About this house rental
Sunny Stanhope Cottage is a sunny, spacious 120 year old Dutch Colonial Duplex in the beautiful, peaceful, historic Portland Heights neighborhood overlooking downtown Portland.
We are located in a quiet historic neighborhood, surrounded by nature, with plenty of space to go on walks and bike riding but close to downtown and restaurants. Bunnies, squirrels, chipmunks and deer can be spotted as well as many song birds. With our two outdoor decks and large kitchen and living room it is a perfect place to relax with your family.
The duplex is only 5 minutes (just over a mile) to the shops, restaurants and cafes of the Alphabet District (NW 23rd), downtown and Pearl. Close to OHSU and PSU. The 1400 square foot lower duplex is available year round for stays up to 5 weeks and features an open floor plan, two decks with site views up to Council Crest, southern exposure for sun all day long, two bedrooms with queen beds, a fold down couch bed for one more person in the living room, a beautiful dinning room for 8 people, a fully equipped kitchen (perfect for home cooked meals) and a very large living room. Great for family gatherings for holidays, showers, weddings, graduation, etc.
Please note that the bedrooms are organized in a tandem layout with a hall to the bathroom between them. So our place is better for single couples, families and groups of friends than for two unrelated couples who may want privacy during sleep hours. Per city regulation our max occupancy is 5 overnight.
The immediate neighborhood offers excellent walking, jogging and biking along tree lined streets filled with beautiful old Portland homes. Council Crest (Portland's highest point) and Washington Park Rose Garden are 20 minutes by foot. The Vista Spring Cafe is a 5 minute walk away and close to the bus stop for line 51.
The duplex also features a 7 foot Mason Hamlin Piano which is available to serious pianists with advance notice. A guitar is available to all. Keith and Rocio are your hosts. We live in the upper duplex. We are quiet and work full time but friendly and helpful if you need us. House is equipped with a stereo and smart tv with basic cable only (bring your books or tablet for streaming) and it has central heat and air conditioning via our new heat pump. Summers in Oregon tend to not be very hot with low humidity. We also provide both fans and space heaters in addition to the heat pump.

Great Stay. Thank You Keith for checking on us and leaving brochures, menues & books on the City. Lovely cottage. Got a lot of use out of the Kitchen. Wish the weather would have cooperated so we could have used the deck.Thank You

It was a great time; value was superb. Rooms and everything very well appointed and equipped. Enjoyed the stay and plan to be back.

The stay was very frustrating for my daughter. The owner failed to tell her about a PLANNED power outage, scheduled for the first day of her stay, until the night she checked in at 8:00 p.m. This was completely unacceptable. If she were told of this when the owner was notified by Portland Gas and Electric (most likely a couple of weeks prior to her arrival), she would have canceled the reservation and found another place to stay.There is a basic expectation by renters to have essential utilities available, such as power, internet if advertised in VRBO, water, etc. Going to a coffee shop to work was not an option due to the unsecure internet there.This caused tremendous issues for her as she could not work remotely that first day as planned. This resulted in work delays and her getting docked hours, thus a loss of pay. Honestly, we are furious about it.We feel VRBO should contact the owner and demand one day of rent be refunded.
