Main Level: Two quiet bedrooms, each featuring a comfortable Queen bed.

Second Floor Master: A private retreat with a Queen bed and a sleeper couch that is perfect for a child.

Main House Game Room: Features a sleeper couch that transforms into a double bed for extra guests.

📍 Getting Around Bend
Our home offers the perfect balance of a quiet residential feel with rapid access to Bend’s best hubs. Here is how to navigate the area like a local:

🚗 Driving & Rideshare
The "5-Minute Circle": You are just a 5-minute drive from the Old Mill District, the Box Factory, and the city’s top food cart pods.

Downtown Access: Reach the heart of downtown Bend in 10 minutes via a quick Uber or Lyft. (Note: Rideshare is reliable here, but we recommend booking in advance during peak concert nights or holiday weekends).

Mt. Bachelor: A straight shot down Century Drive puts you at the West Village base area in under 30 minutes.

🚲 Biking & Walking
Phil’s Trail: One of the most famous mountain bike systems in the West is a 14-minute drive or a 30-minute warm-up ride away.

The River Walk: Walk out the front door and head west to connect with the Canal Trail, which leads you toward the river and scenic walking paths.

Veo E-Bikes: Look for the aqua-colored electric bikes scattered around town! Download the Veo app to grab a bike for a quick, eco-friendly zip to a nearby brewery.

🎶 Concerts at Hayden Homes Amphitheater
The 25-Minute Stroll: Avoid the "concert traffic" and parking fees! The venue is just 1 mile away—an easy 25-minute walk through the neighborhood.

Pro Tip: If you choose to drive, free event parking is often available at the Mt. Bachelor bus lot (just two blocks from the venue), but it fills up fast!

🚌 Public Transit & Shuttles
CET Bus System: Use the CETGo app to navigate Bend’s bus lines.

Mt. Bachelor Ski Bus (Winter): Don't want to drive in the snow? Catch the Route 18 shuttle from the Park-N-Ride lot on SW Columbia St (just a few minutes away). It’s $12 round-trip and drops you right at the lodge.

Ride the River (Summer): If you're planning to float the Deschutes, the shuttle from Drake Park back to your car at the Park & Float is a lifesaver for just $5.

🐾 Traveling with Pets
We are a pet-friendly home and love welcoming your four-legged family members!

Policy: We have a 2-pet limit and a flat $100 pet fee per stay.

Request: Please let us know during the booking process if your pets will be joining you so we can prepare the home accordingly.

🛋️ Extra Sleeping Arrangements

The Game Room Retreat: The brown couch in the pool table room transforms into a double bed—perfect for night owls!

The Family Suite: The dark gray sofa in the upstairs master bedroom is ideal for children who want to stay close to their parents.

👶 Family & Baby Amenities
Travel lighter! We provide a Pack ‘n Play for your little one, located in the downstairs bedroom (left side) inside the closet.

Need more gear? We’ve partnered with BabyQuip! As seen on Shark Tank, they offer clean, sanitized, and safe rentals for cribs, car seats, strollers, and toys. It’s the easiest way to ensure your "mini-adventurers" have everything they need without packing the whole house.

Gathering Family Together

The Ponderosa House checked all our boxes for a family visit to Bend. As parents of adult children who live away we look for spacious 3 bedroom accommodations. This house did not disappoint. It has plenty of room and available entertainment. We visited Bend for skiing and enjoyed the backyard hot tub, playing billiards, and darts. Finding the canal walking path at the end of the street was a wonderful bonus.

Fun stay in Bend

The house was just as listed. Aside from a few minor maintenance issues (refrigerator, kitchen cabinet door), everything was great. We really used and appreciated the hot tub, pool table, and game room...they provided hours of fun for our multi-generational family group. Minor request: more dishtowels would be handy!Communications with owners were quick and helpful and they were flexible about giving us a late checkout. We would stay here again.

Great house with some quirks

House was roomy, mostly clean with tons of fun games for adults and kids alike. Home is older than the pictures imply so there are some bumps and bruises here and there. Master suite upstairs lacks a door so be prepared for that if you want privacy and wishes it had a fireplace for those chilly bend nights! The lighting in some of the rooms is more on the fluorescent side/LED so it lacked a warm, cozy feel you want in the evenings. Owners were friendly, welcoming and super responsive. House had ample supplies any everything you need to cook meals. Location is good, about a city block from walking/biking trails and super close to the mill district. Overall I would rate this property a solid 4-4.5. A few aesthetic upgrades and a door on the master bedroom would bump it closer to a 5.

Fun in Bend

This house is perfectly set up for families. With three bedrooms (2 on the main floor), extra sleeping areas, 3 full bathrooms and lots of space it’s fabulous! The proximity to the Old Mill and Hayden Homes Amphitheater was perfect (less than a mile). It has a ton of games for adults and kids (and I mean the cool games like pool, ping pong, one shot basketball and more). The welcoming hot tub wraps up house and its awesomeness.
