  We enjoyed our stay very much. Everything is as advertised and the owner's assistant who lives in the main house was extremely accommodating and welcoming. In fact, her husband helped us jump our dead car battery, a much appreciated kindness. The little home is very light and extremely well done. Our only complaint is that the kitchen table needs to be stabilized. We had great weather and the nearby Mississippi neighborhood is fun to explore. We would return again, for sure.

  We have had pretty exceptional luck with VRBO properties all around the world- I have to say that this Mississippi District cottage was one of the best experiences. We give it high marks for location, functionality, cleanliness and comfort- but the highest were earned by the owners and on-site caretakers who go above and beyond the call of duty. Location: Easy walk to Mississippi window-shopping, eating, people watching and bit longer but doable to Alberta Arts. Public transport downtown is very accessible The Space: It is such an adorable home. Hard to imagine that it is physically as small as it is-- once you're there is seems perfectly roomy. We felt very relaxed, and had no problem with our 1 year old also scooting about. If it's nice, the garden adds great space. The kitchen is clean and well-stocked: everything you would need to cook a "real" meal if going out repeatedly seems tiresome. The only thing that is not completely effortless is adjusting the dinette/sofa which I never got the full hang of. The People: Each and every interaction I had with both Stephanie (owner) and Lacey/Nathan (onsite) was prompt, respectful and always even more helpful than expected. Stephanie was very thorough with all the details and quick with answering and accommodating requests; L & N somehow managed to give us complete privacy while at the same time knowing exactly when/what we needed. Honestly, they all make up the dream-team VRBOwners. I will stay here again, and will recommend to everyone I know heading that way.... Thanks!

  Just spent 2 weeks in this wonderful cottage while visiting family in Portland for the holidays, and we truly enjoyed this little "home away from home". It is a beautifully designed and outfitted space, with remarkable, thoughtful details throughout. The kitchen is very well equipped, the washer/dryer was a real bonus for our long visit, and the bed is extremely comfortable. Loved the great light in the cottage from all the windows and skylights. We had prompt responses to our questions from both the owners and onsite manager. We will definitely stay here again!

  A lovely, well-designed, mini-loft space with all the basic comforts of home. We had a very relaxing time during our visit and would definitely come back. Lacey & Nathan (the front home tenants) are very welcoming and helpful.

  Delightful compact living with an art flair. The place was well located for restaurants and getting onto the freeway. The area in which the accommodation was located was nice and quiet. The accommodation was well supplied with linen and consumables. The only minor detail was the lack of cereal bowls and tackling the dining table when converting it to a bed. Other than that, it was fabulous and we recommend it highly.
