We were in town for an extended family gathering for the Xmas holidays. My family has been in the restaurant business for a couple of generations - so everyone contributes to family meals by bringing dishes we’ve discovered over the year. Anyway, we were looking for a place with a full kitchen that would be easy for three of us to work in. This lovely gem had this and so much more, exceeding all our expectations. The best: our host, who’s incredibly thoughtful and gracious, esp in accommodating questions and general holiday angst over weather. The house is spotless and well-stocked with linens, comfy beds and sofas, and warm blankets. And Laurelhurst is ground zero for the best markets in PDX!
There’s so much personality in this space - books, art, little mementos of travel - I know there are stories behind all of these treasures and just wish we had more time to discover them… which means we’ll definitely seek out this lovely gem on our next trip to PDX.
