We had a wonderful stay at Horsefeather Farms Ranchette. The setting on Applegate River can't be beat! The innkeeper/owner Maryanna is absolutely delightful and made us feel right at home. The cabin itself is very spacious. We appreciated the ambience provided by the fireplace and vintage kitchen sink and stove. Very cute. We love to travel with our dogs, and it can be difficult to find a place that will accept pets. The cabin was pet friendly, the property is fenced and Maryanna's dog, a Great Pyrenees mix was very social and said hello to us every morning. The only reason we are giving 4 instead of 5 stars is that the bedroom and bathroom are a bit dark. The dim lighting made it a bit difficult to see into our suitcases in the bedroom and to put on makeup in the bathroom. A few brighter lights would have knocked this review up beyond 5 stars! All in All, this will be our go-to place in Applegate read more

You want magic? You want your own place where nature, animals, and corgi's live in harmony? Go here. Go now. Call MaryAnna, and experience this heartfelt gem of a place. Horsefeather Farms is a beautiful plot of land on the Applegate river, with two options for sleeping quarters--a rustic cabin and a camping trailer near the river that has been turned into a semi-permanent abode. You are surrounded by old, large trees, stunning grounds all around you in a seemingly endless maze of tomato plants, grape vines, gardens, and chicken coops. The animals here are the happiest, friendliest creatures on earth--all because they were rescued by MaryAnna and given a top-notch life of peace and rest--they know it, and they show it. We make our pilgrimage here a few times a year if we can. So close to home, yet so far away, we always leave refreshed and mystified by the beauty, friendliness, and connection we gain from the visit. I can't say enough about this place--hope you can experience it for yourself! read more

I love this place. We have stayed on this property seven times and we already booked our trip for October 2015. We love the farm, the garden, the park, and the river in the back. We are a family of 8, the husband, 4 kids, and two boxers. We cook outside daily by the river. It's so peaceful and beautiful. Marianna and Neil always make our stay comfortable. We enjoy picking fruits and vegetables from the garden. The farm animals are fun to pet and feed. And one of my very favorite thing.... Are the freshly baked cookies that Marianna puts in the cottage as a welcoming gift. I always order dozens cookies from their bakery down the street before I leave to share with my family and friends for back home. read more

A good friend and I stayed while deer hunting in the Applegate unit. Couldn't have asked for better deer hunting accomodations. A great place to come home to after a long day of hunting in the Oregon late season wet weather. Dry, warm and comfortable. read more

My hubby and I just spent the weekend at Horsefeather Farms Ranchette and LOVED it! Before arriving I called Maryanna to arrange the date. I have to be honest, after talking with her I decided that two nights were in order. I fell in love with her over the phone. She was friendly and bubbly over the phone. I am so glad we had two nights!! We could have filled another day in the cabin, maybe 3 nights next time. The first meeting with her on Friday afternoon sealed the deal. When we met her she threw her arms out for a hug like we were old friends. Such a sweetness! That was only the beginning. Her animals were amazing. Friendly dogs were excited to meet us. If I remember correctly there were 7 dogs. They helped us say hi to all the other animals (goat, sheep, horses, alpaca, mule, geese, chicks, roosters and many, many more birds) on the farm. Her daughter takes after her with friendliness (she was also our waitress the next morning). What a great experience to be with all the animals. Never being raised near animals it was all new to me. This was a great way to break into the farm world! Fed the horses some hay and we were out for the day. The cabin is (as described best by her) cowgirl meets victorian. The place is clean and well appointed. It is good size with a twin/queen bunk in the front room and a king size bed in the bedroom. The place easily sleeps 4-5. Make sure that you have comfort with the bathroom being open. It's separated from the hallway with a curtain. No problem for my hubby and I but I can see where it might be uncomfortable for some. After sleeping harder than I have in years I re-awoke from the dead (10 hours?) and we headed off to breakfast 2 miles down the road. Make sure to choose the breakfast option as this place is also great (see my other review under Applegate Store). The location is really ideal for wine tasting which is what we had planned for the weekend. After enjoying a winery we went into Jacksonville for lunch and shopping. It was great to get back to the ranch! Another relaxing evening and a great nights sleep before heading out to visit the animals again. This time we were able to meet the peacocks! Beautiful Boys as she likes to call them. Then we remembered the zip line in the back with the swing and the river. What a beautiful park setting. This is when I realized we could spend another day/night out here reading and relaxing. After enjoying another winery we had to go back to say goodbye to Maryanna. I believe we were there for another 2 hours before realizing that we needed to head home to get ready for our work week. What a great place, we will be back! read more

I wanted to add my 2-cents worth about this place as my wife, Molly - a.k.a. sweetie pie already reviewed it. It was everything she said - warm, cozy and fun. 2 nights is a must. Once again the people, Maryanna and her family which includes all of the animals, really made the place. She is wonderful and brings sunshine wherever she goes. The questions that everyone should ask themselves is "Should I go back?" and "Would I recommend this to my friends?" In both cases a resounding Yes!!! read more

GODS COUNTRY! We spent the 4th of July with Marianna and her family. You are part of her family when you are there. I felt like when we left I was leaving home. Our lab was at home with her pack of dogs, the collection of animals she has is unbelievable. Her birds are amazing! My daughter want to do "ART" camping, so we made dream catchers at night and played on the beautiful Applegate river durring the day. An enchanted valley close to Medford but in a world of its own. I can't wait to return!! What a sweet, kind family. Wyatt, was the perfect "camp" host and a great showman (he lit the families fireworks, which we were invited to share) A great amazing time had by all..... THANK YOU MARRIANNA! You were so very kind. read more

Made our first trip to Oregon. Our friend suggested staying at Horsefeather Farm to shorten a trip we had to northern OR. We did not want to leave MaryAnna and Neil's beautiful place. We have three children ages 11,10 and 9. They had a great time with the animals, running around the grounds and enjoying the amazing weather and cool water (this is a riverfront property). We will definitely be returning. They made us feel right at home and welcomed us like family. read more
