We recently stayed at Robyn's guest suite for the Country Music Marathon. It was the perfect set-up. Getting up to the start line was a breeze. My husband, who was not running, was easily able to sleep in a bit and make his way to watch the race, which crosses just a block from the house. After race day, we enjoyed wandering the area near Robyn's home (we highly suggest Bella Napoli for pizza). We also could easily make our way downtown or to Hillsboro village to eat and explore. We did quite a bit of walking and found it an enjoyable way to see the area, but cabs were also a breeze (and around $7 from downtown).
