'My husband and I were in Portland to surprise our daughter when her boyfriend asked for her hand in marriage! We were lucky to have found this charming little apartment for the week. It was just as the photos indicated - very nicely appointed and sparkling clean. It was in a prime location with great shopping and restaurants all within walking distance. The separate entrance was nice so that we didn't feel like we were intruding on our host family. Since we have a 'new family' in Portland, we will stay in this apartment in a heartbeat!'
'I had such a wonderful time staying in this apartment for the week. It was sparkling clean and had everything anyone could need while away from home. The neighborhood is perfect for walking. There are restaurants, shops, a library, coffee shops, bakeries, and a wonderful grocery store all within walking distance. I really hated to leave! The owner, Traci, is warm and more than accommodating!'
'At the last minute I decided to forgo staying at a hotel and my daughter found this lovely back of house apartment in the beautiful Sellwood neighborhood. It was perfect. Brand new accommodations in a quiet, tree-lined neighborhood where you could walk down the block and enjoy friendly crowd-filled coffee houses, antique stores, restaurants or discover that special organic-find at the local market. The apartment itself was doll-like, very clean (which I am fastidious about!) and could easily have been a model for a pottery barn ad. Perfect in every way. It was filled with everything you would need from coffee pots to silver ware should you chose to eat in. Lots of windows-making my morning coffee (provided by Traci of course) I could open the kitchen window and treat myself to fresh air to start my day. One unique and surprise feature was the heater nestled in the bathroom-a nicety you don't see very often and the bedroom was perfect-large, spacious closets and very comfy. The living room had a fireplace that was both warm and completed the feel of the apartment even if you did have to turn it on with a clicker. I highly recommend staying at this perfect rental and do so for a longer stay-I had only two nights and could have easily stayed for a week! Traci thought of everything and even provided us with a list of places to go and eat in her cardboard binder-she was a splendid host. I give it five stars!'
'My wife and I much enjoyed our stay in this apartment, indeed it is probably the best appointed and most elegantly designed apartment in which we have spent time (a week plus) in many years of travel. It has the advantage of being one of the few 'guesthouses' in Sellwood, so very well located for visitors such as ourselves coming to spend time with family living in that delightful area of Portland. And where else can you see Mt Hood through the kitchen sink window?!'
'The apartment is beautifully decorated and very comfortable. There was a perfectly framed peek-a-boo view of Mt Hood from the kitchen window. It seems newly completed and is located over the garage. The neighborhood has older homes and was great for walking and to many restaurants, Grand Central has coffee and great pastries nearby, Reverend's is delicious southern style BBQ about 2 blocks away, Gino's has a friendly neighborhood bar vibe with gourmet food. It was conveniently located a short (approx. 10 minute) drive to downtown Portland. The hosts were friendly and thoughtful.'
'Wonderful apartment! A brand new house - very very cosy, we did feel like home living there. It has anything you might need for a short or longer staying. Ken and Traci are perfect hosts and they did help us a lot to discover the neighborhood and Portland. We also never had a problem to park our car in front of the house - there was always a free space. Strongly recommended!'

We have stayed in Sellwood several times while visiting relatives. This was just a perfect place to stay for location. It is also beautiful - the hosts have thought of absolutely everything to make the stay easy and pleasant. I will never stay anywhere else....if it is available. Thank you!

Immaculate, nicely furnished and very comfortable apartment in Sellwood. Perfect for our month-long stay in Portland.

Excellent quality in every way. Charming, quiet, user-friendly, attractive apartment and neighborhood. Apartment was spacious and very clean with abundant natural light. Hosts were welcoming and attentive. We loved walking to get delicious carry-out meals, usually to enjoy in the apartment.
5.0
This apartment is wonderful. It’s cozy, bright, clean and the hosts are very responsive. The neighborhood is darling and very walkable, with beautiful houses and gardens, close to parks, river views, and Sellwood shops and restaurants. I wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again.
This is a perfect place to stay if you are visiting a Lewis and Clark student. It’s close to the school and makes a great home base for taking the kids out.

Traci is a great host - A+ communication before, during and after our stay. A perfect apartment to hang out and a great location for day trips to OMSI and the zoo. Walkable to great eats and parks. We’ll be back!

This was a last minute trip and the communication with Traci is why I chose this lovely place! It fit the bill perfectly! She was wonderful and the accommodations were perfect! Thank you!
5.0
We loved our stay at this beautiful property. Traci was kind, responsive and welcoming even though she and Ken were not in town for the days we were there. The apartment is very thoughtfully designed and decorated, with every comfort to make you feel at home. All of the finishes are of the highest quality, with detailed attention to what travelers need and didn’t even realize they did: reading lights in the right place, USB ports where they are super convenient, luxurious bedding, a cozy gas fireplace for cool days, and optimal use of natural lighting.We hope to return next time we are in Portland and can’t recommend this place highly enough.
5.0
We were pleased to return to this apartment this year and have another opportunity to stay here. There are so many little welcoming touches. Fresh flowers, cozy fireplace, available coffee, and a very easy to work TV.
It’s easy to reach the owner, but we felt as though we had complete privacy.
During our stay we were safe and comfortable and respected.
5.0
Everything about our stay was fantastic. The hosts were very communicative and flexible. The unit itself is nicely appointed and decorated and felt like home. They thought of everything and even had good coffee. The location really can’t be beat. Our college student we came to visit loves Sellwood. That’s her hang out. So we were in the heart of a neighborhood she loves within walking distance to everything. I really wanna stop here because we want this unit to be available next time we visit. An easy five stars, top to bottom. Thank you to our hosts!
5.0
I loved this place. It was a perfect retreat while in town for an art workshop. Very comfortable, private, quiet, and clean. The apartment is located above the garage and has a private entry. The home and neighborhood is beautiful. The only hiccup, and it was minor, was a mixup in the access the first day. However, the host was on site and resolved it immediately. So, no worries.
It is located in a cute downtown area and is very walkable. Try Kangaroo Coffee shop for morning coffee and the food trucks for a quick dinner.
The parking is street parking. I was able to find a spot each evening within one block of the apartment.
Easy access to Portland and many other nice communities.
I would stay again and I recommended it to several Art friends.

Very nice, private apartment as stated & pictured in the description. Great location & very close to everything you may need! Great neighborhood! Owner was very considerate & responsive about an issue that is sometimes out of our control. We would stay here again if timing works out.

The apartment/unit in the Sellwood area of Portland was exactly as posted, and even better! The place was so clean, spacious and cheery. Traci was easy to communicate with - very responsive and thoughtful.
The place is walking distance to some great restaurants and shops. So nice after a full day moving out son into college, to have to a number of food options within walking distance. We plan to come back and stay again!

We stayed at this lovely apartment for Labor Day weekend. Everything about it exceeded our expectations. The location is perfect. We walked to restaurants for every meal. It is a beautiful and very safe neighborhood. The apartment is spotless and seems like brand new. The bed is super comfy and the make down couch is great too. Our hostess kept us up to date and checked in with us periodically. We would definitely stay here again.

We don’t even know where to begin to sing praises for this exceptional VRBO property, and it’s host. Start with perfect walkable location in the most adorable Sellwood neighborhood, it’s cleanliness, it’s superb shower, comfy bed, favorite rocking chairs, heater in the immaculate bathroom, great fireplace, keyless entry, really strong Internet, and perfectly appointed living space — Traci has not forgotten any detail. The apartment is stocked with everything from olive oil and coffee to cushy towels and your choice of several styles of pillows! There is even a fridge with water and ice dispensers in the door.
We visited in February and March, while Portland snowed and rained and hailed almost every day. We so looked forward to returning home to warm by the gas logs. Traci was more than accommodating to every question or request we had! The most gracious host!
We will return again and again to visit our grandchildren (as long as I can climb the stairs to this private and quiet getaway)! Couldn’t have been happier.

A really fantastic sellwood gem. Nice design and actual comfortable furniture! Great hosts and perfect location. Right near coffee and restaurants,supermarket and pubs.

We came to the area for a family event. My husband and I stayed in this lovely, quiet, clean well appointed apartment above the garage behind the family’s home. The location is wonderful with restaurants, coffee shops, markets, stores and even a library branch nearby. The area has a small town feel even though it is close to busy Portland. We were able to find street parking but I wouldn’t say an abundance of spots. Somehow we managed to find the last spot nearby every time. The owner was very good with all necessary communications. We would stay again if we find ourselves back in the area.
5.0
What a wonderful apartment and location! Traci has thought of everything in this well-stocked and comfortable apartment, which was spotlessly clean and a perfect homebase to explore the neighborhood. There are lots of great shops and restaurants in easy walking distance and there’s a beautiful park just down the street. This spot is definitely a gem!

This cute little spot was just perfect for our weekend stay. It is close to shops and eating spots yet affords some privacy. The old neighborhood with beautiful old trees is lovely.
The owners went to great lengths to insure that our visit was comfortable. They anticipate needs and provide so many little touches to make things comfy. The handbook and guide they provide leaves very clear directions and was especially helpful. The owners also helped us through our day when a storm unexpectedly knocked out power for several hours. They kept in touch with power updates as well as suggestions to stay fed and comfy.
Could not be more pleased with this property.

The property owner was super kind and thoughtful during our visit to Portland to drop our son off at college. It’s a beautiful property in a fun area with lots of great restaurants within walking distance. Will return to this property again for certain.

My husband and I had amazing 2 weeks!

I was visiting my daughter for 2 weeks and had to work remotely part of the time. The connection was great. It was quiet. Really a wonderful experience. Traci was very attentive without being nosey. She was gracious and understanding even when I missed one of the rules. I would recommend this lovely apartment anytime and hopefully it will be available the next time we are in the area to visit.

The ideal VRBO!
Our host made sure we had everything we needed PLUS the apartment is attractive and comfortable. There are ample kitchen supplies and a lovely market is within walking distance. Sellwood is charming and offers are a variety of places to eat any meal, within walking distance.
What we needed to know about our stay was clearly communicated in a timely manner. Our host even checked in a day before we left to see if we needed anything.
If you are looking for a true taste of Portland, we highly recommend this apartment as your home away from home!

We spent three nights here while visiting our son who lives nearby. The apartment is beautiful and located in an equally lovely quiet neighborhood. We never had difficulty finding on street parking. Shops, restaurants, and groceries are within walking distance. We hope to stay again the next time we visit!

I rented this for my sister, who was in town for my daughter's wedding. My sister was very impressed with the space. Everything she needed was there (coffee, tea) the bed was comfy and it is within walking distance to several Sellwood restaurants and a bakery. Traci was helpful and sent detailed instructions and a video ahead of time. A friend joined my sister on the very last night and slept on the couch rather than the sleeper mattress/pull-out bed because she said it was more comfortable-- that's the only reason the overall rating isn't also 5 stars but honestly, we loved the place. Both my sister and friend asked for the address and plan to use it again. Thanks Traci!
