Quiet, pretty suburb of Portland.
Walk into the city in about an hour; buses available; Uber about $15.
Mt Tabor a 5 minute walk away with lovely woodland walks.
The main street, Hawthorne, is only a five minute walk. Loads of coffee places, bars, cafes, restaurants, shops and (for some reason) barbers!
Mary and George are excellent hosts who are available if you want them but do not impose.
I had a terrific time there.
