Historic 4BR · Walk to NW 23rd Shops & Dining

From your host

You're in the heart of NW Portland — one of the most walkable neighborhoods in the city, and one of the best for eating and drinking your way through a trip. NW 23rd Avenue is a few blocks away with restaurants, coffee shops, and boutiques lining both sides of the street. Salt & Straw is right on 23rd for Portland's famous handmade ice cream. Ringside Steakhouse is a Portland institution — old-school and worth every penny. Bamboo Sushi keeps things lighter with sustainably sourced rolls and great cocktails. Powell's City of Books is a short walk away — it's the world's largest independent bookstore and takes up an entire city block. Even if you're not a big reader, it's one of those Portland things you have to see. When you want to get outside, Forest Park offers miles of trails through forested scenery. The Japanese Garden and International Rose Test Garden are both nearby in Washington Park. And if you're visiting during soccer season, Providence Park is walking distance for Timbers and Thorns matches. A few of our favorites nearby: Salt & Straw — inventive seasonal ice cream (expect a line — worth it) · Ringside Steakhouse — a Portland classic since 1944 · Bamboo Sushi — sustainable sushi and cocktails · Powell's City of Books — an entire city block of books · Forest Park — urban hiking to explore · Providence Park — catch a Timbers or Thorns match NW Portland has its own personality — tree-lined streets, historic homes, and a neighborhood feel without sacrificing any of the restaurants and nightlife. Bus lines connect you with downtown; plan your routes around what you'd like to explore.
