Having never been to Portland before I thought we might be a bit far from the downtown area but once we arrived and drove around the city, we realized we were right in the middle of the area we wanted to spend our time in. The cottage has everything you could need for a cozy stop and air conditioned. We loved the neighbourhood, Sherry was able to give us some great recommendations. We had a wonderful time and we would love to come back if a trip to Portland comes up again!
