About this property
Private city retreat; Cozy Studio w/Backyard.
- Nestled in the heart of Portland’s east side, this private garden guest suite in the Laurelhurst neighborhood offers a peaceful, light-filled retreat with easy access to the city. The space features thoughtful decor, a full-size bed with deluxe pillows, a newly installed A/C and heater, and a compact but well-equipped kitchen with an induction burner, microwave, air fryer, Chemex with provided coffee, teas, and basic cooking staples. The studio opens directly onto a lush shared backyard, with your own little patio. This cozy rental offers plenty of privacy and everything needed for a weekend getaway or month-long stay.
I live in the main house and am available if you need anything, while giving you as much space as you prefer. You may also meet Rosie, my friendly 80-lb dog; if you’re bringing a pet, please let me know their needs so introductions can go smoothly. Enjoy a calm, comfortable, and conveniently located home base for your Portland stay.

Clean, charming, safe, beautiful, convenient and peaceful place to stay! Because there is no laundry I’d say not suitable for more than a week but really lovely for a few days! It’s incredibly convenient to Kerns dining and New Seasons, both of which I very much appreciated. As a single female traveler, I also enjoyed how safe it felt. The decor was lovely and there appears to be a high quality hair dryer available to use as well as nice linens and reliable WiFi.
