Let me start with saying that James was absolutely wonderful and went above and beyond to accommodate an address the small issues we had while staying. The hot tub unfortunately was out of order during our stay and needed full replacement, but James was accommodating to our booking because of that. The hot water proved to be enough for a soak in the tub however, there was a leak when I went to re…

This is a great place to stay if you want a modern home to crash at while exploring Portland with a number of adults or couples. The two top levels of bedrooms allow for both paired intimacy and privacy. Make sure to draw straws on who has to stay in the bottom floor bedroom ahead of time 😂❤️ If you are needing a kitchen to do lots of cooking in you won’t find everything you need but if you’re…

We had a lovely stay at this beautiful cabin. It’s very well furnished, cosy, and truly feels like a home away from home. It was the perfect spot for a romantic birthday weekend, and we especially loved relaxing in the hot tub. The house was very clean and cle…

David's place was such a great choice in the area, within less than a five minute walk you can be at a coffee shop, bar, or restaurant. There was also a little bodega shop 1 minute down the block. If you're looking for a walkable location (within very short dr…

My friends and I (group of 8) stayed at Darise’s Airbnb and it was an excellent experience! The Airbnb was very accommodating for our large group and located centrally for all of our activities including walking to many cafes and restaurants nearby!

This place was perfect! Communication was easy and the rental was gorgeous! It was a little chilly but we were provided with a complimentary bundle of wood, just bring some blankets if it’s cold when you’ve booked just in case ! The fenced yard was perfect for…

Another lovely stay at Connor’s place! He was very responsive and always helpful. Will definitely be back!
Abigail
Aj’s tiny home was nice and cozy, and just what we needed for our short staycation in Portland. Obviously a tight space, but worth it for the experience! Plenty of food options within walking distance too. Highly recommend!

Great location to get around. Place was clean and had everything you need. While the description mentioned the school, I didn’t expect the noise to be constant from like 7:30am until close to 6pm and it’s pretty loud. Might not be the best option if you plan t…

Great stay. I had some trouble with the keypad getting in when we got back from dinner. The host was extremely responsive and aided the situation beautifully.
