Great little cottage tucked away from the street. May have been small, but it felt roomy. Great kitchen set up and very clean. Nice digs.We pretty much walked everywhere we wanted to go. The neighborhood is very charming and felt very safe. Parking was spotty. There is EV charging in the driveway but looks like it’s for communal, first come first serve use. No worries. We parked our gas guzzler in the street.

The place is as advertised. Love the location. Stumptown is right around the corner, with plenty of restaurants nearby. We didnt need to use the car much. The owners were attentive and flexible. We were able to get an early check in, and a later check out. When visiting Portland again, will definitely look to rebook.

All the Stars!!! Perfect Spot, Place & Host

The inside was spotless with great PNW vibes. Everything you could want is in quick walking distance and it was also within a convenient drive to the airport. Our host was so friendly and accommodating. He even helped let us in when we arrived in the dark and gave us some flexibility on checkout time as well. Highly recommend.

About the host

Hosted by Dan Kent

Host profile image
We're a Portland family with three kids and two dogs. Dan runs a West Coast environmental nonprofit and Tami is a physical therapist, founder of an alternative health care practice, and an author. The kids are 19, 16, and 12. As for the dogs, Moka is a 8-year-old German shepherd and Timber (go Timbers!) is a 5-year-old French bulldog. The dogs reside entirely in the main house but you may catch a glimpse of Timber in the backyard.

Why they chose this property

After nearly twenty years of living just a few blocks awayon this same street, we were inspired to buy and restore the main 1907 house a few years ago with the intention to also build the eco cottage as a quiet urban retreat for friends, family, and our VRBO guests. The cottage was in construction for more than a year and was completed in December 2017.

What makes this property unique

We've restored several vintage houses and we brought all of that experience to this first new construction project with the goal of maximizing the ecological sustainability of the project and ensuring exceptional beauty of materials, natural light, and indoor air quality for our guests.
