Peaceful beauty minutes from city
We had a wonderful time at Melissa’s place- so much we extended our stay.
The yurt itself is roomy, comfortable and cozy, with a lovely, large and stylish bathroom a short walk down the gently sloping hill on which the yurt sits atop. The bathroom is located inside an open barn, where we found an electric kettle, mugs (which were replaced daily), tea and a generous variety of snacks. The whole stay was kindly thought out by the host, who was very easy to reach, communicative and friendly, while still totally respecting our privacy- I had the pleasure of meeting her, but only after we first talked about it through the app messenger.
Even though this property is only about 15 minutes from Portland, it really does feel like you’re in the country.At night we were able to walk out of the front door to what looked like a painting of the Big Dipper stretching across the sky right in front of us. The perfect opportunity for my five year old to use the rad telescope that is in the yurt.
I don’t have a single negative thing to say about this place, and highly recommend it! If given the opportunity, we would return in a heartbeat!
