Very nice place. In some ways, actually better than described. Master bedroom was excellent and there was plenty of room for my 2 daughters and a friend.
This townhouse was perfect for our week of house hunting in Portland. I honestly don’t think we could have found anything better as far as comfort level, layout, spaciousness, and location. It’s as nice as the pictures, AND has a great patio with a yard. We would absolutely recommend it. 100%
We had a great stay! Four of us stayed for 3 nights and it was very convenient to the wedding we were attending. It was clean and provided us with everything we needed.

Thank you! We're glad you enjoyed your time in Portland.
The house was very clean, which we really appreciated because we were traveling with little ones. The host was very responsive and accommodating as well.
This was a great stay for us for a Reed College graduation weekend. Fabulous location and very safe neighborhood. Fully stocked kitchen, bathroom towels, and linens. Highly recommend it.
Ideally located near walking paths, food trucks & easy access to Portland areas. Love the 3 bathrooms and outdoor space. Appreciated the air conditioning. Stairs could be a problem for some. We appreciated that kitchen had all equipment needed for quick meals. Very comfortable property ( though living room could use a floor lamp for more light for reading)

Thank you! We're so glad you enjoyed your stay and appreciate the feedback on the lamp.
We had a great stay at the Cora Street Retreat. Carla was incredible to work with. She went over and beyond to accommodate our needs. We were there for a month and loved the location. Cute neighborhood with some great places to eat, drink or get coffee within walking distance. The house had everything we needed. The beds were comfortable. We appreciated all the extra bedding and towels. The kitchen was well equipped. We made most of our meals at home. It was great having a desk space to do my work. The outside patio was a great space to hang out. Easy drive to both OHSU waterfront and the OHSU hospital.

We're pleased you found our location convenient for your Portland trip and that the house suited you.
Cora Street was a very easy place to stay. Everything we could have needed was there and the communication was a breeze. We will happily stay there again.
Clean and well-furnished, this house was a delight to stay at! We had everything we needed: kitchen supplies, towels, etc. The spaces were inviting and comfortable. My two friends and I enjoyed our stay very much.

We are so pleased you enjoyed your time in our townhome
Fireplace was great to give added warmth. We struggled a bit with getting the toilets to flush completely and the washer was a bit tricky. Location was perfect for access to activited we did like the zoo and OMSI.

We really enjoy the fireplace on chilly nights as well. We're glad you enjoyed some of our favorite places in Portland.
(Low flow toilets are a little tricky, and this is the first time we've heard of an issue with the washer - thanks, we'll check it out.)
Ten minutes from downtown and close to lots of cute neighborhoods with great restaurants!

We live in Eugene and enjoy having a home near our son in Portland. Our daughter also has an apartment downstairs so we can visit with family. We also have vacation homes in Bandon on the southern Oregon coast.
Why they chose this property
We love the quiet and pleasant neighborhood that is still close-in to downtown, the convention center, and not too far from the airport.
What makes this property unique
It has a pleasant feel with the private garden, plenty of parking, bedrooms and baths. We also love the gas fireplace in the winter, and the AC in the summer.
