Though only 18 miles inland from the coast, the half-hour drive to Chetco River Inn transports you to another world, a place where the lulling sound of river rushing over stone calms the soul. For kicking back and relaxing, you can’t imagine a more appropriate spot. To those seeking outdoor activity, the Inn’s thirty-five acres offer bird watching, fishing, swimming, and hiking.
The pattern of a day at the Chetco River Inn alternates between solitude and sociability. After a few hours of reading or river watching, it’s good to take a hike or share some deck time with other guests. People wanting to explore the coast can easily go to Brookings, Harris, or Whaleshead beaches, Boardman State Park, or Cape Sebastian.
Each season at the inn has its unique qualities. Spring brings a profusion of flowers in Sandra’s garden, and the return of migrating birds. Summer offers a chance to escape the coastal fog for a swim in the river, or to hike the pristine Kalmiopsis Wilderness. In the fall, maples add a touch or orange, and you might glimpse a river otter or great blue heron.
Winter brings the long, soaking rainstorms for which the Northwest is well known. These are good times to sit by the fire and just relax. Even in winter, however, brilliantly warm and sunny days result from a peculiar weather phenomenon known as the "Chetco Effect". As a guest at the Chetco River Inn, you will find yourself in the center of an outdoor recreation paradise. Whether you’re traveling for business, honeymoon, or a romantic weekend getaway, Chetco River Inn Bed and Breakfast will be perfect for you!
Property amenities:
Lodge is in a very private area. The natural environment comes in thru its many windows looking out on the river, gardens, and wooded acres. The rooms are designed for one or two people, complete with comfortable down covered beds and private bathroom. A large main room with fireplace, attractive seating area, dining, and library loft is available for all.
Outdoor covered porch and firepit adds to the enjoyment. The lodge receives high rating for its food featuring NorthWest cusine. This is an opportunity to fish alone maybe on a guided drift boat trip, bring your favorite person to fish with or wait for you at the inn, or to plan that fishing trip with a group of friends. The inn is a special place for small groups.
Nearby attractions and activities:
During your stay at the Chetco River Inn, you'll have opportunity to participate in a wide variety of activities. From shopping to fishing, golf (at the new Salmon Run golf course) to beachcombing, you're sure to find plenty of both relaxing and exciting ways to fill your visit to the Southern Oregon Coast!
Summer is an ideal time to relax in privacy working on your tan while listening to the soothing sounds of the Chetco River. You can fish in the fall for salmon, or in the winter for steelhead. As our guest, you have access to your very own private river bar, just a stone's throw from the front door. You will very likely see deer walking through the grounds. Occasionally, black bears and elk are sighted in the vicinity.
The months of May to October are ideal for swimming and hiking. Other diversions include horseshoes, darts, and just sitting around relaxing. Wildlife is abundant around the Inn, and many guests enjoy bird-watching (hummingbirds are common), or watching Grey Squirrels play in the fragrant Myrtlewood grove.
Winter often brings spectacular storms. Guests stay warm and dry inside by the crackling fire, snuggling in warm blankets and sipping hot drinks. In the large great room you will find games, books, comfortable furniture, and a scenic view from the inviting common room.
Venture into the coastal community of Brookings-Harbor to bask in the remarkably warm breezes of Oregon's "Banana Belt". For a taste of the arts, stroll through a few of the many hidden art or antique galleries in the area, or take in a play at the Performing Arts Center.
Brookings is a nature-lover's Paradise, featuring beaches, mountains, and the wild and scenic Chetco River. Numerous activities await within a short journey from the Inn -- rafting, canoeing, kayaking, swimming, golfing (at the new Salmon Run golf course), surfing and windsurfing.
Spring brings the Azalea Parade and Festival (memorial weekend) and festivities galore. You may choose to participate in the annual Kite Festival (end of July).
