Susan was very helpful in pointing out things to do in Portland, and her cottage was simply a fantastic place to stay! My son and I were in Portland for the Fencing Junior Olympics and this was a very convenient and comfortable location. The neighborhood looks very well kept and feels like a pleasant area to live. The kitchen was very well equipped, we made our own breakfast every day, and even made our own dinner and lunch on occasion. My son and I felt the decor was very inviting, we always looked forward to getting back to the cottage when we were done with our activities for the day. If we ever are back in Portland, we are going to hope that Susan's rental is not already booked!
