Absolutely great rental house!

We rented this property for a family gathering and it was great! The house was clean, well stocked and the location couldn't be better. The host was very helpful and answered any questions we had. I would definitely rent this property again.

Gingko House

Beautiful, updated property with lots of charm. Very clean. The amenities were plentiful, including lots of extra towels, pillows, and outlets for all our devices. Can't forget the updated kitchen and plentiful bathrooms. You'll never forget Homer Simpson. LOL!

Great host and location

Extended family were in town for a wedding and wanted to stay together. This place was ideal - 7 of us fit very comfortably in the house and Belladonna was a great host. The location was great - It was a short walk to coffee shops and a choice of restaurants. An added bonus was that it was very close and convenient to the airport (as several of us had early morning flights!).

Terrific place!

This place was terrific! We had a group of family & friends in for several days for our daughter's wedding. The place was clean & fresh with many thoughtful little touches to make our stay comfortable. The finishes - tile, paint & wallpaper - were of good quality and added fun little touches everywhere. The neighborhood was walkable, with restaurants, coffee shops, and a very nice market nearby. The host, Belladonna, was welcoming and concerned to make our stay special. We would definitely recommend this place for any larger group.

Great Accomodations for Groups

We had a staff retreat in Portland and this was the PERFECT house for our group. It was clean, very well appointed, and so great to deal with the owner. Lots of rooms and spaces for everyone to spread out and have their own areas. I would highly recommend!

Comfortable and Great Location

We were a family of 10 visiting Portland for a wedding. This house was perfect and comfortable for all of us. The rooms were decorated just as pictured and the beds were comfortable. The neighborhood was quiet, clean and safe. We had a lot of restaurants and markets within walking distance. We would highly recommend staying here.

Great girls weekend

We had a wonderful time staying here. The property is just as pictured- everything is high quality and comfortable. It’s also very spacious with plenty of beds and baths. Bella was always easy to contact and very helpful and accommodating the entire time. We loved the location of the property as well. Highly recommend this house and would jump at the opportunity to stay here in the future!

Spacious, Amenities and Location

Our group of 10 booked this house for MLK wknd. We absolutely loved the space (3 levels of rooms and living space, all exactly as described), the location was super convenient to Alberta Arts and cost only 15-20 to grab an Uber or Lyft to Downtown/Pearl, and the amenities allowed us all to make home cooked meals and do some laundry. Loved the Homer Simpson bathroom! Everyone made sure they took selfies with him! Wouldn’t hesitate to rebook it again if we’re back in town and it’s available

Bella has provided everything we could have looked for!

We were three couples using the property. Each of us had their own level with a king bed and either one or two full baths. The house provided us with space to be together as well as privacy for showering, sleeping, etc. Two levels each had an extra bedroom with a pair of twin beds which we did not need, but seemed great if there were families. The lower level was at street level....not a basement. It had its own entrance, kitchen, laundry facilities. An indoor staircase connected it to the rest of the house. Great property.....walking distance to a GREAT bakery and other eating establishments. WE HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS PROPERTY

Very chic house!

We had such a lovely time at the Ginkgo House! Our group of five friends were very well accommodated here. Close to everything but not too close to hustle bustle. Loved all the utensils and other special touches. Everything we needed was at hand. The decor was spectacular!

Wonderful Home ! Very clean and well equipped the attention to design and detail is impressive.

My sister and I came to Portland to wedding dress shop for my niece with all the brides maids. The location was perfect, we could walk to the market and restaurants are also just down the street. We all where very impressed with the decor and the environmental awareness the home owners had when setting up the house. The kitchen is modern yet retro and every basic was thought of without being cluttered. The bathrooms are clean and spacious with excellent lighting. Here again the owners have brought together design and implemented welcoming environmental practices ( no tiny plastic bottles) bulk liquid soap and small soap slices. Very clever! The living room and sitting room have ample seating and our 8 month old and 3 year old were very safe and comfortable with the layout. We were pleased to find a high chair and child proofing in the house. The family games for the littles were great and the games for the rest of the crew were a welcome addition. The bedrooms were comfortable and had plenty of connectivity for phones and laptops. The linens were perfect with lots of extra pillows! I loved the organic coffee and the view of the neighborhood in the morning was a wonderful way to start the day.

Perfect for families or large groups!

We're so glad we found this gem! We were visiting from out of state with 6 family members. Plenty of room for all of us and well stocked with everything you need. We stayed 6 nights in the main section and added the downstairs rental for 2 nights for our college-student son and his 4 friends. Worked out perfectly. We made a few of our meals in the main kitchen that has everything you could need to cook and serve. The home has been recently remodeled and is in a very nice upper scale neighborhood with lots of restaurants, coffee houses, brew pubs, grocery stores, and more nearby. Every morning we walked one block to Extracto coffee house for the best espresso drinks and super friendly staff. In the evenings we walked to Concordia Ale House or Expatriate bar, both close by. We were a little concerned that street parking might be difficult, but there were always spaces right outside the house. If you have a large group, you'll be very happy here.

Gingko Guesthouse

Our trip to Oregon was wonderful, beautiful scenery, fabulous restaurants and many opportunities for sightseeing. The accommodations were first class. Bella thought of everything we could have wanted or needed and more! There were six adults and we had plenty of room. The home was immaculate, close to restaurants, and shops and was decorated beautifully. We had a wonderful time and give Bella a 5-star rating for her concern and excellent recommendations!
