I totally enjoyed my stay at this property. The rental was very clean and the kitchen had every appliance one could possibly need. I stayed 10 days so the washer and dryer were a plus.The property is located in a very walkable neighborhood with plenty of stores and restaurants just blocks away. I would definitely stay here again when visiting my daughter in Portland.

Perfect space for couples! Clean, quiet and well-organized. Easy walking distance to great shops and restaurants as well as public transit connections, so car not necessary, but if you do bring one parking is very convenient. Very comfortable bed and fantastic soaking tub! Do be aware if you have mobility issues that it’s a taller step up and over than a standard bathtub. Hosts have put a grab rail in place to help.

Nice VRBO cottage in backyard of hosts. The cottage is well maintained and stocked with all of the essentials. The hosts are wonderful: friendly, helpful and responsive. My wife and I stay at many SE Portland VRBOs while visiting our grandson and we highly recommended this one.

This was our second time staying here and we enjoyed our stay in the cottage. It was very clean and comfortable. Our daughter and her family live close by so the location is great for us. Chrysalis was great in responding to our questions. Our only issue was that the television sound and picture are not very good.

Well appointed quiet stay

We stayed at this cottage for 13 days. We enjoyed the neighborhood, the fact that it is quiet and the fact that the cottage is well appointed and roomy. The hosts are friendly and went over the top to help us out in a pinch when our car was towed.

Nice kitchen!

Had lots of amenities. Washer and dryer full kitchen. Clean bathroom. It is on ground level unlike art of units in Portland. Many are basement apartments. Nice space. The living room isn’t great. Futon for a couch, one chair and a very small Tv. We weren’t in the unit that much but do like to music or watch tv at the end of the day.

A Refuge and a Respite

A beautiful home away from home. The bed was very comfortable, the bathroom spacious, the kitchen modern and well-equipped. It had everything we needed including privacy, proximity to New Seasons Natural Grocery Store, Safeway, restaurants, hardware store, and our grandkids! A heat pump kept the space warm for us and will also cool it down in the summer. Chrysalis and Mark were responsive to our inquiries and ready to help when needed. Her kids occasionally played in the yard between the house and the cottage which I found delightful.

Clean and quiet

Very nice space, would happily stay there again. Clean, well maintained, comfortable, good kitchen, separate structure away from main house. Only downside is that you are in the back yard, with no view, and to maintain privacy you need to keep the drapes drawn. Owners do a good job of keeping the backyard quiet which is greatly appreciated.

Peaceful lodging

This VRBO was a handy place to stay while completing testing at OHSU. We appreciated the well stocked kitchen and the clean environment. When we had some challenges with operating the TV and overhead fan, we were quickly assisted and after new batteries were added, all worker well! A peaceful, private, tidy place to stay!

The Woodstock neighborhood

We travelled for a wedding in Aurora and then stayed in the neighborhood of Woodstock for a respite and visit with family. We LOVED the area, the food, and the simple convenience of this VRBO rental. It was just the perfect size for the two of us and the ammenities were as described in the listing. The host was responsive to questions and provided us with excellent suggestions for what to do in and around the neighborhood and Portland area. We would stay here again!
