The Space:
This modern, bright, garden-level retreat features a spacious open-concept living, dining, and kitchen area designed for relaxing, working, entertaining, and exploring Portland with ease.
When you arrive, you’re welcomed by a large private patio with built-in benches, a dining table, and comfortable lounge seating — perfect for morning coffee or evening wine. Inside, the open layout creates an inviting gathering space for family and friends.
The three bedrooms comfortably sleep six guests. For additional flexibility, the living room sofa or a floor blow up mattress can accommodate extra sleepers. Rest easy on brand-new Serta Perfect Sleeper mattresses and high end Cozy brand sheets.
The Location:
You’ll be staying in one of Portland’s most vibrant neighborhoods: inner Northeast, just steps from Alberta Street.
Alberta is lined with galleries, boutiques, and some of Portland’s most beloved restaurants and cafés. Stroll the street and enjoy everything from Indian to Italian to Southern cuisine, plus locally roasted coffee, craft beer, and small-batch ice cream. You’re within walking distance of live music venues, a summer farmer’s market, an organic co-op, and countless neighborhood gems.
Just minutes from the airport and a short drive to downtown, this location makes the perfect home base for your Portland stay.
A Shift Vacation Rentals Perk:
When you stay with Shift Vacation Rentals, you receive exclusive discounts from our wonderful neighborhood partners, including Frock Boutique, Tin Shed, Mimosa Studios, Crafty Wonderland, and more. Eat, drink, and shop your way through the neighborhood — all just a stroll away and all at a discount.
Traveling with a Group?
This home is part of a duplex. The upstairs apartment, High Gear, can also be rented to accommodate larger groups — perfect for wedding parties, reunions, workshops, family gatherings, or business retreats.
Need even more space? We also have two additional rentals in the chic Mississippi District, just a five-minute drive away.

About the host
Hosted by Michelle Ruber
Myself and my Dutch husband, Klaas, are obsessed with travel, design, nature, hiking, and biking....We have combined all of these things into our vacation rental business. During our travels we constantly note what makes things feel unique and special and then incorporate them into our location. We want our guests to feel super comfortable. We can do this by making sure the kitchen is fully stocked, linens and towels are high quality, internet is high speed, the house is super clean. We also want people to feel that they are in Portland, not just anywhere. We do that by using locally made materials in the construction (tiles, flooring, art work), providing lots of info and books about the area, creating an insiders guide of our favorite places, and we have collaborated with locally owned shops who give discounts to our guests.
Why they chose this property
I think our rental has many unique areas- from a large side yard filled with interesting kids structures to corn hole which is a game that friends can play and enjoy for hours. Inside the house has bike themed interiors from hanging tricycle lights to handle bar coat racks. We wanted the house to be comfortable for guests, so details such as reading lights above the beds were put in every room. We hope you love your stay!
What makes this property unique
Make your experience in Portland as unique as the city itself by staying in our beautiful, eco-friendly, remodeled 3-bedroom space.
