Great location,walking distance to Old Mill district and all it has to offer,less than half hour to Mt.Bachelor. The amenities and accommodations were perfect for the 6 of us but could handle at least 2 more with no problem. The Arc is on our return list..

We rented the Ark for out of town guest for a family get together. The Ark was everything we were looking/hoping for and more.

We had a great time in the Ark. We had everything we needed. It was walking close to Deschutes River, a great park, & amphitheater. Short drive to restaurants, rafting and fishing trip pickups and grocery! A lovely time.

This beautiful property far exceeded our expectations from beginning to end. This was the most spotless home we've ever rented upon arrival. The location is amazing - right across the street from the park and river. Everything was perfect.

We stayed at The Ark, a large house in Bend, Oregon. Our contact was helpful with questions. We had plenty of space and comfy beds. The house was clean and comfortable. It was close to walking trails and shopping in a great location. Plenty of cookware for home meals. I would think it would be great for summer as you can walk to Farewell Bend to get in your inner tube and float downstream!

Overall good to great experience. Great location and easy access.
A suggestion for improvement is to have instructions for use of the TVs. We weren’t able to get sound out of the TV or sound bar for the TV in the master bedroom.

Loved the house, was in a fantastic location, close to Old Mill and Deschutes River. House was big with great communal kitchen and lots of space for us all. Wonderful holiday vacation

The house was big, well appointed, and comfortable. We had everything we needed. Loved the area, very convenient. . Short walk to the river and walking path to old town. The owner was very prompt and helpful with all communication. We had to leave early because of smoke and air quality issues and the owner was incredibly understanding and generous and gave a refund for the unused nights! I absolutely recommend this property!

Great location and comfortable house
We traveled to Bend with four generations of our family to watch my brother participate in a triathlon at Fareway Park. We loved staying at this house because of its great location (we walked to everything), comfortable space, and well equiped kitchen. We have stayed at many vacation rentals as a large family group before and this kitchen was much better equiped than many other homes. You will love this house.

Comfortable space, centrally located
A very clean, comfortable, and quiet location. The kitchen was well apportioned but would have been challenging to cook and feed a big crowd as the table is a bit small and the family room was surprisingly small and without a TV--so hosting a watch party here isn't going to work. WHile the bedroms were good sized, all were with queen beds--which was suprising as the master was huge and warrented a king. The very sheer window coverings were no match for the 525am sun for a house full of non-morning people. But it was very comfortable, clean, and quiet.

Great location!
Our family stayed here for a week in April and we loved staying at this house. The location was perfect. We could easily drive to many restaurants all in 5-10 mins. The driving distance to hiking trails was also very nice.
The master bedroom was a good size and we enjoyed looking out towards the river from the balcony.
The bedrooms are on a separate floor from the main living area so there was just one set of stairs to worry about for a small child. Our 18 month old child sometimes wondered over to the stairs but since they were away from the loving room it wasn’t an issue to keep him from trying to climb up.
We’d definitely come back but probably prefer a warmer month next time when we could take full advantage of the river!

Large House, Plenty of Space
We had thanksgiving here. There was ample room for all of us! Everything was extremely clean, there were enough towels to go around. I communicated with Alan and he responded promptly. The house had a great location and close to the old mill. There was a wonderful walking path nearby also.

A HOME AWAY FROM HOME
THE ARK TRULY IS A HOME AWAY FROM HOME IN EVERY WAY. NOT ONLY THE PERFECT LOCATION BUT HAS ALL THE AMENITIES THAT REALLY MAKES ONE FEEL AS IF THEY ARE HOME OR ON A REALLY NICE VACATION.
THE BEDS WERE EXTREMELY COMFORTABLE. THE HOUSE IN SPOTLESS CONDITION AND WELL STOCKED INCLUDING THE SUPER NICE LUXURY OF HAVING A KEURIG! WE WOULD ENJOY OUR COFFEE ON THE PATO WATCHING THE DEER JOIN US ON THE LAWN FOR THEIR BREAKFAST.
WE HAD ONE MINOR ISSUE WHEN WE ARRIVED (TVS NOT WORKING - WE ARE NOT A HUGE TV FAMILY BUT IT WAS THE OLYMPICS AND WE'RE AN ATHLETIC FAMILY SO WE WERE EAGER TO WATCH THE WOMEN'S SOCCER GAMES) ... ONE QUICK PHONE CALL WITH ALLAN AND IT WAS ALL STRAIGHTENED OUT IN RECORD TIME.
WILL MOST DEFINITELY LOOK TO STAY HERE AGAIN ON OUR NEXT TRIP TO BEND. THANK YOU!

Amazing location, house and amenities
This house is one of the nicest AirBnB's I've ever stayed at. It had all the wonderful amenities needed for an absolutely relaxing time. The 3 minute walk to the river made it easy to carry our paddle boards over and go for a paddle every day.
There were spices available to use, and the A/C was amazing as it was over 100 degrees multiple days. It was so nice to have a garage to use, as well.
The walkability to Old Mill as well as to the deschutes river loop was fantastic. I myself live in Shevlin Park, and just used the house for a girl's weekend- and it was amazing. The master bedroom, bath and closet were luxurious.
I would absolutely stay here again.

The home was extremely clean and tidy, well-appointed and close to everything. We could walk to Old Mill, many trails and parks and it was a quick car ride everywhere else. The house was larger than expected, which was perfect for all of us working and schooling remotely/online. The wifi was robust!

We truly enjoyed our time at this property. It was very convenient to the hike in the canyon along the river as well as the Old Mill District. We also saw some deer walking along the street. The home was spacious and relaxing. It was a great trip!
