Home and location were perfect! Loved walking to the Saturday market and all the restaurants in the city center. Loved looking at the lake from the back yard too. Perfect
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this English cottage. The architecture and the eclectic furnishings are amazing. The house was well stocked and very clean. Mary is a gracious host and recommended excellent restaurants in town and points of interest. The view of the lake from the house is something everyone should experience. Lake Oswego is a great and friendly community. We celebrated my wifeâs birthday with our kids and everyone loved our stay. I highly recommend this property.
This lovely property was exactly as described and more! Cozy, elegant home in the perfect location, walkable to restaurants, stores and local farmers market. Very relaxing with everything we needed, as if we were guests in someoneâs home as opposed to a rental. We will definitely return! Loved it. So many fun walking trails too.
We loved every second at the property. It is a great location and has everything we needed. The owner is friendly and responsive. You will not be disappointed in this rental.
It was a very comfortable home and had all that we needed to host Thanksgiving dinner for our families, couldn't of been better, really enjoyed our stay there, it was our home away from home and we'll be back next year.
Thank you
Loved our stay for many reasons, location is fantastic to walk into Lake Oswego, cottage is really cute and outdoor view just lovely and Mary was really responsive and a great host. Thank you!
We have stayed here several times and find it a lovely, beautifully decorated, well stocked home. The neighborhood is walkable and close to a center with many shops and restaurants.
Our daughter is in school nearby so we have stayed in this beautiful house numerous times. I can't imagine staying anywhere else when we go to Portland. Wonderful house in a lovely area.
We had a lovely week at this gem of a property! There was a perfect balance of historic charm and modern amenities to make our stay very comfortable. Luckily, we had great weather while we were there, so we spent quite a bit of time on the serene patio enjoying the view of the lake. Mary was very accessible by phone and responsive to any questions we had. Looking forward to our next stay here!
We had a wonderful week's stay at this charming home. It is beautifully and, most important, comfortably furnished and decorated. The location was perfect for us and a lovely neighborhood for walks, with restaurants and shops about a mile away. The trains did not bother us at all; in fact, my husband loved them! We will look forward to our next stay.
I booked this house for my mother and mother in law for their Christmas visit. It was perfect! The view of the lake is amazing, the location is ideal for walking into town, and the home could not have been more comfortable. What a gem!
The VRBO is exactly what it is advertised plus some. The owner, Mary, is wonderful and very accommodating. The house is so lovely. Our daughter is in college nearby and since we stayed there when we dropped her off, she was looking forward to staying there as well.
Very close to stores, shops and restaurant. I can't imagine staying anywhere else when we visit Portland.
Just spent a few days in this lovely home for a reunion with friends. We loved every minute! The home is beautiful and has a great view of the lake and trees. It is very quiet so great for a relaxing vacation. The location was perfect, very close to town and restaurants, also a very easy drive to Portland. The house had everything we needed and Mary is a wonderful host, very responsive. We would all definitely recommend it!
Mary Puskas is the owner of this beautiful property and has resided in Lake Oswego for over 40 years. She is civically engaged and has served on the Lake Oswego City Council, been the President of LO Rotary and is currently President of the Oswego Heritage Council. Her family lives walking distance from her home. She is a truly welcoming hostess who enjoys people, travel, and great food. She can offer many suggestions of great places and things to do while visiting the Lake Oswego and the Portland area.
The Allan house always receives great reviews by those who have enjoyed spending time there. Architect Richard Sundeleaf is noted for the beautiful homes he has designed in Lake Oswego. The Sundeleaf Park on Lake Oswego Bay at State Street is named after him. His style has influenced much of the character of the Lake Oswego community. The cottage home is much loved and has been put on the historic register of the City.
The beauty of sitting on the patio listening to the birds transports you to a feeling of being tucked away in the country while being walking distance to many of the great attributes of the city.
