Find a cozy place to stay.

There are several places along the river in Downtown Bend District or in Old Mill District. These two areas are full of restaurants and shopping - a more lively area to stay. Plan for about a 15-20 minute drive down to the studio from this area.

Further south, you’ll find more “woody” areas if you prefer being surrounded by trees. Keep in mind that if you find a place on the west side of the river, it might look closer, but you’ll have to drive north into town and then south again to DRW, as there is no direct access across the river.

HOMES

We have a 3ft ramp available for you to use during your stay (perfect for single-step entrances), which may make more AirBnB or VRBO options available to you.

HOTELS

Closest hotels: 10-minute drive to the studio, and about 10 minutes to the downtown area. These hotels are close (within 1/2 mile) to highways, grocery, Walmart, and simple restaurants. These are a bit east and don’t deliver the “Bend Experience” but they are an nice budget option.
