Surrounded By Nature And Good Views
The Owl’s Nest Inn combines rustic charm with modern comforts. Situated at the end of a cul-de-sac, the property is bordered by hundreds of acres of woods, creating a serene, private atmosphere. Wander the property and you’ll find over thirty fruit trees and five varieties of berries. Guests are encouraged to savor the fresh, sun-ripened fruits or simply relax on the expansive lawn and take in the breathtaking views of the Willamette Valley.
Days with clear skies reveal vistas stretching past Salem, 30 miles to the south.
Evening visitors can soak in the two-person hot tub, stargaze from the fire pit, or toast marshmallows as the valley’s twinkling lights add a touch of magic to the night.
Comfortable And Cozy
The King Room offers a spacious retreat with westward views perfect for catching the sunset. Designed for comfort, this L-shaped room features Mission-style furnishings, a cozy TV nook, a mini-fridge, a microwave, and a coffee maker. The adjacent bathroom is a modern oasis with a skylight, glass doors, a dual showerhead, and a fold-down seat for ultimate relaxation.
When it’s time to settle in, guests are greeted with a complimentary bottle of Oregon wine alongside cheese and crackers, setting the tone for a restful stay.
Breakfast Worth Waking Up For
Mornings at The Owl’s Nest Inn are a treat. The hosts offer up classic options like eggs, bacon, and French toast, as well as heartier choices like steel-cut oatmeal, pancakes, or tasty beer-battered waffles. The secret ingredient (Black Butte Porter) gives the waffles a fluffy texture and rich flavor without a trace of alcohol.
Special dietary needs? No problem! The inn’s hosts are happy to accommodate you with advance notice.
Explore Beyond The Inn
Situated in the heart of Oregon wine country, The Owl’s Nest Inn is ideally located for wine enthusiasts. The Willamette Valley boasts a wealth of vineyards, with many offering tasting rooms just minutes away in Newberg, Dundee, Carlton, and McMinnville. Beyond wine, a short walk from the inn leads to an award-winning microbrewery, offering private tours and seven unique ales to sample.
- McMinnville - 30 Minutes Away
- The inn’s location makes it easy to explore the best of the region. History buffs can visit McMinnville’s Evergreen Aviation and Space Museum, home to the legendary Spruce Goose, or for some family fun take the kids to the Wings And Waves Waterpark where they can take a slide out of a plane on the roof down into the pool. Thrill-seekers might try hot air ballooning over the valley's vineyards or a glider ride in McMinnville.
- Nearby Hiking - 16 Minutes Away
- For a slower pace, the tranquil Trappist Abbey hiking trails offer a serene escape and a nice walk through the woods.
- Explore The Coast - An Hour And A Half Away
- Lincoln City on the Oregon coast beckons with sandy beaches, art galleries, cool little shops and candy stores and whale-watching opportunities.
- Portland - 45 Minutes Away

An ideal stay at the inn might last several days. One day could be spent exploring nearby wineries and exploring local fine dining options, while the next is spent in McMinnville at the space museum and waterpark. Going to Lincoln City to relax and explore the beach shops will take a day, and exploring two of the above locations in Portland will take a day. There's so many incredible things to do and see nearby.
