Top South Central Hotel Reviews

Oregon Garden Resort

10/10 Excellent

"This is a wonderful gracious older inn with the feeling of a special place in Europe. The gardens next door were starting to show off their fall foliage. Staff was kind and helpful. The room units are spacious with a fireplace and individual enclosed deck. The room was sparkling clean with generous amenities. I wanted to stay longer!"
