About this property
Charming, Private, Detached Studio!
I have lived in Sellwood for over 20 years and, in our opinion, it's by far the best place to be in Portland... welcome! If you are coming for work, to visit with family, or simply want to explore and relax, you are sure to find comfort during your stay!
The Space The private studio is very quiet, offering a cozy space you will quickly settle into. It has been built to match the style of the bungalow home built in 1915. While it doesn't have a kitchen, everything is new... refrigerator, toaster, coffee pour over, and hot water pitcher. All the furnishings, linens, and Smart TV... all are new. Very clean and comfortable, naturally cool in the summer (fantastic insulation), warm in the winter... this space is settled in the magical town of Sellwood. Many have shared that this is the best VRBO they have stayed in. We are grateful for the overwhelmingly positive response.
Guest access We have a seasonal garden, a terraced, outside space in which you can listen to the soft sounds of a water feature. Other things to note Netflix is available!

We realize Oregon is a cannabis friendly state, however our property is not. It has been with a great deal of thought that we have come to this decision. Please refrain from smoking or vaping of any kind, anywhere on the premises. Thank you!

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication
The room was very clean and the setting was private. The host suggested places to see and dine. I especially liked the tastefully decorated room and nice sheets.
Excellent stay! Very clean, great instructions and very communicative host. I really appreciated the clean sheets with lack of strong detergent smell. Would absolutely stay again!
The place was perfect for my needs. Great location, very clean and private, had all the basic supplies, bed was comfy and the host was very helpful. I will definitely stay there again, especially when the weather is nicer. It’s super close to a great park! Only recommendation would be a light in the driveway as the area can be very dark. The sensor light past the driveway is very bright, which is great.
Hosts attentive and accommodating. Location within walking distance of a fantastic bakery, a ramen restaurant, a bottle shop, coffee shop, a park with walking trails and a bike path along the Willamette River. The cottage is comfortable, quiet, private. Hope to return to this special place.
I had a great experience in this cozy apartment. Scot went the extra mile for me when I had a family emergency; making it possible for me to extend my stay unexpectedly. I am thoroughly familiar with Portland, OR and always prefer to stay in walkable locations like Sellwood. It is my favorite part of town for its easy access to food, boutiques, and nature. This apartment is just a few minutes on foot to all of these things. I highly recommend staying here if you have the opportunity.
The property was in a great neighborhood. Near shops and restaurants. The host was very available to answering questions and telling us abt the location. We were visiting family so we did not stay at our room most of the time. There was not a sink in the area Of the microwave and refrigerator but the bathroom sink worked fine for us since we weren't fixing meals there. A pleasant experience.
Everything here was quality….and so comfy! The space was all we needed for our short stay. No cooking ..just a bowl of oatmeal for breakfast.loved sitting at the little table in the sun!
Myself and my partner stayed at Scot’s place in Portland for a few nights - and it was amazing. He was super communicative and helpful, and the space had everything we needed for our stay. Not to mention, the location was GREAT. Food, coffee, retail - all within walking distance, so we barely had to drive at all during our stay. Highly highly recommend staying here :)
This is our second time staying at Scot’s wonderful property. We love the location. It is a comfy and cozy place to stay with many great areas to visit nearby. Scot is super communicative and helpful. Would definitely recommend this place.! Just don’t go in January because that’s when we wanna be there again lol
We loved this little cottage! Scot had great communication with us the entire time. Place was immaculate and spotless. Loved the location as well. Many things are walking distance.
