Kid-friendly vacation rentals in Deschutes River

We loved everything about our stay here. The location is fabulous, the house beautiful and has everything you could need, and Carolyn was extremely accommodating about letting us check in a little early since it was ready, and then helping us with a forgotten item. We really hope to come back again for another visit!

Loved this place. So relaxing and the weather was perfect. May want to add lighting to the steps on the deck. Almost took a spill and into the railing. Beautiful cozy place with spectacular views.

Top 5 stays I’ve ever had with Airbnb. What a beautiful place with every detail dialed in. Comfortable and serene.

Donna is an incredibly gracious hostess. She met us upon arrival and even left delicious, freshly baked sweet almond bread and some basics in the fridge! The place is spacious, nicely decorated and had absolutely everything that was needed for a pleasant stay. The house is in an excellent location just a short 5 minute drive to the little town of Tumalo and also a short distance from both Bend and Sisters. Checking in felt like coming home. I hope we will get to see Donna again!

We stayed with my son and his family. Our two grandsons competed in BMX over the weekend, where one race was in Bend and the other in Redmond. With the house positioned between Bend and Redmond, it was really convenient to hop on 97 and head in either direction. The house was as described. When we arrived it was hot, and Josee explained that she had been out of town and that the cooler had not been installed yet. While we were at one of the races the next day, she contacted us to ask if they could install the cooler, which they did after we gave her the green light. It was much cooler when we returned later that day. Overall, the stay was great and the house was worth the payment. Thanks Josee!

Awesome spot. Peaceful by the river and a nice getaway to relax. Has all the amenities you need and an easy to access location. Great internet speed as well.

One of the best places to stay in the Smith Rock State Park area. Gorgeous views all around and very peaceful. House had all the amenities you would need during your stay and a lot of local recommendations to check out. Would love to come back another time.

Would definitely stay here again. The house had everything you would need, plus some. Lovely neighborhood, clean inside and out. Easy instructions, we had no issues whatsoever. Can’t wait to return again.

This was the perfect home base during my time exploring the Hood River area. I spent my days wandering the landscape, returning in the late afternoon to sit on the porch, write poetry, and listen to the river and birdsong. In the evenings, I’d head back out to photograph the stunning scenery, before returning to a wonderfully comfortable bed. The space is thoughtfully designed—especially for travelers using it as a launch point for outdoor adventure. The shower had excellent pressure (a gift for a gal with long hair and after a long day outside), and I appreciated the long benches that made it easy to organize and re-organize camera gear and bags. It felt like this place wanted to support joy, movement, and creativity.

Absolutely immaculate! Johns place is so nice and I slept rock hard. There are so many thoughtful amenities for us women and that means so much! I would stay again!!

The bed is super comfy, we slept great. Greg and Cindy’s place was in a great location and we were really able to enjoy Bend! Thank you.

The location was breathtaking. We had no issues during our stay so did not require additional communication with the host. We would love to return!

We loved AJ’s apartment! The location is perfect for exploring Bend - we walked everywhere! The apartment was super clean and comfortable and had everything we needed for our stay and more. Check-in was easy, and our host was responsive. We would definitely recommend it!

This was our second time staying at this Airbnb and hope to always return. Joan is so easy to work with, she has a variety of coffee and snacks, the apartment is well stocked and very clean.

This is our third time staying at Cecilia's place, and we have enjoyed it just like before. The location is private and quiet and also an easy drive to Mt. Bachelor. Cecilia has kept the place very clean and free of clutter. Kitchen setup is wonderful with all I need to cook meals. This place makes us feel relaxed and that is what we are looking for on a family vacation. And the nice pastries left for us by Cecilia are highly appreciated.

We stayed one night while on a road trip and it was just what we needed. Much better than staying in a hotel!

Very nice place, just as described. A great location for enjoying Mt Bachelor as well as Bend!

We stayed over memorial day weekend and couldn’t have been happier with the location. It felt very centrally located. Condo is small but cozy. We appreciated the comfortable queen bed, well stocked k-cups for coffee in the morning, and the fantastic community pool/BBQ area. The pull-out couch was fine for my tall teenager but is definitely a one-person bed if they’re not a smaller child. Overall we were really happy with this place and wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again!

Jane’s place was an amazing location for our trip to Bend!

Great stay and location. We had a dog with us and having the backyard space made it so fun for our little pup. We enjoyed the stay - it was clean and had everything we needed. The team communicated so well and since it was a hot weekend, they provided us with an AC unit immediately. The only recommendation is to not request the guests to wash the towels and linens (as it is a vacation and we booked a stay to get a break from daily chores. The fees covers the cleaning charges). We leave all airbnb/hotels quite neat and clean and to anyone booking this place, please note they did not make a fuss about it when I refused to do so (appreciate that). I will 100% recommend the stay to anyone in the area specially with a dog.

This modern one-bedroom condo exceeded every expectation we had for our Bend retreat. Perched perfectly along the Deschutes River, it offers everything you could want in a Central Oregon escape – stunning views, prime location, and thoughtful touches that made us feel instantly at home. This condo delivers on every front: comfort, location, amenities, and those special details that transform a good stay into an unforgettable one. We're already planning our return visit to Bend, and there's no question we'll be booking this same slice of riverside paradise. Highly recommended for couples, solo travelers, or anyone seeking a peaceful yet well-connected base for exploring all that Bend has to offer. Enjoy!

We enjoyed our stay. It was very peaceful and had everything we needed.

Meredith's place was even better than the listing described. She was a great host and communicated quickly and efficiently when I had questions. The condo was cute, comfortable and equipped with everything we needed for a great stay. We look forward to staying here again.

Super cute place! Would definitely stay here again. Kyle was very helpful when we needed him. Close to lots of great amenities.
