Quiet Cottage in the Trees - Close to Downtown, OHSU, Lewis & Clark!
Enjoy a peaceful stay at the Plum Cottage! Located just minutes from Downtown Portland and OHSU. This is a newly remodeled, fully-separate one bedroom cottage ADU with a large deck overlooking a creek with towering trees. The cottage can accommodate up to three, with a pull-out single bed in the living room.
Living room: Cozy open-concept living room and dining space with a comfy pull-out couch, large sliding glass doors, and a smart TV.
Dining area: Small dining table that seats 2 comfortably. We would be happy to provide an extra chair if you book for 3 people.
Bathroom: heated tile floors, detachable shower-head, washer and dryer
I have found over time that every VRBO is different and every guest’s expectations are different when they book a short term rental. It is my goal to make sure that I am as transparent as possible so that you can make an educated decision on your choice of where you would like to stay.
PET POLICY: All pets must be approved in advance. You must confirm that the animal has no history of property destruction, indoor urination/defecation, aggression, or excessive noise. I expect you to have the animal with you or crated when you're not home. In order to maintain an allergen-low environment for other guests, I have the cleaners do deep cleans after every animal stays there and hire a carpet / upholstery cleaner if necessary. Any undisclosed pet will result in a large penalty. FEES: Dogs and cats: $200. This fee does not cover any damages caused by the pet that result in excessive cleaning or repairs.
ESAs / Service animals: If you have an ESA animal please send me a copy of the paperwork including the letter from your healthcare provider. If you have a service animal trained to help you with a disability, I will be asking you the following legally allowable questions: 1) Is the service animal required because of a disability? 2) What work or task has the animal been trained to perform? (Your disability does *not* need to be disclosed)
NOISE: No excessive noise. No parties. No yelling.
SMOKING: No smoking anywhere on the property
CLEANING: Sometimes a cleaner does a poor job and it catches me (and you!) off guard. Please let me know if the cleaner missed something(s) important and allow me to fix the issue. I assure you that I strongly value cleanliness and any lack of cleanliness is not on purpose.
PORCH: Sometimes wood can get slippery in very wet weather. If the porch is slippery, we would be happy to apply some anti-mildew for the wood. If you are concerned about slipping because of a health condition or injury, use at your own risk.
SUMMER: There is NO AC unit available by us for this cottage. However, it stays quite cool nestled among the trees. The only issue would be on the very hottest days of the summer. In Portland, that's only about a week out of the year.
SUPPLIES: We provide you enough supplies to get you through a month. If you end up staying more than a month, it is on you to purchase your own supplies (e.g. TP, shampoo, etc)
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.
