Hot tub, 3 miles from downtown Portland- The Pumpkin House

Hey Future Guests :)
We urge you to please read the entire ad and all house rules prior to booking. This pet-friendly home requires a $40/pet fee that is per night, and per pet. It will need to be paid after booking this home. Thanks for checking us out. We hope to host you!

Nestled into the trees, and just 3 miles from downtown Portland, our beautiful vintage Portland home awaits you. The HUGE covered front porch with a gazebo eating area is very inviting. Sit and watch the rain fall around you while you remain dry. Enjoy a cup of coffee in the morning and listen to the sound of the native birds flying overhead or take a soak in the hot tub. Our home is very family-friendly and we welcome pets!

2 BEDROOM, 1 BATH
- Bedroom 1 - King bed, twin bed & toddler race car bed: a HUGE hit with the smaller ones in the family. This room also has a big walk-in closet filled with toys for kids of all ages, and a nice deck off the room overlooking the beautiful backyard.
- Bedroom 2 - Queen bed, a standard crib, and a changing table.

AMENITIES
- Central Heating ONLY
- Pink-colored kitchen fully equipped to make your meals

PLEASE NOTE!
- MANAGER ONSITE: While this is NOT a shared home (meaning no one else lives in your space or uses the space you have rented) there is a person living on the property in a SEPARATE mother-in-law suite onsite, with a separate entrance.

It is cold and dark (if you aren't used to living in a home with a basement). This is a vintage 1940s home, with some original pieces still. It is not a fancy marble and granite counters home, it is more of a "Keep Portland Weird" home for those of us that prefer unique and different :)
- Please note that early check-ins and late check-outs are available at our discretion. There are extra fees for either of these add-ons when available.
- Please note there is a futon in basement not for sleeping, It is bolted OPEN, you can not make it into a bed, you can not sleep in basement, it would be illegal.

Cute Home
On site manager’s home is connected to houses bedrooms. She stomps around in what sounds like high heels on wood floors at 2:30am. Wakes us all up and doesn’t stop for an hour. Someone knocked on the front door, twice, at 9am our first morning and by the time I got to the door, they were gone. No sound of vehicle movement…I assume the on-site manager. Yard is NOT fully fenced! Beds were very uncomfortable. Hot tub was nice. House and furniture needs to be deep cleaned.

The house was nice and quiet. Parking was easy and access to the garage for storage was as described. Despite the weather being quite warm the house stayed comfortably cool. Access to food and groceries was good, it is a bit removed from the eateries in Portland but this was an expected trade off for the quiet neighborhood.

Cute place, a bit oversold
The house is quaint a well maintained but the description makes it look more than it is while it requires relatively high level of paperwork (e.g. sending ID, have to sign a waiver to use the hot tub..). The TV in the living room is extremely small, some lights in the living room are very bright and don't provide a cosy atmosphere. There's a tenant living in a room right above the garage, which shares a wall with the house. While the tenant is very quiet and thoughtful, you will hear them coming back home and walking around since the walls are paper thin (re-emphasizing that this is in no way the fault of the tenant). If you're sensitive to noise this can be an issue. Someone came cleaning the windows from outside during our stay without us being aware, which was a bit awkward. Otherwise the place overall is cute but it's certainly not as fancy as it looks on the photos.

Lovely stay
Cute place, in a wonderful residential neighborhood, very clean. Remote checkin process was great. Downsides: hot tub murky when we got there and even though was serviced, was still murky when we left (granted, we were only there 3 nights so chemicals hadn’t kicked in yet) What was once a beautiful backyard garden, has been sadly neglected.. Back patio needs some updated outdoor furniture. All in all, though, we had a great stay!

Not quite what we expected
The house is old, there are several small issues here and there with broken doors/hinges, a smoke alarm that goes off when you take a shower (if you don't open the window facing the street)... Overall, instead of noting the issues with the home, it would be best for the property manager/owner to just fix them. As others complained, there is a TV, but it is about 13", and the live-in manager above bedroom can be a little noisy.

Owner wasn’t forthcoming about someone living in part of the house that is closed off
After attending an event, we came home to find a car parked in the driveway and a light on in the attic. You cannot get access into the attic room from the house, the door is on the outside. But our group felt uncomfortable and it unsafe. We wish the owner would have told us, someone would be living in part of the house.

Perfect Portland Location
My wife and I live in Bend and love to visit Portland, but with two recent additions to the family hotels are no longer an option. We are SO happy we found the Pumpkin House, as it served as a perfect base from which to see friends and visit downtown - a quick 10 minute drive to almost everything and an even quicker trip to Washington Park to see the Rose Garden or The Children’s Museum. The massive added bonus is the wonderful deck and gazebo, where we spent every evening after the babies were in bed. It’s so quiet and there’s so much to look at and soak in. Furthermore we loved the bedrooms, it’s great to have a crib in one room, the kitchen and dining spaces are fantastic and we didn’t begin to take advantage of the HUGE garden which is very pretty. Overall a lovely property in a lovely location and it’s amazing to be so close to town but in relative quiet and seclusion.

Perfect for a Family
My husband and I loved that the house was very kid friendly with toys, kids beds, so we didn't have to bring extra. The location was great, very close to everything we wanted to see (Washington park for the zoo and children's museum, downtown and the amusementpark), house was cute with a big backyard. Our daughter goes to bed early (6:30/7pm) so it would have been nice to have more cable options like Netflix or Amazon to watch in the evening and a bigger tv, but we were able to rent redbox so it worked out. Overall super happy with the property.

Enchanting!
I can not say enough good things about this property! My spouse and I stayed there with our 4-legged companions for 11 nights while our home in Portland underwent remodeling. We felt so relaxed and supported in this home. If you are looking for a true taste of Portland, I would highly recommend this the Pumpkin House. The house is located closely outside of Portland in a very quiet and hilly area abounding with greenery. This is vintage Portland at its finest! The home is decorated in quintessential, funky Portland style. Someone obviously put a lot of thought and effort into making this home a delightful retreat spot for couples and families. The backyard is the crowning glory of this place. We were there in May and the beautifully manicured garden was in full bloom! There were roses blooming everywhere. There were also calla lillies, tiger lillies, and many others I can't name. The hot tub is sparkling clean and located near the house, where many bird and squirrel feeders attract all sorts of furry, cute critters. I could watch them play for hours. This property has obviously been well loved for a very long time. If you are visiting Portland, want something close-in and quiet, and love nature, I highly recommend this house. Kimberly was a great host and responded quickly and kindly to any questions I had.

A cozy retreat close to everything!
We couldn’t have picked a better Portland retreat to visit with family. It turned out to be a winter wonderland since it snowed much of the time. The hot tub was a welcome source of warmth and pleasure. We had our niece & nephew and their 3 young boys over to visit. They had a lot of fun playing foosball in the game room. The beds were comfortable and the sweet house had a vintage decor vibe. It was on a country lane but close to restaurants and downtown. We went out to dinner one night but then took advantage of one of Portland’s restaurant delivery services -just like room service! The TV was a bit small but we weren’t there to watch TV. Our little dog had a great time, too, even though it was too cold to spend much time outdoors. Frankly the snow was a great excuse to just hunker down and relax. What a nice house to do that in. Thanks Kimberly !
