Fantastic Launching Pad for all that Portland Offers!

Our duplex home is in a residential neighborhood, minutes from downtown, the
Pearl District and Portland's old school Nob Hill. A perfect launching pad for all that
Portland offers: great restaurants, our famous food truck scene and art galleries.
As vetted Premier Hosts, we've created a space using our knowledge of what travelers are looking for when booking their next vacation or business trip.
Our home is set up with two bedrooms and two full bathrooms, one with a walk-in shower and one bathtub. Perfect for traveling families, friends and co-workers. We’ve hosted them all, here!
Many of Portland’s famous attractions are just minutes away: Hoyt Arboretum, Oregon Zoo, the Rose Test Garden and Japanese Garden - to name a few.
Here to catch a Timbers or Thorns game in Soccer City - we are a short 10 minute drive or keep it simple and take Trimet bus #20 door to door!
Live like a local and walk down 23rd Avenue, shop small and local. Enjoy a local pint of beer and snack in some of our great restaurants. Prior to your arrival, we will send you a list of our favorites - so, you can start planning your trip before you arrive.
Our location is close to St. Vincent’s Hospital and many other medical and surgical centers. We’ve hosted many families traveling to support their sick loved one or recover from surgery before heading back home. Let us know how we can help and we will do our best to make this end of your visit stress free.
Upon arrival, we have a selection of local beverages, tea, coffee and a few snacks to get you through a late arrival and first morning cup of coffee. Our kitchen is stocked with essential items and a few extras we like to have on hand for our guests.
As native Oregonians, we look forward to hosting you and are happy to help with travel plans and questions before and during your stay!
Ring camera installed in entrance area.

Central location and very clean
This property is centrally located to downtown Portland, the south suburbs and Vancouver. It is inviting and felt very comfortable to relax after all day site-seeing! The kitchen, bathrooms and rooms are very clean and nicely decorated. You are not walking distance to groceries or entertainment, but can enjoy a pleasant walk to a mini market and neighborhood bar. Shannon was excellent in her communications and very responsive. Check-in process was super easy, but don’t get nervous if the code doesn’t come within the 24 hours mentioned. Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Thank you!

Great home base to explore Portland!
This was a great place for us to stay while doing day trips in and around Portland! The home was clean and very well equipped! The hosts were very responsive with any questions during our stay and we were happy with the quiet location. The furnishings were all updated and the bedding was very comfortable - which is not always the case! If you’re looking for a comfortable home base in Portland we highly recommend!

Felt Like Home
This place deserves a higher rating than 5. We slept like we were in our own beds. Mattress and pillows were extremely comfortable. The unit had all the items we needed for entertainment, eating and relaxing. The location was convenient to the Pearl District, Powell's Books, Portland Japanese Gardens, Pittock Mansion, with a pleasant scenic drive to Haystack Rock and Silver Falls, also several venues for concerts. The owner communication was by far the best I have ever had renting a VRBO.

Perfect location
The place was beautiful and clean ( all linens smelled freshly laundered) perfect for my family. Host had some goodies in the fridge that were so welcoming after a drive there. Enough space for the teens to spread out after our day trips in the car and great location for all the activities we had planned.
