PDX Eco Cottage Guesthouse

Sunset magazine honored us with the Small Space, Big Dreams Home Award and we're featured in the September 2014 issue. Additionally, Portland Monthly Magazine highlighted the cottage in their series on cool guest houses as 'a great environmentally friendly place to stash yourselves while in Portland.' In SE Portland’s historic Ladd’s Addition neighborhood and within walking distance to the newest restaurant row on Division St. An ideal alternative to a stuffy downtown hotel, this cool, home-away-from-home, designed with mid-century modern styling and comfort, is located in one of southeast's hippest neighborhood, close to downtown, public transportation and an acclaimed and flourishing restaurant row. ~~Please note that the $80 cleaning fee is due at check in, in cash~~ City of Portland ASTR Permit # 14-207831-HO If you think you might need to cancel outside of the refund zone, please consider getting traveler's insurance as we adhere to our cancellation policy.

The cottage is privately located at the back end of the owner's lot, is full of amenities such as radiant heat floors, skylights in every room, cable TV, wifi, a ceiling fan, full kitchen with a gas stove, oven and dishwasher.

The bedroom has classic, blonde 1950's Heywood Wakefield furniture. 100% cotton sheets and towels; plus shampoo, conditioner and Dr. Bronner's peppermint soap are provided in the sleek shower. We're perfect for one or a couple.

The cottage earned an Earth Advantage Green Building platinum certification for utilizing innovative building practices to reduce dependency on non-renewable energy. A rack for shoes is provided so they may be left outside in summer and just inside in winter.

There are two entrances to the cottage - one from the street with on-street parking and another accessed through the alley. The private patio with seating and a table is all yours with a striped awning to protect from the hot sun in summer.

Ladd's addition has a 'walk score' of 92 - perfect for strolling around the rose gardens or using the nearby bike route to get around the city. Funky hawthorne blvd. Is the northern border of Ladd's with culinary-rich Division St. To the south, gaining prominence for its growing and innovative restaurant scene and unique shops. Nearby clinton st.'s bars and coffee shops as well as restaurants round out why this area lands you in the heart of what makes portland unique - small, boutique restaurants, an independent movie theater and one-of-a-kind businesses for shopping. We are a block from a children's playground.

Cute cottage in GREAT location
The Eco Cottage was perfect for our couple’s getaway. Ladd’s Addition neighborhood was a pleasant surprise. Quiet neighborhood with food, drinks, & shopping all within a couple minutes walk. Cottage was simple, but had everything we needed for our stay.

Cozy, stylish cottage in unique neighborhood
We enjoyed our stay at the PDX Eco Cottage. Impeccably designed and decorated, the cottage was a great place from which to explore Portland. Everything about the place was well thought out. The neighborhood is great as well - we suggest taking a stroll as we did to visit its 5 parks (4 diamond and 1 circular).

Great private location that allowed for walking to the neighborhood market, several restaurants, coffee shops and bars. The cottage was quiet, very clean, well appointed, and had all the amenities needed. The radiant heat is wonderful! I am considering this my 'home away from home' when visiting Portland in the future. I will definitely stay here again!

The perfect location for the perfect cottage
From start to finish this cottage has everything you will need to make your stay even better. Available compost and recycling was a big plus for us and the reusable grocery bags susan leaves to use where great when we made trips to the local grocery stores ans shops all within walkimg distance. You really couldnt ask for a better location to have as your starting point to see the city! We highly suggest this eco cottage and cant wait to plan our next trip there !

Perfect spot, perfect location
The owner has put in thought and work to create a lovely space that feels like a secret garden in the heart of Portland. There are so many great restaurants that are walkable and the neighborhood layout is so unique. The location was perfect for staging day trips to Mt. Hood or Cannon Beach, while still being able to enjoy the city. She was great and communication and quick to respond to anything we needed. I highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Portland.

This is lovely cared for cottage, thoughtfully created with everything you might need for a great stay in Portland. The neighborhood is beautiful and quiet but only a short walk to the bustling Division St neighborhood with many great restaurants and New Seasons grocery store close by. Thank you for a fantastic stay! We definitely recommend this place. Jane
