Bluebird Day - Smokestack River House

Welcome to the Smokestack River House! This luxury riverfront property boasts panoramic views of the Deschutes River and the Old Mill District. Step out to the river trail/bike path for a short walk or ride to the shops at the Old Mill and the Les Schwab amphitheater or simply enjoy the scenic trail along the river.

This three story home features upscale furnishings, a fully equipped gourmet kitchen featuring stainless appliances, a gas fireplace in the living room, and a beautiful patio equipped with seating and a BBQ so you can enjoy dinner in the heart of Bend with a beautiful view of the river.

The Smokestack River House has three suites, three bathrooms and can sleep up to 6 guests, making it the perfect location for couples or even groups to come and stay! One suite is located on the lower level with its own private TV room, wet bar and riverfront patio. The master suite with a gloriously large bathroom and second guest suite are located on the upper level.

Grab a kayak, paddle board or inner tube and step right outside to float the river or hop on a cruiser bike and ride through the beautiful Old Mill District neighborhoods. Downtown Bend filled with its many shops, restaurants, and breweries is also just a short bike ride or drive away. 

If you prefer to get out of town and into nature, the Mount Bachelor Ski Resort is an easy 25 minute drive from Bend. This mountain is a blast, with a wide variety of biking trails in the warmer seasons and skiing or snowboarding options in the winter, Mount Bachelor is a highly enjoyable destination.

Done Right
A rental without second-hand junk. This rental has necessary items like kitchen plates, utensils, etc., purchased for the rental. Very annoying going to a rental with old second-hand stuff. As it should be with all VRBO rentals, purchased for it. Sadly, few VRBO rentals are done right as this one is. The living room furniture needs a refresh. The location and views are the best in Bend, hands down. Highly recommend.

Everything was great. We have stayed here before and loved it. Only thing to mention is a few things need attention-the bikes, replace patio cushions, toaster needs replacing, remove chipped glasses. We would happily stay here again.

Wonderful Venue
A fantastic location, great view, and perfect location for a combination of hiking in the morning and walking to breweries in the afternoon. House was clean, had all needed amenities, and in great shape. I actually looked to see if I could book it again later in the year, but unfortunately it was already booked for the time I wanted. If it is available, I will be booking this place again next year.

What a great property and a great place to be for our spring break. We were so enamored with the location, the comfort of the beds and the great surprise of finding a bike for my son who had outgrown his. 10/10 would book again!

Incredible Views in Bend
Perfectly located on the river trail and the bustling Old Mill District, this lovely townhouse is large and comfortable. The home has fantastic views of the river, snow covered mountains to the left and the walking path along the Deschutes! Easily walk into town or go the other direction and follow the river through the forest. Home is well equipped and comfortable (especially the master’s king bed! Would absolutely stay here again!

Great riverfront location
A group of friends stayed here for Thanksgiving weekend. The location is convenient and walkable to the Old Mill District and the views to the river and mountains are awesome. This property was nice for three couples as we all had our own private space with 2 king ensuites, but the queen bedroom on the bottom level could be considered an entire suite with its own living space. What could potentially make this better is if there were more side chairs in the living room for gathering. In warmer months, the outdoor space could help extend the seating options. We did have an issue with our oven (that did not heat beyond a certain temperature or shut off) and could have been an issue if we were cooking a traditional Thanksgiving dinner. I called the management office the next day and they offered to send someone out, but I declined as we could get by without it. The microwave oven functions as a small convection oven. We enjoyed our stay here and would recommend it. It would also be nice to stay here in summer as the the float drop in area is nearby down the river path.

Wonderful home, amazing location
The property was absolutely perfect for our family of 6, plenty of space for everyone to sleep and hangout, great balconies, all essentials provided, the location was phenomenal…in the old mail area, with miles of walking and biking paths up and down the river (right out the door), great shopping area, coffee shops and restaurants a very short walk away….plus it overlooked the river which had constant activity and was so fun to sit and watch. We had such an awesome time, it was the most favorite place we’ve ever rented.
