About Powder House
Powder House has been a fixture of Bend's west side outdoor scene for over 40 years, occupying a prime location on Century Drive — the main route from downtown Bend to Mt. Bachelor ski resort. This strategic position has made them the natural first and last stop for skiers and snowboarders heading to and from the mountain, and their decades of experience serving the Central Oregon community have earned them a loyal following among locals and visitors alike.
The winter rental fleet covers every skill level and style. Beginner packages provide forgiving, easy-to-manage equipment for first-timers, while sport and performance tiers step up to more responsive gear suited to intermediate and advanced riders. High-performance demo skis and boards give expert-level skiers and snowboarders the chance to test current-season models on Mt. Bachelor's diverse terrain, which ranges from groomed corduroy to open bowls and tree runs. Snowshoes and cross-country ski gear are available for Nordic enthusiasts who want to explore the network of groomed trails and backcountry routes in the Deschutes National Forest.
When the snow melts, Powder House pivots to a full mountain bike operation with a rental fleet suited to the varied terrain of Central Oregon's extensive singletrack network. From the flowy, pine-scented trails of Phil's Complex to the rocky descents of the Cascade Range, the staff can recommend routes and set up rental bikes to match your ability and the day's conditions. A full-service workshop handles tune-ups, repairs, and seasonal maintenance for both bikes and ski equipment.
With over four decades of continuous operation and deep roots in the Bend outdoor community, Powder House combines local expertise, quality equipment, and a convenient location into a reliable year-round rental destination that serves everyone from first-time visitors to seasoned mountain athletes.
