Our stay with Sally, Jake, and Joey was wonderful. The house is beautiful and cozy and we were provided with all the necessary household things to make it feel like home for our visit. Coffee was provided, as well as special snacks, spices, and anything else we might need. The gardens are beautiful and we used both the hot tub and the fire pit, which was a lot of fun.

The house is about 12-15 minutes driving from downtown Portland, but that's part of what made it such a great experience for us. There is a wonderful park just at the end of the street and we found places to get some groceries and lunch close by. We spent more time in the house than originally planned because it was particularly hot in Portland while we were there, but it was a great experience and much more homier than a hotel could ever be.
