It's a big old historic home on a large lot right on the Willamette River. We stayed on the third floor and the view was unbelievable. I know it sound crazy but I loved sitting in the turrent, watching the river. I brought a book but never expected to enjoy sitting and reading as much as I did. A large bald eagle greated us on New Year's Eve. It was so relaxing. We will definitely stay with Tim again when we come to Portland. Also, there are lots of coffee shops and restaurants within walking in the St. John's area. We walked more than we expected and loved it! Thanks for sharing your beautiful home with us!
