Things to Do

Downtown Portland

Where do we begin??? Portland has so much to offer from restaurants, breweries, art galleries, and more. The City went through a rough time during the pandemic, but has improved much over the past year. Reach out to Melanie and Jack for their favorite spots.

International Rose Test Garden

400 SW Kingston Ave, Portland, OR 97205, USA
(503) 823-3636

When visiting Portland during June, the International Rose Test Garden (a/k/a "The Rose Garden") is a must see. Located in Washington Park, not far from Melanie and Jack's house, Melanie's parent's house, and Jack's parent's house.

Portland Japanese Garden

611 SW Kingston Ave, Portland, OR 97205, USA
(503) 223-1321

Jack and family have been members here for many years. A nice tranquil escape and beautiful views of the City. Conveniently located across the street from the International Rose Test Garden (see above).

Oregon Zoo

4001 SW Canyon Rd, Portland, OR 97221, USA
(503) 226-1561

One of Jack's favorites. Great to pair with the International Rose Test Garden and Portland Japanese Garden.

Amaterra Winery

8150 SW Swede Hl Dr, Portland, OR 97225, USA
(503) 961-6057

Melanie and Jack have been members here since it opened 3 years ago. Conveniently located down the street from Jack's parents house. While the Willamette Valley wineries are amazing (and worth going to if you have a car and the time), Amaterra is conveniently located a short distance from Downtown Portland.
