Local Attractions

What to do and what to see.

Newberg and Surrounding Areas

At the end of our lane, only a short walk away, is an Award-Winning micro brewery! Long Brewing features seven different ales and private tours are available with the brewer.

An amazing assortment of beautiful Wineries start within a half mile of our location and many even have tasting rooms located in downtown Newberg as well as at their vineyard facilities (call ahead because not all vineyards have a tasting room on location). There are also wineries located in the nearby towns of Dundee, Carlton and McMinnville as well as others. Just ask Harold or Ian for a list and directions to the area wineries.

The neighboring town of McMinnville, 30 minutes away, boasts the Evergreen Aviation and Space Museum where Howard Hughes famous plane, the Spruce Goose, is located. The Evergreen complex also includes a huge adjoining water park that the kids will love (and the adults too)!

Some other fun activities and destinations nearby await you:

And of course one can’t forget the beach and all the lovely little coastal towns up and down the shoreline. The drive out is under 2 hours and an entire day could be had visiting art galleries, walking along the shore, whale watching and stopping at the many fabulous seafood eateries.
