This was a nice old house. Very Clean and had everythign we needed. Arrival- We arrived at night and struggled a little bit with the lack of light and unconfirmed parking. The Vacasa Customer Service was very helpful when we had to call to get the outside door code. There is a spot on the left side of the house as mentioned on the ad. However, there was already a car there and didn't want to block it in. We did park off to the side of it near the porch which was doable due to our small car. Overall- nice older house with lots of personality and close enough to walk to the downtown and wharf areas.

Great location

Centrally located apartment near lots of dining options, green space and art museum within walking distance. A bright and tastefully furnished space with comfortable beds. Down sides are: no laundry on site, a cramped bathroom, shared parking and several unfinished aspects to the space.

Cumberland Avenue Casa

This home was very clea, well appointed, and comfortable. The mattresses were just right. The neighborhood is quiet at night and within walking distance of all Portland's attractions. The security locks were a bit tricky to figure out, but we were able to get assistance from the Vacasa staff. Overall, an excellent rental!!

Bright, spacious home in a great location

After a bit of confusion getting into the house, we found a nice, very well lit, spacious home with lots of windows. The beds were pretty comfy. The location was great, easy walk to the state theater, easy to walk to lots of cool bars and restaurants. The harbor and that touristy area were about 20 to 25 minute walk away, which was lovely in the nice weather. Overall, it Served well, for four people wanting to explore Portland.

Not great

The location was good, although on a busy street. The entry was dilapidated with dead potted plants, and trash. Kitchen not well stocked with cooking supplies. Parking spot not guaranteed. Seems to be under construction/remodel. Dishwasher and freezer did not work.

Meh

It was mostly fine. A good location with easy walkable access to downtown. Furnishings were cute but minimal essentials— the dishwasher was broken, the sofa bed was broken, construction equipment scattered about so backyard was unusable, towels smelled like smoke, and only 2 rolls of TP for stay. The outside door code was only shared once during the initial booking, and we needed to contact customer service to figure out how to get in. Overall, if you only want to sleep in the beds and get to downtown quickly, it works. Cooking, hanging out, etc would be less easily accommodated.

Very cute interior, walkable to Old Portland

The house is VERY cute, beautiful colors, two big beds in the two very big bedrooms. It had a nice living room with a dining table in there, by the windows (there are LOTS of windows in this home) and the kitchen had everything we needed. We had access to the backyard, which was great for the kids. The locks/keys/codes were easy to use. Sometimes there was someone parked in our parking space, and since there's no street parking right there, that was really inconvenient, but they were nice and moved their car when we could find them. There is a Trader Joe's super close with a great parking lot. The home was very cute and light and bright. We liked it much better than staying in a hotel in the town. We almost opted for a hotel to have a view of the water, but they don't have good views, so we are glad we chose Cumberland A!

Holiday stay with a few bumps

The location was clean and relatively quiet for its location on a busy street. A few things were broken (disposal, roll-out bed frame that would not lie flat) or unusable (dishwasher power stopped two minutes into the wash cycle). With the holiday weekend they were not fixed in a timely fashion. The layout of the place with the one bathroom door un-openable was awkward whenever people had to climb over the person sleeping in the living room. Would not recommend this location for a group that needs more than two functional beds, but it would be okay for two couples or a couple with a young child. Hosts were responsive to requests but it must have been tough to try to figure out repairs over a holiday.

Read carefully on each page

This property was listed as having parking for 3 on one page and then on another it was parking first come first serve. We didn't have parking most of our stay. The codes were wrong to the locks, we were stock outside for 30 minutes. The owner drove up and yelled at us for parking in the wrong place... Property was clean, fresh, but not worth the aggrevation of parking and noise from construction that seems to be ongoing there. I was told I was going to get a discount after complaining so much about the parking and never recieved the refund. I should just stick w/ hotels. Lesson learned!

YOU WILL PAY 40/NIGHT FOR PARKING

Vacasa is a TERRIBLE company. This is now officially the third time we've been burned by them. When we agreed to renting the property, only then did we realize we were working with Vacasa. One day before check in, we received an email from Vacasa stating if the designated parking spot was not available then to park in the 40/night parking garage down the street. WHAT. No matter how cute and clean this apartment was.... This ruined it all. I spent an hour fighting Vacasa with a VRBO rep on conference call. The Vacasa rep was rude, hostile and straight up gas lighting. When she finally referred me to her MANAGER, did I actually get somewhere. I was promised reimbursements for the parking fees by the time I was done with the hour long call. But shocker, NO REIMBURSEMENTS have been made. Extremely disappointed and not sure where to go from here.The apartment itself was really cute. Two bedrooms, one bath. Very nicely furnished, super clean and within walking distance to Congress St. I wish we didn't have to deal with the parking issue, because this would have been a five star review otherwise. Renters beware.

Nice space, but outweighed by safety concerns

The property itself is located in a great location that allows for walking distance commutes to some good food and sites. If nothing else was wrong I would have given this place 5 stars. However, upon our initial check in we experienced some safety concerns that I'll detail below. My group entered the residence around 6PM, past the standard 4PM check-in listed and well after the free early check in that was texted to me at 12:25 PM that day. However, once we walked into the residence it was clear someone was still staying there in one of the bedrooms because there was a sleeping bag on the bed, shorts on the ground, and laptop on the side table. We immediately got in contact with Vacasa who said they would look into the issue. We went out the rest of the night and communicated with Vacasa through phone calls and texts. At 7 PM I was notified that "the owner may have had a few things left at the property" but that I was "ok to enter and stay". It was unclear if any additional cleaning had been done to the room so we ended up having to switch the bedsheets out ourselves and just hope for the best. On top of this, later in our stay we realized that the spare key to our stay was right above the door frame and not very well hidden, meaning that if anyone just broke into the porch door they could have easily accessed our stuff. I'm not one to write negative reviews but I was so disappointed in the lack of professionalism and safety concerns displayed by the owner/management.

Very great stay, short ubers to everything! A few issues with minor things throughout the house, but they were brought up to the owners, so hopefully fixed before your stay!

Great space, newly remodeled

Great space & wifi, walkable to lots of attractions. It’s an historic house, so the walls are thin, you hear neighbors and street noises occasionally. There’s a broken necked guitar in the corner that sounds pretty good!

Not recommend

It is not as close to walking to eateries. There isn't a book to give detailed info of the area, or phone numbers. We had 1 bath towel, 4 wash cloths, 1 hand towel for 4 adults. We had to call and wait, which we eventually received. The living room rug was in need of a good cleaning. We moved a rug and you could tell it hadn't been vacuumed good in a long time. Trash had piled up from others by trash can that was full too. Backyard had construction equipment and inside the house too. Apt. B ladies had trouble opening lockbox and we helped them. Never was able to open their lockbox. We were able to help to know how to lock door without key. Know it's an old house and needs work. We love old homes but clean, well kept ones. Overall, would not recommend this.

Communication goes a long way

We stayed at this property at the end of July 2024. The apartment is very cute and has details of old charm. The kitchen was a nice size and seemed to be well stocked with essentials although we didn't cook much. The single bathroom was very small. Our family made it work but it would have been awkward for 2 couples or 2 families to share it. The communication with the property owners/managers was my biggest complaint. The apartments upstairs were being renovated at the time of our visit. Because of this, our apartment was covered in dry wall dust. The extra bedding was also covered in dust. I 100 percent get that that happens when construction is taking place but knowing ahead of time would have been nice. Also because of this the "porch" mentioned in the title of the property was completely unusable. The back porch had an old stove on it and the front porch had piece of drywall on it. There was also mention of a washer that we were never able to find. The emails that were sent and the information on the app were different making some situations confusing. The parking at the property was also confusing. We were never sure if we could park in the designated spot and ended up having to talk to the "neighbors" and the construction crew about it on multiple occasions. I got an automated message asking how things were when we arrived and I mentioned the cleanliness issue and never heard back about it. I probably should have pursued it beyond that.

The house was clean and the area is very walkable to local coffee shops, stores and tourist attractions. The parking situation needs improvement. There is one spot for the whole place and it is first come first serve. There is parking available in a garage down the street. Other guest came to our door late at night asking to move up since we “share” the space. When we voiced our confusion to the host; nothing helpful was given in response.
