Excellent apartment near Back Cove

We had a delightful stay in Beth’s super clean and well setup apartment. It was located just a block from Back Cove providing good walking opportunities. It is about 2 miles from downtown Portland, but we didn’t have any problems driving in and parking for everything we wanted to do. Kitchen is well equipped. Comfortable living room seating. King bed was great. If I had to search for a negative, did not love the washer dryer combo. Everything else was perfect.

This place is a gem. So well appointed, comfy bed. Beth was a delight to deal with; communication was open and easy. Everything we wanted and needed was no more than an eight minute drive. Water views were an added bonus! Will definitely stay here again when it's just the two of us.
