Thanksgiving trip to see our family
We rented this house to spend a long weekend over thanksgiving break with our family in Portland. It was a wonderful location, cool artsy vibe, and plenty of room for everyone. The owners have done a wonderful job remodeling this classic Gem. We will be back. Thank you!

Cute location in heart of Alberta arts district
Adorable place right in the Alberta art district near to one of my favorite sushi spots. Clean property. Lots to do in the area. Safe neighborhood. 4 stars because I wish there was some coffee available in the morning.

Stylish, spacious, great location! Hosts have carefully considered the comfort of their guests and made their property one of the best short term rentals I have ever enjoyed. Six adults and two dogs had a great stay.

Perfect Location for Fun
We had an amazing time and the house was a big part of that. Perfectly located with shops and restaurants right outside your front door yet still private. You can't ask for a better place to stay.

Wonderful property/Ideal location
Such a pleasure to have stayed here! Family vacation with 6 adults, plenty of room and thoughtfully furnished with all the essentials. Comfortable beds, house was well insulated so we couldn’t hear anyone below us or in the bedrooms at night. Kitchen and baths were roomy and also fully furnished. Awesome location with great restaurants nearby and convenient a large number of Portland activities. Michelle and Klaus were super hosts, offering lots of great suggestions. Highly recommend!
