If I could travel to Portland a thousand more times (and, believe me, I wish I could), I would do everything in my power to stay at Dan's home all of those thousand visits.
Dan is THE top notch host, who makes the art of welcoming guests his specialty. He stocks his home with everything guests could possibly need, or want! Clean, crisp linens and towels, amazingly comfortable beds, shelves of kitchen appliances, utility room with new washer/dryer - you get the picture, there is nothing missing in this home.
His home is immaculate, it is beautifully decorated - yet so so comfortable. You will find yourself being perfectly content to just hang around at his house. And, the outside backyard deck with tables and chairs is soul-soothing while looking out over the backyard that is full of green, luscious plants and vegetables, that Dan makes certain to share.
It is a lovely neighborhood, so quiet you will sleep wonderfully. Yet, it is very easy to travel from, being conveniently located.
I'm not one to write many reviews - in fact, this is my first! But if ever a home and its owner deserved a 10 Star review, it is this one!
