Romantic Guest House on 20 acres - Hot tub, Wildlife, Amazing Pool, Tennis Court

Sweetums Guest House is a private and beautifully appointed 2 bedroom, 2 bath guest house located on a peaceful 20-acres ranch. Views of Three Sisters and Broken Top mountains from the property, horses, wildflowers and abundant wildlife. Just 8 miles to downtown Bend and 12 miles to Sisters. 45-minute drive to Mt Bachelor Ski Resort/snow parks and mountain trailheads. Large private yard and partially covered patio with private hot tub, views, wildlife. Amazing seasonal salt water swimming pool, tennis court, hammock, corn hole game. On the Oregon scenic bike route. A perfect location for your vacation!

The main living area is an open-concept living/dining and kitchen area with a cozy wood-burning stove, large, flat-screen TV and DVD. The large master bedroom has a king bed with attached full bath. The second bedroom has a queen bed and attached full bath with high thread count luxury linens, shampoo, conditioner, soap and hairdryers. Each bedroom has a full closet. Each bath has beautiful Italian ceramic tile and granite counter tops. There is a washer & dryer with laundry soap provided.

Relax on the patio with views of the natural surroundings. The patio - great for wildlife viewing - has Adirondack rocking chairs, an umbrella table and chairs, a gas grill and private hot tub - wonderful for stargazing. The tennis court is just steps away, as well as a gorgeous solar-heated salt water swimming pool with mountain views mid-May-Sep, weather dependent.

Wonderful country home in Bend

This was a great property and some of the best communication I have had with property owner in my many VRBO stays around the US. The use of Hot Tub, pool and tennis courts is a great bonus. The home is very well equipped with comfortable furniture and beds. The views of Sisters and surrounding mountains is great. Very centrally located for exploring central Oregon.

Comfortable and Peaceful

The Sweetums Ranch guest house is the perfect place to relax after hiking and exploring the Bend, Oregon area. The guest house is strategically located to offer guests privacy, yet allows them access to a swimming pool and tennis court. And very quiet at night as the property sits well back from the nearest road. Tracy and Bill are wonderful hosts and are very accommodating.

Turns out I AM a little bit country

Wow, what a fantastic way to end our 3 week road trip. We had a fantastic stay at Sweetums Guesthouse. The location is perfection!! We live in a busy part of Portland and being able to stay on a small ranch where we can pet some horses, cluck at the the chickens, and see the new calf’s frolicking in the pasture was such just a treat. The guest house is well equipped for a very comfortable stay (mattress in the king bed room was so comfortable). The views from the living room were fantastic, and soaking in the hot tub under a clear star filled night was pure magic. Kitchen has everything you need if you want to do some cooking as we did including some oil and spices. We appreciate the fresh eggs and breakfast treats that Tracy left us at check in. And the wood stove helped with the chill in the evening. We will definitely stay here again and tell our friends about it.

Wonderful stay

We've stayed at a lot of VRBOS. Weve stayed at many Bend locations. The service, reservation process, communication by the owner were exceptional. The house was very nice, with a quality view, and well appointment. And all the firewood we could've possibly used. Did I mention the friendly horses? They were wonderful to "chat" with and scratch. Location was ideal, set between Bend and Sisters. Will certainly make this as a favorite especially for next summer.

Beautiful farm house!

My wife and I had a nice quiet relaxing stay here at the guesthouse on this 20 acre farm. It was very quiet and peaceful. We stayed 3 nights but it would have been nicer to stay longer. Sisters and bend are a short drive, and there are plenty of hiking trails and good places to eat. The host brought us yogurts and some delicious berry scones for the first morning. Great hosts!

Great weekend, perfect property

We loved this property. Very pretty surroundings with easy access to Sisters, Tumalo, Redmond, and Bend. The house was cute, well put together, had everything we needed. The owners were very nice and maintained our privacy. It was fun to see the animals on the property and get the occasional visit from one of their very sweet dogs (made me smile every time!). We would definitely go back.

Stunning beauty, idyllic, creative experience overall

This home is exactly as pictured but impossible to capture in photos. My sister and I spent our week taking in the serene surroundings, perfect accommodations (well appointed guest house), afternoons / sunset at the pool, walks to visit the horses and chickens. Perfect spot for creative retreat. Hosts Tracy and Bill absolutely wonderful. See you next year - thank you!

Had a wonderful relax stay at the ranch

We had a wonderful low key stay at the Sweetums ranch guest house, the property ground is beautiful, the location is ideal to experience Bend being just outside of the city for a quiet country feel yet it’s about 15 minutes to town. Tracy and Bill are very welcoming and responsive. The guest house was clean, comfortable, wonderful pool, tennis course was a bonus. We love the birds and the ranch animals. We would love to come back when we are in Bend the next time. Thanks.

Sheer Heaven

This is our third stay at the Sweetums Ranch Guest House, our home away from the world when we make our annual trek to attend the Stitchin’ Post Quilters Affair classes and Sisters Outdoor Show. My sister and I look forward to this week together at the Guest House all year long. Tracy and Bill are wonderful hosts who we now think of as friends. The property is immaculate and well stocked with anything you need. The hosts respect privacy while also being available as needed. This is a week of pure bliss for my sister and I, a recovery spot from each year’s challenges and celebrations. See you next year!

Great value

This was a comfortable place in the country side very conveniently located between sisters and bend. Stayed in December so weren’t able to take advantage of the pool or tennis court but the hot tub was lovely. Comfy beds and lots of wood for the wood stove which was a cozy way to heat the house. Otherwise the little wall heaters need to be used which are a bit noisy. The only improvements I can suggest are to have a lock box with the key on the door so we don’t have to communicate about time of arrival or departure, and a tv/sound bar remote that is more user friendly. Overall a pleasant stay. We will be back!

Sweetums is very special!

It's like staying at your own private country club - tennis court and 2 lane LONG swimming pool...along with hot tub, adirondack chairs overlooking the beautifully landscaped yard and neighboring cows - enjoyed cocktail hour each night doing just that. And the inside is equally as wonderful - fully equipped kitchen (complete with delicious scones, eggs from their hens, and yogurt from Trader Joes; this was intended for our first breakfast, but this treat basket covered all three mornings we were there), wonderful plate glass windows overlooking patio, tennis court, and yard, comfortable bedrooms, baths and washer/dryer (a detail most appreciated as we were traversing Oregon for 14 days). Tracy, the owner, is delightful, greets you in person, and explains how to use the hot tub and uncover the pool; throughout the rental, Tracy answers all questions/concerns promptly. Sweetums is a favorite from the many VRBOs we have rented over the last 2 decades! A bucolic, relaxing stay, just minutes from Bend and Sisters - perfect for visiting the many sites up Route 97, as well as the McKenzie Pass-Santiam Pass Scenic Byway. We couldn't imagine a more idyllic place to enjoy our 50th wedding anniversary. Hoping to return for a longer stay to celebrate my 75th birthday in two years! Thank you, Tracy!

Charming and cozy country guest house

We stayed for a week in the Fall and absolutely loved it. The expansive view, nature walks and horses and chickens gave us a wonderful taste of farm life. The guest house was well equipped with firewood, and all the comforts of home. Great location, close by to Bend and Tumalo - but nice and quiet.
