We only stayed for one night as we were passing through Portland but in hindsight we wish we would have stayed longer. The apartment was exactly as advertised - very private and actually more spacious than I thought it would be. We arrived late at night and Rhonda and Doug not only greeted us but gave us a tour and made it well known we were welcome to join them on the deck (we were too tired unfortunately). Doug greeted us the next morning as we were leaving and gave us some great suggestions for places to see and eat for various points in our road trip. The neighboring towns are delightful as we grabbed breakfast at Marco's cafe (we recommend as did Rhonda and Doug) and did some shopping at the boutique type stores. We definitely recommend.
