    This house is exactly as advertised. It was wonderful. The neighborhood is busy with great restaurants and shops, which we loved. We spent a lot of time outside at the picnic and ping pong tables.I would highly recommend!

    Great space for our group of 7 adults passing through Portland. The place made us wish we could stay longer! The space is great, the neighborhood has nice food options, and it's easy to get around by car.

    Property was beautifully located, well cared for and comfortable. It had everything we needed and our kids slept well with minimal noise or outside distractions. Sheets and towels were also comfortable. Would stay here again.

    This property was absolutely gorgeous and felt so homey. My family of 7 adults had ample room to relax, have our daily coffee gatherings and even a chat session in the outside garden. The location was a dream; lots of coffee shops, bars, restaurants --- the walkability was 10 out of 10! Would absolutely stay here again!

    We had a great time! House was beautiful for a friend reunion and great location. Had some confusion with the listing initially with the upper and lower levels being separate, but it was a great spot for us!

    My friends and I stayed here for our annual girls trip and it was perfect. The property was unique and made for some great photo ops. There are a lot of shops, restaurants, and bars within walking distance of the house and everything else is a short car ride away. The beds were also very comfortable. Would definitely stay here again!

    Safe and comfy, this central spot gives you a good home base and makes it easy to not only get around but fully experience all of what the Alberta arts district has to offer. Everyone in my group, young to old, loved something about our stay. The owners were easy to talk to, quick to answer, and very understanding. Would definitely stay again

    The property looked small at first, but exceeded my expectations. I was also a little worried that it was on a busy street, but I had the most restful sleep there of our entire vacation. Great neighborhood with good restaurants and interesting shops. I would stay there again. Parking on the street was subject to availability, but we were lucky.

    Accommodated all of our needs during our stay indoors and out. BBQ and ping pong were a bonus. Big open space and plenty of dishes, glasses and cutlery to accommodate our extended family for dinner.

    It’s in the Alberta Arts district. You cannot pick a better location or property. We loved every thing about it. We were a group of 7. Mix of kids, teenagers and adults. Lots of amazing restaurants around- and good options for skip or Uber eats for late night delivery.
