The Old Portland Charmer is a beautifully restored, spacious home that was walkable to Washington Park, the riverfront and the lightrail. The house occupies three levels and has a peaceful outdoor space for spreading out. We really enjoyed our stay.

Centrally located, family fun!
Host was very helpful and communicative, the space was modern and clean, parking was great as the whole family needed a home base as we explored Portland together. Plenty of space inside, and great backyard space too. Strongly recommended!

Beautiful Home in Nob Hill
We LOVED our stay here!!! The home is STUNNING!!! Every detail has been attended to!! The interior is decorated beautifully, and the exterior of the home is so striking!! This is a true showpiece!! The kitchen is gorgeous and has every amenity one could ask for! We loved the double staircase leading to the second level where the bedrooms are located! The master bedroom and bath were absolutely lovely, and the master shower was incredible!! We have two teenagers, and the shared bathroom between the two guest rooms was very spacious!! No detail was overlooked!! The third floor has a HUGE playroom with ping pong table, TV and great seating!! The outdoor space was inviting and private!!! The location was great-close to lots of restaurants and shops!! Very easy walking distance to Providence Park!! I would highly recommend staying here-you will not be disposed!!!

Summer Trip
We spent 4 nights in Portland and chose this house based mostly on the location. The house is basically brand new inside. It's beautiful, comfortable and bigger than it appears in thr pictures. Everything was in perfect condition, kitchen had everything we needed and the showers were fantastic...like a spa shower. We had some questions along the way and the owners were always quick to respond and offer suggestions for food and fun. I can't say a negative thing about it and would recommend it to anyone looking to stay in a fun part of Portland.
