The perfect couples retreat! The private balcony overlooking the Willamette river was truly special. We appreciated the quiet room, the kitchenette, the large shower and bathroom, and the free EV charging. The private hot tub was an added bonus! Hope to take advantage of the free bikes next time. I highly recommend it for anyone visiting wine country. This is a unique spot.
