Our home is an enjoyable space to relax with family or friends.
It has a very functional kitchen with a 4 burner gas range, oven with convection, a 4 slice toaster, an under cabinet microwave oven, very nice heavy stainless steel cookware, ceramic coated frying pans, as well as cast iron, blender, coffee maker, coffee grinder, mixer, barware.
Laundry is located in the basement and soap is provided.

There is a fire pit, it is new and runs on propane.
Guest access
The guests will have access to the entire house with the exception of a closet off the master bathroom, a closet in the basement and the garage interior.
The house will all be yours as will the large driveway where you can park up to 3 cars on site, and 2 on street, and private fenced yard.
Other things to note
We have no dining room in the house, but we just purchased a small dining table and 4 chairs.
There is also a bar area between the kitchen and living room that seats 2, as well as seating in the living room for 5, a wicker pouf, and a 4 seat umbrella table outdoors.
There are guys who mow the lawn on thursdays, so you may want to keep an eye on your dogs that day because the gates will be open for half an hour or so. It’s usually in the afternoon.
Our home is dog friendly, and you can bring your canine friends along with you. We would limit the amount of dogs to 3 small dogs or 2 larger dogs.
There is a simple fee for bringing your pet friends along with you of $50, you will check the box for pets when you book, or i will request it after you check-in. This is to offset the cost of lawn repair, and hair removal. We provide towels and sheets to cover the bedspread if your pets like to sleep on the bed with you. We also have a doggie door suited for small to medium dogs, 2 sizes of dog beds, as well as food and water bowls located in the basement. Please pick up after your friend with the provided bags.
If you have allergies to dogs and cats our house may not be your best choice, as most of our guests have dogs, and some have cats.
Its a great neighborhood for walking or cycling, with bike paths every direction, and to downtowns waterfront. Nearby Sellwood has Oaks amusement park, a great place to take the kids. Sellwood Riverfront Park, a great dog park on the Willamette river, great for swimming with your pups and kids in the summer, and a nice place to bring the beach chairs and a cooler (all provided).
