Beautiful setting, but at $250/night we were surprised at the moderate accomodations. If you check anywhere that charges $250/night it is "luxury" pricing. Similarly, the dining was nice but priced way above value. I guess they're the only game in town (or on the river) so they price that way, but I'd rather see pricing correlated to value or service, not just because they are catering to the well-to-do's. read more

My wife and I had a wonderful time at Steamboat. We stayed in the Falls Suite, which is the best spot on the property due to the seclusion and the view, and found everything we needed for a relaxing, romantic stay. The bed is comfortable, the suite area in the living room was homey and inviting (we didn't need the fireplace due to the warm weather), and the soaking tub was very inviting. We ate 2 dinners and a single breakfast at the restaurant and were impressed by the food each time. Truly a magical setting, and a great place to unwind and recharge. read more

Came here for a quick lunch The river view and the garden is gorgeous The food,however, is pretty basic. It's not bad. Just nothing memorable. The good thing is that it's pretty fresh. Service is great as well. Price is a bit on the higher end but there's nothing else near here. read more

As others have said, this is a spectacular location! Our 2 night stay in the River view cabin #7 was very comfortable. The room is large enough to accommodate the king bed, two comfortable chairs and two small drop leaf tables with room to spare. It's very helpful that there is a walk-in type closet with a small dresser, luggage rack, clothes rod and wall hooks to stash all your gear. These are not luxury accommodation but the bedding and towels were quality and the room was spotless, not a dust bunny or loose hair anywhere. There are no refrigerators so you are dependent on the restaurant or bringing an ice chest. The dinner menu is a bit limited, with only 3 entrees, if you are staying multiple nights. The steelhead was excellent! My husband said his tenderloin was perfect and filling. I found both dinner and breakfast vegetables ( I had the hash) were too oily, not greasy, just unnecessarily oily. The serving staff were wonderful, especially Fiona. I would like to come during the fall to experience the golden big leaf maples, amber dogwoods, and the gas fireplace in our room.

Our stay at Steamboat Inn on July 13 was a wonderful part of our trip exploring the spectacular waterfalls and hiking trails along the North Umpqua River. We stayed in one of the Hideaway Cottages, tucked into a peaceful wooded setting just a half mile from the Inn. The cottage was quiet, comfortable, and surrounded by nature, making it the perfect place to unwind after a full day of hiking. After settling in, we enjoyed a wonderful dinner at the Inn's restaurant. Dining outdoors beside the beautiful North Umpqua River was an unforgettable experience. The setting was absolutely breathtaking, the food was excellent, and the friendly, attentive service made for a relaxing and memorable evening. The only drawback to an otherwise exceptional stay was the complete lack of internet access. We understand that many guests appreciate the opportunity to disconnect from the modern world, and there is certainly something refreshing about being off the grid. However, as hikers exploring the area, we would have appreciated having at least limited Wi-Fi access--perhaps in the registration lobby--so we could download offline trail maps and check hiking conditions before heading out each morning. That small convenience would have made an already wonderful experience nearly perfect. Overall, Steamboat Inn is a beautiful retreat in one of Oregon's most scenic locations. If you're looking for a peaceful getaway surrounded by nature, outstanding dining, and a relaxing atmosphere, this is an excellent choice. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would happily return on a future visit. Mike & Debbie read more

We stopped in for Sunday brunch on our way up to see Crater Lake. This gem of a spot is located right next to the Umpqua River so you can enjoy the sound of the rushing river while you enjoy your meal. The service was exceptional. Great attention to needs. Our server brought out a water bowl for my dog and extra blankets for our group. He was smiley and personable. Now to the food...sooo good!!! I didn't write down everything our group got but there were satisfied sounds all around. The stuff French toast and cinnamon roll were delicious. The hot chocolate comes piled high with cool whip cream. Thanks to our local friends for taking us here! Definitely stop in if you're in the area. read more

Amazing food, quick and friendly service. My only disappointment is that when I called earlier in the day to ask if I needed to make a reservation for two for dinner on Saturday at 5pm, they said no need, we can just walk in. When we arrived, we were told we couldn't sit outside because all tables were already reserved. Wish they would have told me over the phone when I asked because we really wanted to sit by the river. We still had a nice experience and took pictures outside after our meal. They also sell tshirts, stuffed animals and other things. Prices are reasonable. Parking in the front. Go check them out. read more

Great place to get away out in the woods. Cabins were clean and well appointed. Just be clear that when they say there is no wifi or data connections, they mean it. You will be cut off except for the wifi at the main building which does not provide much bandwidth. Location is ideal and great for hiking around and relaxing. Food at the restaurant was good even though they had a power outage and were forced to only use the outside grills. They recovered quickly from a bad situation and provided all that they could to make their guests happy. read more

Although we were here well over a month ago, I still wanted to give this place a shout out before more time went by. This very cool inn and restaurant out in the middle of nowhere has a solid local-leaning menu and rooms to let... and lots of peace and quiet. I guess some folks call it a lodge, which feels that way inside, but from the outside it's a very nondescript building that could've been a Howard Johnson's motor lodge in the 70s.. so don't expect that classic woody NW vibe when you first drive up. Speaking of which, it's a bit of haul to get there, from either Roseburg to the west (about 45 minutes) or Crater Lake to the east (over 2 hours), on a remote, narrow road hugging the Umpqua River, but that was one of the things I loved about it. It's all about the journey, right? All that said, it is definitely a charming - maybe even idyllic - spot that's sure to lower your blood pressure a notch or two soon as you walk in the door. Simple cabin / lodge-like interior with a front desk and gift shop/merch area to the side, lotsa wood everywhere, and the main dining room just beyond. Out the back door is the outside seating area where we settled for lunch since it was a beautiful late summer day. The place is very casual - or at least it was for our meal, and we traded jokes with the super witty waitress before she went to fetch our order. Our outdoor table was a great call, with the Umqua River providing the perfect background soundtrack about 100 feet away. I ordered up the Rachel sandwich - a surprisingly perfect combo of sauerkraut, grilled turkey and melty Swiss cheese piled onto lightly toasted marble rye - and a frosty pale ale, and all was right with the world. I know, it's just a sandwich but sometimes the stars align. There are a few cabins set a bit closer to the river, nothing fancy there, but which look like something we might want to explore next time we're back. I hear dinner is a fancier affair at the Steamboat, but for a casual lunch in a bucolic setting, it didn't suck. read more

I've always been curious about the Steamboat Inn and finally stopped last weekend. Nicely done on the inside the view outside is beautiful. I had Mildred mess- smoked turkey with melted cheese lettuce and tomato. Steamboat potatoes is choice for most meals. If you're heading up the North Umpqua highway I suggest stopping. read more

Steamboat Inn has a long history. It started as a fishing camp. Fly fishing is so good there that people would travel for miles just to enjoy the scenery and excellent fishing. After a while some rental cabins went up and a cafe to accommodate travelers and things just got better from there. Steamboat Inn is now a fishing lodge with an excellent restaurant and small store with drawers of fishing flies, polarized glasses to see through the water glare, hats and sweaters to keep warm, various souvenirs and excellent food! There is an inside dining area with picnic benches and tables with a nice view. We opted to sit outside in the garden for breakfast amongst the trees and flowering bushes. We could hear and see the river from our table. Across the river we could also see the nicely recovering forest from the fires of 2020. Fortunately nature and topography spared Steamboat Inn from the fires and it is still a very scenic peaceful place. Staff are very friendly and didn't seem to mind us doing a bit of table hopping outside until we found one that offered the view we all agreed upon. The outside dining garden is so well manicured that it didn't really matter where we sat, all the tables were excellent. Some had umbrellas, some were shaded by the magnificent old growth timber. Oh! Food! Yes, they offer some nice coffees and so we enjoyed some lattes. I found the Logger breakfast to be very tasty with their special house potatoes, sausage, cheeses and some 'Grandma's Homemade Bread'. The eggs were cooked perfectly to my request and we were checked on frequently. The food was very good, service was excellent and it is about a 45 minute drive up hwy 138 from Roseburg. I recommend stopping off at the town of Glide in between to take a quick look see at Colliding Rivers, an excellent little pit stop on the way to stretch the legs and see thundering rivers meet at a confluence. Steamboat Inn is worth the sightseeing drive. read more

We just enjoyed our 45th anniversary at Steamboat Inn, as we have three times before. Jessie and the other servers were delightful and rich sources of local waterfalls, trails, and personal entree favs. Pit ham Benedict, Beef stroganoff, Blackberry pie, and mondo Tenderloin steaks led to happy food comas, or maybe it was the large wine selection. Our service Dobie loved the squirrel-rich grounds near the Spencer cabin. The upstairs loft is wonderful when one of the party snores tooo loudly below. When we go again, I will take a smoke mask as the property was surrounded by wildfire this year. The smoke varies day, so a call a few days ahead yields an honest opinion, and you can bump your reservation up to a year out. We did this for medical reasons and it was honored with no hesitation. It's still a five-star place to dine and snooze. read more

The ABSOLUTE best place we ate on our roadtrip through Oregon! The service was superb. Our waiter was Cody and he knew what we needed before we even asked for it. Not to mention... he loved on our pup. The garden, beautiful flowers, sitting by the river and great food made for a perfect experience. If it wasn't for our tight schedule we would have come back for dinner! I highly recommend if you are in the area you make this a priority. read more

This was my first stay at the Steamboat Inn. After a long drive with the Porsche Club arriving at the Steamboat Inn felt like an extraordinary experience. The surrounding forests, the raging Umpqua River sounding right off of the balcony right off my cabin was a tranquil melody that put me into a state of reverie. The grounds surrounding the Steamboat Inn have been meticulously maintained and are so inviting to walk through. To cap things off, the chef at the Steamboat Inn provided us with a sumptuous meal that had each one of the Club members commenting how wonderful the food tasted. I had the steel head salmon and it was easily the BEST salmon dinner that I have ever tasted. I highly recommend the Steamboat inn for its ambiance, comfortable lodging , and fine food. I will return. read more

We stayed here for several days and I would give the location and cabins a 5 star review and the food a 1 star review. The setting is beautiful and the river front cabin perfect. We ate dinner there twice and breakfast there twice. The ribs and steak were overcooked the first dinner and the pasta was lacking flavor and cold the second dinner. The scramble we had for breakfast was good, but the Benedict was overcooked to the point the eggs were hard boiled. We tried the house bread as a recommendation and it was practically not edible. We also had pickled veggies with an appetizer that were not even edible. The menu is very small so I was expecting better food and it was over priced for what it was. The service was mediocre- not bad, but not good either. Nope I was at your establishment less than two weeks ago. I may not have described the dishes as you have them listed on the menu but that's what we had. The pickled veggies were on the charcuterie board and I believe it was called truffle ravioli as far as the pasta goes. There was a steak option and the spare ribs were the special. Check your menu from June 17th-19th... read more

Sent several emails/ NO RESPONSE also read if there are any FIRES in area and you have to EVACUATE, they will NOT REFUND you.

This was our 3rd time back we love it so much! We are charmed by the peaceful location, the gorgeous views of the river,and the really comfy beds and cozy gas fire place. The staff were beyond helpful and super sweet. So what would I really rave about beyond all that? The FOOD! It was eye rolling, mouth watering, scrap every last bite off your plate kind of delicious. And I am a light eater, but not at Steamboat Inn! What is our draw to the area. The waterfalls of course! Stunning beauty all along North Umpqua. We saw 8 waterfalls in 3 days all of which were show stoppers! Not convinced yet? Good more vacancy for us and our friends. read more

Great place to stay, our Maple Cabin was very quiet and secluded from all the rest. The Inn makes an exceptional place to stay for a couple of nights to hike and view all of the waterfalls along the North Umpqua River, especially in the Fall. Food and service great, I highly recommend a night or two at the Inn. read more

When: Sun. May 30th, 1:00 pm, Party of 2 Adults Wonderful stop, along Hwy 138 on your way to/from Roseburg or Diamond Lake or Crater Lake National Park...It's about the halfway point, give or take a few miles, so Steamboat Inn is the perfect rest stop in between. The Service was impeccable and down home "Genuine" Friendly. All the servers kept stopping by to make sure everything was going ok and they did that for all the tables. On this occasion, my wife ordered the Kale Salad with Grilled Chicken and I ordered the Grady Burger (Burger with Fried Egg & Bacon). The Grady Burger was delicious, especially the Steamboat Potatoes, that accompanied the burger. My wife said the Kale Salad was tasty and adding Grilled Chicken to the salad made the dish satisfying. We definitely recommend the Steamboat Inn for a rest stop and refueling your stomach for lunch or dinner...please check their website for current restaurant hours. read more

We stopped on our way sightseeing the numerous waterfalls on 138. I read that this place was expensive and wondered if it was more then I wanted to pay but we believe it was reasonable for lunch. We sat outside listening to the soothing sounds of the river. We did not encounter any bugs while enjoying our lunch. When we sat down the waitress took our drink order and brought a glass of what we wanted and followed up with a craft of it for us to fill up our glasses as we felt needed. I ordered a burger with the works that included bacon and eggs I forgot the name but it was very good. The potatoes that came with it were awesome. My husband ordered a club sandwich which had quite a bit of meat. It too came with potatoes. Yum. The waitress was on top of her game. I believe her name was Leslie. We recommend this place to have an enjoyable lunch. read more

Adorable place, great view! Try the French dip. I don't even like French dips and it was delicious. Oh and don't miss out on the pie, it's perfection. So glad we stopped! They were incredibly helpful too. We lost our internet connection and I didn't have the map downloaded to the next waterfall. They gave us a waterfall map and now I have more waterfalls to add to the list! Would love to come stay here and chase waterfalls for a few days. Check out the library, it is so cozy! read more

The setting, just above the North Umpqua River is beautiful. Sitting on the deck hearing the river while amongst the tree was beautiful and relaxing. The garden around the inn were beautiful. The food was great! The staff were very friendly and helpful, especially when talking about all of the trails and waterfalls in the area. Overall, the stay was wonderful, although the Wi-Fi was sketchy in our cabin. The Wi-Fi is easily accessible in any of the main lodge buildings, and the are landline phone in the cabins. read more

We stayed at the Inn for the last two years in a row, during a yearly family gathering event in the area. Every little detail from the toffee to the coffee to the decor. We rented both a suite, and then a cabin, because we couldn't get three nights at a cabin. Was a busy weekend. Both the suite and the cabin were exactly what I would hope for. The family that runs the Inn are very charming, and the restaurant is excellent! Would highly recommend checking-in at the restaurant, even if you're not staying at the inn. read more

This review is for the Cafe: The best dessert in a long time... a little bunt cake with brown sugar and butter topping! Doesn't sound like much but two of us ordered it and LOVED it!

What more could you ask for? Well I guess they could be here in Corvallis, but then it wouldn't be right next to the Umpqua river. 08/13/2022. Gorgeous scenery, the sounds of the rushing river, great service, and food so good that it reminded me of my favorite restaurant ever (The Gables in Corvallis, which is now history). I give the two a tie. We (two of us) ordered their version of chicken noodle soup and a BLT plate, and shared. It wasn't an official meal at 2 PM but we wanted to taste something there. I'll get this out of the way: the cashier seemed like she was in a bad mood--but that was the only thing that wasn't really great, so read on. I have had good chicken noodle soup before, but this was fantastic. There was a flavor in with the cream and chicken that I couldn't quite place but it was really good. A recipe would be really appreciated :) The bowtie pasta in it was al dente and not mushy. I'm so used to mushy that I almost expect it. This even had great pasta in it. The BLT reminded me that high quality bacon really does make a difference. Mmmm. And there's plenty of it. Their pan-fried potatoes: best potatoes I've had in years. Wow! They really know what they're doing. They were yukon gold with some seasoning and fried 'til they had a lot of crispy parts. I could actually make a meal out of them, heh. It's a long drive from here. Next time we're in the area we will spend the 120 bucks or whatever for a full dinner for two with drinks and dessert, because I think it will be worth it. Maybe the cashier will give me a smile. read more

Really good food, the dinner menu is very short and expensive and they will only take your order during the exact hours of that meal yet we found it to be worth it. The beef and the fish were delicious along with the accompanying veggies and starches. It's a really nice place to stay and spend some time in the area and both the regular river access and the one for the houses across the river and really nice. There is a lot to do in this area and no other comfortable accommodations that we have found so would stay here again if we return for more adventures. read more

I can't say enough good things about Steamboat Inn. We stayed one night during an Oregon road trip. Our dinners, truffle ravioli and steak with vegetables, were presented beautifully and were delicious. The salad dressing was so good that my traveling companion had to get more bread to sop it all up. Our cabin was immaculately clean and comfortable. We had a door that opened onto a shared deck that is right on the river. Fell asleep to the sound of the river. Breakfast was another great meal and their lattes are incredible. We had to get a couple for the road when we were ready to leave. Service was impeccable for both meals. I would suggest this place for anyone traveling through. One of the highlights of our road trip. read more

This was then third year I have I stayed at Steamboat Inn. I keep coming back because it is so relaxing, the staff are wonderful, food is great and the rooms are the best!

I will be back again next year! My staff ask me why I spend my vacation at the same place each year and I just say, if you had ever been there you would understand why! read more
