About this house rental
Welcome to our highly walkable neighborhood.
Enjoy the hospitality of one of Bend's family-owned, micro businesses on a peaceful street in a carefully-renovated, 1922, west side bungalow. This homey abode, named for the Westlakes, 60-year residents of the house, blends new furnishings and finishes with old time character and charm. The large lot boasts gorgeous lilacs, honeysuckle and iris blooming in spring, a wild butterfly garden in summer, and plenty of room for snow men and snow forts in the winter. Wildlife frequently visit the neighborhood, including mule deer, rabbits, quail, hawks and hummingbirds. A great house for out-of-town grandparents visiting family in the area. The Westlake Cottage is located north of Portland Ave on NW 3rd St on a quiet residential street of older homes.
The house can sleep up to 5 people in two bedrooms with queen-sized beds in each ('NovoPure' organic construction mattresses) and on a full-sized futon couch in a semi-private family room. A gas fireplace makes the living room cozy in winter, and in summer there's AC in the back half of the house. Summer sun makes the whole house cheery.
The First Street Rapids on the Deschutes River (a great place to swim on hot summer days) is a short, four block walk from the Westlake Cottage. From the Rapids you can follow the River Trail downstream for miles along a well marked path, or cross the footbridge and walk upstream 10 minutes and be in downtown.
An easy ten minute walk will get you downtown to enjoy brewpubs, fine restaurants, coffee shops, live local theater and music, and of course, Goody's old-fashioned ice cream parlor.
We aim to make your stay as pleasant as possible.
When you arrive, you'll find coffee, tea, and laundry washer/dryer inside the house. Let us know if you need any assistance!
Rental apartment taking shape: The building of an apartment at the back of the property is nearly complete now. Activity at the build should be minimally noticeable, if at all, within the Westlake Cottage. The new ADU shares backyard space with the Westlake Cottage until we can re-landscape the backyard through the summer.

Another great visit to Bend and, once again, Eric and Barb and Westlake Cottage did not disappoint. Clean, well appointed, quiet - everything we needed for resting and relaxing after our adventures in the Bend area. Eric and Barb are excellent hosts - timely responses to our questions and always ensuring that we had what we needed to enjoy our stay. Definitely would stay at Westlake Cottage again.

We enjoyed our stay at Westlake cottage. It was easy to walk to the Deschutes River and find a spot to sit on a rock or dip your feet or even sit in the river if you so desire.
The house was clean. The towels and linens were great. The shower is fabulous and so is the soaker tub.
We love to cook and found all the dishes and cookware to be suitable for our needs.
Eric and Barbara are close and available to help as needed.
Mule deer roam the neighborhood and even hang out in the yard. Birds were abundant as we sipped our coffee in the morning on the back deck.
A perfectly acceptable house for a small family or a two couples to call home for whatever length of time is needed.
It’s easy to get to the main arteries and the downtown space from this location. The neighborhood is very quiet.
We explored Mt Bachelor, Elk Lake, sparks Lake, the McKenzie River and even went off to Crater Lake for the day. All trips were easy from this location.
A great vacation for us.
Thank you Eric and Barbara for this great rental.

Our second visit to Westlake Cottage was great! The house was spotlessly clean when we arrived and had everything that we needed for an enjoyable visit to Bend. Barb and Eric responded quickly to our questions. We look forward to our next visit and stay at Westlake Cottage.

The house is very clean, well appointed and an excellent value since there is no cleaning fee. However, we're a little old for hard futon mattresses, so I'm afraid we won't be renting this place again. Despite the name of the house, there is no lake nearby.
