Lovely Location & Hosts
A beautiful guest house with a light and airy small kitchen, a pretty view out the back, and beautiful woodwork inside. The hosts are delightful and provided a stocked kitchen with starter food items that would work for breakfast, lunch and dinner. We loved our time here!

What a wonderful place.
This gem was everything we could hope for and more. Dennis met us when we got in at midnight and showed us around. They had some quality staples stocked (milk, eggs bread butter) and the kitchen is well equipped. Wifi was easy to access, sauna was dreamy and there are two secret toy filled rooms for yhe kids to play in. Baby gates on every staircase, cute little outdoor area in the back with more toys. Planty if seating for dining, comfortable furniture and all beautifully presented with the sweetest owners right next door, but not invasive. Highly recomend this for your next portland vacation!

Multnomah guest house
Trudy and Dennis were most gracious hosts. They greeted us upon our arrival and bid us farewell upon our departure. They even stocked the refrigerator and pantry with essentials so we could enjoy breakfast and refreshments throughout our stay. Multnomah village is an eclectic enclave with great restaurants, funky stores and a great sense of community. Would definitely stay here again.

Weekend Getaway
Hosts Dennis and Trudy were VERY friendly. Easy check in/out. The home was stocked with everything needed. Not the newest property, but pretty clean and would be a good option for families with preschool and school aged children (lots of small bed space, movies, and toys). Some cobwebs, dust, etc. We were pleased with our stay for the price.

Great area, cute place, very nice VRBO owner
The location was perfect and the home is quaint, however, it felt a bit cluttered for my tastes. In that sense it didn’t feel like the pictures represented the home accurately because it was a bit overstuffed. We couldn’t watch tv because the signal was poor/fair. Worked on my tablet but not the tv. We had to set up our Roku account on the tv which is the first time we’ve had to do that. The owner told me he wouldn’t be able to greet me but told me the door would be open, but it was not. After a long drive that was a bit bothersome since I had 30 minutes to drop the rental off. The owner was VERY nice and responsive but that doesn’t make up for the experience of what we got for the money. It was not worth $185 a night in my opinion. It was stocked with some food, which is thoughtful, but for someone with a child with a peanut allergy was a bit concerning because they left cookies out that might have had peanuts or processed in a peanut facility so had to waste those and throw them away. There was also a peanut butter jar in the cabinet which then prompted me to clean all the surfaces. Additionally, the coffee pot was dirty when I arrived which made me wonder if the sheets and blankets were freshly laundered so I washed all of those too. They had plenty of food but left only 2 coffee filters. I only raised the tv to the VRBO owners attention and there was no resolution. He reset the router but it did nothing. I do think the owner as a human is 5 stars.

Lovely Spot from which to Explore Portland
Our week in this sweet cottage was balm for the soul. The house was comfortable and well stocked with everything we needed, and the garden was a peaceful oasis for our meals with friends. The hosts were beyond gracious and accommodating. The walking paths in the area are excellent, and it’s an easy walk to groceries, restaurants, and shops. We hope to be back!

Fantastic hosts - we had a wonderful time. All 5 of us were able to have beds to ourselves (one futon converted into a bed, I believe). The house was lovely and located in a beautiful neighborhood. Several of us also had a chance to enjoy the sauna during our last evening there. It was also easy to call Ubers whenever we needed to get to downtown Portland. Would definitely recommend this place!

Dennis and Trudy were terrific hosts! We were able to check-in early and they had provided some basic food items (fruit, bread, eggs) so that we wouldn't have to rush to a grocery store for provisions. The property had multiple gathering areas and we hosted a small dinner party on the deck Saturday night with family before the Timbers game. The home is within walking distance of Multnomah Village - a delightful community of shops and restaurants - and also conveniently located to freeway access to venture into Portland.

Lovely cozy home
This home gave us “weekend getaway at grandmas” meaning almost everything we needed they provided! That’s how great of a host Dennis and Trudi are with this home. Our stay consisted of three adults, we each had plenty of room. Just keep in mind there are stairs to get to two bedrooms and only one bathroom which is located downstairs. Home is also children friendly as they have endless movies available and play rooms. My husband enjoyed the sauna definitely an added bonus to our amazing vacation. Nonetheless, I would definitely return to this home and recommend to all who want to visit Portland.

A little home away from home!
This Multnomah Village house was very cozy and in a quiet, very friendly neighborhood. I loved the warm pine woodwork, the wrought iron decor, the quilts, cozy warm blankets and pillows. The beds and futons were very comfortable. I felt that everything was well thought out with obvious great taste and love. The upstairs bedrooms were delightful with hidden rooms in which children could play to their heart’s content. The views are pure Oregon; an abundance of green, fir trees, rhododendron. The place was equipped with most anything you might need, like at home: Pepto Bismol, shampoo, toothpaste, all kinds of things, so you probably won’t need to run out at the last minute. The hosts, Dennis and Trudy were so wonderful. They were welcoming, informative, caring and their presence next door was comforting to us. I wish they were my real next door neighbors. Shopping is close by and it includes the quaint, artsy area of Multnomah Village full of specialty shops and eateries. The area is also a beautiful, safe environment for walking. We definitely will request to stay in this gem in the future.

The home was beautiful, with lots of homey touches like thick quilts and hot chocolate mix. We came in in the wee hours of the morning due to very bad weather during travel.

The house suited out needs perfectly. Trudy and Dennis were wonderful hosts, available if we needed anything (which was unlikely as the house was so well stocked), but not intrusive. We were there for an early Christmas and we’re delighted when we arrived to find it decorated for the holiday. The location was so nice, in a quiet neighborhood close to Multnonah Village.

A beautiful set up.
The way the home was set up was so wonderful. There are places for alone and community time. While the place isn’t 100% ADA, it wouldn’t be hard to move around with a cane or walker. There are handles and grab bars in the bathroom. I really love that. The whole space is so welcoming and cozy. I see my self coming back a lot. We are close to a lot of things and still have a lovely tranquil area to return to. 100% beats the pants off any high priced hotels I’ve ever stayed at. Love the owners, honestly I’d love to come back just to have tea and talk. So many wonderful stories.

Staying here was overall really good. There was a couple misunderstandings in communication regarding the price and the check in process was not clear before or when we arrived. The hosts were very gracious and sweet and made sure we had everything we needed, including ample breakfast items in the fridge and cupboards. The space was very clean but there are a lot of personal feeling items in the cottage, making it feel less like a rental and more like someone’s home. Excellent quiet location in Portland.

Even though they are not allowed to call one of their rooms an actual room, it is beautiful and has its own bathroom. So the house is more spacious than the description!

We had a wonderful time at Dennis and Trudi's home and would love the chance to visit again one day. The location is excellent for day trips to the Columbia Gorge, the Oregon coast, and other breathtaking destinations. The cottage was well-stocked with items that you may have forgotten to pack (e.g. toiletries, spices, coffee) and did not lack for other necessities needed to make your vacation a pleasurable experience. We loved the beautiful flowers in Trudi's garden and the abundance of great restaurants close by. It was especially nice to find neighbor hiking trails within walking distance and a state natural area a few minutes from their residence. It isn't often that one gets to meet a couple who had the courage to sail around the world after retirement. We enjoyed every day of our visit and our lives are richer for having spent time with Dennis and Trudi.
