Shannon was the ultimate host! Not only was her house the most charming I have visited yet, but my boyfriend and I were welcomed with detailed suggestions for travels in Portland, fun stories, and the BEST recommendations for eats! She was extremely flexible and accommodating (we were house hunting and had to add an extra day last minute). The house is cheery, clean, and spacious. It felt like visiting family...the favorite relatives ;) We stayed upstairs and the bed on the far room is the coziest (you won't want to wake up...it's almost a problem). You meet a host, but leave with a friend~
