This is a lovely, quiet, family-oriented neighborhood, just off the beaten path from the hustle and bustle of lively 11th street– recently voted one of the coolest streets in America!

The primary bedroom offers a queen bed and an en suite bathroom complete with a soaking tub and standup rain shower. The secondary bedroom includes a full bed, while the office bedroom features a trundle that can be configured as either one twin or one mini king - please reach out to Portoro prior to arrival to provide preference. A second full bathroom on this level ensures added comfort and privacy - amble space for your entire group to get ready for a day of adventure or night out on the town. Throughout the home, discover cozy nooks filled with books and greenery, perfect for moments of peace.

Take your pick of vendors and find a seat beneath the shady trees and string lights at one of the many colorful picnic tables. Bars: Full Circle Bar: Plenty of beer, cocktails, and skee-ball. That's right, you can let your inner child out while you enjoy a few drinks with friends.
