The Enchanted Forest has cast its spell on me time and time again - and even after many visits, I still find myself charmed. While the park may be showing a bit of wear these days, the whimsical magic is alive and well, especially through the eyes of a young child. Wander along shaded woodland paths that twist and turn through nursery rhyme vignettes, fairy tale hideaways, and playful surprises. Whether you're sliding down the tongue of a wicked witch or teetering inside the Crooked Man's house, it's impossible not to feel your inner child emerge for a little fun. The haunted house remains a favorite of mine-though parents beware: it delivers genuine chills that might be too intense for the tiniest adventurers. Another highlight is the rustic little western town, where I enjoyed a warm, fresh churro that hit the spot. There are a couple of small eateries scattered about offering quick, simple bites perfect for refueling mid-adventure. Rides (albeit a bit on the spendy side) range from gentle to thrilling. Ice Mountain and the Big Timber log ride will delight older kids and adults alike, while a dedicated children's section keeps the younger ones happily engaged. We visited on the first open Monday of the season and were pleasantly surprised by the lack of crowds, giving us a relaxed two-hour window to explore every nook and cranny of the park. If you're craving a nostalgic day filled with imagination, quirky charm, and woodland whimsy, the Enchanted Forest delivers. Go ahead-get ENCHANTED. You won't regret it. I wish I had taken more photos, but I was too engrossed to remember!

Took my grandson who's 12 - will be 13 in October. He had, we had...a blast! My 81 year old mother kept up with us and rode ALL the rides! Love that its right in the middle of the forest. Beautiful. Oh and the food and souvenirs are very reasonable!

Just as much fun as you remembered from when you were a kid. We went the last Saturday it was open in November. Even though lines were long and the park was busy, we were able to do everything we wanted to do. Panning for gold, the storybook trails, and the attention to detail remain the best parts of the park experience. Take your kids for a full day; you won't regret it!

I’ve lived in Oregon my whole life and Enchanted Forest is less than an hour away from me, but this was my very first time walking through the park. There is lots of walking and fun stories and fairytales to walk through. My son was sleeping before we left the parking lot. The park itself is slightly outdated but it has a rustic feel to it. It reminds me of our own little Disneyland and I love every bit of that as well! The food was delicious and the price of food was so reasonable! This place is fun for all ages.

Prices are still great for what you get out of it. The jack and the beanstalk performance in the theater was so sweet, they even selected the girl i was babysitting to go down and participate in it, and she loved it so much. She talked about it all day afterward. Now she did NOT love the log ride 😂 but she was proud of herself for doing it. Loved driving the boats in the old western town, just had such a good time. I will be bringing my kids here just like my parents did.

Absolutely strange place to be, but I love it! It’s mostly little takes on classic fantasy tales, and even though it’s pretty creepy, there is a lot to see. I highly recommend taking a visit here with the mindset to enjoy it ironically, but there are many aspects, like the western town, which I genuinely like to chill around. The food is also very good and reasonably priced for a theme park. If there’s one thing I have to truly critique, it’s access to water. Throughout my entire visit, not once did I encounter a water fountain in the park. The only way to drink water here is if you bring your own water bottle or pay for a $3 water bottle. I haven’t tried asking for a free water cup, but I highly recommend trying for yourself. Overall, this place is a great one to visit if you’re ever in the area. The entrance pricing is reasonable and ride ticket prices are alright. I highly recommend experiencing the bobsled coaster, log flume, haunted house, and Challenge of Mondor shooting dark ride.

The history of this Man and his family, what they have built and continue to run is unbelievably unique and fantastic! Kids and Adults alike..the remote boats..the hidden cave that brings out from underground, to the exceptionally priced food options! The water show the musical.performers..the free yes FREE THINGS to enjoy and look at and stroll along!! Ive been coming here since early 70's brought my kids and now my Grandkids!!

I come here often and have been a part of the ownership club for years. Nowhere have I found a more perfect alignment of price, enticing food, entrancing views, and friendly company. I have met a string of people that work here, most recently Alex, and can say I'm constantly impressed by the way they make us comfortable and interested. I could not give a better recommendation for quality dining than here.

Great location with beautiful views. Baby friendly. Great food pairing options and wine options. The gift shop is great, there are so many thing yo get from chocolate to wine candles to apparel to wine drinking essentials. The inside of the main building is pretty, there is a piano for music, bar fire pit, and plenty of seating up/downstairs. The patio is really nice with umbrellas at each table and pretty landscaping, lots of greenery and flowers. It was very peaceful and enjoyable. Recommend coming here, I usually go to the tasting rooms in Vancouver and Clackamas. Super glad I made the drive. Next stop Domaine Willamette!

Did a private tour and tasting with Josh Gil. He was AMAZING!! He was sooooo knowledgeable, personable, kind, and patient. He showed us all working parts of the winery and it was during harvest season. The story of how the winery came to be with Mr. Burneau and his dad being trailblazers for not only winery owners but for entrepreneurs and small business owners in Oregon was simply amazing! The hustle that Mr. Burneau showed was amazing. Going door to door and finding his own investors was so inspiring. Josh was so knowledgeable about all of this. This was such a treat to get to know and learn about from Josh. Go and take the tour from Josh and then book a table at the dining area after. Oh, and join the wine club and take home some bottles too 😁😁

What an unbelievable experience. We went to the stomp the grapes event. Such a great atmosphere and fun event. And it helps that the wine tastings were phenomenal. Bought some bottles to take home. The staff were fantastic. A big shout out to Josh Gil one of the ambassadors. His tour and information was exceptional. Outside being a Lions fan, he was great. Def coming to visit again soon and enjoy more wine.

This place is amazing with gorgeous views. We had the best tour guide, Quinn, who made the experience even better by taking us down into the grapes and personalizing our tour to our family’s needs (taste preferences and gluten free needs). Thank you!

Our party of four, coming from Eugene and Portland, met halfway at WVV for a tour yesterday. It turned out to be a wet and windy day but Natalie O’Brien, our Winery Ambassador, created a most sunny atmosphere for our tour. She is an absolute gem! We loved hanging out with her and learning about the history and craft of winemaking at Willamette Valley Vineyards. We were all impressed with the Natalie’s professionalism, knowledge, warmth and humor… and yes, generous pours. Salud!

We were there an hour before the last call so we felt rushed. We were here from Denver with our daughter for her birthday. We did not know they closed so early. So check before you go. The wine was pretty good. We got several flights and several bottles. We would have loved to have spent more time and money. Maybe on our next "flight".

Beautiful place! I like the hiking trails and lodge and nature gift shop. There’s a lot of waterfalls to see and lots miles of hiking available. Beautiful year-round. I like the winter best for the ice blast look from the waterfalls. Fall is wonderful as well.

This is a magnificent state park. With a variety of trails and plenty to see, this is a destination for the entire family. Whether it’s rainy or sunny the trails are perfect for an outing of any length. They are bathrooms in the park is clean and well-maintained. Parking can be a little tough so be patient.

beautiful and not a super rigerous trail, although it does go on for quite a while. So many trails to go down and a very cute cafe at the start was nice. Definitely plan to come again with some friends!

Silver Falls State Park is an absolute treasure for anyone who loves the outdoors. 🌲✨ The hiking trails are beautifully maintained and filled with jaw-dropping scenery at every turn. The famous Trail of Ten Falls lives up to its name — each waterfall is uniquely stunning, from the thundering South Falls to the peaceful smaller cascades tucked deep in the forest. What makes it extra special is that you can actually walk behind several of the waterfalls, which gives the whole hike a magical, immersive feel. The mist, the lush green moss, and the sound of rushing water make it feel like you’ve stepped into another world. Whether you’re an avid hiker or just looking for a peaceful nature escape, Silver Falls is unforgettable. Bring a camera, good shoes, bear spray and plenty of time — you’ll want to soak in every moment.

An absolute gem that needs to be reserved until the end of time. We went in late October to see the colors and it was amazing. Wind storm was coming in and they were promptly working to clear the roads. The rain and wind gave us the chance to have south falls to ourselves and we captured some amazing images. Truly breathtaking scenery. Only my second visit and there is never enough time. South falls is definitely the prime waterfall experience any traveler could be seeking.

Beautiful, well maintained trails. Too many people with dogs where they shouldn't be but saw no animal waste anywhere, it was grand. We did the full 9 mile loop today and absolutely loved it. Will probably do it again on a weekday so it's not so busy next time, but absolutely worth the visit!

The Trail of Ten Falls is without a doubt one of the highlights of Silver Falls State Park and a must-do hike for anyone visiting. The trail offers a series of stunning waterfalls, each with its own charm, and provides an immersive experience of Oregon’s natural beauty. Trail Options: • Starting from the South Falls Day Use area, you can do a shorter loop beginning at Upper South Falls and finishing via the Rim Trail. This route takes around 2 hours 15 minutes and is a very enjoyable hike with plenty to see. • If you’d like to experience all 10 waterfalls, including the North Falls, plan for at least 3.5 hours or more depending on your pace and time spent at each viewpoint. Alternatively, if you’re short on time, you can also drive closer to North Falls for a shorter walk to enjoy it. Highlights: The most spectacular sections are definitely Upper South Falls and Lower South Falls. These waterfalls are both incredibly picturesque, with trails that even allow you to walk behind them — a unique and memorable experience. If your schedule is tight, I’d recommend prioritizing Upper South Falls, as it’s the most impressive of them all. Trail Experience: The hike itself is easy to moderate and very well maintained. It’s suitable for families and even young children, with plenty of resting spots along the way. The scenery is lush, green, and peaceful, making it just as enjoyable as the waterfalls themselves. Overall: This trail combines accessibility with breathtaking views, making it one of the best hikes in the state. Whether you do the shorter loop or the full 10 falls, you won’t be disappointed. A highly recommended outdoor experience for all ages!

Good sized river for fishing, kayaking, boating, and nature watching. Best for fishing spring and fall because it fills with algae during summer. Keizer Rapids Park is a great place to start a kayak trip down river and finish up at Spring Valley or Wheatland Ferry.

This waterway is the ultimate symbol of Portland. The entire city is oriented towards the river. While I wouldn't go swimming in the river, if you have access to a boat, it's really the best way to see the city.

Nice view of the river love going fishing there! Calm waters, you should really go!

Divides Portland to west and east side nice spots on bridges for taking photos For more contents follow us on instagram @gemislist

So many nice places to stroll along the river in the Eugene/Springfield area! And great bike paths too. For a good map of the Eugene side, Google for the "Ruth Bascom Riverbank Path System" and for the Springfield side check out the "Middle Fork Path".

Pretty Great. I was once told by my teacher, Mr. Sid, that allegedly witnessed the formation of the Willamette River 35 million years ago with his own eyes, that The Willamette River was created was created as an affect of The Juan de Fuca plate subducting beneath the North American plate. The subduction zone causes many frequent earthquakes and volcanic eruptions which over time happened to create a valley. The watershed that formed in this valley anchored around The Willamette River which moves on to contribute up to 15 percent of the total output of the Columbia river into the Pacific ocean. The alleged two head irradiated fish that call the Willamette River home are fun to catch and release (not fit for consumption) and kayaking on the crystal clear (for the first quarter of a millimeter) water is a relaxing time. While driving your wake boat you can see the many wild tires sunning themselves on the beach on on trees, many of which were probably "free range" tires you let out of your site because you drive a wake boat, and you wake board, because you can't handle an actual challenge, but most importantly, because you hate the river and want to cause more erosion. But when you're driving your nice little fishing boat or your regular good boat you can see many herons, eagles, beavers, dear, and other wildlife because you're not eroding the shore as much and you also are not scaring off all the wildlife with your trashy music taste and loudness. Good watersports include water skiing, inner tubing and pretty much anything else except for that one thing, stated earlier. Floating down the river is also a fun activity as long as you stay near the river banks because sometimes the river can get busy with boat traffic, but most of the time boats are nice and try not to run you over. Large fleets of floating parties consisting of mostly floaties like fun islands and inner tubes with a boat or kayak for mobility, one trash bin, two coolers, and possibly even a floaty with a grill on it are a great way to spend a weekend (some parts of the river are better for these floating parties than others). That's pretty much all that needs to be said about the river, it's cool and great, there is a reason 2/3 of Oregon's population lives around the river, and it's a major part of what makes Oregon, Oregon.

We enjoy boating up river to Buckskin Mary when the water is low. The gravel beds, and the river bed are chock-full of beautiful rocks. We boat North of Harrisburg, and South of Corvallis.

The Albany Carousel is such a great concept and a perfect fit for downtown Albany. The building is beautiful, well-maintained, and the carousel itself is a joy to ride. My kids absolutely love it, and the party rooms are spacious and well laid out for birthdays or other events. That said, my biggest issue — and the reason for the low rating — comes from repeated negative experiences with the carousel volunteers. Many of them are older and, frankly, don’t seem to have much patience or warmth when dealing with young kids. Out of the dozen or so times we’ve visited, we’ve consistently felt unwelcome or even scolded over very minor things that are just part of being around excited little ones. It’s a carousel — naturally it attracts families with small children — so I’d expect more understanding and kindness from those interacting directly with them. On the other hand, the paid staff (especially those managing party room reservations and customer service) have always been polite, helpful, and welcoming. No complaints there at all. I’ll also say the party room rental prices feel steep — $200–$300 for just a couple of hours, especially with very few added perks, feels excessive. We’d absolutely use the space more often if it were more affordable, because our kids love the place. But between the pricing and the attitude of some of the volunteers, it’s hard to fully recommend the experience.

This is a community project to bring people downtown. One of a kind carousel museum with lot of history from a family that brought carousels to America. They teach wood carving and each creature is one of a kind hand carved creation. The people are all volunteers and love what they do with passion. Entryis free and delightful. This is n attra tion not to be missed.

Super fun for kids of all ages! The volunteers really make The experience special! Our grandkids loved it, pro tip: take the tour downstairs!

This is a beautiful, handsome carved, carosel to visit. It features many varieties of animals and a ring grabber. If you sit on the outside. stationary, animals you can grab a few rings as you go by. If you get a brass ring you get a free ride! The music is nice although I was hoping for live carosel music, rather than prerecorded. I thought, with the historic feature of the carosel, they would have a great vintage pipe organ to go with it. The animals are each masterpieces with many detailed carvings on each of them. There is a small ice area offering delicious, hand scooped, ice cream as well as a variety of beverages and fresh popcorn. I was not able to go downstairs im the museum area since we were running short on time and the careers were not carving at the time. The small museum offers a great history on the carosel itself and you can watch as the artists hand carve and paint the amazing ride animals.

The Albany Historic Carousel & Museum is one of the best hidden gems in Oregon. It’s a beautifully restored, hand-carved carousel that kids (and adults!) absolutely love. Every animal on the ride is different—horses, dragons, giraffes, even a baby elephant—and each one is a work of art. The place is very family-friendly and affordable. Entry is free, and you just buy coins to ride. Pro tip: Go on Wednesdays between 3–4pm for Happy Hour—coins are 50% off, so just $1 each! That’s a great deal, especially if you have kids who want to ride again and again. One of the most fun parts? While the carousel spins, riders try to grab a ring from a dispenser. Most are plastic, but if you’re lucky and get the metal ring, you win a free ride! Plus, everyone gets a free ride on the very last ride of the day, which is a sweet touch. There’s also a small museum inside, a window where you can watch volunteers carving new animals, and a gift shop with cute, local souvenirs. Staff and volunteers are super friendly and clearly love what they do. Tips for visiting: • Go on Wednesday 3–4pm for half-price ride coins • Let the kids try to grab the ring—metal ring = free ride! • Stick around for the last ride of the day, it’s free • Great for birthdays, rainy day fun, or out-of-town guests • Check out the carving studio—it’s really cool to see the animals being made This is a fun, wholesome place the whole family will enjoy. Highly recommend for a day trip or stop if you’re anywhere near Albany!

Our second visit to the museum. Visiting the area from California. The little ones love riding the Carousel, choosing a different animal each time. We visited the workshop the first visit but not this time, because of the young ones we had with us. Stopped by the gift shop and had lunch at the snack bar. Definitely a place to check out when I the area.

Loved the carousel! Found the tour very informative. The craftsmanship and detail that went into building the carousel figures was incredible. Strongly recommend visiting.

This University is incredibly unprofessional and points the finger to way too many different departments. I would like to specify that "Student Account Services" is by far the most unprofessional, unclear and difficult department I have dealt with in higher education as ECampus student. The supervisor whom I don't even recall their name was incredibly rude, told me I was incorrect and that my benefit (Guild) was the one incorrect with billing. Impossible to speak to an advisor and the worst UI I've ever dealt with.. causing me to be unable to drop Summer classes for a Fall registration hold and now I have to appeal 3 departments for financial aid, it is unfathomable. While this is rated the 4th best college for online learning! Just get a certification people - there's no shock less and less people want to attend college.

My wife and I came here for lunch—it was quiet with plenty of shade from the trees. Lots of green space to relax. Very enjoyable. I hope to come back soon.

Awesome campus! Old world charm , walkable and even easy parking. Well integrated into the city. Common area buildings were immaculate and well maintained. Everyone we met was relaxed and enjoyed being there.

Beautiful campus and everything within a good range for students to handle their affairs.

Beautiful campus. Amazing people. I would highly recommend for engineering or any other major.

Rec center is awesome. Athletic programs are reasonably priced. Campus is wide open and easy to manage. Student store is nice too

It was a great visit, clean, accommodating, and easy to walk around.

A bird watcher's paradise honestly, and it's huge! A must visit in Oregon if you appreciate birds. I saw tundra swans, wild turkeys, raptor birds, cormorants, a heron, ducks, and more all in one day. There were also spots with viewing scopes to better see the waterfowl.

Wonderful area with plenty of trails, plants, and flowers to see. Also, birds!

Great place for wildlife photography, I especially enjoyed the woodpecker loop trail.

Absolutely stunning views and so much wildlife. I especially enjoyed seeing the egrets and wooly bears. I would definitely classify the paths as more of nature walks instead of hikes, and therefore very easy to navigate with little to no hills. ***If you're visiting the reserve in autumn, be sure to take extra caution and watch your step for uneven ground on the trails that might be covered by leaves.

This place is so cool! I came here to "watch" the eclipse; I caught a glimpse for about 2 seconds! Darn weather. But afterwards, I stayed in the refuge to check it out. I walked the Campell Marsh/Hoffman loop and enjoyed it! The boardwalks are in really good condition. I also visited the little store they've got and it was so cute! The whole area around it was recently renovated and is a great hub (with flush toilets!). Lastly, I did the Woodpecker Loop hike and was glad I did: short, simple, but quite the looker! I look forward to visiting here a lot more in the future.

We came into the refuge from the northeast on the road that Waze directed us to. Finley road. Stopped an got a map, near a pond that I can't remember the name of, but that pond wasn't on the map. The map was kind of confusing. We finally found something that was on the map and at the other end of the refuge, I believe the Southeast side, we were able to see a few areas on the map. Anyway, not a lot of wildlife to see, we saw a snake, some turkey's with babies and wood ducks with babies, a great egret and heard lots of birds but couldn't see them. The boardwalk need some love. Some rails are rotting and some loose boards here and there. Otherwise, it was a nice day trip.

Really cool place! Saw a lot of birds out and about. Also a good place to go herping! They've recently updated a bunch of the boardwalks and trails, so definitely come check it out if you haven't taken the chance yet.

Multiple trails, a few different waterfalls, a few bridges. None of the trails we encountered were marked very well as to which one you’re on and we didn’t see any wooden plaques that explain which directions to go for which falls. There was one sign. I just mean it’s not very informative. We hike often at various places and some trails provide these, some don’t. We didn’t see any “map” to explain where each falls are. We had to Google ahead of time as there is minimal to zero cell service here. In the summer we like to “hike” up the creek once we’ve hiked from the top area down. The falls are beautiful. More robust in early fall through mid spring. The last two summers with heat made the falls much smaller. But still worth experiencing.

I come to McDowell Creek Falls to shoot photography often and it never disappoints. The areas are always clean and the people that High care are always extremely friendly. Not to mention it’s one of the most beautiful places to photograph!!

Such a beautiful place to explore and hike! A wonderful place to take your puppy for a walk too! There are lots of stairs and inclines/declines, so be prepared to work up a little bit of a sweat

This was a pretty sweet trail with beautiful falls and trails. The trail isn't well marked so I ended up a bit confused like most others I ran across. I recommend downloading the offline rout prior to the journey through the woods.

Very pretty area. At least 4 different waterfalls along the trails. Good for exercise uphills and stairs as well as flat. Be careful in the wet season the stairs and bridges are slippery.

Who knew we had such a jewel nearby! We explored the entire place and what I liked about it from a park layout perspective is how accommodating it is for different types of visitors. You can choose your own adventure and distance, but even then, if you miscalculate your abilities, there is always a chance to change the itinerary and come out a winner. The park offers multiple picturesque views of hidden waterfalls along the hike from different angles and perspectives. Whether you are the type of person who likes to feel the waterfall breathing in your face or a different type who likes to absorb the natural beauty from afar and safety of the wooden platforms with railings - you got it. Dog lovers, I have a special note for you: keep your friends on leash and controlled. Many park visitors bring their dogs and if yours is more aggressive than others, keep in mind that there are many narrow passages that will make you regret bringing your pup along. Save yourself trouble if your pup can't handle other dogs. Kids will love this place, the hikes are interesting and have frequent changes and interesting interruptions for them to enjoy. Many picnic tables at the beginning of the trails to enjoy family celebration or a lunch break. There are several areas where you can get wet if desired so and even swim ops if you are the type that can tolerate the cold temperature of the water.

Such a pretty place! One of our favorites hikes we’ve been on because you can choose where to start, and go in different directions. There are also a ton of little paths to take to add time to the hike, get closer to the water, etc. The falls weren’t super strong of course because it’s the end of summer but it was a beautiful place no matter what! I will say the steps can be a bit steep so can be harder for some people. And on some of the paths there are trees fallen in the path that are about mid thigh that could be harder to navigate. So fun tho!!

The museum looks deceptively small from the outside and has amazing displays, artifacts and a great gift shop within. The Moyer House tour is guided and the staff and docent were super friendly and knowledgable. The best thing happening in Brownsville!

Wonderful ladies who work here- they are very knowledgeable about the history of Linn County and the museum is so fun! I love the interactive exhibits like loading an Oregon trail wagon or dressing up like the people from the time! I also really liked their caboose exhibit. I think having the boxcars included in the layout of the museum is clever and unique, and the sweatshirt I got was both affordable and super comfortable!

Great little museum packed full of historical items from the area. Loved the way the diaromas (dentist office, doctors office, dressmaker, beauty salon, blacksmith, etc). And of course information about the filming of "Stand By Me." I will certainly visit again. Thanks for a lovely few hours in Brownsville.

I personally enjoyed the small, old fashion theater set up. We got to pick out our desired VHS to watch from an array of choices. Mouse Hunt was our choice. Lots of history to look at. Free admission, though donations are encouraged to keep them up and running.

The museum is a fantastic place to learn local history for the Mid-Willamette Valley. The volunteers are knowledgeable, dedicated, and kind. The artifacts are fascinating. Take a walk past the Halsey Bank or study a map of the indigenous Calapooia prehistoric mounds. You can even watch Stand By Me in the little theater!

This museum packs a huge punch into a relatively small space. Located in the railroad depot building dating back to the late 19th century, a large portion of the museum is in train cars - including the theater. Dress up in authentic pioneer clothing and take a picture with the actual covered wagon the Drinkard family used to cross the frontier in 1865 - one of only 3 known actual Oregon Trail wagons still in existence. They also have extensive artifacts from the pioneer days - blacksmithing equipment, and replica General store, doctors office, bank, and more. You'll even see hair art! 🫨 You have to see it to believe it! The volunteers are very kind and knowledgeable. Admission is free - they accept donations (and I highly suggest supporting them!) but they will not ask you to donate.

Starzjeepcrew always stops once a year for Stand by me weekend or as tradition self guided tour with friends if we can't make it that weekend. This museum is the most informative in oregon.

Nice quiet stroll through the well kept garden. Lots of different flowers, not just roses. Family atmosphere, little paths leading to more flowers, memorial benches for resting in the shade. Cute park, really enjoyed it.

This may have been my favorite stop when I visited my brother's family in Eugene, Oregon. It was just beautiful and such a lovely, easily accessible spot to wander around outside for an hour or two. I highly recommend visiting if you haven't yet - and if you have - go again!

This is one of the most beautiful rose gardens I've ever been to, and I mean, ever the layout was perfect and so many quality roses to see and read the descriptions and see the trees and the pagodas and it was all very well laid out. The bathroom was disgusting.There was poop on the rim of the toilet and it was very unappealing.There were many bike riders out when I went and so i'm glad it has a good accessibility

When the roses are in full bloom, it's really something else. The varieties are listed in front of the beds they're planted in. Pictures are allowed but it's asked that you stay out of the dirt. Nice flat walking paths with benches. Close proximity to the Willamette River path. There were porta potties on site when we visited for the Symphony in the Park. Plenty of parking.

Amazing flower garden and completely free. Bring the whole family. This is not to be missed. They're even open late till 11:00 p.m. But come during daylight for some phenomenal photos.

It’s absolutely beautiful right now (June) because everything is blooming and smells so good!! This is a real gem of a park for Eugene. We saw people taking graduation photos, and there is a gazebo for weddings and events.

Beautiful park, with 12 miles of trails and ponds along the river. Along the trail are all the planets on display, with insightful information. Just watch out for the bicycle riders.

I am not from this area. I thought this was wonderful! There was so many venders. Plenty of bathrooms. So many friendly people!! And the produce was beautiful. Highly recommend if you live there or if you’re just visiting!

A must go-to experience in Eugene. So many artists in one place and none of it is resell. It's all made by the artisan that is selling. Plus live music and good food. It's also right next to the Farmer's market and the Free Speech Plaza where there is the drum circle and people sell stuff too. So there's lots to do in one place.

We love this event because there are so many exciting booths with truly talented artists and the people-watching is so much fun too. We love the live music and the beautiful fountain as well. Been coming here for years when we are in town.

Eugene Saturday Market is like a farmers market, art fair, and block party had a baby. Great food, cool people, and the best people-watching in town.

It just feels so Eugene. L love it after all of these years

An essential Eugene experience. If you come to Eugene and don't go are you even really visiting? Give your money to local growers and artisans instead of big box stores AND have the pleasure of seeing and smelling everything that the culture here has to offer.

One of the biggest and best markets I’ve been to. Wish I lived locally so I could go there for produce every week! Best looking produce I’ve seen! Lots of goods and goodies from a large variety of vendors. I had the best vegetarian empanada. So yummy! 😋 Love this place!!

So far mystery fees, and hiding what rooms look like till the day you move into a 8x10 brick closet hasnt been an enjoyable experience. The amount of money they spent on campus silverware and player facilities does not translate to dorm room size. They hid the size of the rooms for sure to move-in day. Boo ducks.

This place has been a part of my life from beginning to end. My Dad was Premed. He and my Mom lived in the Married Student Housing on Agate St. Where I lived after I was born into this world. Over the years family and friends, acquaintances, Marlboro Men and Martians have attended this august, wet, center of learnin' and THE ARTS. After having traveled the country and sundry other back roads - Here I Am. Again. I live a block from The Pioneer Cemetery. So, Campus.

This is a phenomenal campus. Taking our daughter to her #1 pick and accepted school 🫨🎉. The orientation was incredibly well done and went smoothly and was incredibly informative.

Beautiful campus, especially in the spring when the rain and the overcast skies make the colors explode with vibrancy. There are so many buildings to explore, but even if you stay outside the whole time, you won’t be disappointed.

The campus is fabulous featuring exciting architecture, green spaces and art. It is being sproued up and readied for a 2022 World Athletic Games. Hayward Field is completed and ready to wow the worlds athletes and Autzen Stadium mega board is complete The Phil and Penny Knight Campus for Accelerating Scientific Impact first phase is completed and phase 2 construction has started Exciting times on the campus.

This School has many wonderful qualities including an amazing football team and a beautiful campus. I implore anyone who is thinking of coming to UO to walk the entire campus and go to some of the amazing close by off campus places to eat and hang out.

Always a great day spending time at the University of Oregon. Autzen pretty much the only venue that needs more major upgrades. Remember to take lot's of extra money, expect any purchases to empty the wallet. Go DUCKS!

One of the BEST track and field facilities in the country. Phenomenal for competing and spectating. It's really easy to find housing nearby. I mean tracktown, who doesn't like it? It's iconic

A true living monument to the greatest sport. A stadium that loves its athletes and its fans. The seats in all the sections were cushioned, not a bad seat in the whole stadium. The screens had incredible colors, and the entire space was so ergonomic.

Beautiful and breathtaking to be here!!! Seats are comfy, plenty of bathrooms, and there are water bottle refill stations. Bring your sun screen, but there are shady areas too.

The free museum was a sensational find! Worth the jockeying of our activities to work into their limited hours. Even the non runners in the family were fascinated by the innovations of the 3 Bills who were legendary coaches, and back stories of athletes we watched at past Olympics. Visitors are not allowed on the track, but a photo booth provided us with laughs and a virtual visual keepsake (although the text to phone option did not work. Only those of us who had the image emailed received it)

One of our favorite places to be. Very affordable tickets for the caliber of experience. Comfortable cushioned seats & not a bad one in the house. Plenty of concessions (with the stadium pricing to match $$$, but that is to be expected). Massive screens, upbeat music & pretty solid announcers. We’ve attended everything from Oregon high school state meets to Worlds back in 2022. The only thing missing is parking. Please give us a parking garage. Please.

Its such an iconic place. So Inspiring to know that so many great athletes have been there. Seeing the grounds was cool.

No doubt, this is the very best track venue in the country. The Prefontaine Classic is world class...with two world records to see this year. A must see place and venue.

As always great experience.. amazing service, great wine, and amazing food.. very good service, knowledgeable server. Calm, quiet, and serene environment. Best view ever. And electric car charging stations are free.

This winery, equipped with excellent infrastructure, operates only on weekdays and does not accept guests on weekends. While it’s a bit inconvenient that you have to provide your credit card information upfront when booking online, it’s still a place worth visiting at least once. Aside from the dining area, there’s virtually no shade, which is a bit disappointing. The interior space is rather ordinary, but once you’re seated at a table overlooking the surrounding scenery, you can feel a sense of perfect tranquility. They only serve light bites to accompany the wine tasting, so I ordered cheese and a few simple dishes. The flavor of the house-made butter and honey was delightful, and the foie gras spread on toast with additional toppings paired beautifully with the wine. Wine tasting costs $35, and other menu items are also quite pricey. Overall, the value for money isn’t great, but it’s a decent spot for a special outing. As for the wine itself, my personal taste found it somewhat flat—lacking a distinctive terroir, depth, or kick. I probably wouldn’t return, but I’d still recommend visiting at least once.

King Estate is truly a gem in Oregon! The views are absolutely breathtaking — overlooking rolling vineyards and fields of lavender, it genuinely makes you feel like royalty. The wine selection is beyond exceptional, with something for every palate, and the food is just as impressive. The fresh butter and honey, sourced straight from their own farm, add such a special, thoughtful touch to the dining experience. It’s also very kid-friendly, and the staff are warm, welcoming, and knowledgeable. A must-visit destination for wine lovers and families alike!

Took my mom there to celebrate her 65th birthday, my 44th birthday, & my 22nd year anniversary with my company. Had an amazing time there back in mid September around harvest time. We caught a couple to do a tour with & were invited to join them after our flight tasting. We enjoyed that as well as the blueberry cheesecake which was by far the very best cheesecake that we had which led my mother to purchasing another to go. It was that good! Hope to be able to return sometime in the future. But want to give a very special thank you to Jodi & Lily for one of the most unforgettable experiences we'll always remember. I wish more of your products made it to San Antonio, Texas.

So excited to try the wine & experience the views & atmosphere we had heard so much about. We were on a family vacation, my husband, daughter, son in law & granddaughter drove up to Kings Estate & unfortunately didn't get to try the wine. We weren't greeted with a Welcome or smile, but told in the entry way to wait for a gentleman who would take us to the patio for tastings. We waited quite a while, the Gentleman came in asked what we wanted, left to go back to patio. After another hefty wait we decided to leave. Wow, rather disappointed when visiting from another state & all we received was scowls & frowns. Went down the road to Sweet Cheeks Winery!....It was phenomenal!

We walked up and attempted to enjoy a wine tasting on vacation. The first time we were greeted was 5 minutes after we arrived. The gentleman did not seem interested in serving us (my 7 year old daughter was with us). After we were looked up and down, he told us his partner would be with us shortly. Another 5-10 minutes and the partner came up, gave us the side eye and asked if we were all together (my parents, husband, daughter and I). He then said he would try to find something outside. He went on to serve and interact with the 2 tables on the patio. Eventually, we decided to just leave. I cant speak to the quality of wine.

I recently had the pleasure of visiting the King Estate Winery for brunch, and I must say it was an extraordinary experience from start to finish. Nestled atop a hill, the winery offers stunning panoramic views that are truly a sight to behold on clear days. The highlight of our visit was undoubtedly the delectable food. The salad was delightful with its inclusion of unusual edible flowers, adding a touch of elegance and visual appeal. The fried potatoes served alongside had a crispy outer layer that gave way to moist insides. The dining environment and tasting room exudes an air of sophistication, with its elegant hardwood and possibly rock floor. The provision of well-stocked hygiene products in the bathroom was a thoughtful touch. The free electric car chargers were a welcome surprise, making it very convenient for those, like us, who drive electric vehicles. In conclusion, my experience at King Estate Winery was unforgettable. From the breathtaking views to the delicious food, and the impeccable cleanliness throughout the establishment, it was evident that this winery goes above and beyond to provide an exceptional experience for its guests.

They were informative, nice and eager to help. They've done a lot of good work.

I wish it was a little bigger the downtown

The wine here speaks for itself 5⭐️, it’s the owners that truly set this place apart. We have tasted at wineries from all over the world and I can honestly say that we’ve never had such a wonderful experience. It was my wife’s birthday and after chatting with them they shared something very special with us that we will truly never forget! Thank you Terry and Sue, we hope to return one day.

Good winery and tasting room on the main street in Elkton. The owner was very friendly and responsive. Sample flight was $15, you sampled 4 wines of your choice, it was enough to split between two people, if you bought 3 bottles the sampler fee is waived, however the fee in June/July/August goes to charity which is admirable. We sampled 4 different red wines during our stay, we sat in the covered outside courtyard, there is also indoor seating available. The Ferris wheel and the Northern Pinot Noir were quite mild and agreeable. Overall we had an excellent experience at Brandborg Winery. They also have beer and cheese, wine, crackers.

An excellent place to stop for great wine and superb service. A beautiful patio to sip wine that is family/dog friendly. Inside the tasting room is large and clean with several varietals. Wine was great for any palette. Service was amazing with friendly conversation and knowledgeable staff. I won't be going through Elkton without stopping from now on.

Stopped in on our drive home and had a quick taste and couldn’t help but grab a few extra bottles to bring home. Lovely staff, delicious wine. Will definitely be back next time we’re in the area!

Excellent wine tasting room near their winery. Pleasant ambiance; exceptionally pleasant service. They serve up many high quality wines (award winning), including several somewhat unique varieties (white Pinot noir was my favorite). $5 tasting fee waived with purchase of 3 bottles. Highly recommend visiting.

Absolutely awesome afternoon! The owners are delightful and full of information. Wines were fabulous. We brought appetizers and enjoyed all the wine and sun. And we took home quite a lot of wine! Thank you for such a wonderful experience!

Tourist here... Just traveling through and wanted to stop to do something fun. This place is lovely. Highly recommend. In addition to wine, they have beer on tap, as well as other beverage options and a small snack selection too. They have a heated, covered outdoor patio where dogs are allowed.

We went here for a Mother’s Day special (closed on Sundays so it was on Saturday) The dish was waffles and chicken and came with one glass of sparkling wine. The waffles were delicious. The chicken a little over cooked. The wine was also delicious. But all told, not a 45 dollar per person meal. The property grounds are absolutely gorgeous. The facility itself? Top notch. Would definitely recommend on your tasting route. For the area, the wine prices are on the higher side. But well worth the visit for the scenery and ambiance.

If you find yourself down in Southern Oregon in the beautiful Umpqua Valley be sure to stop and enjoy an amazing experience at Reustle-Prayer Rock Vineyards. This place is truly one of those rare and wonderful places to enjoy delicious award winning wine, food and stunning views. The wine cave is perfect place to sit and relax while you sip and sample unique wines that provide a delightful experience. The staff is extremely friendly, welcoming, knowledgeable, and professional. They offer a pleasant atmosphere and an unforgettable experience. Reustle-Prayer Rock Vineyards is definitely a must visit vineyard for any occasion.

Beautiful tasting room. Kevin provided great information during our wine tasting in the wine cave. Very informative and knowledgeable about wine. Our favorite was the Tempranillo. Jack gave us a tour of their production facility and was also very knowledgeable about wine making. Wish we could have enjoyed their outdoor seating but it was raining.

We came here as a family on a Friday afternoon. We were immediately astounded by the impeccable facilities- the grounds were unbelievably stunning and well kept. We felt like we were in an Italian villa. We ordered four tastings & food and were astounded by the customer service of the club manager and owner, Gloria. We felt seen and cared for the moment we walked in the door AND the wine was incredible! It was so lovely to sit outside on the sunny day (TONS of seating!) and see so many people enjoying their wine- including young families (HUGE plus!) We became members on the spot and look forward to many years of memories at Reustle!

Stepping into Reustle feels like being transported to another place in time, entirely. The building itself has features unlike anywhere else I've been. Quirky details like the humpty dumpty wine barrel add to its uniqueness. Great wine, served with tasteful pairings. It is a great place for wine touring, especially with Tristyn as a host from Experience Umpqua.

Amazing venue. Range of wine. Great service. Highly affordable bites to eat. Yes. really. The wine cave is absolutely gorgeous (rec to owner-play some Spotify guitar music lightly on the background) Wines range from pretty good to amazing. Tasting comes with accompanying bites and tasting fee dropped with purchase (fee $15 pp, spend $50 pp to waive fee) Such a terrific venue…..go!

Such a beautiful place. And GREAT hospitality! Loved the wines and the food. (They don't post their menu, so be sure to ask!) We stayed two nights in the spacious Carriage House, where you are serenaded by sheep in the evening. We will be back!

Our family had the most unforgettable experience at Wildlife Safari in Winston! Before our visit, the staff was incredibly kind and understanding of our situation, and they went out of their way to support us. We are deeply grateful for their generosity. We came on Friday, August 15, and the emotions we all felt are beyond words. The kids were absolutely thrilled, and our grandmother, who is visiting from Russia, was in complete awe — she had never seen anything like this in her life. We were lucky enough to see cheetah cubs, a giraffe came right up to our car, and the sweetest little deer licked our hands. We all had goosebumps from the excitement! Thank you, Wildlife Safari, for giving our family such a magical and once-in-a-lifetime experience. We will cherish this memory forever!

One of a kind wildlife safari experience. I would recommend places to visit with kids and friends. Interactive place to learn about wildlife and watch a few of the well known species in kind of wild settings. Unfortunately, this place is only accessible via car/personal automobile. Inside you can take a tour bus/vehicle- depends. The tickets were reasonably priced and we opted to purchase the tickets at the entrance counter. Online tickets are also available. For the entirety of the safari, we were inside our car and got to see wild animals like tiger, lions, ostrich, emu, foxes, deers, buffaloes, rhinos, pythons species, cheetah, lemurs and more. There are fun activities to do if you are visiting with kids such as educational sessions with experts, train rides, feeding animals and birds. There were cafes inside the establishment, restrooms were in usable conditions. Since we opted to be in our car for the entirety of the safari, I would say the experience was quite accessible for people of any age group. Staff were nice and friendly. Plenty of parking space was available at the establishment.

This place is spectacular! We ended up spending almost two days here! Well I guess 1 day over all, as we wanted to do the big cat feeding and also meet the cheetah ambassador and take a pic. Both are completely worth it though I enjoyed the tiger feeding a bit more than the cheetah but that was probably because I like tigers more. My wife loved having our picture taken with the cheetah who you could also see as you walk into the front village. We started off with spending the first day driving through the safari. We were worried that it was going to be a bunch of driving and not a lot of seeing the animals. We were not disappointed though (except for the wolves) as most of the animals were out and about even though it was in the afternoon and about 90 degrees out at that time. We drove through all of the different zones and saw many animals in each. We are looking forward to the hyaenas that is hopefully going to be coming soon. We plan on coming back when we are in the area again as it is so much fun to visit the animals. All of the employees were super nice and accommodating, as well as knowledgeable. Great visit and a great place to spend a day with your family!

Went today on a rainy day, almost nobody there which made it like a private park for us. Amazingly beautiful place, great staff and set up. Truly a must see experience. I can't speak for a hot summer day when crowds form, but today was perfect.

For $20+ for adults it’s a decent price to pay to experience this drive through. You not suppose to get out of your car. They do have some animals roaming free while others such as tigers, bears, lions etc remained behind fences. I would recommend this place if your kids and yourself enjoy seeing wildlife . You also don’t need to buy tickets in advance. Yes there is a restroom prior to entering the safari .

10 out of 5 stars! This place was AMAZING. Plenty of space on the drive thru loop to pull over and let others pass or pass others. The animals all had so much space compared to other zoos I’ve visited. Overall so well kept & gift shop/playground/food area nice & clean too.

A Must-Visit Family Adventure at Wildlife Safari in Winston, Oregon! We had an absolutely unforgettable experience at Wildlife Safari during our trip through southern Oregon. This hidden gem offers a unique, up-close encounter with wildlife that you simply can’t get at a traditional zoo. The highlight of our visit was the drive-through safari. The 4.5-mile route took us through rolling hills and open fields where animals roam freely. We saw giraffes, rhinos, zebras, ostriches, elephants, bison, cheetahs, and even lions, all from the comfort of our own car! The animals were active and many came close to the vehicle, which was thrilling for both adults and kids. After the drive, we explored the walk-through section of the park. It’s smaller but well-maintained and perfect for families. We enjoyed seeing reptiles, monkeys, lemurs, and feeding the goats and miniture horses in the petting area. There are shaded areas, clean restrooms, and plenty of informative signs about the animals. Every staff member we met was friendly, helpful, and clearly passionate about animal welfare and education. The facilities were clean, the parking was easy and free. Tips for Visitors: -Check third-party websites for discounted tickets and promotions. -Arrive early to see animals when they’re most active. -Bring snacks and water—there’s a cafe, but food options are limited. -Don't forget your camera or phone with zoom lens!

Visited as part of the Umpqua Wine harvest tour. I wish I had been able to enjoy this winery a little bit better. It was quite busy this day and unfortunately only sampled one wine.

Location was beautiful. Food was great. Service we impressive tableside. Staff was very friendly. Enjoyed a wine flight however I hate to say it was not one of the better flights I've enjoyed at a winery. They all tasted and looked pretty similar. Reservations were suggested online however for our visit on a Tuesdays afternoon it was not needed. I'm sure with their pizzas cooked in the pizza oven they are much busier on Fridays.

Highly recommend reading the fascinating history of how they found this location for growing grapes from Spain!

We have been wanting to try the Roseburg wine region for some time now, and finally got a chance to stop in while on the way to the coast. This winery has a stunning facility with gorgeous views! The staff was friendly, though they struggled with a couple of my questions about their wines. The wines themselves are ok for the most part, with the Tempernillo being their best by far. The wine making philosophy seems centered on re-creating the climate of Spain wine growing regions, which is an interesting approach. I would love to try thier wines 10 years down the road when they have had a chance to refine their winemaking. Definitely worth a visit!

Wine and food was wonderful, but our waitress was less than friendly. We know we were dressed down (it was an unplanned visit), but it was no reason to give unwelcoming service from the girl with dark hair and tattoos. It was forgotten that we ordered a charcuterie, and had she come back, I would have ordered another bottle of wine. The red-headed waitress, however, was much better when we flagged down for service. 3 stars for the good food and wine and the red-headed girl, -2 for the dark-haired girl. I must also mention that we were the only people in the dining area

Stunning venue. Focus on exceptional Spanish wines. Very good service. Tasting fee varies: $15-25 based on reserve level. Pours are good. I recommend getting both levels to compare standard with reserve level (sometimes we preferred standard!) Fees waived with each $50 purchase.

My wife and I did the Vineyard tour with Greg Jones the CEO and had the best time. We learned so much and got treated to beautiful sites and delicious wines. It was incredibly special and can’t thank the Abacela team enough for making it one of the highlights of our vacation to southern Oregon.

This place is great. Huge parking lot which was important because we were towing a car trailer. The hotel staff were very friendly. Very clean everywhere. We had a pet friendly room. The room was spacious and very clean. No animal smells. They provide bowls for the pets! Bed was comfy although on the firmer side. Honestly, the only downside for me was the smell of smoke from the casino. I am highly sensitive to it so it bothered me. We would still stay here again. Very nice place and reasonable price. p.s. I got an espresso martini at The Edge Bar and it was really good!

So I usually go at least twice a month. I used to get free play and free nights. I drive 3 hours because I like the place alot. (I used to.. ). I missed 1 month of going there and they demoted me. I no longer get a free room at casino or free play. I spend alot too. The pool used to be great with the spouts. There gone. The hot tub hasn't worked the last 2 times I went. I used to tell everyone they need to go there. I won't be saying that anymore. The bartenders are amazing and the staff is very friendly. I will go back just to see the bartender sara. Just not as much anymore. There's no incentive to drive 3 hours twice a month anymore.

I don't consider 3 stars to be sub par. I was not blown away by the resort. It doesn't stand out in my head. hence the 3 stars. This is only in reference to the gaming area. Very limited black jack tables and had a significant wait. The dealers were very competent and as engaging as normal. I understand that free drinks is not possible and not expected, but paying $7 for an IPA is what I would pay at an upper end bar. I feel and heard people saying 'At least a little lower prices would seem fair' I understand the laws about over service And agree. The server's are great. Thank you

(See edit below to get the whole story) We absolutely love this resort!! The grounds are immaculate, the service is topnotch (everyone is super professional and goes out of their way to make your stay memorable). Felipe, and all the staff at the front desk, keep things running smoothly, and James is always a delight to meet on the grounds. We couldn't be happier. Five stars and a plus! EDIT 9/26/25 This resort seems to have a problem with its security staff. Not only did they give us wrong information, harass us, and ruin the front door of our trailer at the Casino's dry lot, two men appeared last night at 8pm to kick us out because "The Casino doesn't want you here anymore, because you've threatened with legal action." What does the Casino have to do with the RV Resort? They are separate entities, as the head of the security told us in May (we even asked when we arrived here if it was going to be a problem, answer: No, you can stay here, we're separate, you're not blacklisted here). So do they run money scams here? Tell you it's okay to stay, then kick you out two weeks into a month's stay so they don't have to refund you the money? And why would they even use the small claims case against us? Security ruined our door, the Casino won't respond to emails, and somehow that's our fault too? (Our door costs 1K to fix, the dividends wouldn't cover the effort, so we decided against the suit). Or perhaps this whole thing is about security covering their own deeds as they were the ones who ruined our door and clearly don't want to be held accountable for it. I'm so deeply disappointed at this whole resort at this moment.

My husband, my self & mother in law decided to have a fun night of bingo. Service was good, very helpful. Things were going well for the first hour. Then for some reason the side we were on filled with cigarette smoke. Unfortunately my mother in law loses her voice when ever she gets near any smoke. We had to leave we weren't even 1/2 way through. I understand that we'd played a few games. But we still had several pages left. There was no offer by staff for any reembersment, not even partial.

Stayed here as a half way point on a trip to California. The room was very comfortable besides a noisy mattress cover under the sheets. The giant LED sign in front of the casino is extremely bright and you can see flashing lights from the edges of the curtains if you are facing the front. Definitely request to face the back of the casino if you can. Great art! Friendly service. I hope to go back sometime to try the new tower hotel.

Stayed here on a recent trip from California to Washington State. Rooms are neat, clean and reasonable. The restaurant served excellent food and the waiter staff was fantastic, even making a drink for my sister that was not on the menu. The Casino is smoke free and is very clean and well maintained. The slots were a bit tight, but that is to be expected. I'll definitely stop here again.

We LOVED our half day rafting adventure down the Rogue River with Todd. We felt safe, informed and just had a delightful time in general. One of our kids went in the kayak much of the journey and even though he didn’t have a ton of experience, I felt like Todd gave clear, excellent direction that made me feel safe as a parent and that his safety was the priority and clearly cared that he had a great time too. Todd shared his knowledge and information about the river and the area, as well as just enjoying the company of the group and some quiet time to enjoy the ride. Also, the lunch was delightful - a right-sized buffet with meatloaf, bbq chicken, Mac and cheese, cookies, farm to table salad, fruit, chips and more.

Wow! Our team was Adam, Abby, Mike & Tim. Great crew! Very accommodating, sharing tips & history, and great cooks. I would definitely do this trip again. They made our visit to The Rogue River unforgettable.

We had the BEST day rafting the Rogue-and our guide Dan made it unforgettable! He was fun, energetic, and made sure we always felt safe while finding adventure and beauty around every bend. Dan shared so many interesting facts and stories—things we never would’ve thought to ask about! His knowledge and passion really made the trip special. Highly recommend this experience—and if you can, request Dan!

What an amazing trip down the Rogue River (Wild and Scenic) The guides, Soren, Rip & Maynard were exceptional. I cannot put into words how much they made this trip memorable. The food was outstanding. The help they provided for my blind wife was above and beyond great service.

My wife, teenage son, and I recently did a full day guided trip on the Rogue River. We can't say enough about our experience, which was overwhelmingly positive. Our guide, Todd, was outstanding. Solid training on safety in and out of the boat, while also having lots of fun. Todd's stories about the history, ecology, and other knowledge of the river, is locked in our memories. He was kind and attentive to all of our needs, while also challenging us and teaching essential skills. Our multi course lunch, cooked by Rob, was delicious, beautifully arranged, and plentiful. The time at the lodge was relaxing and scenic. We are now hooked and are hoping to do an overnight trip next summer. Thanks again!

Highly recommend Morrison’s! Staff members were super fun, knowledgeable, and professional. Our guide Dan took great care of us and made sure we had a great time. We felt safe the whole trip. Our experience rafting the Rogue is now a core memory; not to mention the incredible food and hospitality!

I have a group of friends who do hiking trips together every few years, and this year we picked Morrisons Rogue River hike with support from guides on rafts. Booking the trip was relatively straightforward, but Morrisons highly encouraged us to do trip insurance because they don't offer refunds, which should've been the first red flag. Before I go too far, I do want to give a huge shout out to our guides Drew, Adam, and Johnny. They were amazing, and if I were rating just them, this review would be 5++ stars. They were friendly, knowledgeable, helpful, and genuinely cared about us and our hike. The rest of the Morrison's staff...not so much. There was an active wildfire in the area before we started the hike. We talked to Morrison's several times in the days leading up to the trip (before we flew out) and even asked about rebooking the trip for a different time, when the forest in the area wasn't on fire. We were assured that even though they were planning a few modifications to our itinerary (i.e. at least one day of rafting instead of hiking), they were confident that it would be a wonderful trip. Fast forward to the end of day 2 of our trip...and they had to cancel the rest of the 4-day hike due to safety concerns and, ultimately, a mandatory evacuation. To be clear, I'm not upset that we were pulled out of the woods, as that was an obvious safety decision. I'm mad because we specifically asked about rebooking for different dates and were told no. Morrison's got us back to their main lodge the following morning, at which point they considered themselves done with us. There was no refund, no help finding rooms for the night, and the last lodge we were in literally wouldn't even let us use the bathroom in the hour we were waiting for vans to get us back to safety. Morrison's did at least send us all an official email about the trip cancellation so that we could share that with our travel insurance (if we'd purchased it) to try to get a refund, but that was about it. Morrisons also made the guides tell us, rather than having anyone higher up in the company talk to us. From what we can tell, they also didn't do anything to help their guides (e.g. helping them find lodging) once the trip was canceled. I will also add that I'm vegetarian, and although there was a lot of very tasty vegetarian food available, vegetarian protein was extremely scarce. For dinner the two nights we hiked (~9 mi on day 1 and 15 mi on day 2), there was no source of vegetarian protein for me to eat. (The gluten free and dairy free people fared much better.) It would've been so easy to roast a portobello mushroom the way they roasted salmon, or to do some kind of meat substitute when they did ribs (they did have meat substitute at the lunches, and eggs or veggie patties at breakfast). I had brought some protein powder with me, but not enough to make up for dinners without protein. My friends ended up giving me the protein bars they'd brought for themselves to try to make up for the dinners. To Morrison's: please consider all macronutrients (carbs, fat, AND protein) when planning meals for your guests! Overall, I would absolutely go back to the river with any of the guides, but I'll never use Morrisons again, and I recommend that you don't either.

Super experienced outfitter that knows the Rogue forward and back, in and out. Why? We were w 2 veteran-status guides who could do this blindfolded, hands tied, and spun around 20 times, Hunter & Ben. Everything felt in control, they made all the logistics work w/o any need for us to even think, and ensured everyone in the party had shared experiences in the paddle raft, inflatable kayak, and in the water. Both are middle school teachers and you can tell based on their listening and desire to contribute and have their “students” (us) get as much as we wanted out of it. Guides were great. Itinerary. 3 days lodge based Rogue, about 40 miles (Strava’d mileage), w mix of class 2-4 rapids. Lots of mixed speed stuff throughout: rapid, then calm water, then rapid, then calm. We had 2 kids (10, 14) + 1 adult in the raft and had enough horsepower to get us thru. Nights were at lodges. The one at BlackBar was def welcome over a tent, but was hot and pretty basic (I liked it as having a touch of simplicity was welcome). 2nd night was at Paradise and it basically is that, esp after the first place. New fresh wood, clean, bugless, electricity whenever u need, cabin had full private bathroom and 3 beds (2 singles + 1 Queen). Great experience for families. Would def use Orange Torpedo again. Only change we might make for the next adventure is the river, where we may search for higher class, more technically demanding and fewer still-water bits. Or maybe do an inflatable kayak trip - it was so fun and liberating! But the guides were tops, wouldn’t change at all, and their students are lucky to have them.

Just did a 3-day lodge trip! It was so amazing! Stayed at Black Bar Lodge & Paradise Lodge. Both were great and the food was awesome! The guides with OTT are very experienced and a lot of fun! I highly recommend this trip and can’t wait to do it again next year!

Had a great half day trip doing Nugget Falls. Now we can’t wait to do more rafting! Plus it sparked our interest in returning to kayak the Rogue. Highly recommend the tour company. Friendly folks at every stage. Great guide. He made the trip feel easy and there was some crazy water to navigate. Tons of fun.

9 years ago we drove down from Seattle and met up with our Oregon friends at Orange Torpedo and did our 1st rafting trip on the Rogue River. This trip as expected last weekend, did not disappoint. We had an amazing time, great trip with Orange Torpedo. Absolutely loved our guide, Will, very personable and knowledgeable... Couldn't have had a better experience, it just got better !

I have rafted with many different companies around the country, and this is without doubt the best. We did a 6 day row your own with them on the Main Salmon in mid June as we didn’t get a permit. Erik was incredibly accommodating with all the logistics (we rented rafts from them as well), always easy to reach and very helpful with all the questions. Plus the pricing was very affordable. The trip was amazing. Ryan, Tristan and Henry were fantastic. They got us all the best camp sites, showed us all the lines, the best hikes, the secret spots. We couldn’t believe how good the food was: they are masters of the dutch oven, with cinnamon rolls, cherry pie, and chocolate cake, and grilling steaks, fish, and barbecued chicken. The breakfast game is strong: eggs, burritos, french toast, sausages, and hash browns. It was a huge relief not having to do all the cooking and set up and to have their local knowledge to help keep us safe. They were so much fun to be around; we laughed a lot. Whether you are doing a regular or row your own, I highly recommend OTT. I’m sure all their river trips are great although I will always have a soft spot for the Main Salmon. Thanks guys.🙏

What an adventure! We rafted/kayaked the lower Salmon, 3 night/4 days and it was one of my favorite trips I have ever done. I highly recommend OTT. From booking to the very end it was all very well organized. Our guides (Ethan, Tristan, & Noah) were so amazing and so fun! The meals were outstanding and they were so good about telling us all sorts of facts and info about the area as we rode the river. The beauty of this section of the Salmon river can't even be captured in photos. Plus we also saw a lot of wildlife - river otters, golden/bald eagles, and mountain goats. This was our very first time doing something like this and we would definitely do it again through OTT.

Well what can say, but Wow! Our trip was phenomenal but we couldn’t do it without our amazing guides. Becka, Hayden, and JP did an outstanding job from cooking, story telling, and sharing adventures with us. This amazing people were humble and caring. There service was beyond words they all showed amazing care and delight. We will sure be back :) Becka - Caring adventurous leader Hayden- Wild, Joyful, determined JP- Humble, Wisdom, Funny

Wildlife Images does an amazing job of keeping the animals taken care of. The enclosures are clean and you can tell are maintained by staff that care about the animals and the work they do. Our absolute favorite tenant there was Gilbert the 1 year old Grizzly Bear. He was the absolute sweetest bear, and loved to be watched by the humans. We walk away to see the other animals, and then we would come back and say his name and he would come running to say hi. He showed us his toys and how he can climb trees. He played and splashed in his water pool and loved his giant green kong toy. The birds were just as cool to look at and there was the silkiest badger making all kinds of noises at us. Probably telling us to get lost and stop staring at her. Lol. Overall it was a great day, and Wildlife images we will definitely be back!

Wonderful rehabilitation center that makes a positive impact on the area's wildlife 💚 There's tons of information posted around the park, showing their incredible work. If you hang around long enough, you will see the handlers feeding and interacting with the animals. I was lucky to see some of the wolves & caretakers playing chase during feeding time. Go visit the variety of animals & support this place! 💚

We came early, it was quiet the animals were out and curious and really enjoyed watching the bear play in his pond. This place does a great job. Highly recommend!

Amazing place staffed by wonderful workers and volunteers. We were there for the Mother's Day brunch and the food was wonderful and the animal encounters were amazing!

I've lived in the area for nearly 25 years and I can't believe this was my first visit! I've been missing out! This place is SO cool! The staff is very knowledgeable and kind. There's a super cool playground and we got to feed the big tortoises!

Beautiful place. Definitely should visit, though a bit small for the price of admission.

Really cool animals. Nice staff. A little pricey. They have wagons for your children for free :)

The hike up Upper Table Rock is not dangerous but the grade and switchbacks will burn your legs and lungs. The trail is shaded for much of the way, which is nice because it gets warm. Bring water. I enjoyed the plateau the most, for its view farmland and river, plus majestic Mount McLoughlin off in the distance.

Lower Table Rock is a steeper, more strenuous, hike. But it's prettier, tree covered, more hikers, and has a few benches on the way up to the top. I like upper Table Rock too but lower is my preference.

Upper table rock is a shorter hike overall, but in the spring it is absolutely gorgeous as wildflowers and various tree's begin to bloom. It can be trying at times, as it does have a few switchbacks. Lower table rock is both longer and a tad more strenuous. However, the plateau of Lower Table Rock is vast with breathtaking views. You'll want water for both and prepare for a bit of burn (depending on your fitness level).

Mind blowing views and surreal setting near Medford. Definitely worth a stop for the quick hike if you’re passing through the area. Can get a little more crowded on weekends, but once you’re at the top of the plateau there’s plenty of room to find your own way.

Hike was a bit strenuous at the top. Views are awesome. Not a fan of all the dogs.

The trails are great, wide. I don't like snakes but I haven't seen any around whenever I go but they are around. I've seen lots of lizards, chipmunks, bugs, butterflies, and squirrels. The view at the top is always worth the hike. It's incredibly magnificent!! You can see the Rogue Valley for miles...even the freeway. Great for tourists and residents alike.

Fun hike for almost any age. There is an upper and lower Table Rock.

Absolutely the best memories were made on our zip tour! Everything from the start to finish. Our guides were the BEST, so professional but yet so fun! They made sure the zips felt safe and thrilling all at the same time! My daughter even got the "Extended Tour" but she absolutely loved it and probably could of hung out there all day long 😅 my only idea, woild be to offer a punch card of some sort for us locals 😉 we will definitely be going again, See ya again soon Rogue Zipline!

Twinkle toes and champagne poppy were the best! My 2 boys (9 and 11) and I had a great time and loved our guides. They had all the jokes, made us all feel confident and safe and engaged my boys the whole time 💕 just a great experience!

Loved loved loved everything about my first zip line experience. Our 2 guides cliffhanger and the specimen were absolutely wonderful, I was terrified but they both did very well at staying calm, controlled, and super comforting. How they praised every person after every ride was something more people should aspire to be. I felt safe, secure, and trusting of both of these guys! I’d love to return again. Bubba will zip line again ❤️

This is a great place to go to. I'm so impressed with the professionalism of the tour Masters. We never felt unsafe and we had such a great time. It's even more impressive that all the trails are ADA accessible.

We celebrated my friend's 40th birthday here! Everyone had a fantastic time with many belly laughs along the way. Cliffhanger and Toothfairy are the best guides!! Most of us were first-time zipliners and we felt safe and secure throughout the entirety of it! We took the 4pm tour and we're so happy that we did. The views were spectacular!

From Medford, OR and this was my First time zip lining in southern Oregon. Our tour guides Toothfairy/Big-Shrimpin (zipline code names)😂 were awesome and are the PROS! They had the whole group laughing and chatting the entire time. I definitely would come back to do this breathtaking experience again.

What an Experience!!! Gina and Cam mad a Full Send on Fun! From start to finish we were laughing. They were so knowledgeable and made the entire adventure an unforgettable experience! Thank you so much Gina and Cam - Diabetriss

This place is wonderful. The beautiful atmosphere, ample seating, excellent service, lots of parking, clean and well kept restrooms, and very tasty pizza are just a few of the reasons we had such an amazing day of tasting here. The wine is high quality and there is a large selection of whites, reds, and sparkling, along with sangria. The rose garden and pond were very beautiful and the service was welcoming, friendly, and helpful. We will definitely be back and recommend to others as a must see winery in the Applegate.

A nice winery. Interesting blended wines, large selection of offerings. On the style of a CA winery in terms of atmosphere. Looks like a great event venue and they have summer concerts. We enjoyed a nice tasting however we purchased wines from smaller boutique wineries.

Stopped in for wine tasting and I heard their pizza was good. Well, both are good. Thin crust crunchy pizza. All the wines we tasted were well made. Fun stop on this day, not too busy

Spent some family time today for our 50th day and fell in ♡. The winery was just gorgeous. The ambiance, The Food! Amazing! I couldn't say how the wine was but my family seemed to enjoy it Ok the olives, cheese bread, fruit n cheese platter, mushroom pizza EVERYTHING WAS GREAT! WILL BE BACK.

My favorite winery in southern Oregon. Love their building and the grounds. Can't say much about their wines as I don't drink, but do love their pizza and salads, and other food too. And the hay wagon ride in Oct is always a special treat.

So sweeeeet!! Tasty wines and a good time! Freaking delicious pizza and they're able to do a half cheese pizza for my lactose intolerant boyfriend! So good! The wines tasted delicious! And they were so nice

This is my favorite place in Southern Oregon. Why you ask-- The staff is super friendly and will help you decide the best selection of wine for you. The food is amazing from the wood oven pizza, olives, cheese plates and the olive oil and vinegar platters. The views are amazing and they have seats everywhere on the grounds. It's so relaxing you can just take time for you. There's nothing better then bringing great friends here and creating lasting memories.

Highly recommend stopping here for a tasting. Good wines ages much longer than offerings from other wineries in the area. Tasting room is quaint with nice atmosphere. Lots of places to sit outside and enjoy the demonstration vineyard. Very tasty charcuterie tray. We enjoyed the regular tasting flight and the all red tasting flight. Taja was awesome!

Hi, my name is Luke and I am 12 years old and I liked the shark pallet with cheese and cheddar cheese and thought it was a great meal. Definitely go here again five stars.

We visited Edenvale Winery on our way from Oregon to California. I cannot recommend a stop at this exceptional winery enough. The wine (especially the amazing chilled Grenache) and Petite Syrah ) and charcuterie board were sensational. I cannot thank the wine tasting staff ( Marty and Taja ) enough for their professionalism and great personalities. Do not miss this experience. The grounds are beautiful and if you are a Harvest Host fan looking for unique lovely place to stay in a Sprinter, it is a great place to be!!! Moreover, I cannot thank the staff for their generous hospitality and care. Five star all around.

Coming all the way from NJ, I had no idea how amazing Oregon wine country was. Marty made our experience here informed and enjoyable. I can’t get over the views of the outdoor tasting rooms. Currently on a national park trip and this place tops the experiences so far. Favorite wines were the rose and Grenache, both different and exquisite.

Worst experience ever!!! First off, the winery is filthy!!! The seating areas outside are dirty and the grounds are not at all inviting, as so many other great wineries in the valley. The gal tried to swindle me into paying for a glass of Chardonnay that she replaced my Pinot Noir with, after having had one sip and sending it back. I explained that it tasted bad. The Pinot Noir was horrible!! It smelled bad and tasted even worse. I had already paid for it, so obviously she should have provided me with a glass of Chardonnay without charge.The gal was rude and disrespectful toward me. She came outside to collect payment and to tell me there was nothing wrong with the Pinot so she was collecting payment for the Chardonnay. I have never experienced service like this. Embarrassing! Two thumbs down straight across the board. There are so many wonderful wineries around here, don't waste your time at this place. Their wine is horrible and they obviously don't know how to train their team.

Unique delicious wines, pear & “CranPerry” ciders were great, and a fabulous charcuterie board with all the fixin’s. Beautiful views and we enjoyed walking through the beginnings of this year’s vegetable garden. Great spot for an afternoon with the family!

I always have a great experience when at Eden Vale. The service, environment, and wine always have me wanting more. I’ve had events on their beautiful property, and just go there to hang out. It truly is my happy place.

Visited from Colorado for a large event taking place all week. Our group booked out the back part of the venue. We went to a different winery every night for the week and this was my favorite. Beautiful location, on the water. They have live music on certain days of the week. The only issue was the service time. Don't think they had enough staff for the large group that was there, so people were standing in line to order for a while. Other than that, loved it.

This place came highly recommended from a friend of ours who lives in the area. A lovey place to sip on wine. They have ample seating outside and near the creek. We enjoyed several wine flights. The sandwich of the day was delicious. This was a fun stop

It is a beautiful location, just gorgeous, with a wonderful seating area right by the river. The wines are delicious, the food is very good. Basically, it is the perfect place to spend a sunny afternoon sipping rosé, and the kids can just play with rocks by the river. There is a lot of room to accommodate bigger groups, and the scenery is really top notch. So peaceful. Now also with live music on Thursdays.

The atmosphere was great! The barn, crystal clear creek in the grounds, and options were enjoyable. The wine wasn't excellent in our group's opinion, but it was priced a little lower and if you enjoyed one, it was a good value. Felt built more for events and hanging out than high end wine. We still had a great time!

Such a great spot. Beautiful grounds right on the creek and an excellent assortment of very tasty on the spot made wines. The food was charcuterie style, but the spinach artichoke dip we had with our drinks was phenomenal. They encourage picnicking on the grounds as well. I was told they even have live music and food trucks on certain days. I would definitely go again, it was worth the drive....10/10

This winery is fantastic! The wines are scrumptious, from the port to the white wines. The fig jam is insanely good, the charcuterie is to die for, and the coconut soup is a rare treat. It's just a wonderful winery. The staff are gracious and charming. They also sell cute kitschy items and we wanted one of everything! They have both inside and outside seating plus seating down by the river. Masks no longer required!!

Red Lily Vineyards are nestled in the Applegate in Southern Oregon. The atmosphere is casual and very comfortable. If you visit, make sure to try the Tempranillo. Delicious.

This is an awesome find and I highly recommend going. You'll probably won't see anything like it in your life and it's a very humbling experience to go through, I'm very grateful it's even a tour, and the kids liked it also! It was a mile hike underground but they did awesome and it wasn't really too cold like we expected

We have a great time here. The cave tour is really cool and worth the money. The guide for our tour was friendly, knowledgeable and did a great job. The tour group was small enough that everyone could easily see and hear the guide. The tour is 90 minutes and has a lot of walking on uneven surfaces and up quite a few stairs. This is not for small children or anyone with walking difficulties. The different formations and features are awesome to see up close. I would recommend an appointment but they also save quite a few spots for same day walk in. We will definitely go back some time.

Absolutely amazing experience! The caves are surreal with twisting marble formations, hidden chambers, and fascinating geology. The park rangers were incredibly knowledgeable and brought the whole underground journey to life with their passion and storytelling. The drive to the monument is stunning, winding through lush forested hills. It’s a bit of a trek to get there, but 100% worth it even if you're coming from hours away. Pro tip: Arrive early! The visitor center opens at 8:30 AM, but you’ll want to be there by 7:45 AM to get in line for tour tickets. Tours are limited and often sell out fast, especially in summer. If you’re in southern Oregon, don’t skip this. It’s a true hidden gem and a perfect mix of nature, science, and awe.

Aug 2025 My 3rd time here 1st time for my wife. I told her it was a nice level walk! I guess my memory sucks (it had been 25 years since the last tour). There are plenty of stairs and steps! She still loved the tour, and still loves me though. Awesome cave. Our guide showed us a device for recording bats flying through. Therefore the Bat Phone really does exist! The cool colors in some of the photos are a trick the phone did. There is a combinations of LED and incandescent lights that plays hell with the white balance. Actual colors are cave gray as in the other images.

We had the best time on our guided tour through the caves. Our tour guide was very pleasant and gave usany fun facts about the caves. The drive up to the caves is windy but not too long. Make sure to pack a sweater as the caves are very cold even though it was 90° outside of them.

One of the best cave tours I’ve done in a long time. The park Rangers were very knowledgeable and the hike was really fun. You do walk up a lot of steps and you have to duck under some rock formations, but it’s a really great experience.

Highly recommend the Oregon Caves and taking a tour. We took our three kids and spent Almsot two hours underground during our tour. A beautiful spot, worth the drive.

I took my two sons rafting for the first time in 2015. We went with another family and I surprised my boys. They were so thrilled. That was one event that they’ll never forget and I was mom of the year for that! Even though it was near 100° we could not tell. Every 30 minutes my boys got braver and braver and they really looked up to our tour guide. We were extremely well taken care of and my boys still talk about the beaver mustard that was served on the delicious turkey sandwiches. We still can’t figure out why a simple turkey sandwich with sides was the best lunch we ever had! Absolutely can’t wait to go again!!! They really cater to your experience level. That was the best day ever!

Our company planned a team building weekend in Cave Junction including Tree Houses and a rafting trip, and Rael and Liquid Expeditions surpassed all exceptions. Professional, timely, knowledgeable, personable...it was great. The river was beautiful, the equipment was top notch, and everyone felt like they had a full experience for what the river could provide. We swam, rowed, floated, jumped off cliffs, ate a great lunch (best mustard ever!), saw wildlife, learned about the history of the land, and also relaxed. Nothing but positive things to say about our trip.

Had an AWESOME experience! When my phobiatic Wife Karmen made reservations as part of a graduation gift for our 14 yr old grandson Hilkiah (and tagging along, his 7 yr old sister and myself, and first time ever white water rafting for all 3 of them) Rael helped her decide to go for it, reassuring her that she wouldn't have to worry, that it was going to be a safe and enjoyable experience for everyone. True to his word, everyone had a Great time! Beautiful scenic river. Rael and his assistant Matt were were extremely nice, patient, knowledgeable and professional. We were staying at the Out n About Treehouse resort for the first time of which our grandson was so excited to experience but during the rafting, he said that the rafting was the highlight of his trip! Thanks Rael and Matt for such an AWESOME and memorable experience! Lauro and Karmen Trias

We had a fantastic trip down the Klamath River with our guides Rael and Jenna. They were professional, fun, and I felt my family was safe from beginning to end. I would definitely recommend booking a trip with this company.

Rail and Matt do a great job tailoring your adventure to your what you want or what you can handle. Three young kids and one adult, we had a blast. You can not go wrong with these guys. I doubt anyone knows the river better. Thanks guys!

The guide really know the river backwards and forwards . We found frog tadpoles, blackberries, and lots of diffenent birds. Kids and adults all had blast.

Great rafting trip down the Kilamath...highly recommend them! So much fun....knowledgeable....top notch ....experienced guides...that make you feel safe and instantly like your with family...can not say enough!
