Breakfast was amazing and they grow some of the ingredients right there on the property. The only bad thing about going is having to leave. BTW, the front porch with a cup of coffee in one of the rockers is life changing! Check them out.

One word: heavenly…read more We recently got to enjoy a few days in Oregon Wine Country before a wedding in Portland, and it was the best experience I could have imagined. We were lucky enough to stay for two nights at The DreamGiver's Inn, and I was so regretful for not making the trip a little longer. This place is truly a dream. The drive from Portland wasn't bad at all (under an hour!) and was really quite beautiful as we made our way. While driving the winding roads filled with fall colors, we spotted the Inn, thanks to its charming shade of red. We checked in around 4pm, and Grace was there to greet us and help us to our room. She was an incredibly welcoming host, and made the experience even more special. We stayed in the "Grace" room, and it was absolutely gorgeous and so relaxing. The room had a huge window seat, and the first couple of hours we were there, we sat there watching the rain and relaxing. Grace had all the makings for hot tea downstairs, which was a perfect match for the moment. We had so many plans that we canceled just so we could sit on that damn window seat and enjoy the view! Mornings at The DreamGivers Inn are the stuff dreams are made of. We usually wandered downstairs around 8:30pm to get some coffee and enjoy one of Grace's baked goods... she made the most amazing banana bread, lemon blueberry scones, and the list goes on. It's a perfect time to wake up slowly and soak in the views of rolling hills, vineyards, and trees. She had breakfast out every morning at 9am, and holy cow, was it amazing. We got to enjoy yogurt parfaits (made with the best local ingredients), egg scrambles, vegetables from the garden, and homemade jams. Can you see why we never wanted to leave? While some would shy away from going to Oregon during the rainy season, the weather ended up being a perfect match for the cozy atmosphere this beautiful sanctuary provided. I cannot recommend this spot enough! Thank you for a couple incredibly relaxing and peaceful days.

Kudos to Kim for making our weekend absolutely perfect…read more The house is located in such a beautiful setting, surrounded by vineyards, trees and more nature than you can possibly ask for. Our very active dog was in love with every inch of her garden/yard and all the room it afforded to run around in. The spotlessly clean loft was waaayyyy bigger than the photos do it justice. No detail was overlooked, from the abundance of toiletries, fully-stocked kitchen and drawers, board games, and the assortment of snacks for day trips. Owner Kim made sure we had a flash light for late night returns, left water bowl and bags out for our little guy, and even sent texts while we visited to make sure everything lived up to our expectations. You can really tell Kim cares to make sure her guests have an enjoyable time. One of the most thoughtful and memorable highlights is Kim's freshly baked muffins she had ready for us the first day. Something she is no doubt famous for already! I would highly recommend a stay in Kim and Paul's loft. We will definitely be staying with them again in the future and look forward to another lovely visit to the Aurora home Kim has made so ideal for her guests!

The store is at a busy intersection but there were plenty of parking by the entrance and more parking at the school across the street. For this festival, there were vendors selling flats of blueberries and Marionberries, handmade goods, and we got some delicious Marionberry whoopie pies from the Amish tent. The place was popping with live music, a bounce house and lawn games. The inside ordering was streamlined with one way entrance and one way exit. The back outdoor area was such a fun space with plenty of seating and a bountiful vegetable and flower garden. All the way in the back they had a patio with a fireplace where the bounce house was - very family friendly! You order the counter and take a number and they bring your food to you. It was a little chaotic for the servers to find people outside since it was very busy but everyone was so attentive and working so hard. We were here for the special Marionberry menu and they had a lot to offer. The highlights were for sure the Marionberry shake (omg so creamy!!) Marionberry lemonade, and the moist and buttery Marionberry scone. My husband enjoyed his brisket sandwich but I thought the berry chicken skewer didn't quite work together...but the berry salad dressing was delicious. Highly recommend coming to check this place out and enjoy a summer morning/afternoon sitting outside with homemade goodness!

I contacted the owners of Rushing River from my home in Georgia when I saw their listing on a…read morerental site. My young adult children were hiking the PCT and one had blisters and needed to stop until my husband and I arrived 48 hours later, but with closed roads due to fire rebuilding and no Ubers or Lyfts in service in this remote area with no cell service, I asked Teresa if they were able to provide transportation if I rented a room for my youngest. Despite being a complete stranger, Teresa and Michael made calls to the nearby park rangers to determine how to access my son as if I were a member of their family, even though my children's trailhead was at Olallie Lake almost two hours away. As it turned out, the older siblings stayed and camped with my youngest due instead due to a snow storm which preventing hiking further south as they had planned, but my family was so appreciative that this couple was willing to go out of their way to help, so we made it a point to travel to Rushing River Retreat to meet these wonderful humans. Our family of five adults stayed for two nights in three rooms: my husband and I stayed in the queen room with the balcony inside the home, my boys shared one exterior queen room and my daughter had a second exterior queen room (these exterior rooms are privately accessed outside and they share an exterior and/or interior bathroom available to all of the guests who stay in exterior rooms.) Teresa and Michael open their home up to their guests, so we sat on the couch and chairs in the family room next to the kitchen and enjoyed the view through the picture window of the beautiful rushing river. My sons went swimming and my husband enjoyed fishing. It was lovely after our travels to relax in the hot tub. We are used to renting private spaces through Airbnb when the five of us travel together, but the best thing about this stay was sharing the common areas and getting to know Teresa and Michael. As so many other guests have commented on multiple review sites, this couple welcomes you into their home and shares their lives with you very generously. My young adult children are at the point in their lives where they're figuring out what they want to do for a vocation, so they were very interested in hearing about the varied experiences enjoyed by these gifted and creative entrepreneurs. We spent two weeks in Oregon, and much of our trip had to be reworked due to the snowstorm that changed the hiking plans, and Teresa and Michael gave us wonderful recommendations that guided our entire trip. We even checked in with them after we left the property, and they continued to guide us as we explored their home state. We enjoyed two delicious breakfasts during our stay, and Teresa even shared some of her leftover dinner with my oldest son who was still hungry when the dinner we prepared for the family left him feeling hungry for more! This was a wonderful place to relax, and there are plenty of places on the property to enjoy privately, as one couple did during our stay who we only saw when they filled their plates at breakfast. Then there were others, including one solo traveler who used one of the glamping spaces, who joined us inside at meal time and played board games with us. Whether you want to enjoy a relaxing private space or connect with a friendly and engaging couple, Rushing River is a wonderful place to retreat, relax and restore. It is definitely more than a place to lay your head; Teresa and Michael create an environment that restores your soul.

Lovely! Delightful!…read more Charming Rooms! Welcoming Hosts! Gorgeous Grounds! I could go on and on about this sweet B&B that is in Milwaukie (just Southeast of Portland). Totally has spoiled us for future B&Bs. Terry and Al are amazing! My mom and I were lucky enough to have the whole place to ourselves for 2 whole days! So, we had Terry and Al's undivided attention. We visited with them in the mornings which made the experience so much more personal and inviting. They have a sign on the door that says something like... Enter as Guest, Leave as Friends. So True! Now... this B&B isn't hard to find but you could easily drive right by it in the dark because the house itself sits up on a little hill with several acres of around it. It's nestled into what would seem its own little piece of heaven surrounded by big trees, lush lawns and beautiful landscape complete with a little bridge. (I think I have pictures... I'll dig them up and post them too.) The house has several entrances (exits), but go ahead and enter at any one of them. The main one is at the front of the house which you can drive to... just follow the little road to the right as you go up the hill. (We didn't.... I saw the parking lot up on the left and just parked.) But you can drive to the front, unload and then drive around to the parking area. Anyways... Terry greeted us and showed us around the house. The house is HUGE! So many rooms and they've done a great job decorating it! Antiques mixed in with comfy sofas and chairs. It's a 3 story house... the main floor has the kitchen, porch, parlor and dining room (as well as Terry and Al's living quarters).... the upper floor has the bedrooms... I think I counted 4.... the bottom floor has the Theater... Yes... a Theater with a gi-normous screen and lots of movies to pick from. They even have a popcorn maker down there. But if you want to do it the quick and easy way... they also have microwave popcorn. The Theater has lounger chairs and throw blankets to get all comfy in as you watch your movies. (Mom and I were bummed that we were so busy and so tired each night that we didn't get to have a movie night. Next time...) The guest room floor had a mini bar area that had a coffee maker and tea available all day long. As well as a mini fridge stocked with water and sodas. So nice to have this! Plus they had wine glasses and a wine opener in case you brought your own and wanted to enjoy a glass out on the porch. Oh... the Porch! This is where Mom and I would enjoy our morning cup of Joe. It was so peaceful and relaxing to slowly wake up, sit on the porch and listen to the birds while sipping coffee and reading our books. So Relaxing! (Note... the house sits up off the street so there isn't any street noise and it's surrounded by a wooded area so it feels like you're "getting back to nature".) And then there was Breakfast... Terry really outdoes herself. You have a starter like fruit or parfait and then you have the main course... possibly mini german pancakes or an egg dish. All of it was D-LISH! And the presentation! She really knows how to plate a lovely breakfast. She took breakfast to another level in my book. (BTW... I love breakfast, so I was taking mental notes on how I should present and prepare my own special breakfasts at home.) The Bed.... the comfiest bed I've ever slept in. Even more comfortable than my own at home. The sheets were so soft! I wanted to stay in bed all day. But alas... there were sights to see, family to visit... But I did take a picture of the tag on the sheets so I can try to find the same brand and type at home. I can go on and on... but I won't. If you want to know something specific or more, message me. If... no, no... WHEN we are back in Milwaukie.. we will be staying here again. Love this place. :)

We were scoping out the area to buy our first home and visit my husband's best friend. I decided to treat us to a bed and breakfast. After looking for a couple hours online, I found the Century House. Jean was/is so sweet and kind, I am so happy to have gotten the opportunity to support the business. Jean was able to recommend a realtor to us. She is very knowledgeable about the Salem area and makes the best food. We got FRESH bing cherries and other fruits. As a resident of Hawaii, I so miss having fresh fruit. Our room was beautiful, ample space for 3 people. It felt like home. It was great. The breakfast was to die for. First morning was a parfait, sausages, and blueberry pancakes. Wow. Wow. Wow. To which I totally forgot to tell her that I don't eat red meat/pork. So the next morning she made salmon omelettes with cream cheese and a fruit crisp. I mentioned that a diner in Monmouth had the best crisps but they were out so we weren't able to get it. So she took it and decided to make one (totally warmed my heart). Both breakfasts were amazing. She sat with us both mornings and chatted, she's such a lovely person. When we move next June. I fully plan on staying at the Century House for a couple of nights again. Thanks Jean!

The reservation and check-in process was totally smooth. Jerry showed us the room and gave us the key to use to enter our room and the building later. After that he gave us plenty of dinner recommendations where we had a nice outing. The room itself was very modern and nice. The bed was very comfortable with all kinds of sheets and pillows that allowed my wife and me to pick one that was just right for each of us. The room also had plenty of space for all our stuff. The temperature was just right and was able to get more than warm enough with the fireplace and two forced air heaters (one for the bedroom and one for the bathroom). The bathroom was also very nice too. It had a large shower, two sinks and all the fixings a hotel room has. We also noticed some bathrobes, but didn't end up trying those on. In the morning, we came up to the dining area for breakfast and had an amazing breakfast made by Jerry. The amount of food was by no means too small and came with local coffee and orange juice. There was even bread that came from a local bakery. This breakfast was one of the best I've had anywhere. We also enjoyed having conversations with Jerry about his passion for this B&B and other topics too. The location of this place is great for all kinds of activities. There are wineries, a number of nice restaurants in Newberg and all these random agricultural-themed attractions nearby. We stopped by a barn store and got a pie on the way home! It's also fairly close to Portland and family we stay with when we visit. All in all, we left this place with great memories and the pleasure of having been part of someone's lifelong passion of hospitality. We're writing this review to recommend this place to others and will definitely be telling anyone visiting the area to consider staying here.
