sounds of youthful angst coexist here with Shakespeare,
Broadway shows, ballerinas, chamber music ensembles and full
blown classical orchestrations. Music isn't the only
thing you will find here. Try one of many outdoor
activities available year round where you can take in some of
the country's best scenery. Perhaps you are into history
and culture, if you are, Portland has monuments, museums, and
historic sites for you to visit. We are pretty sure no
matter what brings you here, you'll enjoy the stay.

North Clackamas Aquatic Park, where you can ride four foot
waves and water slides, or, visit an old fashioned amusement
park. Oaks Amusement Park features roller coasters,
