Close-in Private Getaway in the trees of Portland

Come relax in our private one bedroom fort inspiring house in the trees. Eclectic and creative, this stay is an entrance to the Portland experience. Cozy textiles for you to rest your head while natural light welcomes your mornings. Close to Alberta Arts District, Mississippi and Kenton; our neighborhood offers foodie-dining, unique shopping, casual night-life and more. All keeping you as adventurous as your hearts content.

Welcome to Woodlawn neighborhood and to our home! Our first steps into the house transported us from city, to a getaway up in the trees. We hope it gives you that same feeling. Our guest home, which we named the Woodlawn Fort, was built in 1912, so you'll be greeted by the cozy lived-in unique qualities of a historic home. Settle in within the personally decorated eclectic-modern house surrounded by old-growth trees, while the occasional train horn, airplane and city sounds will be a reminder that you're close to civilization.

On the main level you'll find the living/dining, and kitchen area that is open concept and fully equipped, the washer/dryer, and then the full bath featuring the unique sunken tub/shower combo. The rain shower head and shaving mirror accommodates even the tallest of tall humans. Window AC units will be provided during the warmer months. Take the stairs to the lower level and you'll find your bedroom with a Smart TV, and other essentials for you to unwind.

The yard provides two separate deck areas. The first being the private entrance deck that welcomes you, perfect for sipping your morning coffee. The other deck is located on the other side of the house, equipped with a bbq to enjoy during the warmer months for outdoor relaxing.

Guests have full access to the house except my personal space in the lower level that is locked off. It has a separate entrance so if need be, I'll be able to come and go without disturbing you, but I make a point to be away during the entirety of your stay leaving you to your privacy to enjoy.

* Not suitable for the mobility challenged and small children within indoor and exterior spaces. There is a set of stairs up to the property, then there is a sloped pebble path to the Guest side-door entrance. Inside is a staircase to the lower level bedroom. The bathroom sunken tub/shower can be a potential danger. Home is not child-proofed. Artwork and fragile items are within arms reach that if grabbed, could cause harm/damage.

* There is an occasional train horn that sounds; ear plugs provided and can be found on the Welcome Wall for my light sleepers.
