Weekend stay at the Zen Cottage
My partner and I loved our stay at Lill’s zen cottage. Lill is an excellent host who was available and quick to answer questions when needed. She was quite helpful and close by, but we accessed the home without meeting her and we never felt our space was imposed upon. The home is well appointed, comfortable, and peaceful. The listing is accurate. The location was great- we were able to get anywhere we wanted to go with ease. Being able to walk to the park was a nice bonus. All in all 10/10, will stay here again when next in Portland!

Wonderful cottage in great area
We came into town to tour colleges for my son’s spring break and this rental was perfect for us. Very accessible from the airport and in a very safe, walkable neighborhood. Great restaurants nearby and all of the amenities you would need for a getaway - full kitchen and laundry are a plus! Lili is a wonderful host - very accessible and onsite in the event of any problems, though our stay was perfect and without any issues with the property. Thanks again for everything!

Alberta Sanctuary
I had a wonderful, peaceful, rejuvenating time. It was the perfect location for me, access to the city, restuarants, shops, grocery store and nearby parks. The kitchen was well stocked. The only thing I would note is that the bed is incredibly SOFT, so be aware if you like a firmer mattress...

Wilshire Park Gem
We spent 2 weeks at this ideally situated property in late October. Inside is clean, modern, tastefully furnished and accessorized with so many extras to meet every need. The location is almost adjacent to a beautiful park, yet within easy reach of choice restaurants and unique shops. Superior host will make this a memorable stay in Portland.

About the host

Hosted by Lill Madland

Host profile image
I love being a vacation rental host and have had the pleasure of having guests from all over the world! I have been involved in this industry for more than than seven years and given my love of travel, try to create a luxurious accommodation, much like the kind I would enjoy staying in. I believe that people appreciate all the little things that make your stay memorable: a fully equipped kitchen with spices, coffee, teas, and much more. You will find many extras in the bathroom as well. In addition, there will be a welcome bottle of wine to start off your vacation. In the summer you may enjoy organic vegetables from our garden, figs and asian pears.

Why they chose this property

Talk about "location"! Located a block away from Wilshire Park, you are in the heart of NE Portland. This cottage is located in a very quiet residential neighborhood. The Alberta Arts Area is a four block walk away, the Historic Mississippi District in a five minute drive, and downtown is about ten minutes away.

What makes this property unique

This is a newly renovated cottage, complete with brand new everything. As a designer for 30 years , I love creating something special: a place that you will fondly remember and want to return to.
