Perfect location for seeing all there is to do in Portland. Apartment is so cute and very comfortable. Host was easy to reach and answered any questions we had in a timely manor. Place had beach chairs and beach towels we could use which is a nice added touch for beach or park, which there are many. We plan to stay again when we return.

So glad the location worked out perfectly for exploring all that Portland has to offer, and that the space felt comfortable during your stay. It's great to hear the beach chairs and towels came in handy. We always aim to be quick and clear with communication, so that means a lot to hear. Thanks for sharing your experience, and we look forward to hosting you again in the future.

We had a wonderful stay! The place was absolutely adorable, clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed. The location was close to everything, making it easy to get around and enjoy the area.We had the pleasure of meeting both hosts, and they were so kind and welcoming. We needed help with one small thing during our stay, and Kim was very responsive, which we really appreciated.One of our favorite parts of the property was spending time on the back deck. It was so peaceful looking out over the beautiful garden and the woods, a perfect place to relax with a cup of coffee

We loved meeting you too, and we're happy we could help quickly when something came up. The back deck really is one of our favorite spots as well, especially with a cup of coffee looking out over the garden and woods. Thank you for sharing such a thoughtful review, it truly made our day.

I'm a frequent user of VRBO. Lots of place are good, nice, clean, etc. This place was AWESOME! The place was so clean, the furniture clean and comfortable with no wear, things were clearly labeled, supplies available if you did not bring, etc. I could go on but even my kids were shocked at how happy I was. I'm not sure if I'll be back in the area any time soon as we were there for a sailing event but I would not hesitate to stay here again.

Thank you for such a wonderful review! We're thrilled to hear the cleanliness, comfort, and thoughtful little details stood out to you and your family during your stay. Hearing that your children observed your joy made us chuckle. We work hard to make sure everything is clean, well-labeled, and well-stocked so guests can settle in easily, and it's rewarding to hear that effort made a difference. Sailing in Maine is beautiful, we hope your event was a success and your travels bring you back to the area again!

The property was as described and pictures give potential renters a great representation of property

Location is so convenient to all attractions in Portland and at the end of a dead end street. The interior is new, clean, quiet and comfortable with views of the wooded area out back. Highly recommend this property when visiting Portland and surrounding area.

Very charming accommodations in a great setting and really good location.

This little bungalow is very clean and cozy. It was the perfect size for me and my daughter. The setting at the edge of a small patch of woods offers a bit of a wilderness feel, but it is very accessible to downtown Portland. I would finitely stay there again.
