This is a neat little place pretty close to so many things in Portland. We came specifically to go to Powell’s and try some local favorites and the location made that really easy. It was nice to sit outside and both see and hear different types of birds. The street is quiet even though it’s only a few blocks from shops, restaurants, and other things to do. We enjoyed our stay at the barn and would stay here again.
I would stay there again in a heartbeat! Wonderful place. In fact, I wish there had been more time to enjoy it (was in town for a conference) because it’s the perfect environment to hide away for a couple of days. The location is phenomenal, with top notch food/coffee options on a block or two away.The owner was great with communication and a very warm host.I highly recommend all around!
My sister and I loved the home, all the amenities and location. It had easy walking access to grocery stores and restaurants. We had a wonderful, relaxing experience, spending quality time together and exploring Portland.
We would love to visit again!
The "Barn" is very upscale, beautiful and comfortable. In addition, the location is perfect - walking distance to coffee shops, restaurants, pubs and shopping.
Loved this spot and look forward to coming back!
We truly enjoyed our stay. The property was clean, spacious, and very well equipped. Lots of dining options close by and beautiful neighborhoods to explore.
Loved our stay at the PDX urban barn. Walked over to nossa familia coffee shop for our morning coffee each day. Delicious! Then it was over to new seasons market for snacks. All kinds of amazing foods, coffee, and beer in Portland. Truly a foodie destination. All amazing! Did a few hikes in the Columbia River Gorge including Multnomah Falls. The views were stunning. Took a day trip to the Oregon coast (Cannon Beach). Majestic! Topped it off with a couple days in Eugene for the US track and field Olympic trials. We had a blast! Got to see Sydney McLaughlin Lerone break the world record!
What a great vacation!

We loved staying at the Urban Barn. I liked how it was built to commemorate an old beloved barn that once existed on the site. Also enjoyed the decor and appreciated the efforts to recycle and be “green”. Very artful place. 😊
The neighborhood has all you need within a few blocks. The owner/manager promptly responded to my questions about the door lock and the neighbor's flood lamp that shone into the main living area 24 h a day. I would definitely stay here again. Thank you!
This home was just what we were looking for...Close to so many restaurants, shops and within walking distance to my son and his family. Perfect for three people. Susan was wonderful. Thank you for a perfect week. M
If you are traveling to Portland and want a true Portland experience in your lodging while feeling right at home, you need to stay in the “Urban Barn”. This beautifully decorated home in a typically wonderful Portland neighborhood is so comfortable and nice in every way. We immediately felt at home and the location was a perfect home base for our trip to Portland. Southeast Portland such great area. Lots of great restaurant and shops you can walk to and enjoy. So many wonderful places to see and things to do in easy driving distance. Susan, the owner , make the check in / out experience easy and seamless. She is very accommodating and her communication and helpful. She really wants you to have a great stay and enjoy all that Portland has to offer. I can’t say enough nice things about her and then”Barn”. I wish I could give more than 5 stars. 10 would be much more appropriate. By far the best VRBO we have rented. Don’t miss this place if you visit Portland!
Susan was incredibly responsive and helpful, the place was well-stocked with kitchen and bathroom essentials, the bed was as comfortable as any I’ve ever slept on, and there was tons within walking distance. Our kids loved the back patio. If I had any feedback it would be that arriving at night, it would have been helpful to have the outside lights on to make entry smoother.
The Urban Barn was even more than we expected. The design, floor plan and decor were "architectural digest" quality. Loved the secluded patio. Couldn't have been more charming. We will come back & refer our friends!
Thanks for a wonderful stay.
It was a nice stay at Susan’s place — very well stocked and a great location.

About the host
Hosted by Susan Moray
I've lived in Portland's Ladd's Addition neighborhood since 1992 originally hailing from L.A. and living for a few years each in NYC, Maui and the eastern Sierra Mountains. Hospitality is in my DNA, having previously managed vacation rentals in Nicaragua and on Maui. I'm a passionate backpacker, fly fisher and cyclist and gardener, growing perennials and organic vegetables. I love to eat and seek out new fine dining opportunities as well as unique food trucks and I'm happy to share them with you. During your stay, I can lay low, offering privacy or be a resource for your intro to Portland's many interesting offerings. For inspiration, these evocative words speak volumes to me.
