Spacious Mid Century apartment - 5 min walk to Reed College

This cozy apartment has all you need for your visit to Portland! Features a bathroom with standing shower, bedroom with queen bed and a large open plan living room / dining room. The kitchen is fully equipped with stove, microwave, full size refrigerator and dishwasher. Warm up next to the gas fireplace, binge your favorite shows on the smart TV, or work remotely from the desk.

The apartment is located on the lower level of our home and can be accessed through a private entry patio with a code. The neighborhood is a mid-century dream with wide streets that are easily walkable. Located just a few blocks from Reed College in South East Portland, you can also easily walk to Trader Joes, cafes, restaurants, and parks. The bus is 2 blocks away, straight into downtown. Division, Woodstock, Sellwood and Hawthorne, some of the best commercial corridors in the city full of unique local, Portland restaurants, bars, cafes, theaters, shops, etc. are all within 10 minutes driving distance.

The apartment is totally private, but is the lower level of our family home and thus there may be some ambient noise (talking, walking, doors opening) that is audible during your stay. You may see our school-aged child or one of us coming and going from the house. Feel free to say "hello!"

Great place in lovely neighborhood

The apartment had everything we needed for our stay - a great neighborhood, comfortable bed, well-stocked kitchen, and nice living space. Our host responded quickly to our messages and was very helpful. While the apartment is located beneath the host's living space, it was very quiet. Would definitely stay here again.

Perfect apartment near Reed

This was a great apartment for visiting my daughter at Reed. Walking distance to the campus. Well outfitted with everything I needed including a small desk I could work at. The hosts were also very accommodating with an early check in request.

Wonderful Accommodations and Home Base!

We really enjoyed our stay at this VRBO location. The property was well maintained, very clean and quite! We felt like we could live in this location. The set up was super, lots of different seating areas, reading spots and places to hang out. The kitchen set up was super, the bathroom, shower and towels were all quality and made the time even more enjoyable. We found the bed and the bedroom set up very comfortable. We loved the easy to click on the gas fireplace, lay down on the comfortable couch and watch Prime! Our hosts were super responsive and answered any questions we had with speed and hospitality. We look forward to stay here again (our kids live in the area).

Fabulous!

I thoroughly enjoyed staying at Christine and Ian's home! Beautifully appointed, large and very welcoming. Located perfectly for me to spend my days with my family nearby and recuperate at night. Christine and Ian were very accommodating when I asked to amend my schedule. They were the most obliging and welcoming of hosts!

Great Stay!

This property met all my needs for a weeklong visit. Ian and Christine have provided everything needed for visitors to feel at home. The unit was spotless and the bed is very comfortable. It is located on a quiet street within a short drive to shopping and restaurants. It's helpful to know the thermostat to control the temperature is located in the owners home upstairs but the property was kept comfortable despite the extra warm week I was there. .
