The Arden Forest Inn is now a regular stop on our annual trip through Oregon. We originally booked it because it looked pretty and had a pool (Ashland can get very hot in the summer). On arriving, the setting and pool were was even nicer than the pictures. The large backyard is a beautiful and peaceful place to relax and perhaps sip a glass of wine.
The rooms are very nice and always spotless. The location is quiet - great for sleeping and relaxing during the day. Breakfast is always delicious, although seldom low-calorie (you can request an alternative). Corbett and Bill (the co-owners) are always there to stimulate conversation at breakfast and never fail to hold strong opinions about the plays at the Shakespeare Festival. With rare exception, we've enjoyed meeting the other guests, many of whom are regulars like us.
The Festival is walkable (a little more than 1/2 mile away) and so we always walk to the plays.
