About this apartment rental

Live like a local in our beautiful one-bedroom craftsman home that blends modern design with century old architecture. This private space is located in trendy Kenton on a quiet street. The lushly landscaped front yard is a great place to sit and enjoy a cup of coffee, local beer, or a glass of wine. Cook your purchases from one of Portland’s many farmer’s markets in the full kitchen. Then get a great night’s sleep the comfy queen bed. Come see what makes Portland uniquely Portland!

Professionally cleaned, keypad entry, NO SHARED SPACES!
As you enter the front door of our craftsman home you'll find a 600 square foot private space with abundant window lighting and an eclectic set of furnishings. Enjoy the living/dining room combo, kitchen, bedroom and bathroom as well as the outdoor spaces including the front porch bistro table and the side yard with two Adirondack chairs.
At the back of the kitchen there is an exterior door with a deadbolt separating the front portion of the home with the back of the home where we live. There is only one partial shared wall between the two spaces allowing for maximum privacy.
The neighborhood is dog friendly and we have a small dog in our living space but in order to keep the rental space clean and enjoyable for all guests, we don't allow dogs.
The location is on a quiet street and convenient to many of Portland's unique neighborhoods (Kenton, Alberta Arts, Mississippi, St. John's) and five miles from downtown. There is easy access to many conveniences like Columbia Park (3 blocks), bus stop (two blocks), U. of P. (one mile), and Green Zebra Grocery (6 blocks).

We had a wonderful stay and would absolutely come back again! The house was clean, cozy, and thoughtfully stocked with everything we needed for a comfortable week away from home.The beds and pillows were especially comfortable, the water pressure was amazing after long days exploring, and we loved relaxing together on the comfy couch at night. The board games were such a fun touch, and everything from the entertainment setup to the kitchen appliances was easy to use. We also really loved the beautiful kitchen and dining area — it made slow mornings and family meals feel extra special.The location was fantastic. The neighborhood was beautiful, peaceful, and incredibly walkable. We loved being able to stroll to parks, coffee shops, restaurants, and neighborhood spots so easily. Columbia Park quickly became one of our favorite places during the trip.Some favorite spots we’d recommend nearby: A Plus Coffee, Tin Shed, Posies Bakery, Mike’s Drive-In, and of course a day trip to Cannon Beach.Thank you again for such a lovely stay and for being such responsive, thoughtful hosts. This home helped make our trip feel really special!

We had a great time staying at the dragon fly house! Andrea and Brad were very communicative and quickly refunded an accidental extra night booking. We happened to stay during some especially sunny spring weather and slept very comfortably. We will definitely book again if there is availability.
