James was a wonderful host and even though he was out of town, he sent all the instructions well in advance and contact information if we needed anything. This was our first trip to Portland and this cottage was the absolute PERFECT place to stay. The cottage is so beautifully designed and functional that we cooked a whole dinner from what we bought at the farmer's market one evening! Just a couple blocks from all the adorable shops, amazing restaurants, and graffiti art on Alberta Street. We would 100% rebook this cottage for our next trip to Portland.
