Welcome to Shift Vacation Rental’s Mississippi District location! We have a stunning urban oasis; a few minutes walk from the fun and trendy N Mississippi District. This newly revived area has become one of the hippest places to shop, dine and drink. The street is lined with chic foodie restaurants, live music venues, and a bevy of bars, boutiques and brewpubs. Colorful buildings line the main thoroughfare of Mississippi, while historic and charming residential neighborhoods surround the area.

This fully remodeled home will be beyond your expectations. Flooded with light and handmade touches this house is an amazing transformation of a 1920's bungalow. The house was remodeled for use as a vacation rental and set up perfectly for people to gather and relax in. As you enter natural light from windows and white clapboard wood surround, makes you feel like you've entered a sweet farmhouse. The open floor plan captures the kitchen, living room and dining room perfect for family and friends to gather in. Everything you need from a coffee grinder and maker, to cookie sheets, to blenders are all provided for you.

The kitchen is stocked with plates, glasses, etc to serve a big family dinner at the gorgeous wood dining table. It is stocked with everything from toaster, microwave, ice maker, blender, good knives, you name it. But, you may not even want to cook as you are within a few minutes walk from some of Portland's finest eateries.

The first floor has 2 bedrooms, and one full bathroom. One bedroom has a queen bed, while the other has a double down/twin up bunk bed. The bathroom has a beautifully tiled shower, with large rain shower head. Walk downstairs and you enter into another entertaining area, with TV, games, and cozy seating area. A perfect spot to send the kids to play while the adults hang upstairs. Downstairs has 2 bedrooms each with a queen bed. There is also a full bathroom with beautiful tile and a double shower head!

There is free street parking on the street. Typically you can park either right out front or within 1 to 2 blocks. It isn't bad for a city.

The house sits on a lot with another vacation rental, a 5 bed-3 bath, stunning modern home. You can rent both for larger groups, workshops, reunions! If you need more rentals we also have a duplex, a 5 minute drive away in the Alberta neighborhood. Contact us for more details.

We are fully permitted and compliant with the City of Portland. Permit number #TL90949.

Top Pick for the Portland Area!
Came together for my 30th birthday with a group of friends and family and couldn't have asked for better accommodations! The house was clean, well stocked, and comfortable. They left all the essentials, had comfortable beds, plenty of seating at the large table, and a kitchen that was perfect for cooking. Street parking plus the assigned spot next door was convenient, though we were able to walk to restaurants and stores from the house. Will think of rebooking for future trips!

Perfect modern house in a great location
Came down with friends for one night to watch a Trailblazers game. Proximity to Moda was close enough for a cheap Uber ride. And there are a lot of good restaurants within walking distance. Highly recommend this property for families or small group trips.

AMAZING PLACE TO STAY
We just loved our stay here! We had a large group and rent the back house as well and it was perfect for us. The owners have done such an incredible job with the house and there were binders with house info, local info on restaurants, bars, tourist spots, ect. We had everything we needed! The beds were comfortable and the house was well maintained and spotless. The location was great too!! We would definitely stay here again!

Great Portland Stay
The home is not only beautiful, comfortable and welcoming but in a great location in Portland as well. We had a rather large group, but found the home more than spacious enough -- even with all of us around the dinner table. Whitney was also super responsive, and helpful!

About the host

Hosted by Michelle Ruber

Host profile image
We are a husband and wife team who love to travel, mostly on bicycles, and love designing houses. We put both of those passions together with the two businesses we own. Encircle Design and Build is our home remodeling side, where we mainly focus on kitchens, bathrooms, and whole house remodels. We started Shift Vacation Rentals with our duplex on Alberta Street. When we were getting married we looked for a house that could accommodate all of our family members and couldn't find anything. This experience sprouted our idea to create well-designed, modern, artistic lodging for people coming to Portland in our favorite neighborhoods. We adore Portland and think its, if not the, then one of the best cities in the USA. We are excited to share our home and neighborhood with you as it offers so much. In the house there is a list of recommendations of what to do and see in PDX!

Why they chose this property

The location is amazing. Walking distance to some of Portland's coolest bars, restaurants, and shops. Mississippi District is the area that exemplifies what makes Portland unique, the locally owned businesses will inspire and wow you.
The house is adorable, extremely clean, well looked after and beautifully appointed. The house is only used as a vacation rental, so you don't feel like you are staying in someone's personal space. We strive to provide a home that is perfect and hope you have an amazing stay.

What makes this property unique

4 bedroom historic house with a bright modern interior steps away from hip and trendy Mississippi District in Portland.
