Helen and Ethan's cottage was a wonderful place from which to base a few days in Portland. The cottage itself was very comfortable and new, with lots of attention to detail. It's very private with a nice amount of space for 1 or 2. About a 15 minute walk to the Alberta Arts District or to McMenamins' Kennedy School. About a 15-20 minute drive from downtown Portland. I hope this cottage is available for my next trip to Portland.
