Great option for a group stay

We stayed at this property as a retreat-type trip. It had a great space for hanging out as a group indoors and outdoors as well as enough bedrooms to find a quiet space. The neighborhood was great, walkable restaurants and coffee spots.

Response from VrboOwner on 18 Apr, 2024
So happy the houses worked well for your retreat! When we were designing the layout of the houses we aimed to make large open spaces for groups to be in as well as smaller intimate spaces for a few people to connect in. It was fun to think about how all of that would be handy for groups. Please come back and stay with us again!

Fantastic review! We love catering to large groups as we know how hard it is to find places to gather. When we began the company we knew the locations had to be in the heart of Portland's unique neighborhoods. We know how key walking to visit shops, dine and bars is, so both of our locations are ideal and simple strolls to all the fun!

Bachelor/ette Party

14 of us all had tons of room and bed space, no waiting for showers, everything we needed to cook and serve in the kitchen. Lots of storage in the bedrooms and even an option to drop luggage in storage before check in. We had places to park several cars. The walkable food, coffee, groceries options really sealed the deal for us and we had a ton of fun.

Wonderful Benjamin I know how hard it is to find a place where large groups can hang out and spread out comfortably. This was one of the reasons we started our business and how we designed the houses to be used, so I am thrilled you all enjoyed the layout and amenities. And I also love being able to walk to everything on Mississippi and Williams Ave so many excellent places and so easily accessible. Glad we got to be part of your celebrations!!

Great Location, Comfort, and Communication

My husband and I rented this pair of houses for a 35th anniversary celebration. The hosts were communicative, and the property itself was comfortable, spacious, and well designed. Most Portland sites that we wanted to visit were just a short drive away, and those who chose to explore on foot around the property found plenty to interest them, including a quirky taxidermy shop. We would definitely choose this rental again for a similar function.

We are so happy Kirstin that you all loved the houses and location to other Oregon attractions, so handy to be able to jump on I-5 which is a few blocks away. We are also situated close to public transportation if people don't want to rent cars, that is an option. And as noted, walking down Mississippi Ave or Williams are both wonderful neighborhoods and easily walkable. We hope to have you back for your 40th anniversary!

About the host

Hosted by Michelle Ruber

Host profile image
We are a husband and wife team who love to travel, mostly on bicycles, and love designing houses. We put both of those passions together with the two businesses we own. Encircle Design and Build is our home remodeling side, where we mainly focus on kitchens, bathrooms, and whole house remodels. We started Shift Vacation Rentals with our duplex on Alberta Street. When we were getting married we looked for a house that could accommodate all of our family members and couldn't find anything. This experience sprouted our idea to create well-designed, modern, artistic lodging for people coming to Portland in our favorite neighborhoods. We adore Portland and think its, if not the, then one of the best cities in the USA. We are excited to share our home and neighborhood with you as it offers so much. In the house there is a list of recommendations of what to do and see in PDX!

Why they chose this property

The location is amazing. Walking distance to some of Portland's coolest bars, restaurants, and shops. Mississippi District is the area that exemplifies what makes Portland unique, the locally owned businesses will inspire and wow you.
The house is adorable, extremely clean, well looked after and beautifully appointed. The house is only used as a vacation rental, so you don't feel like you are staying in someone's personal space. We strive to provide a home that is perfect and hope you have an amazing stay.

What makes this property unique

9 bedrooms with an eco-modern style, perfect for large groups, within walking distance of the cool and artistic Mississippi District.
