We flew in to Portland and PDX was quite convenient to the house! We did rent a car and stopped to walk around Mt. Tabor park prior to check in time. What a cool park, in the city! When we got to the house, parking was easy to find and right across the street.

Mari was the perfect host! She greeted us when we arrived and shared suggestions about nearby parks, hikes, restaurants, and such. We appreciated her ideas and loved the drive along the Columbia River gorge and hike to Wahclella Falls she suggested. We found lots of delicious places to eat and enjoy local coffee and beer, only a short drive away. We enjoyed coming home to such a peaceful, comfortable, unique location. The Garden House bed and pillows were super comfortable and Mari's handmade "pain pillow" was such a nice gift! We stayed on 2 cool nights in September and the little fireplace-like heater in the room was perfect to warm the space! The room was spacious and we appreciated having the mini fridge. The Moon Room, bathroom, was only a short walk away and so neat! We loved the wood and copper details in the Moon Room. We also enjoyed walking through the garden and interacting with TinTin the cat on our walks :)

We certainly hope to stay again someday, whenever we make it back out to the Pacific NW.

Thank you!!
