Peaceful Weekend Getaway Near Portland?

Hey everyone! I’m racing the clock to plan something special for my husband’s 41st birthday in a few weeks and could really use some ideas. We love gifting each other trips or memorable experiences instead of physical gifts, but this year is tricky—he just started a new job and is in his probationary period, so he can’t take any time off. He works long, early hours during the week, so I don’t want to over-plan an exhausting weekend.

We have limited funds, but I’d still love to surprise him with a short getaway from Portland—somewhere within 2-3 hours max to make the most of our time. It will just be us and our pup, who also has a birthday coming up! We prefer peaceful, secluded spots and tend to keep to ourselves, so I’m thinking something like glamping or a cozy cabin. Maybe somewhere along the Washington coast since he’s from the area and has been just about everywhere in Oregon!

Would love any recommendations for unique, quiet places to stay and things to do nearby if anyone has any insight. Thanks so much!!
