"The location was spot on. Wasn’t crowed wasn’t noisy. We had a rental car more than enough parking when we came back from exploring most of what beautiful Portland had to offer. I am an amateur photographer, so Frenchman Cove , Blue Lagoon, Winnifred Beach Reach Falls .. you get me !!!! They got explored. We didn’t have to worry about about driving back home late. 10 - 15min from most local spots."
