The central heat was inadequate to warm the bedrooms (the windows were drafty) but iTrip responded promptly and delivered two space heaters the next day.The house is spacious and it was great to have a separate basement bedroom/game room areas for the kids. The kitchen was small but well equipped and we found almost everything we needed (bring your own zip lock bags/ foil / food storage and enough dishwasher pods if you're cooking a lot). Lots of plates and glasses were available for family dinners. The neighborhood was very peaceful and the beds were comfortable and we had the best sleep we've had in ages. The backyard is a beautiful view of forested hills, and there was a little creek running at the bottom of the little hill just below the decks (in December). Overall it was a great gathering place for extended family in the area, and I would definitely stay there again and recommend it to others.
The house had multiple industrial type airfresheners. My Mom had an allergic reaction and we had to go get additional medication so she could stay there. . I think the airfresheners were placed to cover the smell of mold. There was a water stain on the ceiling that contributed to the smell of mold. All game items in garage were broken. Railings on deck are a hazard. I couldn't let my grand children play outside. I am not posting this public yet. I honesty think a refund is in order. This was the worst VRBO i have ever stayed at. This house was a place we stayed to celebrate my sons wedding. When we tried to have dinner at the table, it rocked back and forth snd was not stable. This house is dangerous. I will post this public with pictures. I am so embarrassed that i rented this venue. The air fresheners are in the deck outside. Terrible. Embarrassing in front of family from across the US. I am sad i could not provide them with a comfortable clean house.
We didn't spend much time at the property because we were very busy with our daughters wedding but we really enjoyed the spaciousness, easy access, morning coffee and the very comfortable beds!
The neighborhood is quiet and safe. Nice for walking. The house is exactly as advertised. The beds are comfortable. All the games available were perfect entertainment for our group. Close to Hwy 205 made it easy for everyone to get around Portland. The kitchen is well stocked with all items needed to cook meals. If you have need of a place for a large group- highly recommend!! Well had 13 people and were comfortable.
We were a party of four and we were all pleased with our stay. The house has plenty of room for a large gathering. Conveniently located, quiet neighborhood and the host was very accommodating. Excellent choice.
This is a great property for a group or family stay. Two huge rec rooms downstairs (with additional sleeping options.) Garage is a delightful game room, too. Fully equipped kitchen (with complementary coffee, thank you!) Large decks with plenty of seating. Living area comfortably held 8 adults to visit and chat. Three of the bedrooms are on the main level, no stairs, which was a bonus for some of our elderly knees. Quiet and safe neighborhood, within minutes of stores and restaurants. And only 20 minutes to Portland proper. Highly recommend for groups/multi-family vacations.
We were all happy for the most part with our stay, the only issues were the cleanliness of the property, there were allot of beer can that had been thrown off the side of the balcony and had not been cleaned up by a previous guest, there was allot of hair in the downstairs bathroom trash can that had not gotten taken out. Other then those issues it was a great time
We really enjoyed our stay. We stayed with our boys, their wives and my parents. It was perfect having 3 rooms on the ground level for the older folks and 3 rooms on the lower level with the pool table and separate family room. 4 rooms with king beds was great and really sold us on this home. There were a few ants in the kitchen but they had spray in the cabinet and it wasnât a big deal. We made sure that we wiped down all the countertops when we were done for the night and took the trash out. That being said we really did love the place, it was private and we would rent it again.
We had family come from 5 different states for a wedding & a mini family Christmas. The space was more than adequate and the amenities were perfect. There were 9 adults and 6 kids from the ages of 5 months to 13 years old and everyone found something fun. Whether it was the chill space in the garage, the pool table or game room in the basement. The 6 bedrooms fit all of quite nicely. The communication was great with check in and check out.
We were a group of 12 people staying at this fabulous home while visiting our grandson to watch him play his last football game at Lewis & Clark College. We were able to relax and enjoy a great weekend. The hosts made us feel very welcome. We will definitely stay here on a future trip.
Great place to stay for a group of people. The neighborhood was clean and quiet and there is a little park walking distance from the house! Basement was huge and a awesome gathering place for everyone.
We loved the area and especially the home. It was so welcoming. My kids and parents (70+) thought they were in a dream. The game room was perfect for family night, movie night and I even taught the little ones how to play billiards. The kitchen was has everything for cooking whatevere wanted to make. Breakfast eggs, sausage, pancakes to dinner spaghetti n meatballs we even baked some brownies.
Overall great experience and weâre looking forward to using the home on our next visit to Portland.
The house worked well and was very nice for a group of 10. With that said, it showed a ton of issues that clearly were problems with upkeep. A noncomplete list: the grill bottom was burned out and immediately enflamed and dropped flames onto the deck, the cold water to the sink was turned off, there was a leak under the fridge leading to a leaking ceiling in the basement, the foosball table was breaking and unusable, a dead tree fell while we were there and almost hit the deck, one of the beds that was supposed to be a queen was actually just another full bed, several chairs were breaking, the games were missing pieces. Overall the house was fine and we had fun, but it wasn't worth the price and/or should have had repairs done before having more people stay.
We stayed at this property while in the Portland area for a college graduation. There was 13 of us staying there. We all loved it! The house was nicely laid out with 3 bedrooms upstairs and another 3 downstairs. All were very nice. The kitchen was an adequate size for our group and was supplied with everything we needed to cook food. The dining room had a large table that sat several people. The back deck was great with 2-3 levels to it. The game tables downstairs and the bar/game room in the garage were a wonderful bonus! The neighborhood was quiet and the people we encountered were friendly. The house was located close to the the highway and getting around was convenient. Gas stations and stores to buy groceries were easy to get to and just a few minutes away. We would definitely recommend this property to anyone traveling in the Portland area.
Great place with lots of space to spread out for large groups of all ages. We flew in for my fatherâs celebration of life events, and this was a nice home base.
