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!

I cant say enough about the wonderful time we had at the Mirror Pond Bungalow. Our expectations were met in every way. The house is adorable, clean and in the best part of town for a visit. With the river a block away and downtown two blocks away, we walked and rode bikes everywhere. The team from Blue Bird was excellent to work with and thought of everything to make our stay comfortable. We highly recommend this home!

We loved staying here during our week in Bend! The house is only one block from Mirror Pond and five blocks from the restaurants and shops yet the neighborhood is quiet and serene. We would stay here again on our next visit to Bend. The house was comfortable and cozy and had all the essential amenities. A wonderful home!

This home is truly the best. Perfect location, beautifully decorated, responsive owners. We used the bikes the entire time we stayed in Bend. We are hoping to come back for a winter visit in order to ski!

This home is lovely, comfortable, well-appointed and in a fantastic location. We thoroughly enjoyed a long weekend in late winter. As Oregonians, we love the Bend area and enjoy all its seasons. Everything is a pleasant, easy walk from this home: Drake Park, downtown and NW Bend shops and eateries, McMenamins, Deschutes brewpub, on and on. The folks at Bluebird Day are true professionals who excel at communication and customer service. Wed recommend this home in a heartbeat!

The Mirror Pond home worked out very well for us. The location is perfect with easy walking distance to downtown and all points within Bend. Bluebird properties have been very consistent as this is our 2nd time in Bend and when returning we will be reviewing their properties again to see what is available before looking anywhere else. We felt right at home as soon as we walked in and our week was filled with Hiking, dining and enjoying the winter months which is quite different from our last visit.

We loved this house! The location is outstanding, easily within walking distance to all the restaurants and activity of downtown. Also within asking distance of Galveston St. Just a block away is drake park where we took our kiddos every day. Mt bachelor is about a 25 min drive, traffic depending. The house itself is adorable and decorated perfectly. The upstairs has two bedrooms and a bathroom. Downstairs is entire separate living area, where a second couple could easily be or older kids. It was awesome for us.

This darling historic district bungalow has plenty of room for six and it well maintained and spotless! The comfortable beds are brand new and made with luxurious cotton linens. I love the updated kitchen and sunny Breakfast Nook. Its location is perfect for a stroll around town, a little shopping, a meal out, or a jog around Mirror Pond not to mention a short drive for some skiing or hiking at Bachelor. I love the Craftsman feel to this home along with the updated decor. It is a perfect match! We were so comfy and cozy next to the fireplace we really didnt want to leave. I cant wait to stay here again!

My family stayed here over the Thanksgiving holiday. This home is charming and has beautiful woodwork. The kitchen is very functional and we had no issues preparing a Thanksgiving dinner and serving on the lovely dining table. Everyone had a private bedroom and there was enough space to spread out. The location is excellent for getting out and enjoying downtown Bend on foot. This house is a charmer.

This was a wonderful place to stay in Bend. The home was very comfortable and the location was perfect. The tulips were in full-bloom and couldnt have been more picturesque. We all loved our stay and wished that we could stay longer. Even though we walked everywhere there was more to explore. Were hoping to be back sometime soon.

For two couples looking to adventure around the Bend area, the Mirror Pond Bungalow could not have been a better choice in lodging. From accommodations to central proximity, the Mirror Pond was everything you need in one nice historical little package. The space is easily shareable, larger than photographs elude too, and comfortable enough for nights in or long sleepy mornings. I would recommend the Mirror Pond Bungalow to anyone...as long as they werent planning a visit when I was ;).
