Please be aware of the following to make sure we are all on the same page: The guest house is in a rural area close to La Pine State Park and the Deschutes River. Downtown Bend is a 30 minute drive, Sunriver is 20 minutes and La Pine Center is 15 minutes. Please make sure that this location works for your lodging needs. The Wild River Guesthouse is a dog and horse friendly property. This means that there are 2 resident dogs and 3 resident horses. Please consider any allergies upon booking. The dogs will also sometimes be around when you are coming and going. They will bark initially as dogs do, but their tails will be wagging and they will be hoping you will throw a pinecone for them. They are medium size 30-40 pounds. Please consider any canine related concerns you may have when reserving the guest house. Also please note that we are unable to accommodate guest pets. You will hear and see us moving around the property as we work with the horses, play with the dogs and work in the gardens. If you are looking for seclusion this probably isn’t the best choice. The guest house vacation kitchen is fully functional with a combo microwave/oven, induction hotplate, rice cooker/vegetable steamer, grill with griddle attachment and all associated cooking equipment. It does not feature a traditional stovetop, oven, or dishwasher. Please look at the listing photos closely. They accurately show the ladder like stairs to the sleeping loft. Which is just as it says “a sleeping loft”. Entrance to the loft is 4’ high. If you are over 6’ you may find the sleeping loft and shower a bit snug. There will be times when we need to access the horse house by truck or tractor. This access is through the guest yard. We will let you know if this will happen during your stay. Most of all we look forward to hosting your Central Oregon adventure. We designed and built our guesthouse out of a former storage space on the property. We take care of it and take great pride in the cleanliness and maintenance of the space. It is our goal to offer a quality economical stay keeping in mind the things we appreciate when we travel. We are here if you need help or have questions but understand and respect our guests' need for privacy.
