Excellent Location, Close to Parks, Groceries, Single Level Detached Retreat, 15 Minutes to Portland
Rules note: This property is completely non smoking of any kind. It is an adult only rental so please no kiddos for the reasons mentioned above. There are also no pets, no firearms, and no fireworks. Pets of any kind cannot be allowed as this property is an allergy sensitive area. There is room for one vehicle out front so please limit yourself to that. "There is one security camera placed outside which is facing outward and not guest focused. Please ask if you have any questions regarding this."
This rental is intended for Adults. Due to the concrete floors, the owner does not feel it safe to have young children in here who may fall on the floor. There is also a small pathway up to the front door that has a pebbled walkway and step up, so we recommend those who can walk easily unassisted.
This is a bright, modern, one bedroom guesthouse sitting at 753 square feet. It comes with your own complete kitchen, entrance, parking space, and front yard on a quiet street. The guest house is behind the owners main home, which is roughly 30 feet away.
If you are in need of a peaceful retreat within a 15-minute drive to downtown Portland, 10 minutes to the popular Sellwood, Division, or Hawthorne districts of Portland, you have found it. The Woodstock neighborhood is great for biking, a walk to Woodstock Boulevard for stores & eateries, or a stroll in the park. Reed College is about one mile away, as are five different parks, and The Rhododendron Gardens.
The guesthouse sits behind the main house and the owners. They are wonderful caretakers of both properties and you may see them pop by for a quick hello. They will respect all the privacy you need but certainly want all guests to know they are available if anything comes up.
If you are looking for a longer stay, that is possible too. Whether a travelling nurse, a visiting professor, or someone looking to relocate to the area, the Under the Cedars Guesthouse will be quite convenient. It's a perfect fit for those commuting to OHSU, Providence Hospital, Portland State University, and so many more.
Please note that the address in the listing is our main house address, so in directions, you will be given specific directions onto 50th avenue where the guesthouse is located. You have access to the whole guesthouse and its own front yard. We want you to have a good time, but we would ask that you respect us and our neighbors by keeping your noise down; quiet hours are 10 pm to 7 am weeknights, and 11 pm to 8 am weekends. ONLY guests included in your reservation are able to be in or on our property, unless you make special arrangements with us in advance. Please don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions at all.
The Wifi in the guesthouse is fully operational for watching movies, phone calls, and connecting to work websites. Bandwidth may not be adequate for gaming. Hosts are also on the network
The guesthouse is conveniently located in a quiet neighborhood and only a 10-minute walk or 2-minute drive to Woodstock where there are restaurants, shops, and stores to enjoy!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this property! It was perfect for a long weekend and close to many amenities. Would definitely stay here again when we visit Portland!
Excellent property. Easy check-in; immaculate cleanliness; all the amenities you would need; comfortable bed; good shower and a perfect location for us to visit our grandbaby! Definitely want to stay there again.
Very convenient, clean, well taken care of, comfortable, quiet, well appointed guest house. Will stay again when visiting our daughter in the area.
Thank you for offering such a great place to stay.
Cozy , comfortable , safe guesthouse ! I would highly recommend a stay here . Good neighborhood location- fully stocked for a longer stay . Very good hosts !
This is a great property close to my son and his family. We definitely want to stay here every time we visit. I have a difficult time sleeping in hotels and I slept so well here. Love it!
This is a cute little stand alone property that is perfect for us. Close to my son and his family as well as grocery stores and restaurants. The house is quiet and very private.
My husband and I stayed in this comfortable cabin while helping our Reed College student move into off-campus housing. We were in walking distance of lots of coffee shops, restaurants, and shops, and we really enjoyed ourselves between runs to Costco and IKEA.
This property included everything you could possibly need for your stay. The bed was extremely comfortable. It is close to grocery stores and restaurants.
This is my second stay at this property, and I love it as much this time as the last. The place is immaculate and so well thought out. If I travel to Portland to visit my family, I will schedule my trip around this property's availability.
So easy to walk through the park and get to shops and restaurants, including food truck pod. Well stocked. If you're coming in winter, pack some slippers as the floor gets cold (heat works well, but floor is concrete).
A cozy clean & most well-equipped cottage. We wanted for nothing. Would love to stay again.

Peaceful and Comfortable
This was a perfect place to stay while visiting family nearby. The home was inviting and comfortable. We enjoyed playing cards out front under the trees. The neighborhood was peaceful and quiet. We enjoyed walking through the Woodstock Park and to the many restaurants and shops on Woodstock.
The house was exactly as described. Very close to several great restaurants. My favorite part was the proximity to Portland Leather Goods outlet store. 😁
The location was very quiet and nice. The home was well stocked with books, utensils, bathroom supplies, etc. The binder had tons of ideas for things to do and places to eat in the area. It was the perfect place to have a quiet getaway. The hosts were very attentive and checked in via text to make sure I had everything I needed. Great place, would definitely stay again.
My husband and I attended a conference in Portland and preferred finding a VRBO over staying in a hotel. This house was perfect. It was just south of the conference location but easy to get to downtown and everything else we chose to do. It had all of the amenities we needed. It was clean and well equipped for our stay. I would highly recommend!
Stayed for 5 nights as we prepped to move my daughter into her college apartment. Perfect for the 2 of us. Nice quiet street and well located to all things Portland!

Cute little home away from home.
Appreciated how clean and organized this little place is. The property managers thought of everything including detergent pods for the washer and dishwasher. Nice bed that was great for my hubby who has had multiple back surgeries. We would stay here again.
