when we had questions about the property, it was easy and quick to get answers. We'll definitely give this property a look when we come back to Bend!

good location

This house is in a good location and its design was unique. However, there are three staircases to ascend and descend. The kitchen was poorly equipped, and the pots that were there were not clean. The floor on the top level creaked, which disturbed those on the middle level.
