Most Excellent

I was outstanding overall, we truly loved the vibe, blend of what appeared to be refurbished wood decor and modernized kitchen and bathrooms. Bedrooms were spacious and cozy. Walking distance to school/adjoining large grassed park and other amenities was ideal. Nice view of the city from on-suite bathroom.

Great house for family visits

The house is very spacious and has great living areas for comfortable stay for larger families. Nice bonus: guidebooks of the area. The only downside are the stairs which can be difficult to manage if you have any mobility issues.

A well cared for piece of history

I loved every part of this home. I did feel a little nervous being in the home because it is so beautifuly restored and obvious so much work has gone in to honoring the history of it, but that had nothing to do with the owners. Thank you so much for providing this space. Tge neighborhood provides just about everything a person or famiky needs. Neighborhood parks and playgrounds, food within walking distance. And the private parking in the little garage was a bonus. History everywhere. We would definitely stay again.

Lovely Christmas House

Our daughter lives in Portland (we live in CA) and had to work so this was the perfect house to call our home for our Christmas stay! Our host, Blake, went above and beyond by setting up a Christmas tree for us. Very comfortable family room and beds. The kitchen is lovely! We will reserve this house again on our next visit!!

Home Away From Home

We traveled to Portland to drop our son off at University of Portland. It was so nice to have a house for the four days of Orientation. We were able to all hang out, bbq, play dominoes and board games. Also, enough space to hang out by oneself and for me enjoy that delicious spa bath!! The weekend wouldn't have been so nice without this gorgeous house! Just divine!!

Great historic house in a convenient location

The house was spacious, clean and nicely located in the city. My family and I really enjoyed our time. We had plenty of space to have meals together and my teens appreciated having their own space to hang out.

Wonderful old house nicely remodeled

The place has wonderful ambience and excellent outdoor space. The kitchen is great. Noise from the nearby freeway is noticeable, but not problematic. In room air conditioners were a blessing in July!

Wonderful Historic Property

What a terrific historic masterpiece! Convenient location if your destination is by the convention center or on the East side of the river but also very easy access to downtown Portland. Very nicely appointed and that front porch is awesome. Would not change a thing. Thanks Blake for the great communication and hospitality.
