Live like a local in our beautiful one-bedroom craftsman home that blends modern design with century old architecture. This private space is located in trendy Kenton on a quiet street. The lushly landscaped front yard is a great place to sit and enjoy a cup of coffee, local beer, or a glass of wine. Cook your purchases from one of Portland’s many farmer’s markets in the full kitchen. Then get a great night’s sleep the comfy queen bed. Come see what makes Portland uniquely Portland!

As you enter the front door of our craftsman home you'll find a 600 square foot private space with abundant window lighting and an eclectic set of furnishings. Enjoy the living/dining room combo, kitchen, bedroom and bathroom as well as the outdoor spaces including the front porch bistro table and the side yard with two Adirondack chairs.
At the back of the kitchen there is an exterior door with a deadbolt separating the front portion of the home with the back of the home where we live. There is only one partial shared wall between the two spaces allowing for maximum privacy.
The neighborhood is dog friendly and we have a small dog in our living space but in order to keep the rental space clean and enjoyable for all guests, we don't allow dogs.

There is easy access to many conveniences like Columbia Park (3 blocks), bus stop (two blocks), U. of P. (one mile), and Green Zebra Grocery (6 blocks).

    This was a lovely cottage with everything you would need. It was clean and cozy warm and close to the grocery store and restaurants. The neighborhood is very quiet and I felt very safe here. My son lives only a mile away, so it was very convenient for us to meet up. I had a very relaxing week.

    We immediately felt at home, although this place is much more stylish than mine! Everthing was pristine but not at all stuffy. I can't say enough good things about it

    We were so happy to find this adorable house just two blocks away from the friends we were visiting in Portland. The house is impeccably decorated and spotlessly clean.

    We enjoyed our stay at the dragonfly house in Portland. The house is well-equipped with a comfortable bed and shower. Andrea was very responsive. The garden is beautiful and the library impressive. We look forward to future stays in dragonfly.

    The Dragonfly House was a perfect home base for a busy graduation weekend. It had everything we needed. It would also be a great place to stay for a relaxing trip to explore Portland. There was a very well-stocked full kitchen. Andrea has thought of everything!

    Andrea was a joy to deal with, no problems with communication. Dragon Fly was as the pictures showed very nice. Lots of windows for natural light during the day time which we really like. All of the bedding's as well as the bed were fine. The kitchen was very well stocked. Very quiet neighborhood, did hear the train once and awhile no big deal. Grocery store and Starbucks were very close which was nice. The Dragon Fly is very well decorated and plenty of room for my wife and I. Lots of street parking even though the street is rather narrow. Would stay here again.

    The Dragonfly House is probably the best ABnB we’ve ever stayed in. Super cute little house that is so well decorated it’s pretty hard to beat. This was our second stay, and certainly won’t be our last.

    This was the perfect place in a cute neighborhood and exactly what we needed for our short stay in Portland. Loved the character of the house which just added to the relaxing and welcoming feel. Andrea was a great hostess... she even checked in to make sure we had arrived and were able to access the property all right. We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay again the next time in we are in Portland.

    Great little house that was super clean and inviting! We didn't use the kitchen but as I nosed around it appeared to be well stocked, we could have cooked up meals easily. For us, it was a good location, close to our kids, for others maybe not so much. Located in the Kenton area it is in a quiet neighborhood with adequate parking. Way comfortable bed and nice shower!

    This is an excellent choice to stay if you’re visiting the area with a spouse or partner. It had just the right amount of space for my wife and I. Andrea and Brad make sure the house has all the amenities you may need. There is plenty of things to do in the area. We enjoyed our stay and can’t wait to be back.
