Great cottage in a beautiful Portland neighborhood. Since this is a family’s home there were many extras available in the kitchen. It being dog friendly was a plus since we were traveling with our dog. The only slight issue was with heating. The host controls the thermostat and he kept it quite chilly. We visited at the end of December and the thermostat was at 61 degrees in the day and 56 degrees at night. I requested additional heat twice and the host increased the temperature for awhile; however it was eventually turned back down. I never received a reply to my third request.
