Fantastic vacation home for 2!

Great little place in south Portland! Close to many parks, lighthouses, and driving distance to downtown. Parking downtown and in the old port area can be tricky and expensive though.

Fabulous

My husband and I had a wonderful weekend in South Portland and enjoyed the central location and charming touches of Jennifer’s apartment. The space is lovely, exactly as described in the listing. The communication was clear and detailed. We will definitely return!

Excellent first visit. The listing appeared to fit our needs, and that turned out to be accurate. We were in the area for a long weekend and wanted to be close to Portland but also able to get to areas like Cape Elizabeth and Scarborough, so South Portland worked well. There was good space for the two of us - the living room and bedroom were comfortable; the kitchen had all of the items one would expect; and the bathroom, although compact, was just fine. The unit had a lot of light; the furnishings, accessories, and supplies were all of very good quality; and the place was extremely clean. It seemed clear that the property owner wanted to make it an appealing venue for visitors. She was also extremely responsive - we didn't have too many questions, but when they came up, she answered quickly. We would be glad to stay there again and would certainly recommend it.

About the host

Hosted by Jennifer

Host profile image
I've moved home after living on the West Coast for 12 years. Currently residing on the beautiful East End, it is such a pleasure to have discovered that over the last decade or so this neighborhood has grown into a wonderfully diverse, safe and welcoming community. Plus, I love being able to walk to brunch and to the market! I desperately missed those outings, living in the car-centered culture of Los Angeles. It's been a wonderful experience meeting and hosting people from all over the world who are visiting Portland!
