“It was my first time to Willamette Valley. This “wine country guesthouse” was close to town (Newberg) but in a beautiful private setting. I hope to be back to Willamette and if so, I hope to be staying here again. Thanks, Becca.”
“This house is literally smack dab in the middle of wine country. The location was perfect and the grounds peaceful and amazing. We stayed over labor day weekend, so the wine tasting room was closed Sunday and Monday, which was nice because it made it even more private for our group. (we arrived just in time Saturday to try the wines, though). You are literally surrounded by nature and fresh air. The house comes stocked with everything you need. We were happy to see a grill so we picked up some steak and corn to throw on the grill to go with our wine. Weather was perfect and we spent most of our time outside on the numerous decks/porches that this house has to offer. The house had plenty of space for our party of 5. My contact with Becca was fantastic, she was very responsive and even had suggestions for various wineries in the area. Baranna (at the tasting room) was friendly, and really was knowledgeable about the wines. We even got to meet one of the horses owners, Heather, who works at another nearby winery. Everyone we met on property - friendly and helpful. The house has alot of character, and reminded me of my family home back in Missouri. Its an older home, but has everything you need - even an indoor hot tub! Plenty of space to spread out and relax. If you stay here, I recommend pouring yourself a nice big glass of Pinot Noir and wandering around the grounds - go see the horses, the vineyard and the trails. Take the time to soak in the quiet beauty of this place. Oh, and the beds . . so comfortable! I never am able to sleep well on any other bed but my own (we have a waterbed) but I can attest, the king sized bed in the upper master bedroom was super comfortable. I slept as well as I did at home. The other members of our party agreed that the beds were surprisingly comfortable. All in all, I would recommend this house. When we go back (and we will be back), I’ll be staying here again.”
“5 of us went up to Willamette to catch up on 5 years since we last got together. It served the purpose well - we sat around and talked and had wine. The grounds are beautiful. They are far out there, so there is no walking into town or to restaurants (although you can walk across the driveway to the tasting room where Becca does a fantastic job of explaining the wines and food pairings to you and shares the history of the farm and the area). It is a little outdated (think 70s, brown paneling), but there is no shortage of space and you can always sit outside in the beautiful grounds.”
