Overall the stay was okay. We had an issue with the WiFi code - two of the members from our group of six had to wrap up work the afternoon/evening of our arrival and couldn’t log on as we were given the wrong code. It took the property manager at least five hours to get back to us with the correct code. There are no towel racks in either bathroom and only one hook on one of the three bedroom doors in which to hang your towel. There were six of us. We had to hang our towels over the bedroom doors in order to dry. Ceiling light bulbs need to be changed and some of the bedroom table lamps are ready to fall apart. The kitchen needs to be stocked with large serving bowls and platters. It didn’t have any serving bowls to put side dishes or chips in for dinner and no platters for cheese and crackers or carved meats. The deck furniture is not at all as pictured. Only four individual chairs and one is truly ready to collapse. There is a bench for seating on the deck but is so low that when you sit down your face is parallel to the hard plastic white banquet table that has been put out there for dining purposes. The cushions on the deck for the furniture are not meant for the furniture at all. All of this could be taken care of by the property manager and an investment in all new deck furniture. Overall, if these items are taken care of and the house was given a little more TLC, I would raise my score to a 4.5. For now, my score is a 3.5.

Excellent home overall! Great equipment, great kitchen, great pool, nice patio! Easy access to the home and driveway! Probably the best house I’ve stayed in !

I live in California, but my son was married in Portland (our home state). We spent a long weekend close to family and wedding activities. This is a comfortable home, in a great location. I feel fortunate to have chosen the perfect VRBO.

We had a wonderful weekend with family at this nicely appointed space that is close to downtown Portland. We all enjoyed swimming in the pool and hanging out on the deck.

Pictures are often times inflated but these pictures undersold how perfect this place was. The house was great but the pool was the kicker. We had a blast and would try to book this anytime we are in Portland.
