This property was perfect for our group—just a short walk to Mississippi Street with a great coffee shop right next door. Having a parking spot was ideal, especially for driving to the wedding we were attending. Check-in and check-out were seamless, and the hosts were wonderful to work with!

I am thrilled the house worked so well for your visit to Portland. I agree Albina Press and all of the many locally owned business on Mississippi Ave are amazing to be so close to.

We had a great time in the house. The home is cozy and had everything we needed to make a memorable Thanksgiving meal with local family. The layout is great for giving privacy and together spaces. We loved the location and being able to walk to everything. So much great food and shops near by. This house is fun and we highly recommend. We would definately stay again. Thanks for being wonderful hosts.

Thank you so much for this beautiful review! We designed our houses with exactly those uses in mind- we wanted to have both large open spaces were groups can be all together and also some private spaces were a few people could tuck away into a conversation. And we want our guests to feel cozy and taken care of. I am thrilled you felt all of those things and that you enjoyed the ability to walk everywhere. Please do come back and stay again!
