We arrived at Rick and Krista's after a long day of driving, and found a lovely and serene upstairs room on a beautiful tree-shaded street. The entire house is beautiful and peaceful, and lives up to the name "Woodlawn Haven" - it truly is a haven. The bed was covered with a soft, fluffy down comforter; the dresser was stocked with a good supply of local maps and brochures; and we felt completely welcomed.
The neighborhood is beautiful and typical of Portland, with restaurants and a lovely park only a couple of blocks away. We had a car, but the house is only a short walk from the Tri-Met bus stop. It's very easy to navigate and find your way to downtown or any of the wonderful sights and activities that are available in Portland.
We really enjoyed talking with both Rick and Krista - they gave great suggestions for nearby places to get great food, as well as sights that we might not have thought of seeing. They were excellent hosts, and we're already looking forward to returning on our next visit to Portland.
