Wine Country Gem in downtown McMinnville. Walk to Wineries & Restaurants!

Welcome to our Wine Country Gem in downtown McMinnville!! This vintage 1930s bungalow was renovated in 2023 from top to bottom to preserve its charming character with modern upgrades and amenities. Everything in the bungalow is brand new! The open concept floorplan is perfect for entertaining with two sets of French doors leading out to a spacious, all season covered porch that is a stones throw away from Flag & Wire Coffee Roasters, the Grain Station Brewery and Restaurant, Alpine Crossing and Kitchen, Eyrie Vineyards, Mac Market and so much more. The spacious living room features gorgeous art from the Erin Hanson gallery, a large sofa, loveseat and accent chair and a fabulous fireplace. The beautiful designer kitchen is fully equipped with high end appliances, including a gas stove and oven, luxurious Quartz countertops and a farmhouse sink. The 2 bedroom, 1 1/2 bath bungalow also features designer tile and lighting, shiplap accent walls, luxury wood plank flooring, and central heating and air conditioning. When you stay at our Wine Country Gem, you don't have to compromise on style, charm, location or convenience!!!

LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION!
The bungalow is conveniently located in the 'Granary District | Winery Row' neighborhood of downtown McMinnville. It has a Walk Score of 92, which means it's a Walkers Paradise within steps of tasting rooms, coffee roasters, breweries, dining and entertainment.

Our stylish and classy bungalow is directly across the street from our very popular tiny house hotel, The Boutique Retreat. The bungalow faces Alpine Avenue, which is a pedestrian friendly street that was redeveloped by the City to promote festivals and community events. It is in a light industrial, arts & crafts district that has edible landscaping, garden boxes, murals and public art. Our neighbors include wine makers, brewers, bakers, coffee roasters, restaurants and entertainment venues.

McMinnville is considered the 'heart' of the Oregon Wine Country with over 17 tasting rooms and a beautiful, historic downtown that has been featured in numerous publications as one of the best wine country towns in the USA and one of the top places to visit in the world by Time Magazine (March 2023)! The Willamette Wine Country has over 700 wineries to explore so there are endless opportunities to plan an amazing and memorable wine country getaway.

With a Walk Score of 92 (a Walker's Paradise), our guests can have fun visiting wineries and when they get back to the bungalow, they can park the car and easily travel on foot to one of the many local tasting rooms, breweries or restaurants.

McMinnville embraces the arts and live music so you can often find musicians playing along the streets and in the tasting rooms or brew pubs. We affectionately refer to McMinnville as 'Disneyland for Adults'. It truly is a paradise for wine enthusiasts and the natural beauty of Oregon is unparalleled.

Located about an hour from Portland and an hour from the Oregon Coast, it is perfectly situated to plan and explore other outdoor adventures. There are so many excellent choices, the hardest decision to make is how much fun you can fit in to your vacation!
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 1.5 bathrooms, and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a coffee maker. Change of towels is available on request.

We stayed in this cute, beautifully renovated home while attending a family wedding. It was within walking distance of downtown and provided the perfect place for our family to gather. The home was not only beautifully decorated, but also incredibly functional and thoughtfully designed—there wasn’t a single thing we needed that wasn’t already provided.We especially enjoyed having breakfast and dinner on the front porch. The neighborhood was peaceful and quiet, even though the house is conveniently located on a side street near downtown. Communication with the host was prompt, clear, and straightforward. We would absolutely stay here again when visiting Oregon wine country!
