This place is great. Cabins are super cute, but it's the balcony and the view (and the staff) that make this place a must visit. Beware, the restaurant (with yummy food) closes at 8pm. Next time we'll come for more than one night!

Oregon Gem

Our stay was amazing. I highly recommend this gem for a getaway trip. The cleanliness and maintenance was impressive. Great small touches and we did three hikes the next day to two beautiful waterfalls and a hot springs.

Steamboat Inn is a lovely property on the Umpqua River. We stayed in a cabin room right on the river. It was spacious and the balcony a restful place to read and watch the river. The balcony is shared with others in cabin rooms but set up so that each room has its own chairs and space. Note that there is no TV and even our phone network did not work. The food at the on-site restaurant was absolutely fantastic. We stayed 3 nights and ate there every evening. The steelhead was done to perfection as were the daily specials. Plus, you can have dinner (lunch or breakfast) on the outside patio with the river nearby. The Inn is perfectly situated to see the waterfalls along the Umpqua highway, and it's an easy drive to Crater Lake. It's not fancy but has enormous character. Best place we've stayed in a long time.

I had known about Steamboat Inn for years since my wife attended several retreats here, but I'd never stayed there until now. It was amazing: the flowers in full bloom, the cool breeze out on the deck outside our cabin, the fantastic dinner menu, the beautiful river and hillside. The owner, Melinda, was a first rate host and made all of us feel like family. I will definitely come back here often since it's such a beautiful location and so close to hiking and waterfalls.

One of the greatest views in the Umpqua region with a very wide and lively stream at the backyard of the property. The sound of river can be heard in the cabin and, with no wifi or tv in the room, it is perfect place for digital detox (restaurant area has wifi). Food was pretty great (ravioli pasta is phenomenal). To our disappointment, the library was closed due to staff shortage. A bar is operation inside the library in normal times.

The Steamboat Inn is an amazing place to stay the North Umpqua River. The staff is amazing and the restaurant is superior. Our room was great with a shared deck overlooking the N. Umpqua River. The room is quaint and wall cared for. It is clean with lots of storage and a comfortable bed and great shower. This is a destination stay as you are on an isolated section of the river. There is fishing, great hiking, waterfalls and if you like solitude. We loved our stay here and will return.

Beautiful setting. Lovely grounds. Excellent staff. There’s pros and cons about the lack of connectivity, but in this day and age I would prefer at least either cell phone service or WiFi in the cabins. Few of us have the luxury of not needing to be available to communicate with our colleagues.

February The Wrong Time of Year for Steamboat

We were looking forward to seeing the North Umpqua and doing some hiking and fishing. The weather was pretty cooperative and mild for Oregon in February, but it wasn't the best trip: 1. The Inn was closed for the season. We reserved a cabin but didn't realize that ALL services would not be available. They mentioned their main dining room being closed but it could be clearer that food of any kind would not be available. 2. The gift shop was closed for inventory, so even snacks could not be purchased. The closest market and dining options were 20 miles away. And very limited. 3. Sadly, the North Umpqua hiking trails were mainly closed do to blow down and landslides from the burns of a couple of years. It's such a gorgeous place and that was a huge disappointment. Also, the Closest Ranger Station was closed during the week. Not the best. 4. The cabin we stayed in was nice, modern and faced the Umpqua River. But no wifi. No internet. Thankfully we didn't bring the kids along...they would have rebelled! And no DVD player. It could be that the Inn itself had those services but it was closed. Next time, we'll plan a better time to go. It's worth it for the scenery and the area is supposed to be top notch for fishing. And proximity to Crater Lake is a plus if you've never been. FYI: Diamond Lake is close by and has a people mover and sliding hill to keep kids entertained.
