Lovely place to stay in a great, walkable neighborhood

We had a wonderful stay at this property. The location is fantastic and the owner of the property was very responsive. The checkout process was very reasonable and easy (no over the top cleaning demands). I also appreciated the availability of some kids games and toys as we had our 4 and 5 year olds with us. I would definitely stay here again.

Excellent Expereince

Our team booked this venue for a company planning session, and it was absolutely perfect! The space was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped for both work and relaxation. The layout provided plenty of room for breakout discussions, and the common areas were great for team bonding. The kitchen was stocked with essentials, making team dinners easy, and the outdoor space was a wonderful bonus. The host is incredibly responsive and accommodating, ensuring we had everything we needed. Highly recommend this place for any group retreat or business gathering or just a staycation—our team left feeling inspired and refreshed! Thank you, Catie! Looking forward to using this venue in the future.

Just as described - perfect for our needs

We are a multi- generational family, adult children and granddaughters. The accommodations were perfect and fit the 7 of us comfortably. Lovely large living space for movies, games and meals. The hosts were quick to respond to any questions and needs. The location could not have been better for easy access to downtown, the zoo, coffee shops and restaurants. Easy trip to and from the airport.

Terrific Place for our 9 Family Members

The Villa is beautiful, with great spaces to cook, and gather together for meals, etx. The beds and rooms are all excellent (always important!) and all the amenities are lovely. Communications were always timely and check in a breeze! We could not have enjoyed our stay more. 9 family members had come west from the NYC area for a family wedding, and the Villa was perfect for a few days to relax before the big weekend.

Great house ok location. See notes.

The house was very good. We were looking for a roomy quiet vacation and this was it. Easley to communicate with the owner. The only issue really is the homeless situation /in Portland and the fact that there was a homeless camp directly across the street while we were there.

Great stay

My large family stayed at the house for my daughter’s graduation from college. It was a wonderful home to accommodate such a large group. The home is beautifully maintained and was perfect for our large group. The owner was super responsive and accommodating when addressing a small issue that came up. Although the weather prevented us from using the yard and rooftop deck, those were wonderful features of the property as well.

Villa in the city

We loved our stay! Upon entry, we immediately felt transported into a wine country oasis with the expansive space and elegant decor. Kitchen had everything we needed, though we didn't cook very much. The kids loved all the levels and the indoor and outdoor spaces. Extra kudos to the housekeeper for the spotless cleanliness of the space. Would definitely recommend and will rent again!

Caleb and I come from Ohio. So sure, we love Ohio - but love the PNW more. We are thankful that we now call Portland our home.

For fun - we hike A LOT, spending time in the forests with our dog around Mt Hood, in the Gorge, or on the coast. I enjoy practicing yoga and am a certified yoga teacher. Caleb plays and loves ice hockey.
We aim to be super considerate and delightful guests when we rent and to provide a clean, rad home when we host.
