Disliked: Cleanliness
Check-in time was at 12 noon. House was not clean, was asked to come back 3 hours later. Contact property manager, they said to contact the vacation rental company We chose this place because check-in was supposed to be at 12pm as listed but it was not ready at12 o'clock. That was the reason why we chose that place. Because we had a wedding to be at 4 and we wanted Get dressed at rental property. Was explain this to the property manager? Not only the day of but the day before, reminding her arrival time and to asking for the code for the door noted in one review before this. Was one of their problems? Not having code information for the door so I followed that recommendation when following up with property manager.

We Loved this Place!

We've stayed in probably 35 vacation rentals over the years, and this lovely place is one of our favorites! It's spacious and well laid out, with colorful, warm decor. The bed is so comfortable, with great linens. And that garden! The photos online can't fully capture its beauty. Diane and Charley are wonderful, friendly hosts. We were greeted with fresh flowers on the dining table, and warm homemade granola hand delivered. What more could you want?!

A Week Among the Flowers

This is a fabulous property. Two things stand out: the peaceful, beautiful garden setting and the cleanliness of the cottage. Diane and Charlie were always available to assist if we needed it. However, we never really needed anything because it was perfect.

Relaxing and step-free

Hosts were friendly but not intrusive, accommodating and responsive. The cottage was just what we needed for post knee replacement surgery recovery--accessible, step-free. Courtyard garden was lush with backyard habitat (in winter, mind you) and whimsical with gnomes and other decorations. We plan to return after the next knee replacement.

What a dream!

My 83 year old mom is visiting. This is a perfect place. The vibe is cozy, safe, and super chill. The vaulted ceilings and skylights added to the "retreat" feel my mom kept commenting on. The bathroom is accessible with zero thresholds and plenty of support bars for my mom to feel secure. The listing is accurate, however, I think underrepresents what a wonderfully, sweet place this is. Better than expected in all the ways. Thank you, Diane, we will definitely be staying here again.

Best VRBO property ever

We've stayed in probably 30 different VRBO properties through the years, but both my wife and I would rate this No. 1 - at least for what we're looking for. It was peaceful, serene, in a quiet neighborhood, but still close to all the amenities. The garden out back is wonderful, and place is clean, updated, and interesting. We were even treated to a couple jars of homemade granola from our hosts, who were lovely! We'll be back. ...

The perfect home-away-from-home

We stayed three weeks in this lovely and well-appointed and very comfortable cottage. Our visit was planned to spend time with family and to explore Portland, and the location was perfect for our needs. We could easily get to our family on the Washington side of the river and to another branch in northwest Portland. And we enjoyed many walks to and around Mount Tabor—such a wonderful city park! The cottage is nicely private, spacious, and very well appointed. We were very comfortable there and highly recommend the Garden Cottage for people needing a great place to stay.

Captivating Serenity

The cottage is a charming space filled with many captivating items within its walls, giving us a desire to better know the owners. It was thoughtfully supplied to meet all our needs and beyond - even a delicious homemade granola. This home in the Tabor Neighborhood further met our personal needs 1. to be near our daughter's home (only 7 blocks away) and 2. to be accessible for our son and his wheelchair. It is situated in the tranquil and enchanting garden behind the owner's home - such a lovely setting to sit with a cup of tea and drink in the peace & joy. The owners themselves, Diane & Charlie, were attentive, available, thoughtful, and a delight to meet. Thank you, Diane & Charlie, for our delightful stay.

We appreciated the ability to pop in and out with such a convenient location to explore Portland. There are eclectic details throughout, and the hosts have thought of all amenities you might need for your stay. The garden just outside the cottage door is lush and peaceful.

serene garden cottage

We loved this property. The backyard garden setting was very serene. The cottage was comfortable, very well decorated and appointed (even many spices, coffee, tea, baggies, etc etc.) and good lighting and wifi. The hosts were extremely friendly and helpful. The hot tub was especially nice after long days hiking. Highly recommend.

This was a beautiful property and courtyard with all that I needed and lots of peace. I did not realize that the property is connected to the owners home rather than a standalone. This did not seem to make a difference because it was a very quiet setting. I hope To stay again
