*Please note - there is a $100 pet fee if you choose to bring your dog.
*Spacious bedrooms and open living space with hardwood floors
*The bathroom is newly renovated with a newly tiled tub/shower.
*Finished basement with living room space, TV, and bedroom area.
*Reliable high-speed internet
*New heat pumps for heat and AC
*A deck with a gas grill and a fully enclosed and nicely landscaped backyard.

You will be staying in my family's home (you will have the entire property to yourself)– you should find space in the top drawers and some hangers in the closet. Please respect our space and belongings.
The home is 7 minutes from downtown (the Old Port). Whole Foods is also just a short drive away--as are Trader Joe's and other local supermarkets. And, of course, Portland has world-class restaurants.
I'm happy to provide advice to guests. As a native of the area, I can help recommend local restaurants, bars, nature, beaches, parks, music venues, breweries, etc around Portland (and can also provide insights for other points of interest in Maine.)
No smoking is allowed in the home. There is a $100 pet fee if you bring your pet during your stay in our house.

Summary: The property is clean, well organized, with everything that we needed on site! So grateful to be able to experience Portland with our pup- the neighborhood is very quiet and friendly, nice parks nearby, and downtown easily accessible by a longer walk or Lyft/short drive! Sarah was extremely communicative and available for questions leading up to, and during the stay- highly recommended!
