We loved our stay at the Rogue Retreat at the Galice Resort for a family reunion. The home was amazing, equipped with everything we needed. We spent a lot of time on the huge deck, grilling and playing games. We also enjoyed the live music and food trucks in the evening. Such an awesome place!!

Family Reunion

We had an incredible stay at the Rogue Retreat with our large family of 18 members. The home accommodated everyone comfortably, thanks to its numerous bedrooms and beds, making it easy for each of us to find a cozy spot. The house is in excellent condition—clean, well-maintained, and thoughtfully stocked with all the household items we needed, which made our stay truly effortless.The large family room was perfect for gathering, sharing meals, and creating memories together. Additionally, the massive deck provided fantastic outdoor space where we enjoyed the beautiful nature and prove space for a BBQ gathering of about 40 people. The location was conveniently located close to Grants Pass, but far enough down the Rogue River to provide space and isolation away from distractions. The overall condition and amenities of the house exceeded our expectations.We highly recommend Rogue Retreat for anyone looking for a spacious, comfortable, and well-equipped home away from home. We look forward to returning!

Rafting Getaway

My group had an amazing time staying at the Galice Resort. The location was super convenient for rafting. The live music in the evenings was so fun, and the house had plenty of space for 12 ladies! The house had all the necessities you’ll need.
