About the host

Hosted by Barbara Mascarenas

Host profile image
An e-commerce guru from upstate New York, a college instructor Colorado native, and a quintessential 16 year old Mainer, we love our life in Portland, but we love to travel, too!

Why they chose this property

We came to Portland on vacation from Washington, DC and never left. We immediately fell in love with the neighborhood and rented until we found the right house to buy to be in this location. We are close to everything downtown offers, but our street is tree-lined and neighborly.

What makes this property unique

For visitors, the location is excellent. The Old Port is about a mile away and there are many things to do, see and eat between here and there. The neighborhood is the perfect combination of residential and downtown living. Our backyard is cozy and comfortable. The house itself is roomy with plenty of space to spread out. (There are three good sized tables for eating, working, playing games). The kitchen is ready for you to enjoy meals in, including a lobster pot and all of the tools you need to crack them open! That said, you probably don't want to do a lot of baking on vacation ... but we have you covered. Famous Tandem bakery is right around the corner, Zu bakery is a short walk through the West End and the Holy Donut is just down the hill!
