About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire apartment to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Charming, Private, Detached Studio!

I have lived in Sellwood for over 20 years and, in our opinion, it's by far the best place to be in Portland... welcome! If you are coming for work, to visit with family, or simply want to explore and relax, you are sure to find comfort during your stay!

The Space
The private studio is very quiet, offering a cozy space you will quickly settle into. It has been built to match the style of the bungalow home built in 1915. While it doesn't have a kitchen, everything is new... refrigerator, toaster, coffee pour over, and hot water pitcher. All the furnishings, linens, and Smart TV... all are new. Very clean and comfortable, naturally cool in the summer (fantastic insulation), warm in the winter... this space is settled in the magical town of Sellwood. Many have shared that this is the best VRBO they have stayed in. We are grateful for the overwhelmingly positive response.

Guest access
We have a seasonal garden, a terraced, outside space in which you can listen to the soft sounds of a water feature.
Other things to note
Netflix is available!

Short Stay in Sellwood

Myself and my partner stayed at Scot’s place in Portland for a few nights - and it was amazing. He was super communicative and helpful, and the space had everything we needed for our stay. Not to mention, the location was GREAT. Food, coffee, retail - all within walking distance, so we barely had to drive at all during our stay. Highly highly recommend staying here :)

Brief hiccup with check in but this was resolved quickly and without issues. (Message with key code didn’t go through, however Scot was timely with his response and this didn’t impact our trip or stay at all.)

Ideal Sellwood location

This was a perfect place to stay for my Portland visit. a standalone studio; roomy, enough kitchen amenities (kettle, microwave, mini fridge), comfortable bed, and room to sit and enjoy a moment. Thoughtfully appointed with everything I needed. Spent the first part of my stay solo, them my partner joined me. Plenty of room for both of us. And the location couldn't be better, near parks, running trails, health-food store, and great food!

When I visit my daughter at Reed, I always look for something convenient, safe and cozy. I won’t have to look again as this will be my go-to for future visits! Great attention to detail and an easy walk to Portal Tea cafe where I spent hours working and drinking the best tea! Highly recommend!
