Stephanie's place was just as portrayed in the photos - bright, clean, and charming! She was also easy to communicate with. We had two dogs and they loved sniffing and napping in the spacious yard on a sunny Portland weekend. Stephanie also kindly provided some treats and a towel to wipe their feet. The location is great for many excellent restaurants and shops in SE Portland. We ate out, but if you plan on cooking the kitchen has just the basics so you might want to BYO items. This is a great home base to explore Portland!
