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. We don’t ask you to do any cleaning, stripping of beds or emptying of trash.

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.

The cottage is in a great walkable neighborhood close to many good restaurants and shopping. It’s a very comfortable little Home away from home. Communication with Susan was easy and prompt. Looking forward to staying in the Eco Cottage during my next visit to Portland!
The Eco-Cottage is one VRBO that is even better than the photos. Susan was lovely and accommodating. The neighborhood was absolutely charming and easily accessible by public transport. As an added bonus we got some of the bounty from Susan's beautiful garden. I would come back in a heartbeat!
We really enjoyed our stay! The cottage was perfect - it had everything we needed and the location is great. The neighborhood is within walking distance of so many fun places to eat and shop. We hope to stay here again when we come back! The big public rose garden right in front was a plus, too. Susan was a pleasure to deal with and we enjoyed meeting the dogs. Highly recommend this delightful cottage!
I love love this place! I've stayed here twice now and will be back in October. It's adorable, quiet, safe, and in walking distance to plenty of yummy places to eat. Perfect sanctuary during a visit here.
My brother and his wife stayed here and had only great things to say about it. Good location, nice neighborhood. Very nice design and they really liked furnishings.
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.
We really enjoyed our stay at the cottage. Ladds Addition is such a pretty area with lots of cafes and restaurants within walking distance. It is very quick and easy to get into the centre of the city by public transport so you don’t need a car. The cottage has everything you could want to make your stay comfortable.
Fantastic location with a market, restaraunts, shops, food cart pods, and even a comedy club in walking distance. Host was attentive and checked in regularly, made us feel very welcome. Will look for availability again whenever we come back to Portland.
Were in town to see friends and check out some restaurants and wineries. Love the neighborhood and being central to all of Portland. Was a very comfortable place to stay and hosts were very welcoming, but also had total privacy. Highly recommend.
I loved everything about this place and my experience with Susan! The house is both homey and spacious. So comfy and well equipped. The neighborhood was lovely and we could walk to everything. We will be back!
This was a great location. Felt like home. Clean, cozy. Great neighborhood with so many fantastic stores & restaurants nearby. Susan, Art & Bernie ;) were very nice. I wish I could have stayed longer!!
This little cottage had everything I needed. Located across the street from a rose garden, and furnished with stylish mid-century modern decor. Lovely way to embed in a Portland neighborhood full of restaurants and shops
This was my first time visiting Portland and the Eco Cottage is inspired living. It’s clean, beautiful, eco friendly, and perfectly walkable to so many restaurants and shops. It’s also a short drive away to do some hiking and see waterfalls and other spectacular views!
Oh my gosh, I loved Susan’s spot so much. It felt incredibly homey and well kept. It was walking distance from a ton of sweet restaurants and shops. Susan was absolutely lovely. I would absolutely go back in a heartbeat.
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 !
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.
I have visited Portland many times but never spent any time in Ladd's Addition, and it was so cool! A little funky with all the one way streets but you are surrounded by parks, rose gardens, and easy walk through beautiful tree-lined neighborhoods to coffee, restaurants, etc. The place is comfortable and was nice to have fans and good windows to help it cool down at night. Easy communicating with Susan and the lovely to be in a place thinking from an eco-friendly perspective, we would stay here again!
