Oregon Garden Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful hotel and very helpful staff. The only disappointment was that the coffee maker didn’t work. The garden that is free to enter was lovely!"

Best Western Plus Mill Creek Inn

8/10 Good

"Very pleasant stay for what we needed. Kid friendly and the staff were helpful. It was a pleasant surprise to find out the breakfast was offered at Denny’s restaurant located beside the hotel. The pool was large and we really enjoyed the shallow pool that they had beside the main pool. Bonus feature was that they had a sauna available for use as well."
