Portland vacation rentals

This was the perfect location for our trip. A home away from home that allowed us to easily plan day trips. Its central location and parking spot in the driveway made getting around and back home easy. Bed was on the firmer side, which I enjoyed but my wife liked a bit less, due to being a side sleeper. Everything was very clean aside from one bar of soap with a hair on it left behind. I only mention it because I had to hear about it from the wife. :) I think the rain shower made it up to her though. Otherwise, very clean, and I’m sure cleaner than a downtown hotel. Overall, just a very homey, quiet place. The bottle of wine and chocolate were a nice touch. Would wholeheartedly recommend this rental.

Robert was very friendly when we met him. The room was exactly as it appeared in the photos. The room was perfect! We were able to have a couple of our kids and grand kids over to hang out for a while and there was plenty of room. The fridge was unexpectedly nicely stocked with various goodies and necessities. We will stay there again!

Great place that is walking distance to many parks, bars and restaurants. The noon check out made our stay so nice as our flight didn’t leave till 2pm.

Second time staying here and loved it. Great place, comfortable bed and couches. Perfect little kitchen for quick meals. Extremely toddler friendly!!

This is our second time at Oculus house and our 2nd stay was even better. Everything was spotless, plenty of room to spread out even without using the upstairs loft. TVs in each room, comfy chairs, and a comfortable bed. But it is Emiky and Jeff’s hospitality that makes this the spectacular stay that it is. They were both proactive with our questions, helpful with needs that came up during our stay, and made us feel welcome as if we were coming back home. The house book is full of good and clear instructions, which are easy to follow for the jetted tub, the heat and air conditioning and other facets of the home. There were even a few tidbits and snacks for us to tide us over till we got to the store. While you have peace and quiet, you’re also close to restaurants, shops, downtown and the airport. We investigated many nearby neighborhoods easily and quickly as well as the Gorge and a wildlife refuge. Be sure to try any of the local restaurants! And Great North for coffee!

We really enjoyed our stay! The home was super clean and well equipped! Lovely garden views and peaceful neighbourhood with endless amounts of amazing restaurants and coffee shops a short walk away. Highly recommend!

Clean and modern backyard dwelling. Great place to stop over for the night or stay a couple days in Alberta district. Close to coffee, shops, and restaurants. Private and relaxing vibes. Would recommend and may stay again.

Great place to stay for the weekend! Jennifer was super responsive and proactively checked in during our stay. Will definitely stay here again!

Great place, excellent location, had a wonderful time!

We had a nice stay and the beds were so comfortable. Everything was great. Recommended.

Spent a couple days here and it was a perfect location. Quiet at night, although be aware there is a train nearby. I was up early so it did not interfere with my stay. The place is close to everything you need. Grocery stores, restaurants, and shops. The place was very comfortable and would stay here again.

Great place, very clean, lots of amenities. A little hard to find and chack in, but the photo directions from the host really help. There is a grocery store about a 1 min walk from the apartment which was really handy. Close to the water and centrally located. Overall, very nice.

Great value and it was above my expectations when I walked into the house. I had a great use of the kitchen and the AC was definitely a huge bonus during the summer heat. Rich was very good in communications and I felt like I was well taken care of

I live nearby and needed a place to stay during a minor remodel - picked this one because it was so close to groceries and restaurants. Very convenient, clean, comfortable, well-stocked kitchen. No problem finding parking on the street. No AC, but stayed cool and pleasant even when the weather got hot. My only complaint was flies (outside) from the chickens next door - Bee got fly traps right away when I mentioned it, but there’s only so much she can do.

We enjoyed the large spaces, especially the living/dining/kitchen area. The dining table was ideal for board games, and it was nice that we could all sit comfortably in the living room. The bed linens were very soft, even though the beds themselves weren't as comfortable (for us -- very subjective). The master bath had some minor detritus in the tub from the skylight too, but everything else was spotless. All in all, we had a lovely time, and Mary Jean was thoughtful, respectful, and helpful.

Definitely best for a solo traveler or couple. Would recommend traveling light just so you’re not tripping over your luggage. The neighborhood felt super safe and was quiet. Definitely would come back in the future :)

The location is unbeatable for restaurants, coffee shops and groceries. The place had everything we needed and we even made a couple meals there. Had food delivered one night and we made easy contact with the Door Dash driver for delivery. The hosts were proactive with communication — anticipating our arrival and departure needs and providing all the necessary details. It was an exceptional stay!

Right in the middle of everything - easy to walk to restaurants, groceries, other attractions. Nice space with separate bedroom and living room. Full kitchen. Only downfall, being right in the middle of everything means some noise. Hayden has provided a white noise machine but if you need quiet to sleep, this is probably not the place for you. Otherwise fabulous!

We loved our four night stay here while exploring Portland and the Columbia River Gorge area. Since we were driving the parking in a safe garage was priceless to us. The apartment had everything we needed, including washer/dryer that we really needed at the tail end of a long roadtrip. The view from the apartment was beautiful and it felt really nice getting back to the apartment after a whole day of outing. We'll definitely stay here again on our next visit to Portland.

Randy’s home is a gem in a great neighborhood w lots of tasty restaurants bars and food trucks His home is an architectural marvel w so many thoughtful details. And the space is very well-furnished (gotta love an eames chair). I especially loved sitting on the rooftop in the mornings and/or sunset

Kate’s place is in a great location. It was very walkable to restaurants and shopping as well as Grant Park. The accommodations were well appointed and comfortable. Kate was very friendly and responsive. I would highly recommend this spot in North East Portland and will return when we get the opportunity.

Mary-Yoko's home is in a beautiful Portland neighborhood. She and her husband were welcoming and hospitable. We will definitely return!

Martin & Grace were kind and communicative throughout our stay. My friend and I particularly enjoyed the area as there were multiple bus stops within 3 blocks of walking, as well as restaurants, food trucks, and parks. The full kitchen available was quite nice with extremely acceptable pans and pots. The provided earl gray tea was remarkably good as well :). We found the wifi password pasted above the bed to be quite funny when we began wondering how to access it. Finally, the check in and out directions were easy and reasonable. Thank you again for the great stay!

We love the apartment and location! It's in a busy neighborhood with so many great restaurants and cafes yet it was quiet at night. We were only there for one night, but we were on foot most of the time because there is plenty to do in the area. We love places like this when traveling rather than hotels because they are comfortable and feel like you are at a home away from home. It was clean and had everything we needed. We would love to stay here again!
