Erin’s cottage was the perfect home base for us while visiting friends and family in Portland. The space was clean, quiet, very well decorated and private. The outdoor patio was a total plus for enjoying the sun while we worked from home for a portion of the trip. Erin left delicious local treats like chocolate and wine and the guide book was well thought out. We walked to Sparrow in the mornings (only a few blocks from the cottage for incredible baked goods and coffee). We asked Erin for some local thrift store recommendations and she gave us a list of truly wonderful spots that had just the types of items we were looking for (farmhouse type/charming antiques and home decor). Definitely check out Forest Park for hiking, too. This is our new favorite Airbnb in Portland and we will be back!
