We loved the location and proximity to food and shopping. Had the weather been nice, I’m sure we would have used the nice outdoor spaces. I’ve rented a lot of homes and this one ranks with some of the best.

Great space for a small work retreat!

Our 12-person team needed a space that could act as accommodations our non-Portlanders (7 total) and operate as a homebase during our week-long retreat. This home was perfect! Location was ideal, communication was clear, and space was perfect for us to meet during the day but allowed people to spread out and take their personal time during the evening. While maybe not a typical spot for a small team retreat would definitely recommend!
