Artful, Rustic Backyard Cabin-Sustainable Ethic, Downtown 20 Min, 5-Star Shower

It was great!

Beautiful quiet place, amazing history and very welcoming and sweet host, would definitely recommend and also would stay here again.

The decor included unique family historical items that were very interesting. My own grandpa was a mechanic at a garage, so the environment was homey for us. We especially liked the well loved poker chips and cards! The shower really was 5 star. We could walk to nearby family and for food and shopping. The neighborhood was still in fall color display, beautiful.

Our stay at Grandpa's Cabin was very welcoming and super cozy. It was quiet at night and the bed was comfy. The kitchen was just right and the copper sink was a thing of beauty! The shower was fabulous. Our communication with our host was excellent. Our dog was especially excited about the cool tile floor. Hope to revisit.

Clear communication and clean accommodations. Within walking distance to good cafes and restaurants.

Jean was wonderful and so knowledgeable about the area. We thoroughly enjoyed chatting with her, and the cabin was perfect for our stay! Great location, close to everything we wanted to do, super quiet, and very safe.

Grandpas is in the perfect spot. So much life and so much to do in the area. The neighborhood was beautiful as was the property. Jean is the sweetest person and made the whole experience such a joy.

We very much enjoyed our stay at Grandpa’s cabin. It’s very quiet and private yet close to restaurants and shops. We found it to be tastefully decorated and had all the amenities we needed. Our hostess Jean went out of her way to accommodate us and make sure we had everything that we needed. Grandpa’s Cabin will definitely be at the top of our list for future visits to Portland.

This is a wonderful fully equipped studio in a very Zen back yard setting. It's super quiet, decorated like your family's generational mountain cabin and incredibly comfortable. The owner is super kind and you can tell she takes a lot of pride in her rental - cares that you are truly comfortable. It has many well thought out conveniences along with sweet little sentimental notes that explain some of the cherished family items that are sprinkled throughout. This will absolutely be my go-to rental whenever I'm visiting the Portland area, easy to get around the entire city from there plus plenty of available street parking which makes for a short walk to the unit day and night. Homey and delightful, very highly recommend!

Enjoy the quaint atmosphere.

Jean is a very friendly host, and Grandpa’s Cabin was clean and comfortable.

Check in with complicated as guests have to physically sign into a log book. Although we gave advance notice of when we would arrive the owner was not able to be there so there was a lot of back and forth about when we could actually sign into the guest book. Otherwise the place was great, clean, easy to head downtown. Comfy bed and super cool bathroom.

Our host Jean was wonderful. My husband and I experienced such a relaxing visit here. EVERYTHING you could possibly need when going on vacation, Jean provides in this cozy space. Her garden and outside patio added a “spiritual touch.” I also must mention the AWESOME shower! When we visit Portland again, we’ll definitely stay here!!!

Exactly as described but you have to experience it to fully appreciate this amazing place. This was the ideal home base for our Portland visit and Jean is a delightful host.

I stayed here because it was a unique property, close to family I was visiting and pet friendly (I was traveling with my little dog ). I really only slept there but it was a very peaceful, cozy spot. Jean, the host, is lovely and accommodating. I would definitely stay here again and hopefully spend more time enjoying the property!

Very relaxing! Loved the gardens and natural scents!

Beautiful surroundings! Nice neighborhood. The cabin was so cute and had all of the amenities we needed available. We had a great stay!

I felt very safe in the little cabin. I loved Jean’s garden. She as a nice host.

Clean, adorable space in a picturesque garden setting. Loved this spot. The hostess was lovely. A great place to stay!

My son and I thoroughly enjoyed our one night stay here at this property after flying into Oregon in the later part of the day. Jean was such a lovely host and met us right away to show us around. You can tell she puts a lot of care into her place. I must say the tile shower she put together herself was absolutely devine! Jean also gave us advice on where to eat which was so nice considering this was our first time visiting the area. We thoroughly enjoyed Kens Artisan pizza, its worth the wait! Thankyou for making our mother son trip an amazing experience that we will always remember!

Really enjoyed my overnight stay and had everything I needed. I really appreciate the ability to travel with my pup. The cabin was very clean, the garden is beautiful and Jean was a delightful host. Will definitely return when visiting friends again.

The unit is very charming. Jean is a perfect host, only sad I didn’t get to meet her kitties (they are shy and it was raining). Did get to meet the very friendly nextdoor kitty though!

Amazingly affordable spot in a beautiful Portland neighborhood. We visited in mid-October, when the many trees lining the streets were filled with colorful autumn leaves, and several homes were decorated with creative Halloween designs. Jean, the property host, was friendly and great to work with. The location was convenient and the price was terrific. We would stay here again.

Thanks, Jean for being a great host!

Nice space to feel a cozy atmosphere with enough amenities to be comfortable! Jean is very friendly and helped make the stay comfortable. It was fun to learn the history behind the place as well. Just what I needed!

This backyard cabin has been in Jean’s family for many years. The space is full of interesting memorabilia and is also very comfortable, functional, and beautifully remodeled by Jean. The surrounding garden is lovely. I didn’t cook, as I was walking daily to my son’s home, but it’s a nice, walkable neighborhood, which Jean knows all about, and I enjoyed my stay at Grandpa's cabin. really liked my stay here to a

Small but delightful place! Perfect for a couple. If we return to Portland, we will definitely try to stay there again. Could not have been better.

Such an amazing stay! Jean was a pleasant, thoughtful, and caring hostess who clearly takes amazing care of the property with attention to all amenities. There was an amazing and seasonal garden that truly felt like a paradise, a well-stocked kitchen with all necessities (multiple types of coffee pot, oven/fridge/new microwave/etc.), and additional, modern amenities like a good ac unit to help cool down during the summer. The rainhead shower with italian tiles and a skylight bring you to a tuscan countryside... add those factors to a hammered copper sink, historic photos of the area, and abundant arching sunflowers, and I felt like I was in a charming oasis! The host, Jean, was readily-present, as she lives adjacent, and she was very kind and helpful during checkin+in case we needed anything, like the time when she forewarned me about a neighborhood filming event that required I move my car a house up to be safe! She was a gracious host, and I also felt very safe in the neighborhood as a LGBTQ+ person--even alone through day and night. Plus, the cats in the garden just outside the sunlit patio were absolute delights! My stay was complicated as I was renting alone but renting for two, due to a friend who was helping me move out of the PNW for personal reasons--I can honestly say that if I had stayed in this neighborhood and an apartment or standalone like this lovely cabin earlier in my 4.5 years in the area, I would have had a harder time leaving! I highly recommend this rent

Jean is a super hostess. The property is serene and you can feel lovingly designed and tended to. There is also some great Portland/Oregon history that Jean can share if you are interested. I booked this for a staycation with my dog. The neighborhood was great to walk her in and we were both very comfortable for our entire stay.

Our 2nd stay here during our trip to Portland. It's comfortable, clean and convenient to airport. The surrounding garden provides a private and meditative experience.

so happy to have a serene, comfortable place to stay close to the airport. The beautiful garden surrounding the rental was a bonus! Thank you!

This is my first trip to the USA and the city of Portland, Oregon too. I was looking for a short stay where I can experience life like any ordinary American living in their home and city. Jean was a great host for Grandpa's and she has a nice touch with the interior of the cabin, which is well maintain as well as applying some essential upgrades so that it's modernized while still retaining the originality of Grandpa's structural integrity. Jean also have her garden fill with seasonal farm produce which she grown herself. I had a great experience in picking some raspberries myself, that's a first experience for me too. The cabin is just nice and cozy enough for two persons, but I have it for myself, which was great~~ Furthermore, Jean also introduced me some aspects of the surrounding areas in the neighborhood, where supermarkets like Safeway is just less than 5 min walk. Great for people who likes to cook their meal, where I did just that, very satisfying. And if you prefer to get more, bus 12 can take you to whole food markets too. Overall, the neighborhood is safe and quiet, as I have no trouble roaming either day or night. Last but not least, the cats are a little shy (to me) but they are definitely cute!

We had a wonderful stay at Grandpa's shed. Such a wonderful garden cottage full of interesting artifacts from Jean's family. We thoroughly enjoyed the patio/porch area in the evenings, overlooking the garden. Fantastic bathroom, and comfy bed. I would absolutely stay here again!
