Appletree Guesthouse (amidst Oregon wine country)

Appletree Guesthouse is an 800 square-foot “home away from home”. It sits nestled in the forested hills of Southwest Eugene, Oregon surrounded by fine Willamette Valley wineries.

We strive to accommodate special needs, dietary restrictions, and other special requests (eg: anniversaries and birthday surprises).

Our desire is to serve you well by “Each of (us) using whatever gifts (we) have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace in its various forms.” 1 Peter 4:10
The space
Appletree Guesthouse is located on a working family farm, adjacent to a main house (listed separately as Château De Appletree) where our family of 10 lives, works, and plays. You may see children out collecting eggs, walking dogs, or tending to the sheep.

🐑 We want our guests to enjoy all that we have to offer, so please request if you want to pet any of the animals, or walk the field. We have Katahdin hair sheep in the field who are very smart (as far as sheep go) and will escape if any gates are left open, so please be aware if entering the field.

🐇🐩 🐓We have fiber rabbits, show dogs, and chickens as well. So please take note, that you may hear the occasional farm sound, or distant dog bark. We try our best to keep these noises to a minimum, and hush them as soon as possible. Although surrounded by possible busyness on the outside, Appletree Guesthouse has a wonderful atmosphere of relaxation and calm.

The interior has added touches to make your stay enjoyable, and relaxing. We have a coffee/tea bar and drinks in the fridge for your enjoyment. There is a Traeger grill on the back deck, loaded with pellets and ready to go, and basic spices, oil, and butter in the kitchenette. Each room has a TV. Please take note that our kitchenette does not have a permanent stove/oven, but we have provided a portable double hot-plate that is stored underneath the counter, a toaster oven, a toaster, and a mini microwave so that all cooking needs are met.

We’ve strived to choose the most comfortable mattresses, and bedding, with plenty of pillows and extra blankets as well. There is no AC in the unit, but it stays cool under the trees even on hot days (which in this part of Oregon are between June-Sept). There are individual space heaters in each room, and fans for the hot days.
Guest access
Guests staying in Appletree Guesthouse are asked to NOT enter the main house, or main deck area, unless there is a communication need or are invited to.

Upon request, a laundry area can be used through the side of the MAIN HOUSE, but upon entering the laundry area we ask that guests not pass the divider.

Walking the property is OK. The “campground area” at the top of the property is a shared space with the MAIN HOUSE, which includes the fire pit, hammock, and benches/chairs. Appletree Guesthouse has its own driveway, parking area, and walkway, which allows for total separation from other guests.
Other things to note
