NEWLY RENOVATED Tranquil Forest Paradise. Bright & Open-Plan. Groups of 8.

My sister and I spent a week at this charming home in a beautiful area of Portland and overall had an enjoyable stay. The location was ideal—quiet, picturesque, and conveniently close to a grocery store. The host was incredibly responsive and communicative, answering our questions quickly and making the check-in process smooth.The house itself had a lot of character, with comfortable beds, well-equipped bathrooms, and a cozy TV room that made for relaxing evenings. We especially appreciated the well-stocked kitchen and the opportunity to browse the owner’s eclectic and inspiring book and art collections.That said, we were a little surprised upon arrival to discover that the home is clearly the owner’s full-time residence, with many personal items still out in the open—shower products, clothing in closets, personal items (including a passport) on the counter, and signs of daily life throughout the space. While we understand some homes are lived in when not rented, we felt it would have been more comfortable if these personal effects were stored away or secured.Additionally, the carpeting was heavily worn, stained in several areas, and had a noticeable pet odor, which detracted from the overall experience. That said, we made the best of it, and despite these concerns, we still enjoyed our stay and appreciated the host’s hospitality and the unique character of the home.

Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this spacious and picturesque home nestled in the forest. Surrounded by nature and in close proximity to Portland's attractions, we had a wonderful time during our weeklong stay. Our host was amazing and ensured that we felt right at home. We would definitely recommend visiting this property if you are ever in the Portland area.

The spacious house had three bedrooms and a fourth room to be used as a bedroom. There was plenty of space to spread out. The kitchen was well furnished and a pleasure to use for our meals in. The house is in a residential neighborhood near parks. It was beautiful for walks though a steep grade for older people. The house had everything we needed for our stay, and Julia was an excellent and communicative host. We would love to stay again.

Staying in this house was a delight! We felt like we were in a tree house, with the back deck and surrounded by trees. Getting into Portland was easy and quick. We also used Uber and door dash when we didn't feel like driving. The house is very clean and well appointed, and there is room for 3 vehicles. Very happy with our choice!
