Had a wonderful first visit to Portland and absolutely loved staying in Martha's cottage. Being Portland, it rained quite a bit, so it was nice returning to a warm, cozy house with everything we needed. Martha was great about communicating with us before and during the trip and gave us great recommendations to add to our list of things to do. Her place is walking distance from shops and restaurants, but when getting across the river we either used public transportation, Lyft, or rented bikes (on the sunny days).
If you visit on a Thursday, check out Live Wire at the Alberta Rose Theatre close by!
