Kate's home was beautiful and showed the best aspects of Portland. We loved the clean, comfortable bed with a porch view, the wonderful shower, and for me especially, I love freshly clean white towels. It was a dream. Kate was so accomodating, letting us drop luggage off early when our flight arrived a few hours before check in. She also baked an amazing blackberry pie. I felt welcome but we were allowed to do our own thing. I would come back!
