"Airbnb Review #987068765819551361 #223716"

by Review from Airbnb Guest #223716

09/23/2023

Perfect place to crash for a couple days of golf and birthday celebration for adults.

Three comfortable king beds, walking distance to restaurants and bars, clean, lots of towels, heaters in each room so we could all set our own temp, fans in the closet, extra blankets, good wifi, nice TV for a ballgame, AC in the main room, kitchen was equipped well enough to make hangover cure breakfast sliders. Provided coffee was nice, we forgot to get it so it was great that there was some there for us.

Only one bathroom, but insta hot water heater means you can rotate through the shower and nobody gets cold water.

Bedrooms are big enough. Nice touch having hotel style luggage racks. The main open are is good size, and a nice patio is right there.

Bend’s water tastes lousy. Would love a water filter for drinking water and ice that didn’t taste nasty. Buy bagged ice and bottled water. Obviously that is not our host’s fault.

Overall the place was perfect for our needs.

Staying at Diana's place was the cherry on top of a great week vacation in Bend! Her place was extremely well located, a short walk into downtown, near all the restaurants and cafes. I must say the high ceilings and tons of natural light were details we greatly appreciated. Her place was clean and cozy and had everything we could possibly need (in the kitchen and throughout). Diana's communication was great - proactive, friendly, super easy check in, couldn't have asked for a better airbnb. Highly recommend staying here. We'll be back! Thanks Diana!

Response From: Diana Spring

Thank you for taking the time to share this positive rating! We will keep up the amazing work and hope you'll book us again soon when you're in Bend.

"Fabulous place. Perfect location. Diana was quick to respond"

by Ian H

08/18/2023

Fabulous place. Perfect location. Diana was quick to respond and a pleasure to work with. Very peaceful, quiet and safe. Short walk to the lovely old downtown where there’s plenty of restaurants and breweries. House was very comfortable with 3 nice sized bedrooms and the place was in excellent condition. It had a patio where we could grill. Easy access in and out of house. Had a driveway to park our vehicle. It was excellent. And the price was very competitive to other properties. I would not hesitate to stay there again if I was in Bend!

Response From: Diana Spring

Hi Ian! That's mainly our goal. We're glad to know what we accomplished by reading your feedback. Thank you! We’re so happy your visit went well.

"Perfect place to stay, and it made for a perfect weekend"

by Danny K

08/08/2023

Perfect place to stay, and it made for a perfect weekend. Awesome location that is super walkable to downtown and other activities.
We were in town for a show at Hayden Homes Amphitheater, and we were able to walk there and back - so nice to not have to worry about driving and parking.
The house is perfectly situated so you can also very easily float the river using only one car if you need to. And at night you can walk to great bars and restaurants.
While the blueprint of the house isn't huge, it feels pretty spacious inside and it was more space then the two of us needed. We were super comfortable - though larger groups might want to plan plenty of activities since there's not a lot of outdoor space and just the one main (large) common room. I feel like that's all very obvious from the listing though, so for smaller or very close groups it's great.
We would absolutely stay at Diana's on another trip!

by Riley

Bend is beautiful! We enjoyed the Munch & Music on Thursday. Tubing and paddle boarding were a blast. We loved walking to town - the kids favorite stop was Cravin Candy shop and gelato. The location is great for walking every where. The house had everything we needed. Thank you!

"Lots to do in the area."

by Deborah F

07/13/2023

Big Lava was a great place to stay. It is in a great location, close to many restaurants and shopping opportunities. The place is very nice and clean. 3 bedrooms, each with king beds is unusual. Comfortable beds. Loved the high ceilings. Also having a washer and dryer was awesome. Close to the river also. Lots to do in the area.

by Taylor

04/23/2023

Had a great time here in Bend! There were so many fun things to do! Some of our favorites included ice-skating, smith rock, river walks/trails, parks and a really good burger place called "Blue Eye Burger". We definitely will be bringing bikes next time because all of the cool biking parks & trails we discovered. Also, the soaking pools at McMinnemins (however you spell it) were very enjoyable as well. Overall a very relaxing and beautiful place (both this house & the city.) Thank you!!!

03/25/2023

Amazing location! We had a wonderful family vacation in this home and walked to everything we wanted to do in less than 10 minutes. Truly right in the heart of all the best Bend neighborhoods. The host was incredibly responsive and had many thoughtful amenities like local coffee, candy, games, and extra towels.

"located just blocks from downtown"

by Amy And Jason

03/25/2023

Big Lava is located just blocks from downtown and at the heart of the action in Bend. If you hang out on the front patio or in the living area, you’ll see lots of pedestrian/auto traffic. Short walk to downtown, so convenient! Lots of windows and natural light. The bedrooms do have darkening curtains, but due to the modern design and high windows, some light does filter into the bedrooms. We found the beds to be a bit too soft and hot for our liking due to the egg crate toppers and synthetic pillow/mattress toppers. This property would be good for a family or group that wants to spend all of their time together, as there is not much separation of space. Also, taller people will probably enjoy the very high cabinets in the kitchen (not easily accessible by guests at 5‘2“). We appreciate the cleanliness of A Stone’s Throw Bungalow homes and the host’s team is responsive to messages. We would stay with them again!

"Bend at your finger tips!"

Bend at your finger tips! Perfect location, great place and great host.

"Big Lava was great and everything we could have hoped for!"

by Melanie M

03/02/2023

Big Lava was great and everything we could have hoped for! The location is perfect for exploring with the ability to walk to all the favorites in Bend. The only downside to the place is it is a pretty heavy traffic corner so may not offer as much privacy/peace as other spots. Overall it was a great place for our weekend as a family in Bend and would stay there again!

"the most welcoming and comfy spot to be with"

by Mike S

02/25/2023

We absolutely loved our time here - it was our first trip away from home with our 14 week old baby…and we were FULL of nerves. The Lava spot was the most welcoming and comfy spot to be with our baby, relax after skiing 12” powder days and to eat, drink and soak SO nearby. We will definitely come back ASAP

"This location can’t be beat"

by Nicole S

"The house was perfect for our needs."

by Jonathan M

02/01/2023

The house was perfect for our needs. Walking distance to downtown and Old Mill District. The library was two blocks away which was great to take our 1.5 year old to utilize the children's indoor play area.

"We loved our stay!"

by Tasha K

01/12/2023

We loved our stay! The home was a great size for our family of four. Two more people would not be too crowded, just be aware there is only 1 bathroom. There were so many pluses to staying here! Amazing location (walkable to great area restaurants), washer/dryer, well stocked kitchen, outside shed for all our snow stuff, so much natural light… It is a great choice! We loved all the thoughtful extras too- the hot cocoa and coffee, the puzzles, the area recommendations, the luggage racks, the provided lotion (we needed that!). Next time we visit Bend we plan to stay here- thanks!

by Sean S.

We stayed at Big Lava in Bend for three nights and found it to be fantastic. The location is easy walking distance to town and to the Historic District as well.

The house is spacious with a lot of natural light and the rooms are very good sized.

The guidebook that was provided was very helpful for looking up places to go while we were there.

I strongly recommend this place to stay if you're going to be in Bend, Oregon for any length of time.

Thanks,

"Diana's team are very professional and responsive!"

by Kate Koplan

12/27/2021

Stone’s Throw and Diana and team very professional and responsive. Cannot Beat the location. Excellent parking. Clean. Basic but very well stocked - coffee maker, cups, bowls, silverware, towels, linens, PT, TP, soap!! Limited storage space for clothes but has suitcase racks as well as hangers in the closets, and some hooks scattered around. Washer/dryer functions and useful. Dishwasher functional and useful. A/C and heat very functional but only in the main room so need to allow it to heat/condition the 3 bedrooms for the overnight portion. Was actually totally fine at night with closed doors in very cold winter weather if allowed the heat to get through during the day. Cannot stress convenience of location and cleanliness of location and responsiveness of hosts. !!! Enjoy!

"Location is great"

by Anne

07/06/2021

My family of 5 stayed here over July 4 weekend and we had a great experience. The bungalow is just like what you saw in the pictures - and the location is great. Walking distance to coffee shops, restaurants, markets, and the river (though maybe too far if you're carrying a lot of stuff) while still being in a very quiet neighborhood. Plus, it has AC!! Highly recommend, would stay there again.

Happy one year anniversary Big Lava! Your doing a great job, A Stones Throw Bungalow! We were impressed with how quickly you responded in the night when the smoke alarm kept going off. Your willingness to come the next day to replace it was so kind. Im glad that it wasn't necessary and the rest of our stay was lovely. This home accommodated our situation very well. Moving from the valley with a baby and a toddler and needing a temporary home until our place was ready. Thank you.

"Best staycation"

by Madeline

The perfect spot to get away to beautiful Bend. Location was perfect, just a stones throw from great restaurants, cafes and tap rooms, but in a lovely leafy quiet street. The little touches like the foam cover on the bed to make it heavenly soft to sleep on and the lovely body wash made us feel so welcome. We ate out lots, but also enjoyed cooking in, plenty of plates, pots, glasses and utensils made it easy and the sofa and benches were perfect for eating, relaxing but also for computer hook in.
