This VRBO was perfect for us. The location is beautiful and peaceful and we loved all the little extra activities provided onsite. The beds were very comfortable and the place very clean. The hosts were great and very responsive. We would definitely return if we are in the area again.

Loved this property very much! Very well taken care of and loved. An oasis right in the city. The owners are clearly thoughtful, sweet, joy seeking environmental lovers. The only slightly confusing aspect was communicating with the vrbo “host” and the actual property owners. The “host” was more demanding and far less flexible whereas the actual property owners were delightful and super responsive. If there could be a mainstreamed form of communication (ideally with just the real owners and hosts) rather than with both that would be ideal. Would totally love to visit again at some point! Definitely recommend.

An absolutely fantastic stay in Portland! We felt so safe and taken care of and the kids loved the chalk board. It truly felt like more than a vacation rental but more like Bed and Breakfast. Truly adorable and homey and the property was beautiful. Wish we could’ve stayed longer!
