As all other reviewers have said, this place is a *gem*! Even more spacious than the pictures show, styled to a T, every kind of kitchen gadget you want, and more toys and games than anyone could use in one stay. Our group of 6 professional women in our early 30s came into Portland for a birthday reunion, and we had everything we wanted and then some! The kitchen is HUGE! If we weren’t too busy trying to eat our way through the city, we could have cooked up a storm. The beds were comfortable, blackout curtains were perfect for helping us sleep in, the heated bathroom floors were a fan favorite, and of course we took full advantage of the hot tub for relaxing soaks and the fire pit for some outdoor evening drinks. The competition sized pool table was so fun (and a challenge—it’s a big one!). We also appreciated the desks tucked away in a few bedrooms and the main floor, since some of us had to work a bit between celebrations.
Don and Sarah were also extremely communicative, helpful, and friendly hosts. I love that they are locals and not just some huge company buying up property in my hometown. We were treated like long time family friends and exchanged recommendations for their next trip to SF. I’d send any of my friends or co-workers here knowing that they would have a fantastic stay. I’d love to come back in the summer to take advantage of the yard and bikes, but it was a little too chilly for that this time around.
