We had a lovely visit to Bend with our 2 little boys & my parents. The Bungalow was the best rental yet! We come every two years and we hope to rent this Bungalow again. The 4th of July was nice even though we miss the Pet Parade. We went rafting & canoeing and had a blast. The backyard and the breakfast nook are my new happy place as I enjoyed many cups of tea in each spot. We enjoyed family in Redmond and enjoyed the quick walk to Drake Park & Mirror Pond. Our time here was lovely, thank you!

This is the third year winter we have rented the Mirror Pond Bungalow House. We feel like its our home away from home when we come to Bend. It is a wonderful location-walkable to Drake Park (our 3 year old grand daughter had the best time sledding on a small hill 5 minutes away), the Mill District, breweries, and two wonderful gourmet grocery stores. Great skiing and hiking are so close by. The house itself is spotlessly clean, furnishings are high end and so comfortable as are the beds. The house is stocked with whatever we could need. We will be back!

Wow! What an amazing historical home! We had so much fun exploring the area! Visiting Mt Bachelor before the ski resort opened, Sunriver and Sisters along with hiking in the snow when we encountered a road closure at Tumalo Falls. We had a magical time hiking in the snow anyway! The 6 bikes available in the garage were so fun riding (to Drake Park and the neighborhood) but also a photo op with Mirror Pond Pale Ale! We had great meals at so many delicious restaurants and cant wait to come back to explore more!

This was a great place to call home for a few days. The house was perfect for our needs and the staff at Bluebird was a pleasure to connect with. Communication process was outstanding and well certainly book other stays with them when we make it back to Bend! Five stars all the way around!!

Thanks for such a lovely home base for our week in Bend! We have visited many times before and have always enjoyed the sunshine and blue sky, fabulous brew pubs, restaurants, outdoor adventure, and friendly locals. This town never disappoints! Your home is a perfect location with a welcoming vibe. We enjoyed coffee on the front porch and relaxing in the idyllic back yard. Favorite visitor was the hummingbird sipping form the bleeding heart. Already daydreaming of out next return.

We stayed at the Mirror Pond Bungalow for an annual ski trip and had a lovely stay. The house is walking distance from 10 Barrel, Sunriver Brewing and downtown Bend, and has easy access to the Cascade Lakes Scenic Byway to get to Mount Bachelor. There was plenty of space for our group to have appetizers in the living room, meals in the dining room and to play games at the dining room table. Rebecca was easy to communicate with and responded quickly to questions.

Fabulous place for a family vacation. Historic bungalow that has been beautifully restored. Close to Drake park and walking to downtown restaurants. Nice finished basement area for kids to hang out. We found it a bit dark on main floor and within hours the renting mgmt company had delivered new floor lamps. We cooked a lot in house in the well appointed kitchen. It was winter when we stayed so we didnt bike. However the ski shuttle bus is a 4 min drive away. We will definitely be back

The house was in our perfect location- we walked to town to a different coffee shop every morning, and then later walked back to town for dinner. We could easily bike around the historic neighborhoods and to a bike trail using the 4 bikes provided. FYI- you can also bike to many breweries and a great donut shop.We almost lost the opportunity to tube down the Deschutes because the wait was so long to rent tubes. We drove back to the house, grabbed two tubes and the raft from the garage, had them blown up were you rent the tubes, and we were in the river in no time. We exited at Drake Park and walked the block back to the house with our tubes. Bluebird checked in with us via email to see if we had any questions the day after we checked in. We definitely recommend this house!

We loved our stay at Mirror Pond Bungalow! The property and grounds were immaculate, and every need we might have had was already considered. The bungalow is quite comfortable, and the location is perfect! It is close enough to all parts of town and the park so we could walk everywhere after a day at the lakes or on the trails. The neighborhood is lovely and quiet, even so close to everything. I would definitely recommend this rental!
