Portland is amazing for a young couple or singles. There are more breweries there than any other city in the world. Beer is dirt cheap (like $4 pints) and even cheaper during happy hour, which every bar and restaurant has ($2-3 drinks, $3 food). They have 100's of food trucks covering every facet of food created, and almost every meal is $5 and under. I'd love to spend 10 days getting drunk and fat in Portland. There are also a ton of great wineries in the Willamette Valley area, right around the city.
For a family, there is Mount Hood for hiking and outdoorsy stuff, the coastline is supposed to be amazing.
Also, people from Oregon are super friendly.
