Very good
10.0
The property looked small at first, but exceeded my expectations. I was also a little worried that it was on a busy street, but I had the most restful sleep there of our entire vacation. Great neighborhood with good restaurants and interesting shops. I would stay there again. Parking on the street was subject to availability, but we were lucky.

Accommodated all of our needs during our stay indoors and out. BBQ and ping pong were a bonus. Big open space and plenty of dishes, glasses and cutlery to accommodate our extended family for dinner.

It’s in the Alberta Arts district. You cannot pick a better location or property. We loved every thing about it. We were a group of 7. Mix of kids, teenagers and adults.
Lots of amazing restaurants around- and good options for skip or Uber eats for late night delivery.

We rented this house to spend a long weekend over thanksgiving break with our family in Portland. It was a wonderful location, cool artsy vibe, and plenty of room for everyone. The owners have done a wonderful job remodeling this classic Gem. We will be back. Thank you!

Adorable place right in the Alberta art district near to one of my favorite sushi spots. Clean property. Lots to do in the area. Safe neighborhood.

Stylish, spacious, great location! Hosts have carefully considered the comfort of their guests and made their property one of the best short term rentals I have ever enjoyed. Six adults and two dogs had a great stay.

We had an amazing time and the house was a big part of that. Perfectly located with shops and restaurants right outside your front door yet still private. You can't ask for a better place to stay.

Such a pleasure to have stayed here! Family vacation with 6 adults, plenty of room and thoughtfully furnished with all the essentials. Comfortable beds, house was well insulated so we couldn’t hear anyone below us or in the bedrooms at night. Kitchen and baths were roomy and also fully furnished. Awesome location with great restaurants nearby and convenient a large number of Portland activities.
Michelle and Klaus were super hosts, offering lots of great suggestions. Highly recommend!

The house is well stocked, modern and comfortable, and plenty of room for our group to spread out. We loved the location as well; right across the street from some of the best coffee and chai in Portland.

We spend the holidays in this lovely and well equipped home. Lots of room to spread out, and the 6 of us never felt cramped even with the snow and ice in Portland the first few days that kept us inside more than we expected.
Kitchen was perfect for preparing our holiday meals, and the living room provided the space to watch our December tradition of the Great British Baking Show.
Loved the neighborhood. Great options for food and drink, and the people were always friendly.
Portland is a winner! We will certainly try to visit again.

Great neighborhood
We enjoyed our stay very much. There were so many unique restaurants and shops steps away from our house. Michelle is a wonderful host and stopped by to say hello as she was out wandering the neighborhood. The house is clean and well equipped with whatever you may need. Beds are super comfy. We were able to get up and walk our dog to Alberta Park where there is a place you can have the dogs off leash. Parking is easy in the streets right off of Alberta and we found it to not be very difficult to get out of the city to explore some river beaches.
Highly recommend this house. Eileen

Comfortable, clean house in perfect location
We had an excellent time on our trip to Portland. The house easily accommodated the 5 of us (4 adults + 1 toddler). We enjoyed the surrounding neighborhood and in particular, rolling out of bed and walking across the street for breakfast at the Tin Shed. I would definitely stay here again whenever we visit Portland.

Great location
The house is great and the location is great as well. There is a unit below this one, so there is a need to be quiet during later evening hours.
