About this property

Applegate mineral bath seekers.
Two claw foot soaking tubs in private room with magnificent views to enjoy while you heal your mind and body. The owners have made extensive efforts to minimize the sulfur odor in the bathrooms while protecting the healthful qualities they desired from the baths. R O treated water and ice available in the main house as well as bottled water.
Multi Family property. Two can stay in the main cabin or bring the family and add them to the bunk house sleeps 7.

Absolutely a one of a kind vacation rental. Located on five acres in the heart of the Applegate River wine country. This property offers many advantages, is situated in a pastoral setting and set back from the road for maximum privacy. The river with swimming hole just across the road at Cantrall Buckley Park. Approximately 10 minutes to Jacksonville and all of the Rogue River activities making this a great location for family fun or just refuge from the stress of life. Book today.

There is a keypad on the doors, we will use the last four digits of your phone number used in the reservation for your code unless otherwise instructed.

I encourage guests to contact me for any needs they have. There is nothing more frustrating than to be away from home and not able to work the television or A/C etc.

It's is a country neighborhood, with some distance between you and neighbors. However someone will always lend you a helping hand. You are just minutes from at least 4 vineyards, right across the road from the Applegate River and Cantral Buckley Park. 15 minutes to Applegate Lake. 5 minutes to Ruch for a stop at the market, a meal at local Cafe' or church on Sunday.

Definitely need a vehicle in this area, no public transportation.

This property has a mineral well, mainly sulfur. great for your skin and hair, but has an odor. The owners bought it specifically for the health benefits it has. Note the soaking tubs are like many hot springs people seek out. There is drinking water there for you. It is safe to drink, but not easy to get down.
Must be at least 25 years of age to book.
We ask that you do not have outside fires on the property.

Relaxing retreat!

Our family went and enjoyed this wonderful property. Very relaxing and they had everthing we needed or forgot to bring. The sulfur smell was strong as other reviews stated but we were able to have a fun time and forgot about it.

Nice place

Everything was as expected and nice overall! I don't think we will go again as the main draw was the hotspring soaker tubs. The heater was out for the room and only half of the adorable 2 claw foot soak tubs filled with hot water. We tried boiling water on the stove but the room was so cold that it made it impossible to get enough hot water before the water in the tub was cold. 2 hours I finally gave up. I did get a morning soak but no doubles in the winter! The owner was nice and everything was overall good. Just need a good water heater for winter travelers!

Peace and Quiet

Nice and quiet location with big yard, comfortable beds and all the amenities at hand. One bad point is the sulfur smell in the water but bottled water is provided.

Sulfur & Spiders

This is a difficult review for me, since it is my first negative review. We had such high hopes for this place. The location is great, the house had plenty of room & the outside area was amazing along with the views. However when we arrived, we quickly noticed that other than the most used areas the house was dirty (window seals, blinds, laundry room & under some beds) as well as it was infested with spiders. There were spider webs & spiders in every room, including just above bunk beds which didn’t help my kids get that warm and fuzzy feeling going to sleep, even after I helped clean the area. Frankly – our group ended up with several spider bites & at one point - one ran across my chest while I was trying to go to sleep. Fortunately, I smooshed him but it also didn’t help the going to sleep process. Another negative for this place is the sulfur smell associated to all water sources for the house. I should have read the previous reviews closer since I thought the smell would be isolated to the mineral bath, but all water sources in the house (both sides) had a strong sulfur smell. To a point, most of us didn’t shower or only showered once while we were there. Using the washing machine also made the main area smell for an extended period of time. In general using showers the smell didn’t stick around for long, and when I showered I don’t think I smelt like sulfur, or what my kids called a fart smell, but my kids didn’t like it and it was strong enough for my one visitor to step outside to talk versus inside. Lastly – they had a handy man working on the property about 4 days during our visit. This is normally fine, given the property is large and I understand some maintenance needs to happen (watering, trimming, etc…) but it was always at about 7:30am and would always wake our kids.
