We stayed in the Urban Barn for just a short time while in Portland for a graduation. The property was very clean and comfortable and in a fantastic neighborhood! Wish we could have spent a few more days there to explore and are looking forward to returning someday!
This is a neat little place pretty close to so many things in Portland. We came specifically to go to Powellâs and try some local favorites and the location made that really easy. It was nice to sit outside and both see and hear different types of birds. The street is quiet even though itâs only a few blocks from shops, restaurants, and other things to do. We enjoyed our stay at the barn and would stay here again.
I would stay there again in a heartbeat! Wonderful place. In fact, I wish there had been more time to enjoy it (was in town for a conference) because itâs the perfect environment to hide away for a couple of days. The location is phenomenal, with top notch food/coffee options on a block or two away.The owner was great with communication and a very warm host.I highly recommend all around!
My sister and I loved the home, all the amenities and location. It had easy walking access to grocery stores and restaurants. We had a wonderful, relaxing experience, spending quality time together and exploring Portland.
We would love to visit again!
We loved staying at the Urban Barn. I liked how it was built to commemorate an old beloved barn that once existed on the site. Also enjoyed the decor and appreciated the efforts to recycle and be âgreenâ. Very artful place. đ
After a stay of five nights we feel the way we did when we first contacted our host and when we first walked in the door: great location; comfortable space to hang out in; very considerate operation. Weâll
Definitely be back!
This was a wonderful place to stay. The owner was very helpful and pleasant. It is also beautiful, tasteful, and comfortable. The Barn has a very zen atmosphere. It is in a very convenient neighborhood with lots of shops and restaurants nearby. We would absolutely recommend it and will stay there again the next time we are in Portland.
The neighborhood has all you need within a few blocks. The owner/manager promptly responded to my questions about the door lock and the neighbor's flood lamp that shone into the main living area 24 h a day. I would definitely stay here again. Thank you!
We stayed at Susanâs place for 3 nights and loved it. Very nicely designed and laid out. Will definitely try to stay here again and highly recommend it. Susan was always quick to respond to messages and great to deal with. Thank you.
This home was just what we were looking for...Close to so many restaurants, shops and within walking distance to my son and his family. Perfect for three people. Susan was wonderful. Thank you for a perfect week. M
Susan was excellent to work with and the house was amazing. Super quiet yet close enough to everything we wanted to do. Clean, well laid out and very comfy for my son and I. He mentioned how great it was too, which means a lot coming from an 18 year old!! Thanks Susan!
I've lived in Portland's Ladd's Addition neighborhood since 1992 originally hailing from L.A. and living for a few years each in NYC, Maui and the eastern Sierra Mountains. Hospitality is in my DNA, having previously managed vacation rentals in Nicaragua and on Maui. I'm a passionate backpacker, fly fisher and cyclist and gardener, growing perennials and organic vegetables. I love to eat and seek out new fine dining opportunities as well as unique food trucks and I'm happy to share them with you. During your stay, I can lay low, offering privacy or be a resource for your intro to Portland's many interesting offerings. For inspiration, these evocative words speak volumes to me.

We chose this area and built this property to introduce an interesting and eclectic, quintessentially Portland neighborhood for out of town guests. It has a walk score of 95.
