Whole House Alberta Quick Facts:
You are renting both parts of the duplex so you have 2 kitchens, 2 living rooms!
7 bedrooms (4 in top part- 3 in lower part)
3.5 bathrooms (2 full in top part- 1.5 in lower part)
You need to walk outside to access the units, they aren't connected on the inside

Step into an authentic Portland experience in this amazing totally remodeled 7-bedroom duplex, located in the heart of the Alberta Arts District. Walk to coffee, dining, unique shops...or people-watch from the large bay window or cozy patio.

Alberta Street is never short on variety--from juggling bicyclists to dogs dining with their owners at the Tin Shed Cafe (across the street!)...pubs, co-op grocery, galleries, and shops...and you can easily walk to it all. We have partnerships with many of the local stores, giving you incredible discounts- a major perk with renting this house!

The house sleeps up to 15 guests and was designed and used as a full time rental. We provide fresh linens, a fully-stocked kitchen, flat screen TV, wifi, and all the comforts of home.

A well behaved dog is allowed. The pet fee is $175.

The upper level has 4 bedrooms and 2 full baths plus a patio facing Alberta Street. The lower level has 3 bedrooms 1.5 baths and large patio just off the side yard area....Each unit has a full kitchen, living/dining space, and a washer/dryer. Many guests use the upper level as the socializing/dinner area..and save the lower level for guests who need some quiet time...or great for a place for the kids to hang out.

To clarify, this is a true duplex with separate entrances (you cannot enter the units from the interior) but a very popular choice for large groups. One unit is entered from the front and one from the back. The side outdoor area is spacious and includes a large picnic table, grill, and a very cool play structure for the kids.

15 minutes to the airport, 10 minutes to downtown and there's a bus stop on the corner. Best of all, it's within an easy drive to all that Portland has to offer-from hiking near Mt. Hood, a zoo visit downtown, a day trip to the incredible Oregon coast. Plus directly outside your door is Alberta Street- the authentic, local neighborhood vibe will welcome and amaze you. There are so many bars, cafes, stores and restaurants all within a lovely stroll. This rental has it all--location, comfort, and space!

Need more space? We have two other rentals in the chic Mississippi District.

We are fully permitted and compliant with the City of Portland. Permit number #TL90695.
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned vacation home, featuring a kitchen with a refrigerator and an oven. There's a private patio. Complimentary wireless internet access keeps you connected, and a Smart television is provided for your entertainment. Conveniences include a microwave and a coffee/tea maker.
Enjoy recreation amenities such as a water park or take in the view from a garden.

A Special Home Away from Home in NE Portland
This was a perfect fit for our multi-generation family of 10 with dog. Rooms with comfy beds for everyone, enough space for all to gather, and fun decor. Handy to nice eateries, grocery shopping and little boutiques, and plenty of convenient side street parking. If your large party is looking to be in NE Portland, check this place out.

Everything was great! Property location was perfect. But we wish the property had its own parking& driveway. Also, the shower curtain in the main floor bathroom needs washing. Its white& the bottom is pinkish brown already.

Wonderful house in great location
We all agreed this was one of the best places we’ve ever rented. Michelle made us feel at home and even brought over a homemade pie! (It was delicious.) Nothing was lacking - it was clean and comfortable, easy instructions, and helpful tips. We spent one afternoon playing the games she provided. All in all we had a great time there.

Family of 12 for the 4th!
Wow! What a wonderful home! We scheduled our family adventure this year to Portland from NC/SC. My wife and I traveled with our six adult children, spouse, fiancé, and partners (12 of us). The house served us perfectly! The home was beautifully decorated comfortably appointed. The location was outstanding! Right across the street from tin shed, the coffee shop, and next-door to the sushi restaurant. So much of the Alberta arts within walking distance, the courtyard and the plantings were beautiful. The owners were extremely responsive and helpful. I would highly recommend this home for your next day in Portland. Tom.

Fabulous Location, Lots of Amenities and Great for Families
We did a family vacation for three nights in both the upper and lower unit. The location was incredible. Right on Alberta close to shopping (so much vintage) , great food, bars and spas for the adults. There was also kiddo shopping like Greenbeans books and Grasshopper Toy store. The house was clean and kitchens well equipped. We used the outside patio and play areas and appreciated the kids toys and games. I will absolutely rebook with this location.

Conference group
A group of my colleagues stayed here for a conference at the Oregon Convention Center. We got so lucky with the location! There are all sorts of cute eateries right on the street the house is on. My only regret is we didn’t get more time to explore the immediate area! The house was clean and thoughtfully designed. We were able to hang out there because there were multiple seating areas to accommodate the large group. The beds were super comfortable too! Thanks, Michelle! I would definitely rent this space again.

Alberta Arts District Stay
Gathering of 5 longtime HS friends and their mates for a shared birthday celebration this year. Great upstairs /downstairs layout for both shared time together and occasional privacy. Wonderful location in the heart of the Alberta Arts District. Michelle & Klaas are warm, excellent hosts. Provided a special birthday gift to us. Everyone enjoyed the house, the location, and the our 5 day experience there - and meeting Michelle and Klaas!

Wonderful house in perfect location
I celebrated my birthday with my husband and several friends, and this was the perfect house for the occasion. We rented the top and bottom units and everyone fit comfortably with plenty of space. There are so many cool restaurants, bars, and shops within minutes of walking, and we felt safe walking around the neighborhood. The hosts are super friendly and responded very quickly to the question we had. Beds were comfortable, as were the sofas/chairs in the living room where we hung out. The back patio was a fun area to socialize. I definitely recommend this house!

This is one of the better vacation homes that I have ever rented. Thoughtfully laid out, well supplied, and clean and comfortable. Parking can be a little tough at times but it’s worth it to be right in the middle of Alberta with access to all the restaurants and shops. Thanks Shift!

What an amazing stay! We booked this as the end of our trip and wanted to stay in Portland but not downtown. This was such an amazing location for our family. Everyone had their own space & the kids enjoyed the toys. We took advantage of being in walking distance to so many places. We tried many different eateries, bakeries, shops & bars in our short 3 day trip. Would definitely stay here again!
