Great location near everything
Property well managed and very clean, all facilities and close to shops. Neighbourhood very safe for walking around
This house was such a delight to stay in. It was bright, light-filled, very clean, and quiet. The kitchen and baths were so well stocked. The location is perfect for eating out, shopping and exercising. Staying here was truly the highlight of our vacation.
We were up for a home improvement week helping our kids with their older home, and stayed at this perfect home for our needs! Great quiet location, plenty of parking for two larger trucks on the street, super clean home, great bathrooms, roomy family room to relax after long days of work. We will definitely be staying here again as we come for future visits! A+++
The house was clean, well appointed, quiet and comfortable. Our hosts were very helpful.
The house was super clean and very, very well arranged for our family of 4 adults. Just fyi, there is a door at the botttom of the stairs to the 3rd bedroom, providing privacy. (We weren’t sure from the listing.) The residential neighborhood is beautiful, full of lovely craftsman houses. We loved walking to beautiful Laurelhurst Park every morning. We felt very safe walking in the neighborhood. The house is equally close to a huge Safeway in one direction and Whole Foods in the other. There are lots of restaurants close by. The a/c worked great during a heat wave.
This was our third stay. This time my 89 yr old Dad and his wife joined us. We had a wonderful time visiting my son and his girlfriend. We took walks, talked over coffee, cooked dinner, dined out, went on road trips, and played games in the house. It is the perfect house, in the perfect location. We love staying there.
Great property, great location. Would stay again.
The property was centrally located surrounded by charming houses. The place was comfortable and plenty of room. The owner does live next door, and as we had an old friend visiting, I was concerned needlessly that our late night reminiscing might be disturbing. This never seemed to be an issue and we did respect the house rules as agreed upon. It is a clean, open space with room for up to 8, with 2 more beds upstairs. Having lived in Portland before, the location couldn't have been better. We absolutely had a great time!
This is a well equipped rental in a very walkable neighborhood. The bedrooms are cozy, the kitchen has most everything you might need, and the living room and dining room are light filled and lovely, looking out over the beautiful trees that make Portland such a visual treat. This is our second time visiting this house. It has maintained all of the attributes that I looked for the first time. The hosts are friendly, and get back to any inquiries quickly. We had a very relaxing get-away.
We really enjoyed our stay in Portland. Great location and the house was adorable. Had all the amenities needed plus!
Peaceful, quiet, spacious. Lovely backyard and beautiful old growth tree that can be seen from kitchen window.
House was clean and ready upon arrival, which was LATE due to delayed flights. Laurie left the lights on for us, which was a welcome gesture. House is close to a bus line, which made it easy to get around.
This house was so cute and clean! We loved the openness of the floorplan and the large bay window in the den, as well as the basement space. The beds were all so comfortable and the bedding was so amazing that I came right home and ordered exactly the same for our beds! The property owners were so gracious and there were fresh flowers in every room. We had a wonderful time and we will be requesting this property again when we return to Portland in the future.
A very well kept home with good amenities, good communication with owners, down to earth folks, great location near public transit and a lovely community,
Clean, bright, lots of space. Kitchen, bathroom, and laundry have everything you need. Great location on a quiet street with a lovely, private yard. Closet full of games, smart TV, maps and travel guides. There’s no reason to look elsewhere. I love this spot.
